SGA: Long Ago (and Far Away) by Kristen999
Jul. 24th, 2025 05:03 pmmific posting in fancakeFandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Genfic. John Sheppard, Rodney McKay, Evan Lorne, Ronon Dex, Carson Beckett, Teyla Emmagan, Original characters
Rating: Teen
Length: 79,623
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply. Grim at times, as it depicts an aspect of WWII.
Creator Links: kristen999 on AO3, everybetty on LJ
Themes: Working together, Action/adventure, Teamwork, Friendship, Genfic, AU: historical, Novel-length
Summary: WWII-based AU. The Team as we know it has been transplanted to the South Pacific.
Reccer's Notes:
This tour de force is a novel-length story bykristen999, assisted by everybetty, an historical AU set in Papua-New Guinea, in WWII. It's pretty male-centric because of that, but does include Teyla as a local liaison with intel about the enemy. It's got lots of plot, great action and adventure, and an excellent sense of place - you can almost feel the tropical heat making you sweat and hear the mosquitoes whine. The story is illustrated throughout with lots of period photos from the time. It's told from all of the team's POVs, particularly John's (he's a pilot, of course, with Rodney and Ronon on his flight crew). Naturally, John gets thoroughly whumped, in the best genfic tradition. There's tons of atmosphere, friendship and teamwork, and it's a really great read.

The Flash #21 - "Bad Moon Rising, Part Two"
Jul. 23rd, 2025 07:20 pmlaughing_tree posting in scans_daily
The day my little boy came home from nursery -- and I've never shown him any my comics, he was three at this point -- and he goes, "Daddy, I'm a superhero," and he runs around the house punching stuff and breaking things. And I'm like, oh shit, I have appeared to have built a career around the fact that moral righteousness is who can hit the hardest, who can break things the most. And that really, really staggered me, and I had to really think about it. -- Si Spurrier

Absolute Martian Manhunter #4
Jul. 23rd, 2025 06:43 pmlaughing_tree posting in scans_daily
Because, while I do think we're pretty radical, and it's pretty different, at the same time, if I'm drawing from anything, I'm drawing from those early Detective Comics stories, and going back to that. And that was a version of the Martian Manhunter who was kind of mysterious and almost mystical in his abilities, in the sense that he could seem to really do anything, whatever the story called for, and his perspective on humanity was really important. -- Deniz Camp

Star-Lord (Marvel Preview 4)
Jul. 23rd, 2025 10:27 amknight_moves posting in scans_dailyI had a yen to go through Starlord's backstory and apparently it's even more of a mish-mash than most comic book characters, with retcons having consigned his original origin story to an alternate reality. Still, I find Marvel Preview 4 an interesting taste of seventies sci-fi, with its zeerust futurism, hints of astrology, In Search Of The Unknown UFOism and NASA worship coupled with the usual capes and lasers.
(Yes, there are capes. It's the future, jabroni.)
This is SF coming out of the same primordial soup as Star Wars (which would premiere two years later) and it's just fascinating to me how it's simultaneously so modern and yet so of-another-time.
