Ah, Neron, the (former) Lord of Hell. Like Lucifer, only twice as egomaniacal and ten times as sassy. But even he knows there's no market value on a fascist's soul.

A comic panel is captioned "The Lord of Hell when a Republican once again tries to sell his ratty-(censored) worthless soul for votes". Neron, the handsome blonde lord of Hell, rolls his eyes and pouts. He says, "Oh, great. It's this guy." A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit".

This is why no one likes Eradicator. Plus he'll corner you at a party and drone on and on about Kryptonian history, and not even the good bits.

Two comic panels. In the first, a hologram of the Eradicator, a sentient computer program modeled on Superman, looks at Conner Kent, a.k.a. Superboy and Jon Kent, a.k.a. Superman in the Fortress of Solitude. Eradicator says, "I sense in this chamber the presence of a... sullied clone..." Superboy protests, "Hey!" but Eradicator continues with, "And your own half-terran progeny. Is it your wish these abominations be culled, as is fitting?" The next panel shows Krypto and Supergirl looking on. Supergirl says, "Oh my god, Karen, you can't just ask people if they wish abominations to be culled!" A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"

That's called the sunk cost fallacy, Jimmy, an it's called a fallacy cuz it ain't true! See, this is the problem with bein' a conspiracy theorist, it's too easy ta' get misled about important stuff!

Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane from the "My Adventures with Superman" universe stand in front of stock market looking graphics. Jimmy says, "Capitalism is simple! Buy stonks, stonks go up!" Lois says, "That's just a meme. It doesn't actually work like that, or at all for working class people." Jimmy replies, "Lois, either it works like that or I lost all of Grandma's savings for nothing, so stonks. Go. Up." A caption reads, "Days 'til Jimmy is Solvent: 7" The 7 is scratched out in red and 20 is written in. The 20 is scratched out and 173 is written in. Another caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"

One a' my all-time favorite quotes. I ain't much a' a religious person. But I do believe we're all connected, an' connected ta' the universe, on a fundamental level, an' I think that's beautiful.

Three comic panels edited in purples, blues, and reds. Kilowog walks through the woods under a full moon. He lifts off from the ground, then flies toward the moon through a starry sky with the power of his green lantern ring. A series of captions say, "The iron in our blood, the calcium in our teeth, the carbon in our genes, were produced billions of years ago in the interior of a red giant star. We are made of star-stuff. Carl Sagan." Another caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit."

This is an edit a' one a' my favorite scenes. Kilowog is wrestlin' with whether ta' kill Sinestro fer his atrocities. Kilowog flat out says "I got the right ta do it-- I do--!" in the original dialogue. But he decides not to, not cuz a moral high ground, but cuz a his own feelins.

I like that.

Sinestro, enemy of the Green Lanterns, is incarcerated in a green bubble on the moon. Kilowog stands in front of him, facing away from Sinestro and toward the reader. Arisia Raab, the elf-like Green Lantern, flies behind them. Arisia says, "Kilowog-- you stopped!" Kilowog says "It's always ethical to hurt fascists, but that don't mean it's our only tactic." Sinestro gloats, "Hahahah! No, you are a Green Lantern! You have to have ideals! That is the reason you will never wipe out fascism!" Kilowog replies, "Course I got ideals! An' those ideals say any violence against a fascist is self-defense! But I also know tactics, an' those say just cuz it's justified don't mean it's the best action in every situation! Violence is a tool in our toolbox, but it ain't the only tool. An' it ain't the first tool we try!" A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit".)

Yeah, there's an evil lil' Bruce clone runnin' around now. This is not his tell in th' actual comics, but it oughta be!

Robin, a.k.a. Damian Wayne, is bound helplessly to a wall. A young brainwashed clone of Bruce Wayne dressed as Zur-En-Arrh Robin stands guard. Damian says, "Are you really father's young clone?" The clone says, "You could find out, but I see you're a little tied up at the moment". Damian gasps and says, "Dad jokes! Then it's true!" A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"

I'll admit, I wuz skeptical when I heard there wuz gonna be a Black Label comic about Damian, but I'm diggin' it! It's highly stylized, an' it shows that Black Label can explore mature themes without them being lewd, crude, or edgelordy. Damian's a complicated person, an' I'm lovin' this dreamlike retellin' a' how he became more heroic.

In a comic panel Damian Wayne, a.k.a. Robin, and Jason Todd, a.k.a. Red Hood, glare at each other. Both have ephemeral red horns on their heads. Damian's are large and upright, like a stag mixed with a demons. Jason's are more traditional and smaller, swept back over the top of his helmet. A caption reads, "Exactly twenty seconds after Bruce gives the Robins his new portable hologram projector tech..." Damian says, "My horns are bigger than yours." Jason says, "That--that doesn't matter!" Then he says quietly, "Gonna make mine even bigger!"

Do I hate Steve Perry fer puttin' all those high notes at the end a' Don't Stop Believin'? Of course not! Steve Perry was a brilliant performer, an' we're just privileged ta' hear him be able ta' hit those notes that a Baritone like me has no hope a' singin'.

But also yes, very much.

$In a comic panel Billy Batson, the alter ego of Shazam, clenches his fists and opens his mouth in an expression of intense sound. Around him reality begins to crack, with red fracture lines spreading like shattered glass. Billy sings, "Street lights! People! Oh-oh aaaaaaah!!" with the final note growing louder and louder. A caption reads, "A Kilowog-core Edit".$

Bein' my kinda neurospicy means that when I'm in a dark spiral, I can't never remember bein' out a' it. Times a' joy just no longer exist fer me.

But here's the thing: It ain't true. I have had joy, so much a' it, an' I'll have it again. Intellectually I know that. So I try ta' listen ta' just my intellect an' ignore my memory for a while.

In a comic panel Kilowog is lying on his back, dressed in a green tank top, shorts, and boots. He is unconscious. A purple and blue aura surrounds him, and the background is a psychadelic swirl of color. He thinks, "I know sumptin's broken inside. I can feel my heartjuices spillin'. I'm conscious... feeling myself dyin'." A caption reads, "Sometimes I feel like this. But never forever. Trust that it will pass." Another caption says, "A Kilowog-core Edit".

I ain't sayin' that Mr. Tawky Tawny is, despite his suit and urbane manner, an apex predator whose instinctive bloodlust will one day cause him to lose control and devour the Shazamily. I'm just sayin' look at his eyes. Do ya see compassion there?

Shazam!, and Freddie Freeman, previously Captain Marvel, Jr., walk by. A caption reads, "Being a talking tiger does have its challenges." Tawny says, "Hello boys!" Billy says, "Sup." Tawny says, "Dinner's at six." Freddie says, "Bet." In the next panel Tawny is still cooking, but his eyes are wide and predatory. He thinks, "No, Tawny, you must resist. Keep the inner beast at bay. Dinner is to be stuffed portabello. And not tasty, tasty children..." A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"

Mebbe ya didn't know that Bizarro No. 1 wuz not the first Bizarro in comics! The first Bizarro wuz Bizarro Superboy from Superboy #68.

There's a reason this one don't get reprinted much, an' that's cuz Superboy's straight-up the villain a' the piece, persecutin' Bizarro just cuz he's ugly. Seems kinda off-brand.

The soldier says, "Let me get this right-- you want to nuke Smallville to see what happens?" Superboy says, "Just outside Smallville, yes, to see what happens to Bizarro!" The soldier hesitates, then says, "You're lucky it's the '50s." The next panel shows Superboy flying through the air, dropping a nuclear bomb toward Bizarro. A caption reads, "Look, he does try to nuke Bizarro. That happens." Superboy says, "Move over Spider-Man, there's a new Menace! Duck and cover!" A caption on the nuke reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"

I love Steven Universe. The songs were catchy an' it blended cute an' adventure well. I also love Superman: Lost. It wasn't cute, but it made me think about the nature a' heroes an' humanity, an' it's good ta' have a comic that does that every so often.

The second panel shows the figure off-panel was a giant sand statue of Lois Lane. The statue looks at the relatively tiny Superman and says, "We know." A caption reads, "A Kilowog-core Edit".

Seriously though, the Internationale is a fantastic song with a ton a' great covers (Bella Ciao is another good one). An' Street Sweeper Social Club is the music a' the revolution.
