Odds and Ends

I did all my holiday shopping already. However, Clarkson asked on his talker to go to the Mall, and we hadn’t been for a bit so I figured, “Why not?” It didn’t occur to me how the mall might be slammed so close to Christmas. By sheer luck, we got an amazing parking spot by quickly swerving into it the moment another car pulled out. It was pretty busy there, however. It is one of the local malls still doing okay financially. My favorite one shut down a bit ago and is currently rubble.

Sure. Now you all want to talk. I was bored today.

Looks amazing…

Yeah, I started to read The Beauty when it first came out but dropped it… but this trailer gives me no incentive to want to watch it.

Where’s the cyclops?

its shown briefly, far away in shadows of cave scene

Ah, ok. If I recall, he traps them in the cave and occasionally eats a few men here and there over time.

It’s been a while…like high school…but I vividly remember that part of the book…

Working off memory also but I believe Odysseus tricks Polyphemos & says his name is “Nobody” & when Polyphemos complains to the Gods/other Cyclops about the situation they laugh at him because he keeps saying “Nobody” did it.

The Odyssey is such a fantastic story…if they even capture just a bit it should still be incredible.

I especially want to see Scylla & Charbydis on the big screen…also loved that part.

Cracks me up how people are so bent out of shape over the armor/costumes…this isn’t a documentary.

I’m not really a Star Wars guy, just thinking about whether it might be under ordered if many don’t realize it’s last issue. Could also be nothing burger lol.

What magazines are the last issue sought after? Not sure magazines have the same last issue/low print run as comics.

Also, it wouldn’t surprise me if it gets picked up by another publisher. Maybe it starts with a new issue #1 at that time…

And is the last issue 237 or 236? The article calls out 237 initially , then it’s all about 236 after that.

I always thought of Star Wars people being a different breed. Lol

Ya, it’s confusing if it’s 236 or 237. Other articles state 237 besides BC.

Yeah it’s 237. Probably put up 236 because no cover info for 237, maybe. Not sure who would risk picking it up for a print version, but I guess that is a possibility.
