Every week on my Patreon I post an entry from my old column Roots and Beginnings, about the things that got me into horror, science fiction, and fantasy. This week, it's Marvel Universe trading cards. https://t.co/3ONttl0Hg4 https://t.co/xbOfc66zbL

@sadnessspecter Down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. He is the hero; he is everything.

With the pedantic caveat that it already has several (Berlin Alexanderplatz, Dekalog, Scenes from a Marriage, Fishing with John) I'd add The Prisoner, The Twilight Zone, The Sopranos, Too Old to Die Young, Monty Python's Flying Circus, Tim & Eric, and The Young Pope/The New Pope https://t.co/ZFQKmpZHnv

@roxana_hadadi @megsokay @Cinesnark In fairness to me my genetics expertise is sourced primarily from the novel cycle A Song of Ice and Fire by the fantasy author George R.R. Martin

There's no way to quickly describe it, but Julie Doucet's Time Zone J pulls off the miraculous trick of vividly recounting a life-altering event while centering the fact that this is being done in the present, that there's an unbridgeable gap between who we were and who we are.

I'm continuing to repost Roots and Beginnings, my old column on the things that got me interested in SF fantasy and horror, at my Patreon. This week's entry: Alvin Schwartz & Stephen Gammell's immortal Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. https://t.co/EU6IJZryPU https://t.co/RkyG3WpWbs

You wanna know a terrific book? The Comic Book Story of Professional Wrestling by @aubreysitterson and Chris Moreno. Lays out the incredibly complex and confusing history of pro wrestling in a way both me and my 11 year old could understand and greatly enjoy. Recommended!

Hmm. Maybe a really good cultural criticism book about a widely known topic, like Carl Wilson’s Let’s Talk About Love: A Journey to the End of Taste or Eula Biss’s On Immunity. Lots of stuff in each book for readers of all interests to chew on. https://t.co/jjG8issp1W

Every week on my Patreon I post an entry from my old column Roots and Beginnings, about the stuff that first got me into fantasy, horror, and science fiction. This week, it's Edgar Allan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado." https://t.co/ZQ4mIOL9BN https://t.co/Ssc0HHkAHE
