It’s been fourteen months since my very successful cardiac ablation. For the third and, I am told, final time as a follow-up, I’m wearing a heart monitor.

ReWARding the Family
War for fun and profit. The one positive result of all this is that no Republican politician or voter can ever again point to any Democratic candidate and get away with accusing them of being immoral or corrupt.
Panel Discussion
This stat of an un-inked comic book panel is from a 5-page Inhumans backup story, in a 1967 issue of Thor that I remember very well.
It’s an example of why I consider Jack Kirby to be the all-time greatest comic book artist. Original art dimensions would soon downsize to 10″x15″, but this panel was drawn 12″ wide, giving Kirby extra space to convey a sense of depth and solidity in the objects and surfaces.
Joe Sinnott applied his impeccably clean and precise inking to the story. Unfortunately, the coloring is much too bright and flat in this clipping from a digital comic.

Why wasn’t this done first, before initiating military action? Oh, right. Bibi talked Donald into going to war.
Paid Actor?
I wondered how some random lady, the “Door Dash Grandma,” was able to walk right up to the White House to deliver Donald’s comfort food.
The answer is, she isn’t some random lady. Once again, Republicans play the game of accusing everybody else of what they’re doing. That wasn’t the first time she’s been planted for a photo op.
Time and Face
Watching more classic Doctor Who, I wondered who this young beauty is. She’s another reminder of the passage of time. Hilary Ryan is a month older than I am.
