Dear universe
If I have to live in a dystopia can it at least be a cool one where me and my friends have secret superpowers and live in a cool cyberpunk city rather than the evil but somehow boring one we are currently getting?
ANDOR
S2 | E3
“Harvest”
This is THE one. The turning point. The “Oh that’s what i’m here for” moment. Even more so and more importantly than S1E3, S2E3 feels like Andor finding it’s focus for what it wants to be and those final 10 minutes felt like one of the biggest thrills i’ve ever had with this show. Editing was incredible, the events themselves were something else entirely.
To start. And to highlight the star of S2, Mon Mothma’s side of things is pure fucking greatness. The devastation of trying to do the right thing for her daughter that Mon never received herself and it being denied is a genuine hard watch. But what follows with Mon finally letting loose through that Niamos dance sequence is top 5 moments of this entire show. It’s absolutely incredible and holy shit it’s addictive because it just refuses to leave my mind. There’s also one specific shot of her in this episode that looks like a literal painting come to life and once again it refuses to leave my mind. Which seems to be a constant theme.
The Mina-Rau side of things with Bix and Co was pretty smooth sailing as a narrative hook, I enjoyed it but wasn’t exactly dying to see it play out and that pretty much flipped right here. There’s such an intensity everytime it’s showcased and seeing Bix finally get a slice of payback for the lifetime of tragedy she’s constantly put through was unbelievably satisfying. There’s barely been a second where she’s existed with any level of normality and I think they executed it at the perfect time where it doesn’t become overbearing. Been begging for Adria Arjona to get a real spotlight in this role and hopefully this is that step taken to get there.
Definitely feels like the episode that establishes every character back onto the board for the rest of the season. There’s some perspective that I felt were underutilised in this first arc but i’ve seen enough of Andor to know there’s zero reason to ever doubt it. This is the high point I was anticipating and it hit me at 100MPH.
And I can’t forget, RIP to Brasso. You were the man. Genuinely gonna miss his presence.

Happy 85th to the sensational WONDER WOMAN!
Forever a foundational figure in the tapestry of the DCU, and someone I'm always thrilled to write. So excited for what Weezie and Stephanie do with the Themysciran lore next year!
Here's our WW from DEATH METAL, as drawn by @KaelNgu!
Stephanie Williams and artist Elena Casagrande will take over next for six issues next in 2027!
"Diana has my whole heart, so getting to come back to her world after Wonder Woman and Matriarch feels like coming home, only this time with a longer runway. Six issues gives me room to really sit with Diana, to let her be fierce and funny and compassionate all at once, and to let the story breathe in a way I’m so excited for readers to experience. Plus, I finally get to work in the Nubia team-up I’ve been wanting to tell for a long time, but this time they won’t be going to Las Vegas.”

DC Comics has announced that 2027 is The Year of Wonder!
Louise Simonson and Cian Tormey will do a 4 part story that promises major changes for Diana and the Amazons. Diana attempts to overturn the Amazon Safety Act, which has prevented her sisters from returning to Man’s World. But after everything the Amazons have endured, convincing them to return may prove more difficult than changing the law itself.
The arc will also bring Lois Lane into the action, along with Granny Goodness and her Female Furies.

Wonder Woman can take on gods, monsters, and just about anything the universe throws at her. But one of her greatest strengths has always been her ability to see the humanity in people who have forgotten how to see it in themselves. Happy 85th anniversary, Diana. She made her first comic appearance in ALL-STAR COMICS #8, written by William Moulton Marston, with pencils and art by H.G. Peter. @DCWonderWoman@DCOfficial
HAPPY WONDER WOMAN DAY EVERYONE!!!!!
Today is the 85th anniversary for the greatest character in all of fiction!!!
I don't know where I'd be in my life without her
Her hope, compassion and dedication to truth is truly awe inspiring.
To celebrate pls go check out her comics!!!
Have you ever been to Yavin?
Want a little preview of where #FromtheAshes - the finale to the #StarWars#ReignoftheEmpire trilogy is headed?
(didn't quite work out to have this revealed at NYCC)
@deanpb_author Maximum Ride
I loved that series (although I think it should have ended after book 5). The film was the worst film I'v ever seen, only covered half the book, did it badly and looked like it had a budget of 50p
