Speaking of Apollo/Midnighter fans... can someone help me with the top three Midnighter TPBs I should find (his really core story arcs). It's for some filming next year, and I want to be decently versed on the character.Originally Posted by numberthirty

Honestly, it's hard to go wrong with most of the older stuff. Originally Posted by Kieran_Frost

And whatever you do, avoid the Midnighter/Grifter tale by homophobic rightwing night job Chuck Dixon.

Yeah, the Midnighter/Grifter mini is garbage.
Garth Ennis’ run is worth a read but it’s clear he had no interest in writing a gay character. Brian K. Vaughan’s Midnighter #7 is essential. Midnighter #8 is a cute one-shot where M rescues a little girl’s cat.

Thank-you (all of you) for the replies. I'll hunt these out when I'm next in London's Forbidden Planet. Originally Posted by numberthirty

"Rightwing night job?" Is that what they call the overnight security guard at FOX News headquarters? Originally Posted by PaulBullion

Incredible result. I wish it had been more radical but it’s a start. Now to plan for 2020

It boogles my mind/saddens me to recognize the differences between some parts of America. While Colorado made the awesome progressive decision above, here in the South it's same old same old. My home state of Alabama narrowly escaped having a pedophile as it's Senator... and more recently the very personable, and very very Cute Beto O'Rourke lost to 80s villain Ted Cruz, and crooked Brian Kemp (who pointed a shot gun in one of his ads) won over Stacey "openly secret lesbian" Abrams Originally Posted by Vegan Daddy

We love a good short film about an adorable elderly gay couple.

I am curious as to what people feel about Youtuber Blair White? She is a conservative trans woman who's pretty popular on social media. Not very long ago she did a video about how a lot of of supposedly right wing YouTubers are actually fake and don't really believe what they say. And well...she's obviously someone who's cashing in this thing as well, but like I said, I'm curious as to what other folks thought
Blair talking about the phonies ( I think she's probably talking about Steven Crowder)...
