I'm not even certain how I stumbled across Moon Wizard, but hot damn am I glad I did. I LOVE this band! New album Sirens came out a few weeks ago and you can click on that Bandcamp Widget above or this link

NCBD:
Pretty big haul today. Let's get into it:
Two issues of Army of Darkness Forever remain after this one, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the three disparate timelines - Ash in the future, Evil Ash in the 90s, and Sheila in the Medieval
Army of Darkness timeline - all coalesce.
This Cobra Commander series is the best damn thing since sliced bread. My Drinking with Comics cohost Mike Shin stole a peak at this one while putting it on the shelves at his shop, and without revealing anything, his "Damn," pronouncement has me giddy A.F. for tomorrow.
Love the cover. I was happy to learn that Larry Hama's seminal
G.I.JOE: ARAH is making such a triumphant resurgence, and I'm happy to do my part. Even with an almost 200 issue gap in my reading, I'm digging returning to the book that turned me into a hardcore comic fan.
Johnny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling. With old buds John Constantine and Alec Holland's Swamp Thing back together again, what madness awaits? We shall see...
I feel like the second issue of this just came out. The other side of the
Fall of X coin, I'm digging Al Ewing's approach to this a lot. As I mentioned in a recent episode of Drinking with Comics, this shares some DNA with his 2021
Defenders series, of which I was a pretty big fan.
Hate to see this chapter in Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino's
Bone Orchard Mythos go, but with the world-building going on in the previous two issues, I'm psyched that however
Tenement ends, it will pave the way for future great things.
Not gonna lie, I'm pretty skeptical about this one. That said, I've come this far not to finish this whole Fall of X thing out, and the four-issue
X-Men: Forever appears to be the caboose on Kieron Gillen's train, so let's do this, for better or worse.
Watch:
Fede Alvarez, I'd follow you into hell, because tomorrow...
Is today...
Can't F**kin' wait!

• IX: The Hermit
• Queen of Pentacles
• Five of Cups
There's the Hermit in first position again. That's two days in a row, so let's look a little deeper into it. From the grimoire: "Dark & lonely period of gestation. Fetal; a re-grouping. This is EXACTLY where I'm at after two days of working on the last act of the novel. It's uncanny. The Queen of Pentacles - or the Emotional aspect of Earthly concerns is my protagonist Lisa exactly. The Five of Cups is the Emotional Conflict she is soon to be crushed under in determining how best to survive the events of the novel's final conflict. I don't necessarily see guidance for my way forward in these cards, but they definitely feel like a nod to the fact that I'm on the right path. To quote Deputy Hawk:
