The first Sea of Time #1 review is incredibly generous. Courtesy of Charles Hatfield at The Comics Journal today:

“I can’t tell whether this is a continuation, companion, or sequel to Bak’s Island of Memory, a nearly decade-old (2013) graphic novella with the same subject: Georg Steller, the 18th-century German naturalist who traveled under the aegis of the Russian Empire and explored Alaska and Kamchatka. Bak has been obsessed with Steller for years, and has long promised a complete graphic biography of him under the title Wild Man. He has referred to Sea of Time as the second volume of Wild Man, but also as “the serialized graphic novel follow-up to Island of Memory.” I don’t get how the two books fit together, or what is supposed to come next. What I do know is that both books are lovely, and that, taken by itself, Sea of Time is hermetic and hard to parse, but stunningly beautiful and transporting. I’m glad that more Sea of Time is promised, because no one else is doing quite what Bak is doing at the intersection of comics, history, and the natural sciences. He treats comics as a way to feed his knowledge of the natural world yet is likewise alert to the political and cultural snares inherent in his subject matter, especially the fraught interchange between imperial and Indigenous ways of knowing. Bak’s sharp, rugged style somewhat evokes the woodcut technique of early Russian lubki, which could be either an apt or ironic framing of the imperial adventurism that underlies Steller’s story. In any case, Bak’s art is getting lovelier, and his graphic worldmaking is something to behold. At only 24 pages, this booklet makes me impatient to see more!”

With time everything fades-

Everything you have known,

Everything you have longed for,

Everything you have loved,

Everything drowns in the sea of

Time

[troublewheeler]

seaoftime replied to your post: hi, i’m old but  what the hell is “vibe check” ???

its slang for opening up emotions kinda like a “how do you really feel” type thing. Like “VIBE CHECK” and following up with something you know would make the other person emotional/angry/etc.

@seaoftime sent 🌕 Dart & Hop - Eerie Atmosphere: A full moon night with wind whistling through the trees

Hopper had been out pretty late on an emergency call. It was fall, and the wind had picked up quite a bit, rustling the leaves in the trees near the cabin as he got out of the Blazer and closed the door quietly in case El was asleep already. Boots crunching on gravel as he made his way to the porch, he stopped and turned when he thought he saw something out of the corner of his eye - a shadow in the light of the full moon. The wind whipped at his coat, a chill running down his spine. It didn’t help that it sounded spooky out in the forest at this time of night.

“El?” he said quietly, hand on his gun as he took a step toward where he thought he’d seen the shadow move.

Ground type!

Give me a pokemon type and I'll name a pokemon of that type I can see my muse training

I had to go back cause I realized I...accidentally deleted my post about Nancy’s team but I’m pretty sure that Nidoqueen was on there as ground type. But also, if we’re talking pokemon that are ground from the beginning I think Nancy would want a Phanpy as well.

“I messed up, okay? I messed up.” -Steve @ Hopper

Hopper didn’t know what Steve was talking about; he was so upset he was sort of just babbling on. Maybe he’d had a fight with Nancy or someone. But one thing was clear: the kid was really sorry about whatever he’d done.

Hopper reached out, gently taking him by the shoulders. “Hey, hey, what happened?”

❝  if they do it again, you tell me.  ❞ - Steve

Soft Caring Sentence Compilation

Shaking her head, Nancy appreciated the offer but didn't think it was necessary. It wasn't as big a deal as she made it out to be, Mike and his friends could just be so annoying sometimes that she just had to rant about it. "No, it's ok really, you don't have to worry about it. They're just being stupid, as always.” She rolled her eyes but allowed her expression to soften soon after to show she was thankful. “I'm glad you have my back though, I'll let them know you'll kick their asses if they try it again." She told him with a hint of a smile on her face, teasing him a little since she wasn't too sure how well that threat would be received.
