Another year gone! THANKS, Saswat!

I’m celebrating early for Post 601!

Thanks to/for Saswat, since without him there’d be NONE.

Woo-Woo! Two years and counting!

Thanks again, Saswat!

…..but when Saswat asked me to think about this, I couldn’t resist.

Hello. I’m Todd Steven Burroughs, your host. This blog will do what blogs do: give you a running thread of my public (sub)conscious. So that means lots of talk about Black media, superhero comicbooks, Black superheroes, superhero movies and superhero cartoons, Doctor Who (old and new), Star Trek, and whatever else crosses my info-addled mind that consistently demands release.

This is a test. For the next 60 seconds………..
