I love that Jimmy Olsen is exactly the type of photographer Peter Parker pretends to be. Just bat-shit insane.
Whenever someone asks Peter how he took a picture he's like "Oh! I uh-, climmed a flagpole. Totally"
And very mortal, normal-human Jimmy is like "See, Clark, is not that weird"
I mean, look at this nutjob.

The world could be ending, lava on the streets and Jimmy would be out there photographing away. No powers, no sense of self preservation. Just khakis, a camera and a dream.
I like to imagine Peter meeting Jimmy and immediately being mortified about it.
Jimmy: –and so luckily I was able to take the picture before the building collapsed on me... Superman was super pissed at me but, photographer to photographer, it was totally worth it.
Peter: Right, no– See, this is actually my first time hearing how fucking insane that sounds. No wonder people at work look at me weird.

explorers of the unknown
They lifted the plunging neckline for Betty upward. Similar effects with Veronica. Or -- whatever their names were in that series.
High heels and flippers?

Once again, a Joshua Williamson comic leaves me feeling that all the writer's inspiration comes from reading previous comics and none of his writing is infused by genuine life experience or understanding of human nature.
Which probably makes him perfect for the big senseless events DC enjoy so much.

Did you know that JRR Tolkien wrote an unpublished epilogue to Lord of the Rings? It's achingly, beautifully wistful in the way that only Lord of the Rings is. I revisited it recently because I'm guesting on my friends' LOTR podcast, and THAT reminded me that I drew a comic of the epilogue back in 2021 (all text is entirely canon). Anyway I thought folks on this website might enjoy it!

Did Danny and Ethan ever kiss? Or was it only Danny’s dream?
I could swear they kissed and told Amber about it, but maybe that’s my dream.
see, this is what making sure your characters are perfect relationship paladins robs you of
i really really wanted to have ethan and danny smooch down, but, NO, i had to make sure all relationships were broken off with existing parties and a proper cooldown period established before Things Occurred, and so, no, ethan and danny did not ever make out
hormones did not prevail
and then i lost that window
still kicking myself
