And the last batch of character models.
Heat Wave's original costume is shapeless and sorely lacking in color. It's so overwhelmingly white. Also, it's made of asbestos. So if you were wondering why Mick got cancer in Jeremy Adams' Flash run (don't worry, he got better), that's why.
Sam's shades come from Flash vol. 1 #242. I also gave him a wide 70s tie, because why not?
I finally figured out how to draw Digger holding a boomerang in a way that looks good!

Lockheed Martin will integrate AARGM-ER missile into F-35 aircraft
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 01/16/2024 - 16:00 in Armaments, Military
On January 12, NAVAIR (Naval Air Systems Command), on behalf of the U.S. Department of Defense, signed a $97.3 million contract for the integration of the Northrop Grumman AGM-88G AARGM-ER (Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile-Extended Range) missile with the F-35A/B/C Lightning II multifunctional fighters family.
The contract, scheduled to be completed in March 2026, will be executed by the U.S. Air Force (F-35A), the U.S. Marine Corps (F-35B and F-35C), the U.S. Navy (F-35C) and partners of the F-35 JSF program, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, Norway, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands and other users of the 17º aircraft production batch.
'Lot 17' is a designation given to the last portion of F-35 aircraft produced. The U.S. Department of Defense finalized an agreement for production in December 2022.
This 'lot' includes 126 aircraft that will be the first iteration to include the Technical Refresh-3 (TR-3) update, the modernized hardware needed to power the capabilities of Block 4. The TR-3 includes a new integrated central processor with greater computing power, a panoramic display in the cabin and an improved memory unit.
Tumblr media
Previously, the AGM-88G AARGM-ER missiles were integrated with electronic war and air defense suppression aircraft F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler, with flight tests carried out in 2021 and 2022. On September 25, 2023, Northrop Grumman announced that it was selected by USAF to supply the new anti-radiation missile for the F-35A under the codename SiAW (Stand-in Attack Weapon), based on the AGM-88G AARGM-ER project.
The AARGM-ER was designed for enemy air defense suppression (SEAD) operations, capable of attacking anti-aircraft and missile systems, ballistic and cruise missile launchers, GPS interference systems and anti-satellite systems in strongly defended areas and negation environments (A2/AD). The missile features a new 290 mm diameter fuselage and a subsonic ramjet engine, doubling its range from 110 to approximately 220-250 km and increasing its maximum speed.
The AGM-88G AARGM-ER missiles are produced with a new propulsion and improved warhead set, based on newly produced orientation systems comprising a passive radar signal receiver, satellite navigation, counting system and millimeter wave radar. This differs from the AGM-88E AARGM, where propulsion and warhead are derived from AGM-88 HARM (high-speed anti-radiation missiles) stored missiles from the previous generation.
Tumblr media
In January 2018, the U.S. Navy hired Northrop Grumman to develop the AARGM-ER. On March 18, 2019, the USAF announced collaboration with the U.S. Navy to adapt the AARGM-ER for the F-35A, allocating $163 million for fiscal year 2020. At the same time, the U.S. Navy ordered additional development for $323 million, with funding allocated until 2020.
In July 2019, the Department of Defense granted Lockheed Martin a $34.7 million contract to initiate modifications to the F-35's internal weapon compartments to transport the AARGM-ER. The work, including the reinforcement of the fuselage structures, was completed in July 2022. The design and integration efforts are supervised by the PMA-242 (Direct and Time Sensitive Attack) office of the Department of Defense.

This is the last batch of cookies I have just made for my man. I have spent the past week sick with a cold and all I have really done is play Destiny 2. This week alone I made Crow 242 cookies. That brings it up to a whopping 542 cookies for my in-game hubby. Now that the Dawning will be over this week, I can get back to writing and typing the chapters I have written already. Hope you all have a wonderful New Year!

Roast Chicken Dinner with Julia Child’s Asperges au Naturel [Boiled Asparagus], Sauce Mornay, and boiled potatoes
Recipes from Mastering the Art of French Cooking used in this meal:
Sauce Velouté (57) Sauce Mornay (61) Asperges au Naturel [Boiled Asparagus – hot] (436) Roast Chicken pan sauce (242) (ack, never mind!)
Other recipes:
Ina Garten’s Perfect Roast Chicken
Frontmatter: So here’s a confession: I’m pretty hopeless with sauces, and a real dummy with carving a bird. I’ve been playing at roasting birds for 15 years, and making a complete cock-up of the final presentation the whole while. I’m afraid to cut into bone, and while I can roast a bird to perfection, the second I try to cut between the leg and the whatever, the drumstick bone rips out, or I shred the breast meat, or do some other stupid crap and then I lose my place and just start hacking away at the poor bird, and it all just looks like a giant pile of carrion remains in the end. And everyone’s really nice because it still tastes great, but then I get scared off it for a bit, and in my head, and then try again in a few months, and watch Jacque Pepin carve a bird, and a dozen other videos on You Tube, and look at old diagrams and drawings, and I come to my perfectly roasted and rested bird with a new plan and e voila, I fuck it up again and we eat a weird pile of delicious meat that looks like a drunkard shoveled it out of a gutter before it was attacked by wild dogs. Again.
Oh and I have no idea what wings are for or why anyone would care, so those just go in my next batch of stock. Which seems like a waste. But like who wants the wings off a roast chicken? Anyone? Someone must.
And I’ve never mastered the basics of sauces, so I follow recipes, but they’re not building on skills or knowledge. Every sauce is its own thing, not, oh it’s an ‘x’ but with vinegar instead of lemon juice. Like I can remember cocktail proportions that way. I know my Mai Tai in relationship to proportions of a Margarita, replace half the orange with orgeat, etc. So I know my brain can do that. But I’ve never learned my basic sauces, and so I can’t do it with sauces. Yet. Enter my cunning plan.
It’s to get better at stuff. My cunning plan is to learn shit and get better at stuff.
So, I’m going to spend some time with the OGFC, Julia Child to try to learn her basic sauces to build from there.
Toward that end, tonight I’ll attempt TWO, eh like 2.5, JC recipes from Mastering the Art of French Cooking: Asperges au Naturel [Boiled Asparagus] (peel that shit, the JC way, whether I think it matters or not {and I don’t}), a Sauce Mornay out of a Sauce Velouté which I think will be nice on asparagus and some simple boiled potatoes I’m making. I’m also going to roast a chicken, but I’m not going to do one of Julia’s roast chickens. Look, they sound great, but require basting and turning like constantly (like, I don’t know how you keep the oven temp up you’re basting it and turning it so much), and Ina Garten’s roast chicken turns out incredible for me every time and it’s a real leave-it-alone-and-let-the-magic-happen kinda deal which works for me when I’m trying to learn a basic ass sauce that everyone else already knows how to make. Plus I gotta lemon, head of garlic that’s getting old,  and some fresh thyme I really wanna shove up there. There’s a certain catharsis to it. But I’m gonna use Julia’s pan sauce method instead of Ina’s gravy, which means adding carrots to the pan I’m roasting the bird in, then sauteing minced shallots in the pan juices while the chicken rests, deglazing with more chicken stock, reducing, and adding butter.
But I’ll try to carve it for the I-don’t-knowth time after watching Julia and Jacques and a bunch of other videos and I’ll see if it goes any better this time around.
So here we go!
Barefoot Contessa aka Ina Garten’s Roast Chicken
Sidebar: Links to my favorite relatively fuss-free roast chickens:
This one from Ina is great too, but Luke doesn’t so much truck with fennel, so I don’t do this one anymore:
If you don’t want to stuff your bird full of the aromatics, try Jacque Pepin’s Skillet Roasted Chicken with Natural Juices
Jacques Pepin’s Basic Roast Chicken | New York Times
or Matty Matheson’s easy-ass no-truss bird that cooks in like 45-60 minutes.
Matty Matheson: Winner Winner Chicken Dinner | It’s Suppertime for Munches / Vice: (7:19 for the roast chicken)
Just go to her site. It’s really one of the easiest and most consistently good recipes for roast chicken I’ve ever tried. Are there better out there, yeah probably. If I’m making simple sides, I’ll experiment with something more fussy, but this is the one to make if you want to focus on your sides or if you’re making other things that need to be watched closely.
I added some carrots to the pot, and I use the carrots and onions to lift the chicken off the bottom a little bit. Then I usually add a ¼ cup of water or stock to the bottom of the pot when it’s got about 20 minutes to go. Oh, and the cook time in my oven is usually about an hour 20 minutes instead of 30. That’s when my thigh temp hits 165.
Bird goes in the oven, 425 for 80-90 minutes.
Boiled Potatoes – no recipe!
The last of the garden baby potatoes for the year were starting to sprout. And these only lasted this long because I think they were small russet potatoes and the skins were ugly, so I peeled those, boiled them in salted water, threw in some butter and salt, chuffed them a little, and stuck a dish towel over them until ready to serve. Just tossed in the microwave for 45 seconds so I could get these out of the way early to focus on the other stuff. Served with some minced parsley and sauce mornay. Could have done without the latter, but we’ll get to that.
Asperges au Naturel [Boiled Asparagus – hot] (Child 436)
Julia says “We have tested every asparagus cooking method we have heard of—peeled, unpeeled, boiled butts, steamed tips—and can say categorically that the freshest, greenest, and most appetizing asparagus is cooked by the French method” (435). So…. There ya go.
Sidebar: Yeah, that wasn’t working, but the peeler did fine. Maybe not on really fat asparagus, but then just do another couple of passes on the super fat end. Have a good peeler, use that shit. Made quick work of it.
To do this, I have to peel. Julia says the peeler will do me no good as it doesn’t go deep enough. She says “hold the butt end up” and “peel off the outer skin with a sharp, small knife, going as deep as 1/16 of an inch at the butt in order to expose the tender, moist flesh” (435). Then “gradually make the cut shallower until you come up to the tender green portion near the tip. Shave off any scales which cling to the spear below the tip” and then wash the peeled spears in cold water, and drain.
Then you line them up so the tips are in the same place, and tie them in bundles of about 3 ½” with string in two places, and cut off the butts to even everything out. But leave a couple spears out of the bundles so you can test for doneness. (Which I forgot to do.)
And if you’re doing this ahead of time, which I am, set them upright in ½” of cold water, cover with a plastic bag, and refrigerate.
HOLD UNTIL THE BIRD IS RESTING.
Then in a pot big enough that you can put the asparagus bunches in horizontally, in enough boiling salted water to cover the bundles:
Sidebar: Uhm, I did this for 8 minutes, and I still think I over-cooked them a little. Can’t imagine what nearly twice that would have done.
  Boil slowly, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes, until a knife pierces the butt end easily. The spears “should bend a little, but should not be limp or droopy. Eat the loose spear to test for doneness” (437).
Sidebar: Yeah, this was genius. I mean, I’m always scrambling to get green veg done in the end so it doesn’t get cold. Will use this again for sure. Probably could have worked for the potatoes too.
Cut and remove the strings. If not using right away, they will keep warm for 20-30 minutes covered with a napkin. Put asparagus on a platter, then place that platter on top of the water you boiled the asparagus in, then put a napkin on the asparagus. She says.
Sauce Velouté, medium consistency (57) and Sauce Mornay (61)
The great sauce journey begins here. Bear with me, I’m learning, and I’m trying to learn with Julia.
The White Mother Sauces “stem from those two cousins, béchamel and velouté. Both use a flour and butter roux as a thickening agent but béchamel is a milk based sauce while the velouté has a fish, meat, or poultry base” read: stock (54), which is the version I’ll be doing today.
Thin Sauce or soup                        1 Tb per cup of liquid Medium, general purpose sauce    1-1/2 Tb flour per cup of liquid Thick sauce                                   2 Tb flour per cup of liquid Soufflé base                                  3 Tb flour per cup of liquid
And then the mornay sauce is a medium consistency velouté or béchamel with swiss cheese, or a combination of swiss and parmesan mixed in after the original sauce is completed. 
2 T butter 3 T flour 2 cups boiling stock Salt and white pepper
Instructions for Sauce Veloute from Mastering the Art of French Cooking (57):
Sidebar: Maybe my low heat is lower than Julia’s. But I had to turn this up to a medium-low to get anything to happen here. Or maybe the time here really depends on the kind of pot. I was using an enameled cast iron pot, so I upped that temp a bit. Eventually there was some light frothing, but it took forever to get there at low.
1)   In a heavy bottomed [at least] 6-cup saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Blend in the flour, and cook slowly, stirring, until the butter and flour froth together for 2 minutes without coloring. This is now a white roux.
  Sidebar: Is it supposed to smell like butter cookies? I’ve heard popcorn, but mine really smelled like cookies. Hmmm.
2)   Remove roux from heat. As soon as roux has stopped bubbling, pour in all the [boiling chicken stock] at once. Immediately beat vigorously with a wire whip to blend liquid and roux, gathering in all bits of roux from the inside edges of the pan.
3)   Set saucepan over moderately high heat and stir with the wire whip until the sauce comes to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring.
4)   Remove from heat, and beat in salt and white pepper.
Now we’re gonna turn that into the Sauce Mornay with the addition of the following:
¼ cup swiss coarsely grated ¼ cup parmesan finely grated Pinch nutmeg Pinch cayenne (optional) 1-2T softened additional butter (optional)
1)    Take the sauce veloute you made, and right after it has boiled for one minute, while it is still hot, remove from the heat and beat in the cheeses until melted and blended with the sauce.
2)    Season to taste with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and optional cayenne.
3)    Off heat, and just before serving, stir in optional additional butter a bit at a time, if using. (I didn’t.)
If not using right away, you can pour a thin layer of melted butter, or stock over the top to keep it from skinning over.
Julia’s Pan Sauce for the roasted chicken (242):
½ Tb minced shallots 1 cup chicken stock Salt and pepper 1-2 Tb softened butter
1)   While the chicken is resting, scoop the onions and carrots that are left in the roasting pan out, leaving as much liquid as possible.
2)   Remove all but two Tablespoons of fat from the pan. Stir in the minced shallots and cook slowly for 1 minute. Add the stock and boil rapidly over high heat, scraping up coagulated roasting juices with a wooden spoon and letting liquid reduce to about ½ cup.
3)   Season with salt and pepper
Sidebar: This is where I fucked up and just scrapped the whole thing. I was distracted trying to carve the bird, and added the butter in all at once with the pan still on the heat, and it never came together. Looked like a nice reduction until I added the butter. So yeah, do that part slowly or you’ll have a broken fatty mess. I did not serve this.
4)   Off-heat, and just before serving, swirl in the enrichment butter by bits until it has been absorbed.
5)   Pour a spoonful of the sauce over the chicken, and send the rest to the table in a sauceboat
  It’s off the menu. Let’s say no more about it.
Carve my damn chicken. 
So I think I watched all the videos again today, plus a few more. And I think I know where I’ve been going wrong, but I was focused on the task and didn’t take any pictures.
But here are my favorite videos for learning:
Jacques Pepin Techniques: How to Carve a Roast Chicken
But here’s the thing: so easy, so fast, watched it a dozen times, but honestly he goes so fast that I need some more help.
Chris Carves a Roast Chicken | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appetit
This one may have helped me the most this time around because he really slows down to show you the parts where you’re exploring the joints with the knife to find those connection points.
Then there’s this:
At 21:26 you can see how a Fak carves a chicken, I guess.
Here’s some notes. I let this bird rest for 20 minutes, and I think it could have gone another 10. It was still very hot, and I rushed my pan sauce and fucked it because my bird rest timer went off, and I could have ignored that and saved my pan sauce. So 30 minutes is not too long for a 5 pound bird.
Dinnertime
Roast Chicken Dinner with Julia Child’s Asperges au Naturel [Boiled Asparagus], Sauce Mornay, roast chicken pan sauce, and boiled potatoes
So, how did it all go?
Well I think the chicken carving turned out way better than usual. I wasn’t serving it to a bunch of people, and Luke and I both wanted thigh and leg tonight, so that’s what I plated, and I didn’t bother to separate them, and I think it doesn’t quite look like a drunken monkey did it. The breasts came off fine, though perhaps I still left a lot of scrap behind, and the meat shredded a bit. The breasts were slightly overcooked as I let the chicken go in the oven the full 90 minutes, when I knew from last time I should have taken it out at 80. Not a huge deal. They sliced up nicely for leftovers.
Chicken was fucking great, even without the pan gravy. Good job Ina and good job me.
The asparagus was good, not great. I’m not sure why I would peel it, but Julia says it’s best that way.
Here’s the thing: we’ve improved vegetables a lot, even the ones we just get at basic ass stores. Has the skin on asparagus gotten less tough in the last 50 years? I kinda think maybe. I think I’m going to stick with sautéing nice thin asparagus in oil in a really hot pan. I’ll try this again when I can only get big fat asparagus. Or I won’t because I don’t love big fat asparagus.
The mornay sauce was pretty bland. I tasted it, and maybe it needed more salt, or maybe more cheese, but mostly I think it wasn’t a great pairing with the asparagus, which needed something with more vinegar I think. I thought the swiss would work with the asparagus and potatoes, but it didn’t taste like swiss. It seemed on the sweet side, and still smelled like cookies. I’ll keep working on it, and try to bring the leftover sauce back and incorporate it into a pasta with cheese, adding more cheese. Not sure what to use this sauce for, or if I made it right. But it wasn’t quite right for this.
I watched a couple videos. I don’t think my roux was cooking hot enough. I think I needed a more vigorous cook when it was the flour and the butter, but Julia said low, so low and slow I went. I’ll keep learning, but this wasn’t the shit, it was… I swear it was cookie dough. Luke thought maybe I used his Krusteaz pancake mix which we did totally have in an unlabeled Tupperware under the counter, but I know I filled my flour container from the bag and labeled it with my OCD labelmaker. Still, it was weird. And probably wrong.
Potatoes were perfect, and because they were tiny russet babies they soaked up all the chicken juices, just parsley and salt and butter. Great little potatoes I grew. Good job me again.
Nice fucking dinner, basically. But the asparagus and the mornay sauce were meh at best.
New Segment
I’ve been working on a sort of post cooking project emotional check in on a four point scale based on how motivated I feel to treat, challenge, or punish myself in the end. It goes like this:
4: Feel great, up to new challenges. I’ll make a new cocktail I’ve never tried before, and document it in another post here.
3: Feel pretty good, but not especially inspired. I’ll make a classic comfort cocktail I know by heart. Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Negroni, etc.
2: I’m OK, but whooped and can do no more. I’ll have a glass of wine or a beer, a straight whiskey, a Rum and Coke or a G&T.
1: I’m really feeling pretty fucked up about the whole thing and not good about myself at all. Like I don’t deserve good. I only deserve bad. I’ll take a shot of Malort. And I’ll have a good long think about what I’ve done.
0: I’m actually dead. The recipe finished me off. I can drink nothing and have put myself to bed. Done because me chefed too menny.
Tonight I had a beer. I wasn’t whooped, but none of the experiments turned out great. My chicken carving went better than ever before, so that was pretty dope. I still don’t know what the deal is with chicken wings.
Goodnight!

Comics read these past two weeks:
Marvel Comics:
The Incredible Hulk (1968) Annual #8 and #238-243 and the Hulk stories in Hulk Comic (1979) #14-20 and #26-28
Within the main The Incredible Hulk book, I went from May 1979 to October 1979. Issues #238-242 were entirely written by Roger Stern and then issue #243 was only plotted by Roger Stern and then was scripted by Steven Grant. Every issue was penciled by Sal Buscema. Issues #238-240 were inked by Jack Abel, Mike Esposito, and Joe Sinnott respectively. And then issues #241-243 were actually inked by Sal Buscema himself.
In this batch of issues, the Hulk is told that his tragically deceased love Jarella’s body is being kept as a specimen in a lab at Gamma Base. Whether or not that’s true remains to be seen, but this is presumably the set-up for a storyline in which the Hulk attacks Gamma Base so that he can “make them leave Jarella alone.” Notably, neither General Ross or Doc Samson is currently at Gamma Base. Instead, Glenn Talbot has taken command of Gamma Base in the wake of Ross’ mental breakdown and Samson’s resignation in order to take care of Ross, and he intends to use this position to finally take care of the Hulk once and for all as this batch of issues also contained Betty Ross and Talbot’s inevitable divorce, for which Talbot blames Bruce and has vowed revenge.
Also of note is that Fred Sloan began writing a book about the Hulk from the sympathetic approach as his friend. He met with Betty Ross in this batch of issues and is intending to appear on a TV show to promote the book alongside Rick Jones, who is now a music performer. We haven’t seen Rick in this book in years and I think this is actually a really interesting context to bring him back. Though I would be most interested in an deeper look into Betty’s perspective on the Hulk. There’s also a mention of him trying to get in touch with the Defenders, but I assume that he won’t end up succeeding in that.
And the Annual was written by John Byrne and Roger Stern, penciled by Sal Buscema, and inked by Alfredo Alcala. It featured the first meeting and fight between the Hulk and the new Alpha Fight character Walter Langkowski, the Sasquatch. This new character is similar to Bruce in that he’s a scientist that can transform into a gamma monster, but very much unlike Bruce’s he’s in control of this process and he maintains his one personality in both forms. He also still has his prestigious scientific job and has a positive relationship with his government as he’s a member of a government-supported superhero team. The story has him attack Bruce to purposefully antagonize him into transforming into the Hulk so that he can learn which of them is stronger for the sake of scientific research, a reckless and completely unnecessary approach as Bruce was calm and would not have transformed into the Hulk otherwise, but then the subsequent battle endangers a civilian. This new character is even more of a foil to Bruce than Samson is, and while I don’t expect them to fight again anytime soon, they will again eventually and I am interested to see that.
Hulk Comic was a weekly British anthology magazine that printed 3-page black-and-white stories, some of which were entirely original and some of which were edited versions of previously published stories that were altered to fit into multiple-part 3-page storylines. I’m only reading the original Hulk stories. This batch of issues of Hulk Comic took me from June 1979 to September 1979. The original Hulk story in issue #14 was the last part of a storyline from the last batch and was written by Steve Parkhouse, as was the original Hulk storyline across issues #15-20 which had the Hulk teaming up with a mad scientist’s rejected defective monster creations against their creator, saving the mad scientist’s innocent daughter from her father’s madness in the process. And the original Hulk storyline across issues #26-28 was written by Steve Moore and was a super fun story in which the Hulk is captured by aliens and then at the end is returned to earth because he was way more trouble than he was worth. All of these stories were penciled by Paul Neary and inked by David Lloyd.
Fawcett Comics:
the four stories drawn by Harry Parkhurst in Golden Arrow (1942) #4
This issue was released in the spring of 1946. The writer isn’t known for any of these stories. I had largely finished up my readthrough of the western comics that Harry Parkhurst drew for Fawcett Comics in December, but I didn’t get to this issue which I had been planning on so I just read these four stories now in January. The Hopalong Cassidy and Golden Arrow stories drawn by him that I read ended up being pretty random and very much not the entirety of his work for on those characters, but I feel satisfied with what I’ve read of them for now.
the Captain Marvel stories in Whiz Comics (1940) #44-45 and in Captain Marvel Adventures (1941) #25-26
Within this batch of classic Captain Marvel appearances, I went from July 1943 to August 1943. There is one Captain Marvel story per issue of Whiz Comics and four per issue of Captain Marvel Adventures for a total of ten Captain Marvel stories read in this batch.
I was really charmed by the detail in the Captain Marvel story in Whiz Comics #44 that the door to Billy’s office at Station Whiz reads “Captain Marvel and Billy Batson: We Make The News- We Give The News!” Sterling Morris also refers to Billy as Captain Marvel’s “friend and partner.” Then the Captain Marvel story in Whiz Comics #45 showed that Billy and Cap both have desks in Billy’s office and when Billy’s in then there’s an “out to lunch” sign on Cap’s desk. Both of these stories were written by Otto Binder and drawn by C.C. Beck.
I also really liked a bit in one of the Captain Marvel stories in Captain Marvel Adventures #26 where Cap performs a ventriloquist act with a doll of Billy at a show to encourage buying bonds where he says “Stop following me around! Wherever I go, you pop up!” and he makes the Billy doll respond “I can’t help myself! You’ve got strings on me!” to which Cap says “Even though we have arguments, I guess we’ll have to stick together!” and the Billy doll responds “Yeah! We’re kind of wrapped up in each other, huh, Captain Marvel?” This story was written by Otto Binder and the art is tentatively credited on the Grand Comics Database to C.C. Beck.
Also, the installment of the Monster Society of Evil serial in Captain Marvel Adventures #26 was notably the first full appearance of Mr. Mind (we first heard his voice in issue #22) but neither Cap nor Billy recognized the little worm as Mr. Mind because they were expecting someone a bit more intimidating than that. This story was also written by Otto Binder and drawn by C.C. Beck.
Quality Comics:
the Red Bee stories in Hit Comics (1940) #1-24
This batch of stories covered the entirety of the original Red Bee’s existence and went from April 1940 to August 1942. The stories are all signed as being by “B.H. Apiary” which is very obviously a pseudonym. According to the Grand Comics Database, the stories in issues #1-8 are drawn by Charles Nicholas, in issue #9 by Saul Rosen, and in issues #10-24 by Witmer Williams. Some of the scripts for the stories are credited or tentatively credited to Toni Blum, but it’s unclear to me if it’s possible that she wrote all of them.
I decided to read through these stories because I thought that the concept of a character that fought crime with a single trained bee was legitimately awesome, and I did ultimately enjoy them, but I think that this character’s stories would have been better if the Red Bee had an origin story, the relationship between Rick Raleigh and Michael the bee was portrayed in more depth, Michael the bee was an overall more prominent character (because he’s what’s really unique and interesting here), and Rick Raleigh had a stronger supporting cast of characters to be invested in. My two favorite stories were the one in issue #8 and the one in issue #19 because they both had Raleigh teaming-up with a one-shot character that he interacts with throughout the story. I don’t think it’s necessarily impossible to achieve the same effect with Michael the bee even though he can’t talk, but I’m sympathetic that it’s not as straightforward to write.
Eastern Color Printing Company:
the Connie pages in Famous Funnies (1934) #21–22 and #25-27 and #30-50
Famous Funnies primarily reprinted newspaper comics, with some original content in its later years. The “Connie” newspaper strip, which was written and drawn by Frank Godwin, began in 1927 and ended in 1941. Within the Famous Funnies book, I went from March 1936 to August 1938. There isn’t a way to check when the specific Connie strips reprinted in this book were first published.
The stories in this batch of issues were actually noticeably different than the ones in the first batch, which primarily depicted Connie Kurridge as a young lady detective. Typical bases for stories were: Connie being hired through the detective agency she works for; Connie being asked for help from an acquaintance who had been falsely accused of a crime, typically thievery, and needed help clearing their name; Connie being hired by someone visiting her at home, which would typically be revealed by Connie as being the true culprit of the crime that wanted her to find someone else guilty; and criminals who’d Connie had repeatedly failed trying and failing to mess with her. The majority of the stories in this batch of issues weren’t detective stories, but instead depicted Connie as young socialite in the 30s. I already know that at some point in time this strip evolved into a science fiction one, but I’m not sure when and I’m not sure what other phases it could have had and how long they lasted.
Connie’s two friends Jack and Willy, who we saw a little bit of in the last batch as they are all in a detective agency together, were featured more in this batch, but within the context of young people’s social life and not as much as working detectives. Jack seems to be about Connie’s age and they’re both interested in each other but not quite fully dating yet, with Connie notably still having a bit of an eye for other boys. And Willy’s a bit younger than them both and is a little less mature and can be a bit mischievous.
It’s also interesting to see how the page formatting changes over time. Famous Funnies was the first legitimate ongoing comic book and the pages of the early issues are noticeably cramped and had tiny lettering, while now the panels have space to breath a bit and the lettering has gotten bigger.
Dell Comics:
the Scribbly pages in Popular Comics (1936) #6-8 and in The Funnies (1936) #2-8
Popular Comics and The Funnies both primarily reprinted newspaper comics with some amount of original content. The Popular Comics issues went from May 1936 to April 1936 and within The Funnies I went from October 1936 to May 1937. “Scribbly” was written and drawn by Sheldon Mayer, who had very recently turned 19 when the first story was printed. The stories feature the eponymous Scribbly, an excitable burgeoning boy cartoonist with a penchant for drawing on everything around with, both in homes and outside. There is one Scribbly story in Popular Comics #6-8 and two Scribbly stories in Popular Comics #9 and The Funnies #2-8 for a total of nineteen Scribbly stories read in this batch.
Scribbly is both a kid with delusions of grandeur and a prodigy. A good example of this is one of the Scribbly stories in The Funnies #2, in which a local candy store has put up a drawing Scribbly did in their window and, when Scribbly finds out his mother hasn’t gone to see it yet, he complains “Here I go workin’ my fingers th’ bone drawin’ a cartoon that people all over town are prob’ly talkin’ about by now, an’ my own mother my own mother ain’t got time to go around th’ corner to see it!” Of course, Scribbly is very out of touch with the reality of his career as a cartoonist. But, unbeknownst to Scribbly, his cartoonist idol Ving Parker has been searching for him because he’s seen Scribbly’s work and is legitimately impressed. When he overhears Scribbly complain that he doesn’t have a real desk to work on (“An’ another thing- here I am- almost famous already, an’ I haven’t even got a desk to work on! How can I concentrate on th’ floor like this? Huh?) and Scribbly’s mother say that she’ll only buy him a real desk once he starts making a good amount of money a week with his cartoons, his response is to purchase a drawing table for Scribbly and send it to him as an anonymous sincere admirer of his work. The end of the page is him watching through a window as a thrilled Scribbly opens his present and then walking home smiling about it. This dichotomy, born of Scribbly’s naivety and genuine talent, and the overall pleasantness of the world Scribbly inhabits, is very fun to read about.
In the very first Scribbly story, Scribbly is punished by a teacher for drawing in class, but he gets the last laugh when the teacher believes she’s settled the matter by having him write “I must not draw pictures in school” a hundred times and sends him home, only the then turn over the page and see that he’s drawn an unflattering caricature of her on the back. Over the course of this batch of stories, Scribbly meets his idol Ving Parker, who offers to mentor Scribbly and has Scribbly come live with him for a while (a series of events beyond even Scribbly’s wildest dreams: “all my life I wanted to see a real cartoonist- just to look at him- or- or- touch his hand”). Through this relationship, Ving Parker’s boss hires Scribbly to draw a comic strip for his newspaper, making him now a professionally accomplished cartoonist. The last story of this batch has Scribbly attending the prestigious Cartoonist’s Annual Dinner, where Scribbly gets to speak on the radio, introduced as “the youngest cartoonist in the world,” and charmingly first says “Gee- Hello, Ma!” The Scribbly stories in The Funnies go to issue #29, which is followed up by a 59-issue run in DC’s All-American Comics (1939). So far I have found that Scribbly lives in a charming world and that the events of his life are delightful to read about and I’m looking forward to continuing following this character and seeing how he evolves in the rest of the 1930s and into the 1940s.
This is my first time reading Sheldon Mayer’s work and I’m finding that he is, as reputed, an actual comics genius with great writing and art and one thing I’m very impressed with is the whole concept behind “Why Big Brothers Leave Home”. In The Funnies #2, after his little brother has annoying interrupted his work, Scribbly finally gets inspiration. He explains the concept to another kid in issue #3 (where he also fantasizes that Ving Parker, who he has yet to meet, will be impressed with the inevitable fame and prestige this will bring him) as a comic strip about how annoying little siblings cause big brothers to leave home. In issue #4 the call is made by Scribbly addressing the readers, telling them to write down what their younger siblings do to annoy them and send it to him. The strip then finally actually first appears in issue #5, a 1-row 4-panel strip drawn in a slightly simpler style than the main story, that is presented as Scribbly’s own work that’s accompanying the stories by Sheldon Mayer about him. I just think that this is conceptually so cool, a boy cartoonist character whose own cartoons accompany the cartoons about him. It’s adorable and it’s got me excited to see how else Scribbly’s career will be presented over the years as he inevitably grows.
Eternity Comics:
Spicy Tales (1988) #1-3
These issues of Spicy Tales reprinted comic strips that were originally published in Frank Armer’s Culture Publications pulp magazines. Pulp magazines primarily consisted of text stories accompanied by some art, so Frank Armer’s line containing comic stories was unique. The material of these comics ranged from slightly suggestive to sado-masochist with the material during the pulp magazine’s peak in the 30s being the most sexual and the material published in the 40s being much less so due to outside pressure to tame down the content. My understanding is that this is largely also true for the text stories.
And the rest of this comics round-up is under a cut due to the discussion of said sexual material (and a bit on the racist content):
There were nine 2-page Sally the Sleuth stories, all written and drawn by the character’s creator Adolphe Barreaux, reprinted from the November 1934 to May 1935 and February 1936 to March 1936 issues of Spicy Detective. In her first ever appearance, the story in the November 1934 issue, Sally infiltrates a gang hideout. Once inside, she finds a closet full of costumes and decides to “make a quick change and fool the gang with their own tricks.” This does not work out for her as a couple of the gang members happen to walk in after she’s taken her clothes off but before she’s put a costume on, and she’s captured and chained up in her underwear. Fortunately for Sally, Peanuts, her kid assistant who she left on guard, spots her through a window and gets the Chief, Sally’s boss at the detective agency, for help, who storms the building with a few guys and rescues her before the gang members get to have any fun with Sally. Unfortunately for Sally, this isn’t really a great start for a character. The rest of the Sally the Sleuth stories in this batch are a mixed bag. The very next one has Sally solve a murder all on her one, and another woman largely serves the role of the sex appeal. Sometimes Sally purposefully uses men’s attraction to her body to infiltrate criminals’ lairs. Sometimes she’s just in the unfortunate enough position to get her clothes ripped off in the course of trying a different approach. Though she’s usually left in her underwear and her boobs being completely exposed isn’t common. And the violence towards her is usually limited to how she’s captured and restrained by men with the implication of what might have happened had she not been rescued in time. Sometimes she’s the driving force behind the criminal of the story being captured. And sometimes she largely just serves to get captured, get in her underwear, then get rescued.
And there were also three 4-page Sally the Sleuth stories, also written and drawn by Adolphe Barreaux, which were reprinted from the April 1941, December 1941, and June 1942 issues of Spicy Detective. These comics were from when the publisher had to tone down some of the sexual content, but they very much aren’t sex-free. The story in the June 1942 issue is actually the most violent out of all the Sally the Sleuth stories published in this batch of Spicy Tales, with Sally’s sexually-charged torture not just being left as a hypothetical implication but depicted as a panel of a captured Sally in her underwear and on the ground as guy yanks on her hair and swings a whip down from above her, which is followed by a panel of Sally kneeling on the ground, facing away from the viewer, with stark black lines all across her back and the caption “The brute leaves Sally sobbing on the cold cellar floor.” Otherwise, I think that these Sally the Sleuth stories are genuinely a bit tamer than the ones from the 1930s with Sally not purposefully seducing men in the line of her work, fewer near misses of sexual torture, and briefer scenes of her in her underwear while being restrained by men themselves as opposed to being tied to something. Though I do have to wonder if the Sally the Sleuth stories from the 1930s republished in Spicy Tales are going to get even more sexual before they get brought down to this.
There were three 8-page Dan Turner, Hollywood Detective, stories, written by the character’s creator Robert Leslie Bellem and drawn by Adolphe Barreaux, which were reprinted from the January 1943, June 1943, and January 1944 issues of Hollywood Detective. This is least sexual out of all of the comics reprinted in Spicy Tales so far with only relatively brief suggestive moments between Dan Turner and female suspects. The most suggestive one is probably the part of the January 1943 issue where he tackled a female suspect (which isn’t drawn as sexual as it would be in these other comics) and then, when he’s on top of her, says “talk or I’ll kiss the bejeepers out of you!” I’m not sure how much the limited sexual content has to do with the fact that these stories have a male protagonist or if it’s just because of the era these comics were published in as there has yet to be a Dan Turner story reprinted from the 1930s for me to compare the 1940s comics to.
There were five 2-page Polly of the Plains stories reprinted from the November 1936 to March 1937 issues of Spicy Western. Bill Everett wrote and drew the first two stories and the rest were all written and drawn by Joseph Szokoli. The Polly of the Plains stories were the most sexual and the most violent out of all the comics reprinted in Spicy Tales so far. The story so far is based around the events following Polly being kidnapped by the racistly stereotyped “Pancho” and with the change in writers that Pancho kidnapped Polly for ransom was largely dropped, and the character is instead motivated almost solely by his attraction to Polly. A scene in the January 1937 story depicts Polly as topless, her hands tied above her head by a chain attached to the ceiling, with an at most forlorn expression as she’s whipped in the back by her captor in an attempt to “tame ze leetle hell-cat!” A scene in the March 1937 story has Jean, Polly’s boyfriend’s sister, who has by this point also been kidnapped by Pancho, topless and tied to a chair with many bleeding circular wounds on and above her books from where her captor has tortured her by repeatedly pressing a lit cigarette to her skin, though the actual torturing is undepicted, with a similarly at most forlorn expression. Notably, the clothes on the girls in the stories (if they had any to begin with) will improbably rip or tear off for anything, and there’s ultimately little to no effort on part of the characters or their environment to tactfully cover certain parts, meaning that the Polly stories feature significantly more uncensored boobs than any of the other Spicy Tales content so far.
There were three 2-page Diana Daw stories from the November 1934 issue of Spicy Adventure and then one 2-page story, which picks up right where the November 1934 issue left the character off, in the February 1935 issue of Spicy Adventure. These stories were written by Robert Maxwell and drawn by Max Plaisted. These stories get the designation of being the most racist content reprinted in Spicy Tales so far. The structure of the Diana Daw stories is that Diana Daw is captured by a villain in each story and then saved by a man at the beginning of the next, only to be captured again by some new villain before the end of the 2-page story. The original premise is that Diana is an explorer in Africa searching for a legendary diamond mine, but with each new man that saves her from her various captors- so far the medieval knight Prince Baldwin, a brain damaged U.S. Marine who believed himself to be Tarzan, a mad scientist, and an African tribesman- it seems less and less likely that she’ll get back on the hunt for that diamond mine. This African jungle setting provides the opportunity for not the mere stereotypical portrayals of Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, or Native American people like some of these other comics contain, but full-on caricatures of Black people. As for the sexual content, Diana is stripped of her clothes by her first captors in the first story- though her boobs covered by either foliage and her hands- and she’s never quite able to fully recover them. Diana consistently manages to recover some amount of clothing and consistently is stripped again, with the effort taken to censor her body over time not being taken as consistently as it was in the beginning.

U.S. Navy AARGM-ER missile hits moving target at sea in more recent test
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 12/09/2022 - 15:00 in Armaments, Military
U.S. Navy photo of a launch of an AARGM-ER from the F/A-18 Super Hornet.
The U.S. Navy and Northrop Grumman conducted another flight test of the AGM-88G Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile Extended Range (AARGM-ER), which saw the missile hit an operationally representative sea target in motion.
The fourth successful flight test was conducted from an F/A-18 Super Hornet aircraft on November 30 at the Point Mugu Sea Range, on the southern coast of California.
This is the latest in a series of development test events that will ensure that AARGM-ER can meet the required objectives. The Navy plans to continue the tests in preparation for the initial operational capacity in fiscal year 2023.
“The performance of AARGM-ER during testing continues to validate the missile’s ability to detect, identify, locate and effectively engage critical air defense targets from an extended range,” said Captain Alex Dutko, Navy Program Manager for Direct and Time Sensitive Attack (PMA-242). “This test proved the ability of systems to engage moving sea targets, a vital capacity to support our Navy’s ability to control sea routes during the conflict. Congratulations to the government/industry team for their continued focus on providing this crucial capacity to our fighters."
Tumblr media
Northrop Grumman is currently under contract to supply AARGM-ER production units and has received a low-cost initial production contract for the first and second batches of AARGM-ER.
AARGM-ER takes advantage of existing AARGM sensors, electronic and digital models with the addition of a new high-performance aerial vehicle, solid fuel rocket engine and advanced warhead to provide vital air counter-defense capability for U.S. Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps fighters.
“The need for a reliable, resilient and survival weapon continues to grow as our opponents’ threat systems become more far-reaching and more lethal,” said Gordon Turner, vice president of advanced weapons at Northrop Grumman. "AARGM-ER continues to demonstrate the ability to meet the requirements of the mission in an accessible way and protect those who protect our country."
The AARGM-ER is being integrated into the Navy's F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler aircraft, as well as the F-35 aircraft.

The European region accounted for the significant share of the dairy processing equipment market and was estimated to be USD 2,527.2 million in 2021. The dairy products from the European region are exported to most of the regions of the world. Europe has granted reduced tariff preferences to a reasonable number of countries and currently, only a few match EU standards with regard to dairy product quality. By the support of logistics industries, Germany has accounted as the largest producer of milk.
According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Germany was accounted as the largest producer of milk in the EU in 2017. The logistics industry plays an important role in the German dairy sector in procuring the raw milk from the farm, supplying the processed milk and products to processors of consumer products, and reaching the retailers or distributors. According to the Global Dairy Trade Portal, cheese was the main export product of the German dairy industry in 2016 and 2017.

♥ Nothing has changed from the original posts beyond the “bonus images” being cleaned up. So if you’ve already downloaded those files, you can ignore all of these. This is simply a round-up/collection post for the sake of having everything in a nice, neat little pile like all of the previous seasons. ♥ Previous season posts: Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers, Frontier, Savers, Xros Wars, Xros Wars: 7 Death Generals, Xros Wars: Young Hunters, Appmon. Franchise master post over here. ♥ If you have any problems with the download links, let me know, and I’ll toss you an alternate link or split them smaller or something. ♥ Have fun making a buttload of icons or edits or whatever. ♥ As always: you can expect all of this to be re-done if blu-rays ever get into my possession.
