Every long box is a time capsule
Ran a block sale a couple weeks ago. Cleared out a chunk of my comic collection — decades of it, out on tables, priced to move.
What I didn’t expect was how much sorting through those boxes turned into an argument with several past versions of myself, all of whom made increasingly questionable purchasing decisions.
Wrote up the whole thing here:

This movie isn’t talked about enough!
Marvel Graphic Novel 5 (1983) X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills by Chris Claremont & Brent Anderson
Cover: Brent Anderson
I was 16 when I first read this.
I had only discovered the X-Men a couple of years earlier, so I didn’t have decades of continuity to compare it to. I just knew it felt… important.
I don’t think I realized at the time that God Loves, Man Kills wasn’t just a good X-Men story. It was one of the books that quietly taught me what comic books were capable of. Superheroes could punch Sentinels one month and then turn around and tackle prejudice, fear, and hatred with surprising honesty the next.
Brent Anderson was another reason this book stayed with me. Back then I was daydreaming about becoming a comic book artist right out of high school, and I followed artists almost as much as writers. His storytelling felt grounded in a way that made the fantastic seem believable.
Looking back, I think this graphic novel helped convince me that comics could be literature without ever stopping being comics.
Marvel Graphic Novel 1 (1982) The Death of Captain Marvel by Jim Starlin
Cover: Jim Starlin
I was 15 when this came out in 1982, and it felt unlike anything I’d read before.
The oversized format made it feel important before you even opened it. Then Marvel did something that still seems bold today, they let a major hero die, not in some cosmic battle, but from cancer.
I also remember Spider-Man absolutely losing it because he was in space. Seeing him so far outside his comfort zone made the whole story feel even bigger.
Funny enough, my own introduction to Captain Marvel had been through Spider-Man in a Marvel Team-Up. I just knew I was witnessing something that comics didn’t usually do.
Forty-plus years later, it still holds up.
And he’s still dead.

I pulled a box.
It happened to have Omega Men #3 in it.
The Supergirl casting announcement was in the news. The timing was a coincidence I was smart enough not to ignore.
I thought I was listing a comic.
Instead, I found a memory.
The rest of that story became this week’s Substack essay.

imo the best way to interpret those “real people don’t do x” writing advice posts is “most people don’t do x, so if a character does x, it should be a distinguishing trait.” human behavior is infinitely varied; for any x, there are real people who do x. we can’t make absolute statements. we can, however, make probabilistic ones.
for example, most people don’t address each other by name in the middle of a casual conversation. if all your characters do that, your dialogue will sound stilted and unnatural. but if just one character does that, then it tells us something about that character.
adding to this. the probabilistic framing is great but there’s another layer: fiction is working under serious time and space constraints. grief in real life might look like eating cereal at 11pm and forgetting to answer texts for a week. you don’t always have a week. so characters end up doing things that are statistically rare but emotionally efficient, and that’s not bad writing, that’s compression. the name-dropping dialogue thing is still a crutch though, because it’s not compressing anything, it’s just substituting for actual voice work. heightened behavior = often necessary. heightened language = usually lazy.

I’ve officially started reading the DC Universe in chronological order. Not by publication date, but in the actual timeline of the stories. From the birth of the heroes to the cosmic battles, I’m taking this journey one event at a time. Got some reading guides to help me stay on track, but I’ll be sharing thoughts, panels, and favorites along the way. Anyone else reading along? Let’s dive into the DC timeline together.

I have discovered the truth about chainmail bikinis, and it is imperative those wearing such armor do not think about it too hard or they may inadvertently cross the line between Sexy Hero and Homicidal Pervert.
