Occasionally I'm a Wizard

Women have always been at the forefront of literature, the first novel (what we would consider a novel in modern terms) was written by a woman (Lady Muraskai’s the Tale of Genji in the early 1000s) take your snide “Isaac Asimov” reblogs and stick it

even in terms of male scifi authors, asimov was predated by Jules Verne, HG Wells, George Orwell, you could have even cited Poe or Jonathan Swift has a case but Asimov?

im going to stare at it

im going to grin like an idiot

i dont care if you think its bad or not

i love it

Hiiii my askbox is totally free!! Come any time

No rlly reading comics in order is mostly impossible or if even possible kinda... boring at some point in my experience lol So I would always start with smth that just looks appealing to u - fuck the context - and then just go from there. Do you want to read more avt the context? Then you can always go back in the timeline. Do you want to know what happens next? Mayve if you are lucky the next run picks up where this comic left of - but a lot of the time it highkey doesnt!! So - anarchy it is haha

Nowwwww I can give u some Batman recommendations if you want :3 For ehich you need no context whatsover btw

Batman and Robin Year One: This one holds a special place in my heart. Gorgeous art, especially the colours. Found family, drama, angst. It gets Dick Grayson and his anger like few other comics do, while still showing how he cares and loves and loves to perform and shine and bring literal light into Batman's life. Also we got a few cute moments that touch on his heritage as a Showman, and by extension therefore his Roma heritage.

Batman The Long Halloween: It's a classic for a reason. AND ITS SO FEMINIST. DONT TRUST THE DUDEBROS. THIS COMIC IS ABT TOXIC MASCULINITY AND THE "AMERICAN WORK ETHIC" AND HOW IT DESTROIS THE PSYCHE OF BOTH MEN AND WOMEN BUT HOW IN THE END ESPECIALLY THE MOTHERS AND WIFES HAVE TO SUFFER AND ITS SO GOOD AND RAHHHH. the art is also peak (if you ignore how everyone is build super duper sexy lol)

Batman and Superman Worlds Finest: It's fun, it's pg12, it's really cute. Also the Doom Patrol (aka the silluest fucker in the universe) make an apperance! And also a lot of Superbat shipping material lol.

And now, I dont know if I can recommend the next comic bc well - I really like it but it is also insanely xenophobic, especially islamophobic :') It's Batman and Robin (2009) by Grant Morrison and while I regularly rlly enjoy their work they did do a number on Talia in here so..... eh. But ut has such an interesting dynamic between Dick and Damian and Dicks struggle with his fathers legacy, Batman's cowl and his own identity and urghhhhh its just so good (except when it sucks ass)
