Friday Comic-Book: Captain American and the Falcon #171

Will Browns fans ever recover from last Sunday's "performance"? The pride of lake Erie beaten, nay dominated, by a battered, bandaged Steelers squad led to victory by a 3rd string QB who was released in the pre-season? 

Pittsburgh, to their coach's credit, demonstrated what it means to be a football team; Cleveland, led, I guess, by our coach, illustrated, once again, that the Browns are still the Browns until proven otherwise.

It wouldn't be surprising to see some of Cleveland's players quit (at least mentally) during this week's contest against the Bengals. Maybe asking for the team to just be better than last year was too much.

Enjoy your weekend!

Friday Comic Booker: Fantastic Four #51

Joker movie Joaquin Phoenix pencil

The Joker movie is damn good, very disturbing and definitely not for children.

Phoenix absolutely fantastic at villain humanization. 

Marvel should follow this example and make an R-rated Dr. Doom movie.

Mr R Tuesday Special: Game of Thrones Arya and Sansa

These costumes have led to many a pencil's death, lol.

Enjoy your turkey day!

Friday Comic Booker Batman Killing Joke Auction scrawl

Scrawled for the Kalahari's ESOP Foundation auction. 

Winner personalized it by inserting whoever's caricature they wanted into the camera lens and word balloon (Leo, of course), plus they strolled off with some delicious Dietsch chocolate-covered pretzels, Wolfie's gourmet nuts and Speedway gas gift cards (all Findlay, OHIO companies). :) 

Fun stuff raising money for employee ownership - go ESOPs!

In a separate, somber note, it's difficult to root for the Brownies after witnessing last Thursday's solid performance ruined by one awful, thoughtless, emotional, vicious helmet swing. Those who bleed orange, like me, hate the Steelers, but nowhere close to that much. Do we deserve to lose to the Dolphins? 

Enjoy your weekend! 

Mr R Monday Special: Phoebe Waller-Bridge Fleabag

Amazon's Fleabag is a great show; Waller-Bridge is a super-nova
brilliant writer, comedian and actor. 

Enjoyed the first season more than the second because
it's funnier, fresher and less poignant. 

Still, it's all great and highly recommended, but NOT for kids.

Bob Odenkirk, Better Call Saul pencil

Have yet to watch El Camino on NetFlix (although who doesn't love the car-truck or is it a truck-car? Who cares because it's 100% awesome).

Enjoy your day!
