Boutta jump back into older!alpha!eddie, I think I’m going to finish it today and I’ll hopefully be posting it either this evening or tomorrow sometime!! She’s a long one, it’ll probably end up being around 15k.😅
Parenting 101 is easily the best comic I have picked up in a very long time. It's in the small details but the artwork and general flow sucked me in right away. The composition of frames and the overlying story work in perfect harmony and if someone asked me to pick a favorite moment I would probably melt into a little pile, unable to do so.
I was gifted (by Irish ofc) Parenting 101, Scorched Earth and the Butchlander bookmark from Vanshound's collection.
Vans has posted about their architecture work and it's very visible in this book, especially in regards to cleanliness and stunning backgrounds.
The way pages shift from dark to light also aids the general quality but- I would be lying if I tried calling this book anything but perfect.
Admittedly as a supe!Butcher fan, I loved this timeline. Picking up from the end of season 3 we get to see our two favorite co-parents somehow stumble upon their truce thanks to Ryan.
The conflict was kept in line with the show and left me wondering at times if I was confusing 'Parenting 101' with the canon show.
TL;DR: If you are a butchlander fan, Homelander fan, Billy Butcher fan or a general enjoyer of art that is so perfect you'll want to stare at it for hours on end, please consider supporting this absolute masterpiece.

okay here goes what do you all think the MOST underappreciated mcr song is. i don't mean deep cuts that are really good, i mean the song with the biggest disparity between how great you think it is vs how much people seem to talk about/appreciate it. (obviously this is dependent on both your taste and also your perception of fan discussions so i'd be interested to hear explanations too)
like. for me there are lots but the strongest example is either tomorrow's money (genuinely overlooked to an degree bordering on criminal) or thank you for the venom (even though everybody loves it and while it's not my favourite, i think it should be regarded as one of Thee quintessential mcr songs alongside wttbp, helena, inok etc. and i'm not sure why it's not)
