Enjoying War Of The Realms:
When Odin of Midgard, Thor’s father, is, supposedly, murdered by Malekith’s forces, the Ten Realms are drawn into a war which will determine the fate of all existence.
After reading issue #1, this is my non-spoilery synopsis of Marvel’s latest mega event, War Of The Realms. Like all mega events, since the original Secret Wars, the story consists of a main title, several tie-in titles, and relevant issues of ongoing titles.

Make no mistake, I DO NOT plan to collect every single tie-in. Not only would it eat up way too much of my bank account, I learned long ago (in 1991 with DC’s Armageddon 2001 and War Of The Gods) that many tie-in issues don't add much to the over all story.
As for me, I’m going to collect the main title, War Of The Realms: Punisher, War Of The Realms: Uncanny X-Men, War Of The Realms: Scrolls (because Captain America is in it), and the tie-in issues of the titles I normally collect. I recommend you do the same; find a few tie-in titles featuring heroes you really like, and don't knock yourself out trying to collect every single skirmish.
Editor's Note:
To make these blogs easier to post on social media, I'm moving the Spotlight section back to the end of each entry.
Spotlight:
Happy!, arguably one of most bizarre shows on TV, has returned to SyFy for a second season. The show, based on the graphic novel of the same name, tells the story of, alcoholic ex-detective, Nick Sax being guided by his daughter's imaginary blue unicorn.
The first season was about rescuing his daughter from a sadistic Santa. This season revolves around a sado-masochistic Easter Bunny and a plot to control the Easter holiday by scamming the Pope. Happy! is a show jam packed with graphic violence, adult language, and sexually suggestive content. While the show is crude, violent, and COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN, adults will find a hilarious exciting series.
Happy! airs Wednesday nights at 10pm on SyFy.
