Challenge #14
In your own space, create a promo and/or rec list for someone new to a fandom. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it and include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I compiled recs for a few of my fandoms for challenge #4, but I wanted to do something slightly different.

My main fandom right now is, and has been for a while, DC comics. The world of DC is vast and pretty much everyone knows one corner or another within it, but a lot of people find comics specifically hard to get into. So I thought I'd make a list of some runs or story arcs I enjoyed!

These aren't comprehensive, or a How To Get Into Comics primer. I'm not an expert, and I have read more of certain group of characters (Bats) than others, even if I want to expand. Here I've mostly tried to make a lists of comics you can read on their own without getting too turned around.

• I keep recommending Wonder Woman: Historia, but it's for good reason. It has only three issues (there were supposed to be more, and there might be at some point, but as it is, the story stands on its own). It tells the story of the Amazons, how they came to be, how Hippolyta became their queen, and how Themyscira was born. It does a lot of interesting thing with the concept of narratives (who they serve, how they're twisted), with a solid feminist stance that often feels missing from Wonder Woman comics, especially recent ones.

• The above rec stands on its own, as I said, but I personally think my experience was enhanced by reading Wonder Woman (1987) #1, another Amazons-origin story that clearly inspired. And although I hesitate to recommend ongoing stories, and I don't trust that the universe this one is set in won't become its own mess sooner rather than later lol, Absolute Wonder Woman is pretty good and feels like it's in conversation with Historia. If you like the miniseries, you might want to check it out.

• Another Wonder Woman comic I'd recommend, since I'm here, it's Wonder Woman: The Once And Future Story by Trina Robbins. It's a one-shot that deals with domestic violence, and it's very 80s at times, but solid, and impactful. 

• Webtoons are a very accessible way to get into comics, and maybe I should've started with these xDD. A lot of people know Wayne Family Adventures, but it's not my favourite, and in recent years it's abandoned their vignette structure in favour of year-long plots in a way I feel does it no favours. The ones I REALLY liked were Zatanna & The Ripper and Vixen: NYC. They have a plot tying them together but they're complete, and they are about less-known characters and include some secondary ones that really shine. In the first one, Zatanna is thrown into the 19th century and has to fight the mysterious, famous serial killer, and in the second one, Mari moves to NYC for college and discovers a lot about her heritage and her powers. The first one includes Constantine, and the second one has Anissa Pierce and Grace Choi as supporting cast (they might sound familiar if you watched Black Lightning), as well as Beast Boy, for example.

• Far Sector (#1-12) by N.K. Jemisin is another good rec. I feel I know just the basics of Green Lantern lore, but this comic works at being self-explanatory, putting us in a new world and showing us its specific rules. It does some interesting things with its sci-fi setting and with its lead character, who I hope I read more about sooner rather than later. Sojourner "Jo" Mullein, the lead, is the Green Lantern in the Absolute universe, as far as I know, but I have my misgivings about that 'verse outside of Wonder Woman and I haven't jumped into it.

• Greg Rucka is one of the most solid comic authors out there, and one that's easier to recommend than my other faves because it feels like SOME of his work is more approachable/self-explanatory lol. There are a lot of things I could rec but for this purpose, I'll go with Gotham Central. It's longer than the recs above (40 issues), and sometimes it touches on events surrounding it at the time, but I think it can be read on its own because the whole point of it is that Batman is in the background, a looming thread or suspicious ally, and not a central figure. It focuses on the police force, with all it entails, but it's good writing and it has some amazing story arcs, especially for Renee Montoya.

• Oracle: Year One (in Batman Chronicles #5). If you never read a Bat-related story other than this one in your life, that'd be fine by me lol. This should be longer than one (1) story, not even full-length, in an anthology series, but alas, DC is DC. Still. An absolute must-read, with Barbara coming out of the other end of the Joker's attack. As we all know what happens in The Killing Joke (and that barely focuses on Barbara, lbr), it's unnecessary to revisit it in order to read OY1. 

• Barda by Ngozi Ukazu. It's a YA comic, auto-conclusive. I have not read much (yet) about New Gods, Apokolips and so on, and yet that never detracted from it. It feels like a good way to dip your toe into that side of the comics, which sometimes feels intimidating, and it has a very moving storyline featuring both love and resistance, with a couple that has caught my eye before due to how they seem to defying the usual gender roles.

• Green Lantern/Green Arrow (#1-7). This is the "Hard Traveling Heroes" arc some people might've heard about, where the two characters embark on a road trip across the USA and deal with The Issues plaguing it at the time. It is VERY 70s, in many ways, but I appreciate its candor and its gumption. It includes the introduction of John Stewart, which would be pretty fucking revolutionary today (as comics now are very defanged about racial issues in particular, IMO), and Roy Harper's addiction backstory.

• Devin Grayson is one of my favourite comic authors, but I'm bad at sussing out how accessible she is, as her stories are deeply entrenched in What I Know Best lol. I feel like her Gotham Knights series might be a better fit for this list, but I haven't read it as a run, instead picking specific issues that crossed with one story arc or another. So I will instead recommend her Catwoman run, which stands on its own and indulges in my favourite version of the character --not the more heroic one, but the weirdo misanthrope thief with commitment issues who thrived when challenged LOL. The specific issues you'd have to read are from Catwoman (1993), #54-71. She also wrote the Annual #4 (before issue #54) and #1000000 (before #63), but those are separate from that run and its plots. One thing I really appreciate from this run is how largely absent Batman is from it, allowing Selina to develop outside of that romance.

• Black Lightning: Year One. Only six-issues long, it show us the origins of Jefferson Pierce. It's a light, enjoyable read, and I'd recommend it on its own (+ it has a good portrayal of Talia al Ghul absent in most other comics of its time, which I appreciate!). But I admit I have an agenda when I recommend it... it's because I think it'll make the next installment on the list more understandable for beginners xDD

• The Other History of the DC Universe. This 5-issues mini-series is not a really good fit on this list, but it's one of the best and bravest comics written in this decade and I must recommend it because of it. It expands on important events in the main continuity of comics, specifically those of the post-crisis era (1987-2011), aka my preferred continuity. But with a big difference: it centers the perspective of heroes of colour, giving them voices (and quite critical at that!) and portraying them as complex, full people, with their own shades of grey. It makes a lot of people uncomfortable for it, and for how it doesn't shy away from criticising fan-favourite white heroes, but that's precisely why I love it: it's not trying to appease people or to flatten events and characterisation. The first issue is narrated by Jefferson Pierce, aka Black Lightning, and the last issue by Anissa Pierce, his lesbian daughter. #4 is about Renee Montoya. As you see, some of the previous rec will make you more familiar with them, but I only know the other characters (Mal and Karen in #2, and Tatsu in #3) more superficially and I still found those issues impactful, so YMMV.

• And because I am who I am, I must close this list recommending something about Jason Todd. One day I will make a list featuring ALL the Jason comics I think are worth reading, in the order I'd personally think best, full of asterisks and amendments. But for now, I'll settle for what I think ought to be the first thing one should read about him: Batman #408-411. AKA, his origin story in the post-crisis continuity. Everything else ought to come after that. And it's a good starting point not only for him, but for the Batman mythos at large, as it sets the tone for that new continuity and gives us information about backstories/where the characters are at now. 

Challenge #15
How Did the Fandom Snowflake Challenge Go? Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it.

Well, the part of me that struggles to be Organised, something that doesn't come easily LOL, is a bit miffed that this year I didn't manage to post every entry on its "correct" date xD, but I'm trying not to listen to that part! I did complete the challenge, and I got to talk to a lot of people and add new friends thanks to it. I'm not asking for anything more. Hopefully, even if it won't be as active after the challenge, I'll still find those things in DW!

Challenge #12
Make an appreciation post to those who enhance your fandom life. Appreciate them in bullet points, prose, poetry, a moodboard, a song... whatever moves you!

A lot of My Fandom People are disseminated in other sites, most prominently tumblr and discord. Though I do try to get them into dreamwidth, trust me xD. The environment here is one I prefer, frankly: it's slower, and feels calmer, less prone to the kind of drama that plagues those others. In some cases we follow and talk to each other across all platforms, taking advantage of the benefits of each (curse discord as I might in many areas, in terms of direct messages, it's definitely the best one, for example).

I don't think of myself as a gregarious person; I get exhausted quickly by large crowds, especially. In fandom it's much of the same: I feel more comfortable in small fandoms, and whenever I join a larger one, I set to find a small corner of it where I'm in my element. 

My preferences often make this easier, because they're rarely in alignment with fandom majorities. Thanks to that I've found My People in numerous corners, from the chill group I gathered while The 100 (a large, wank-prone fandom) was airing, to the buddies I've made in the DC fandom (Even Worse xD), to the ones I met in the tiny environment of writeblr, when I was still around those parts, or that I'm meeting now with Pluribus, for example. My oldest fandom friends, I met in the Shadowhunters fandom, my first active one. A trainwreck, but again, I met a lot of people there that I'm still friends with today :D

In many cases we've followed each other through several fandoms, sometimes meeting, sometimes diverging for a while. Sometimes following each other beyond fandom, taking interests in each other's professional pursuits, in each other's personal lives. Some of the people I've met here know things about me that I wouldn't tell those I personally know off-line, and with their mere presence, support, and engagement, have helped me through Some Shit. 

I'll always be glad that I took the leap from lurker to active fandom participant (and creator). I genuinely don't know how I would've stayed sane through my early twenties without the people I met around here. Some of them, I no longer talk with; some just follow me on tumblr and we only sporadically like each other's posts. But others have become lasting friendships that sustain me to this day, And I'm extremely grateful for that!

Challenge #9.
Talk about your favorite tropes in media or transformative works. (Feel free to substitute in theme/motif/cliche if "trope" doesn't resonate with you.)

I'm one of those people whose mind goes momentarily blank when asked "what are your favourite X?", so normally it'd take me a little while to think of this LOL. Luckily, because I signed up for a few challenges this year (most recently seasonsofdrabbles , still open for sign-ups for one more day), I had a list of tropes ready to be copypasted and, why not, expanded upon!

-Amnesia. I am a sucker for a good memory loss plot. Especially when you add angst and manipulation to it. I.e. what if someone did it purposefully? What if someone takes advantage of a character's lack of recalling of XYZ event that would've otherwise make them less trusting? And so on. I have a WIP in the works (so like, maybe for 2028 lol) that centers around such a premise, specifically in the DC fandom, with Jason and the bats. It starts with a Jason who, after being on the wrong end of a psychic attack, had Bruce heal his mind... and take some creative licenses while he was at it. Shortly after I first started developing the idea, Gotham War came out. My story would work very differently, but for a moment there, the coincidence was hilarious. 

-Time travel/loop. Especially when it doesn't fix anything, when it offers you a view of a past you can't fix, or that you can't keep. Unsurprisingly I do have some ideas involving that trope in DC, most notably one inspired by a post about Damian traveling in time and meeting a younger, carefree Talia (the time travel would be part of a larger story where I would reimagine and rework a lot of what canon does with the al Ghuls and that I don't care much for, but still).

And, well, time loops just have GREAT potential for character exploration. You can really get deep inside a character's fears with one!

-Exploration of canon historical settings, lore, worldbuilding, etc. I love it when fics explore what real events in a particular era would've been like in canon, when they get deep into the intricacies of the setting's world, etc. It really enriches the experience, and I hope my future fics can do that, at some point.

-Canon divergence. In general, I love reading and writing stories that explore "what if" scenarios, sticking close to canon up to that point so that we get to see what would diverge... and what wouldn't. When those steps are done with care and forethought, it can be incredible.

-Adapting to disability. I joke about how I love hitting characters with the stick of disability, and I do LOL. I have WIPs in the works (also, again, mostly with DC xD) where I blind characters, paralyze them, cut off their limbs, give them chronic illnesses, terminal illnesses... Or explores the ones canon gave them, too. I love stories that are... less about whump (though that too, sometimes; it's just that I feel it's not a balanced phenomenon, tbh), and more about how the character deals (or doesn't deal) with the changes

-Angst. I'm here to suffer. I want to read stories that leave me melancholic, despondent, shaking, crying. There's nothing like a well-written bittersweet or tragic ending.

-Unusual forms of fics (epistolary, outsider POV, interactive, etc.). It's incredibly fun what people can do with it! I still think about the minesweeper Murderbot fic...

-Adventures, heists, escapes, etc. It's just FUN. And it's plot. I love a navel-gazing character study as much as the next gal but sometimes I want to read and write A Story Featuring My Blorbos.

-Lovers to enemies. Incredibly underrated trope because nothing hits like this, IMO. Again, I obviously like to get my heart broken by fiction xD

-Betrayal. Another angsty trope that hits just right. I love especially to see the aftermath of it: how do the characters move forward? Can they move forward? Should they move forward? It's easy to see why Black Sails is one of my favourite shows lol; I've never seen it used so extensively and yet so differently and so well every. single. time. And I don't watch Doctor Who (I've tried, multiple times, it just doesn't stick), but every once in a while I think about this scene between Twelfth and Clara I've only seen out of context (used masterfully in a Silverflint gifset here btw).

-Mourning. Loss is a terrible and I want more stories that deal with the full scope of it, that truly make you feel it. Pluribus has certainly done it well, in depth, and in all manner of ways, and it's one of the reasons the show stole my heart as quickly as it did.

-Mind control. And specifically characters fighting it, navigating it, having to deal with the consequences of it. In general, stories about compromised agency and how the characters deal with it are my favourite thing in the world.

-Abuse aftermath. The above relates to this: characters with compromised, diminished, and stolen agency and how they fight, fawn, confront, deny, heal, stunt... all of that is catnip to me.

-Role reversal. A particular form of "what if" that can be fascinating if done right! If everything was the same except with this two characters swapping places... what would happen? What would change? What wouldn't? I don't have plans to write it, but I have thought about a role reversal AU for Jason Todd and Mia Dearden (Jason becomes the second Speedy; Mia becomes the second Robin) a lot, ever since a mutual talked to me about his (as yet unrealised, sadly) version of the idea. Even explored it a little bit here.

I could continue, but I feel that the list is more than long enough :P

Challenge #3
Write a love letter to fandom. It might be to fandom in general, to a particular fandom, favourite character, anything at all.

There is a lot of things about fandom that deserve praise, as much as it can get frustrating sometimes. For this particular post, though, I want to give a bit of a shout-out to a small, often overlooked part of fandom: the femslash corners of it <3

In some particular fandoms those corners are pretty huge and active, which is delightful to see, but in general f/f has a smaller presence than other categories. However, the creativity that buzzes in said corners is always beautiful to see. The people who feel passion for it are truly dedicated and put their all into their creations.

I love writing it myself. I'm looking forward to the next instances of the threesentenceficathon or seasonsofdrabbles for that very purpose, because I know those kinds of events are great sources of inspiration for myself (and hey, maybe if I'm lucky, I'll receive some small f/f gifts myself :P). I'm also going to keep an eye on 100femslash and see if I can complete the challenge myself.

And... I was simply going to mention my plans, but I went ahead and dived into the deep end of the pool and created dcfemslashevents , exactly what it says on the tin: a community to host and organise (and boost) femslash events for DC characters! As the sticky post says, there are some plans for this year underway, and I'll likely talk more about it during the Snowflake Challenge, if I get the chance.

Challenge #5
In your own space, create a list of at least three things you'd love to receive, a wishlist of sorts.

Let's keep it to the theme!

• Give me your best femslash recs! In fic or any other form. Those that you think are truly good, that stayed with you, that you want everyone else to experience.

• Tell me about your favourite femslash ships, the first ones you liked, the F/F books, shows, films etc. you're obsessed with, the ones you write about yourself... Anything femslash!

• I would welcome someone who'd want to help with the DC Femslash Events community, but no pressure :P

Challenge #6
Top 10 Challenge.

For this, I'll post 10(ish) femslash ships I wish to see more of, in general.

• Maxanor, aka Eleanor Guthrie and Max, from Black Sails. Do not get me wrong: I love Maxanne, the clear fandom favourite, but I'm hungry for more Maxanor. Fics exploring their doomed romance, what-if scenarios, things about how they begun... anything!
• Rosewaves, aka Rosita Bustillos and Waverly Earp, from Wynonna Earp. Oh, that ship absolutely ensnared me way back when! I'd love to see more creations focused on it (and only it, because the canon f/f ship was just... fine, to me LOL).
• I made that community for a reason, so, yeah, more DC rareships. I'm particularly charmed by the idea of Cass Cain/Kate Kane, though I know it's difficult for it to match what I want for the ship LOL :P. Same for Stephanie Brown/Selina Kyle, another ship I feel has a lot of potential.
• The Buffyverse fandom definitely has a lot of femslash going around! But I would really appreciate more of it including Kendra Young. Buffy/Kendra or Faith/Kendra, of course, but also Willow/Kendra... and some fucked up Drusilla/Kendra, especially in AUs where she turned her.
• The 100 is another fandom where I'd love to see some rareships that get less attention, and I will continue to prompt them LOL. Octavia/Diyoza, Echo/Clarke, Clarke/Josephine (those are the only two Clarke ships I like LOL), Echo/Gaia, Raven/Indra... 
• Last year I reread Emma, by Jane Austen, and well. I will always root for Emma/Jane Fairfax, in my heart :P
• Legacies also had some great ships, and Hizzie reigns in my heart, but Lizzie/Aurora, Lizzie/Ablah, Lizzie/Jen, Lizzie/Alyssa... all ships I'd love to see more of.
• More femslash in Reign, my old beloved fandom. Especially among/featuring the ladies in waiting: Greer, Lola, Kenna. Either between them, or with other characters.
• Femslash fic in Foundation! I know they're bio mother and daughter, but welp, Gaal and Salvor technically share a kiss on screen and their dynamic is unusual, to say the least. We all know if these were two white men it would've sparked a juggernaut ship lol. And the female characters in this show are all fascinating, I'd love to read more about them, for the fandom to have more fics!
• June and Athena's dynamic was the most fascinating part of R.F. Kuang's Yellowface, and I'd love to see a bit more of it.

I'd like to put my money where my mouth is and post (some more, in a few cases) fics for at least some of these ships on 2026!

Aaaaand that's all. I'm all caught up now :P

stackediaries was definitely fun. I was doing it by myself lol (minus a mutual who did watch a handful of episodes), but I met a lot of other fans that way and we had great combos thanks to it.

I had so much fun that I went and did it with another problematic CW fave this year: stacked100, aka The 100. It's me and a handful of mutuals from back in the days the show aired, because I REALLY didn't vibe with the fandom at large and as consequence, I ended up finding My People, with whom I could enjoy the show with, without getting sucked into all the drama.

And since as I said, I didn't finish any story in 2023... I went to see my tumblr stats so I could link to my most popular posts LOL.

1. The Silly Shitpost (cannibalism edition). Because those are ALWAYS the ones that get the notes lmao. 1.798 as of now.



2 & 3. My Best Friend Wolfgang. Again, silly live watching is what does numbers there lol. 905 and 752 notes, respectively.





That's my fandom wrapped!


PS: I'm also borrowing a meme I've seen from charlottenewtons and senmut : FEMFEBRUARY,

Basically: send me a fandom (you can check my sticky post for inspiration) + a female character + (optional) an specficic topic about her, and I'll write meta about her in February!

Make a rec list! Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I fear you'll get tired of me reccing things (I feel I have done nothing but during this challenge!), but I'll obey the challenge,so, here: a few more! Exclusively comics, this time, and I'll try to pic some mini-runs and self-contained issues that I haven't talked about yet (that I remember lol).

• Oracle: Year One. This criminally short story can be found in "The Batman Chronicles" #5. It should be AT LEAST four issues long, on par with other "Year One" arcs (the Joker is getting THREE FREAKING ISSUES this month smh), but it is pretty damn near perfect as it is. A love letter to Barbara Gordon's character and a look into how she rebuilds herself after TKJ. The perfect un-fridging.
• JLA/Titans #1-3. Mainly a Titans story and a precursor for Titans (1999). Very, very interesting, seemingly like everything Devin Grayson writes, one way or another.
• The Enigma of the Amigara Fault by Junji Ito. Just read it. I won't spoil anything, just embrace the creepiness.
• Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow #1-6. If you know and love Kara Zor-El, read it. If you're only vaguely aware of who her character is, READ IT.
• Dark Knights of Steel #1-12 (+ Tales from the Three Kingdoms). A "medieval" AU of DC. Quite interesting concepts. Might inspire you.
• Batman '89 #1-6. A must if you liked Burton's Batman. It's set after Batman Returns, it's only six issues long, and it has a great (and very different) Barbara, AND a new Robin character that I feel for almost immediately.
• Waller vs. Wildstorm #1-4. A reddit comment described its writers as “a de facto communist and a diversity hire grifter”, so it had to be at least interesting. Also, it has a better Waller than the one in canon rn.
• Batman: Son of the Demon. A classic. Great Talia, great Brutalia, and the original inspiration of Damian.

If you have a short run/one-shot comic you'd like to recommend, feel free to leave a comment!

( Barbara & Cassandra. Batman #567, Detective Comics #734 )
( Dick & Jesse. Titans #11 + #12 + #19 )
( Jason & Kara. Batman/Superman Annual #1 )
( Zatanna. DC Speechless! #4 )
( Damian & Talia. DC's 'Twas the Mite Before Christmas )

ETA: let me know if you use them! They're 200x200px, so adjust them if you need to.

Rec Us Your Newest Thing. Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I feel like all I've been doing during this event is recommending things LOL, but why not continue? I do like talking about my new shiny interests.

• Titans (1999) #1-20. I just finish Devin Grayson's run in this volume and I really, really enjoyed it. It's definitely unpolished in some parts, heavy-handed in others but a.) the plot is solid and traps you, b.) the characters are MIGHTY interesting in this, and c.) the dynamics involved between them are JUICY AS FUCK. And the art is peak comic-book art. I really don't ask for more.
• "Lud-in-the-Mist" by Hope Mirrless. This book has been on my to-read list for a long time now, after a friend's recommendation. I've just started it, I've only read a few episodes, but it's been a while since a book ensnared me so quickly. The jist of the premise is as follows:

Lud-in-the-Mist, the capital city of the small country Dorimare, is a port at the confluence of two rivers, the Dapple and the Dawl. The Dapple has its origin beyond the Debatable Hills to the west of Lud-in-the-Mist, in Fairyland. In the days of Duke Aubrey, some centuries earlier, fairy things had been looked upon with reverence, and fairy fruit was brought down the Dapple and enjoyed by the people of Dorimare. But after Duke Aubrey had been expelled from Dorimare by the burghers, the eating of fairy fruit came to be regarded as a crime, and anything related to Fairyland was unspeakable. Now, when his son Ranulph is believed to have eaten fairy fruit, Nathaniel Chanticleer, the mayor of Lud-in-the-Mist, finds himself looking into old mysteries in order to save his son and the people of his city.

But really, what has captured me is Mirrless' prose. It's vivid, whimsical in the best way, and utterly, utterly beautiful. Prose that is just functional has its place, don't get me wrong, but I do often feel that prose itself -beyond characters, tropes, ships, whatever-, receives very little appreciation. Craft matters!! And I love it when I'm before a book where the writer obviously gave it their all, where they thought long and hard about it, where every word is well-placed and produces a nearly musical effect. I want to write like this, damn xD

To close this, I wanted to link to the ficlets I've received in response to my prompts in the three sentences ficathon, so far

• DC comics, Dick Grayson, family. Dick & the (Teen) Titans, by lumiosecity 
• DC comics, Jason Todd, Robin. By wingedflight 
• DC comics, Kara Zor-el, homesick. By lyntergalactic 
• DC comics, Stephanie Brown, vindication. By be_themoon AND by saiditallbefore 
  
• DC comics, Talia al Ghul, tragedy. By starriewolf 
• DC Comics, Dick/Helena Bertinelli, second one-night stand. By templefugate 
  

And that's all for now! But I encourage you to share your recs here, especially if you know any book with beautiful prose.

I tend to think everyone knows about The Submission Grinder, a site for fiction and poetry writers to keep track of open submissions. But if you didn't know about it, or you're just starting to get your stories out, it might be useful!

And if you're on tumblr, check out Writeblr Graduates, to promote your published (be it traditional, indie, online, etc.) original writing.

Recently I found out about PostyBirb, a site that helps you speed up the process of posting to multiple sites and schedule posts, which can be useful for artists or writers trying to promote their work.

For my fellow DC fans, I wanted to post about the DCU guide, which I often use to track down characters appearances, chronologies, etc. (very useful for a completitionist like me lol). Although I mostly read batclan-related comics, and for that I tend to go for this regularly updated google spreadsheet of characters appearances and mentions.

Finally: if you haven't seen it, the three sentence ficathon is out! Go post your prompts! I posted a few myself (all about the dcu, of course), in case anyone's looking for inspiration 😉

Search in your current space, whether brick-and-mortar or digital. Post a picture (a link to a picture will be fine!) or description of something that is or represents:

Very well!
