HOORAY! Christopher J. Priest’s funniest creation, by far!

Captain-2

This means that BOTH “Sherlock” leads are now Marvel characters! Geeks rule, forever! ๐Ÿ™‚

One gamillion days to “Captain America: Civil War,” so I read stuff like this and this (I even saw it before Disneyย got it yankedย off of YouTube!) and this and this andย this and wait.

Christopher James Priest Talks About His Time As The Writer Of Marvel’s “Black Panther”

panthericonic2

My favorite comicbook author not named Grant Morrison ๐Ÿ™‚ talks about his run–my all-time favorite in the 49 years of the character’s existence.ย Priest’s run that made me a “Black Panther” fan! I no longer collect comics, but I will make an exception for this Priest BP collection!

(And I want to point out that what Priestย saysย in Part Oneย is what I say in my chapter of “Ages of the Avengers.”)

Ta-Nehisi Coates has his work cut out for him! But I’m sure heย knows that!

And Now, The Geek News:

Okay, THIS would be the geek news of the month

Batman

(with a special note of this grievous wrong “writed” ๐Ÿ™‚ )

but, of course, it was superceded by this journalistic-superhero stream crossing!

BP Coates

Coates is one of the greatest nonfiction writers of my generation, but he is a little too, uh, um,ย mainstream and American for me, so I’m interested to see if fantasy will allow him to really open up, as it were. Marvel’s Black Panther will be the perfect vehicle for that.
