Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
But first, a word about Marvel Boy:
They call him Marvel Boy.
And now, a word about Bob from Accounting.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Random Sunday afternoon geek-child creation project: Superhero A to Z, for Matilda to work on her pre-reading letter recognition skills. Teen Titans animated series-verse preferable (she knows them all well, plus more kid-friendly images), the more girls and women the better.

A is for Aqualad
B is for Batman and Beastboy
C is for Cyborg
D is for Daredevil
E is for Elastagirl (either Doom Patrol or Helen Parr, or both)
F is for Flash
G is for Green Lantern (who is mildly lame, but there just aren't a ton of G's)
H is for Hawkgirl
I is for Iron Man
J is for Jinx
K is for Kid Flash (a semi-repeat of F, but in the TT animated-verse he's SO FRICKIN' ADORABLE)
L is for ____________
M is for Mas Y Menos (there've got to be more, but I'm having brainfreeze on other candidates)
N is for Nightwing
O is for _____________
P is for Phoenix
