    21 – Planeteer Alert!

    With the Captain Planet book coming out from David Pepose and Emmanuel Casallos from Dynamite Comics, some have really fallen hard for the book. I can imagine it brought back memories to a lot of us, a time when we sat on the floor watching Saturday Morning Cartoons. Planeteer Alert was a segment that gave you tips on how to be good to the environment and to raise overall awareness. Here’s one below about not poaching bears.

    I do not know how many kids found themselves in a bear poaching sitaution, but you do you have to go after them early.

    Thankfully the rules are more strict where we are located in comparison to other places in the world, the United States included. But if Curt wants to do a Planeteer Alert, I am all for it. Because a lot of what we sell is second-hand so surely our individual footprint is lower than other activities.

    20 – Mainstream Media

    The resolution to our three-parter, diving deep into 2000ad and Judge Dredd. I think if you are reading 2000ad regularly you might feel a bit worried, perhaps detect that bit of anxiety because what you are reading could be happening in real time. I know it does make me anxious.

    I do ask Curt, who is our residential American, what he thinks about the current events. And his reply was, in typical Curt fashion,

    “I survived Germany during the Bush years, I can survive this.”

    But I do not think I was talking about him. Oh well.

    In all seriousness, I do discuss the world with my friends and customers. In many cases I do hear that they have decided to shut off the news entirely because it is just so negative. Is this wise or is this act simply shutting ourselves off from the world? I do not know. But I do wonder…do we even have a choice?
