Hoo boy. What a god damned week. Thankfully, there were a ton of new and exciting comics this week, to help me deal with the near crippling depression and misanthropy. And if you’re reading this, I’m also probably on my way to the nearest LEGO store to buy the X-Mansion set. So I’m coping.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Superman #1 because it’s another banger. All of these Absolute books have knocked it out of the park!

Meanwhile, uh, I’m mostly holding on by a thread here. I’m playing through Baldur’s Gate 3 again these days. It’s still a fun game, and a lot of patches have come out in the past year to add more to the game that it didn’t have when I played on release. The new season of Arcane has started. The Penguin finale should be awesome. And I’m also collecting all of Chip Zdarsky’s Daredevil run into a big tpb pile to read one of these days. So I’m coping well in my usual ways.

Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #1, Batgirl #1, Batman #154, The Ultimates #6, X-Factor #4 and X-Men #7.
