In stores April 1, 2025!

Superman’s Pal, Jimmy Olsen, sometimes feels like he’s overshadowed by his extremely strong, flying, day-saving, super-heroic friend. Jimmy’s only a kid, after all, and taking pictures and documenting the heroics of the Justice League is great, but is it really as cool as being one of the heroes?

Well, now that he’s been entrusted with the incredible Supercyclopedia (it’s a whole thing, you’ll see it in a little bit), Jimmy hopes to be more of an action hero himself…as soon as he figures out all the cool things that he can do with its powerful alien technology. But when the villainous Toy Boy and his Mischief League of the Multiverse get their hands on knock-off versions of the device, they won’t stop until they use them to devastate the fabric of space-time itself.

Can Jimmy save the day? With his buddies Rip Hunter and Linda Park by his side, he’s definitely up for the challenge. They embark on a planet- and dimension-hopping adventure, encountering a who’s who of the DC Universe and discovering that not all heroes wear capes. Look out, world!

USA please listen to me: the price of “teaching them a lesson” is too high. take it from New Zealand, who voted our Labour government out in the last election because they weren’t doing exactly what we wanted and got facism instead.

Trans rights are being attacked, public transport has been defunded, tax cuts issued for the wealthy, they've mass-defunded public services, cut and attacked the disability funding model, cut benefits, diverted transport funding to roads, cut all recent public transport subsidies, cancelled massive important infrastructure projects like damns and ferries (we are three ISLANDS), fast tracked mining, oil, and other massive environmentally detrimental projects and gave the power the to approve these projects singularly to three ministers who have been wined and dined by lobbyists of the companies that have put the bids in to approve them while one of the main minister infers he will not prioritise the protection of endangered species like the archeys frog over mining projects that do massive environmental harm. They have attacked indigenous rights in an attempt to negate the Treaty of Waitangi by “redefining it”; as a backup, they are also trying to remove all mentions of the treaty from legislation starting with our Child Protection laws no longer requiring social workers to consider the importance of Maori children’s culture when placing those children; when the Waitangi Tribunal who oversees indigenous matters sought to enquire about this, the Minister for Children blocked their enquiry in a breach of comity that was condemned in a ruling — too late to do anything — by our Supreme Court. They have repealed labour protections around pay and 90 day trials, reversed our smoking ban, cancelled our EV subsidy, cancelled our water infrastructure scheme that would have given Maori iwi a say in water asset management, cancelled our biggest city’s fuel tax, made our treasury and inland revenue departments less accountable, dispensed of our Productivity Commission, begun work on charter schools and military boot camps in an obvious push towards privatisation, cancelled grants for first home buyers, reduced access to emergency housing, allowed no cause evictions, cancelled our Maori health system that would have given Maori control over their own public medical care and funding, cut funding of services like budgeting advice and food banks, cancelled the consumer advocacy council, cancelled our medicine regulations, repealed free prescriptions, deferred multiple hospital builds, failed to deliver on pre-election medical promises, reversed a gun ban created in response to the mosque shootings, brought back three strikes = life sentence policy, increased minimum wage by half the recommended amount, cancelled fair pay for disabled workers, reduced wheelchair services, reversed our oil and gas exploration ban, cancelled our climate emergency fund, cut science research funding including climate research, removed limits on killing sea lions, cut funding for the climate change commission, weakened our methane targets, cancelled Significant National Areas protections, have begun reversing our ban on live exports. Much of this was passed under urgency.

It’s been six months.

What July 4th means to me: Books and autographs from 4 of the final 5 Seuling Cons, NYC (Philly in ‘77) 1975-1979. I missed '76, because for some reason my super-indulgent aunt didn’t take li'l me north that year.

Holy crap, I met some awesome dudes.
