Patreon Reward: Bizarro

I got nothin’ to say, I love Bizarro! Though it was a real coin-toss if I was gonna do modern-ish Bizarro or Silver Age “Bizarro #1” necklace Bizarro. Someday.

Patreon Reward: Powerhouse

Erik Larsen creates perfect villains. Ridiculous and deadly. It’s a precarious combo, but he does it expertly. (Remember to order SUPER FREAKS from your friendly neighborhood comic shop [or mail order service])

Patreon Reward: Zombie Easter Bunny

He has risen and wants your chocolate brains. I watched about 6 horror movies featuring resurrected creatures all day Easter Sunday, but did not broach any Easter horror movies. Had I done so, I probably would have watched Rottentail or Easter Casket based on title alone.

Rachel

She is Risen! What better way to celebrate Easter than with a character famous for undead resurrection. Rachel Beck, star of Rachel Rising. A good, but also disappointing series in that it ended with multiple dangling plot threads. I’m two issues into Five Years as of this writing, so maybe those get touched upon? I …

Francine

Francine Peters-Silver, the other star and center of the Mooreniverse. She’s perfect and if I left my girlfriend for a fictional character, it’d probably be Francine. But she’d probably want to join us, or possible fight me over Francine. Because my girlfriend rules. I don’t do cheesecake often! I’m not good at it!

Katchoo

Katina Choovanski, the star and center of the Mooreniverse. Not much I can say about her. She’s awesome, and if my girlfriend was going to leave me for a fictional character, it’d probably be Katchoo.

Sam

Samantha Lockyear from Motor Girl might be the absolute most heartbreaking Terry Moore figure in his oeuvre. I wasn’t quite sure what to make of the book as I started, but by the end… Jesus. Far more affecting and impactful than I would ever have hoped.

Zoe

I have not read Serial yet, but Zoe is a supporting character throughout Rachel Rising. She’s cute! She’s quirky! She’s 10! She a possible descendant of Jack the Ripper and loves to kill things!

Julie

Julie Martin from Echo. This might actually be my favorite Terry Moore work. Sure, SiP is far more in-depth and substantial, but I think Julie’s journey throughout the series is heartbreaking and exhilarating, from the unknown powers to the absolute loss of her agency and sense of self.

Tambi

It’s Terry Moore Week! All characters from the major Terry Mooreniverse comics. When I met my current ladylove, she did not like comics. Which is good, because who needs some Fake Geek Girl bullshit, am I right, my dudes? Comics are for boys! I bet she doesn’t even know Bart Allen’s home address in Alabama! …
