If the choices were for IDW to lose the license in 2019 or to have this run, I'm glad we had this run. Like most everybody has said, the first year was a slog to get through. I didn't become engaged until the Nautica solo issue. More of an every complaint, but you can tell how much the cast was...

"But for me, it was Tuesday." Literally and figuratively, that's what yesterday felt like. In 2016, this would've felt like the most explosive moment in American history since Watergate. But in 2022, it's hardly surprising, even expected. That's how low we've sunk. If this is the most shocking...

Part of it is that the "one damn Jewish country" occupies the space that three major religions claim as their ancestral sacred Holy Land. Possession of that one, single spot in the world has been the casus belli for wars throughout human history. So, according to some religious groups, Israel...

I mean...c'mon. That thread may sound insightful, until you realize the same thing could be said about Democrats' messaging. They can tell you what to do (wear masks, use pronouns, less guns) You cannot tell them what to do (My body, my choice) Just because I agree with Democrats more than...

Fascism is not a race.

They do on paper, at least. A quick search of Arizona law turned up this: "Ineffective assistance of counsel has two components: a party must show both that counsel's representation fell below prevailing professional norms and that a reasonable probability exists that, but for counsel's errors...

The guy is not Clearly, Objectively Innocent. The guy's trial attorney DID do a bad job, however. Did a Bad Job must be raised at Appeal Level 1. The guy is already at Appeal Level 2, where only Clearly, Objectively Innocent matters. The guy made an argument that might've worked at Appeal Level...

Okay, so... There's evidence supporting a Reasonable Doubt, and there's evidence of Innocence. A motion for relief based on true "Innocence" is, like, "This guy was convicted of rape because we found his DNA in the victim, but the lab just came back and said they swapped the slides, so that...

Republicans (i.e., the people who voted in that primary) absolutely did kick an out and proud Nazi from their party's ticket. By voting. Which is how the system is supposed to work.

My headcanon is that the Autobots call him "Red Cog" because he looks like Cog and they can't remember his real name, but HE thinks its an obscure regional euphemism for Scraplets (Marvel Comics version), and appreciates his teammates giving him a kick-aft nickname for being deadly and...

One of the subtler problems with our society is the need for instant gratification. When people say "Voting doesn't work!", what they mean is "ME voting didn't get ME what I wanted immediately, so why bother?" Voting is the solution to our society's problems...but your vote alone is not...

Whether intentionally or not, the professor is misrepresenting the situation in that quote. The government did not copy the Defendant's private data. The digital media company preserved a copy of data they already had shared ownership in, at the government's request. The government only got...

I graduated law school back in 2009, and this was already understood about digital evidence back then. Most interpretations and explanations of "Seizure" have been based around depriving the owner of their property, or control over their property like moving it freely (you're being "seized" in...

One of the best quotes I've ever read about religion came from Dune: "Religion must remain an outlet for people who say to themselves, 'I am not the kind of person I want to be.' It must never sink into an assemblage of the self-satisfied."

Jetstorm is a good contender, too.

It's a Madman's Paradise quasi-sequel starring Grimlock as Conan the Barbarian. If that sounds weirdly intriguing to you, then yes.

...the opposite being what? "More of the Same" instead of "Fresh Take"?

Across the entire intellectual property, what Hasbro needs is a Fresh Take. They dug so deep into the nostalgia market the past few years, they can't see sunlight anymore. Combiners, -Masters, Pretenders, Beast Wars...all the original G1 ideas have been revisited. From Masterpiece to Studio...

Any sort of G1 Transformers reboot is going to run into the same problem. Like with Batman or Spider-Man movie reboots, there's a matter of diminishing returns. There's only so many times you can watch Uncle Ben die, or craft a new and interesting narrative with the same basic characters and...

Imagine the quantum duplicate of the Lost Light from IDW 2005 wound up in IDW's new 2019 continuity. Autobot and co-captain Megatron returns home to Cybertron and finds his doppelganger in the process of seizing power for the Decepticon cause. It's a conversation that might overshadow Chaos...
