Thought I would look back at 1954's Seduction of the Innocent, and Juvenile Delinquency.
Its hard to pick a beginning, but how about 1839's Oliver Twist, by Charles Dickens. We glamorize the Artful Dodger now, but he is caught and transported to a penal colony.
'Why donI keep coming back to this restaurant?'
All he wants is his soup and some quiet to enjoy it.
His name is 'Mr. Johnson' , but that wasn't given to him until 1983.
Now watching The Awakening (1980)
An adaptation of a Bram Stoker story. I've never seen it, and I'm a sucker for Mummy movies.
I noticed Ian McDiarmid is in it, which I'll look out for

Who remembers THIS?!? The reason I always prefer actual comics over trades is because I love the whole package… the ads, the checklists, etc. I can remember staring at this ad so much as a kid. The guy with the metal hand and the chest tattoo!?! Come on! Totally badass. 🤘🏻
Watched Alien: Covenant for the first time
A direct sequel to Prometheus, as a stand alone movie thus might be just fine - but as an Alien movie its slow, tired, predictable and pessimistic even for an Alien movie.

An Alex Raymond mini-bio from a UK Flash Gordon annual.
He died, not yet 47, from a traffic accident in 1956, when he ran a 1956 Corvette (with 450 horse) off a rainy road into a tree. He may have been intentionally taking risks - opinions vary.
Coming back from a Social Media break
Did you know that on this day in 1975 Atari released Home Pong - sold exclusively at Sears sporting goods dept for the 1975 holiday season (tele-games)
This is Console Prime
Her: He's thinking about another woman
Him: Does Bruce Wayne have a Bat Tanning Bed, cause the guy is never out in daylight. Must be the whitest guy in Gotham.

K-7 Space Station
Of all things things to make a model of, and not even an image of a Tribble!
The Planet Killer might have been nice, but really more character sets (the Aurora way) might have been profitable too (Gorn, Salt Vampire, etc)
