I try not to complain or care about these type of things, usually with success, so I'm a little surprised at how annoyed I was by the end of Timeless. Oh well.

Happy New Year New Chip!

I'm genuinely surprised it took this long. Like, didn't they buy the rights back in 2009?

Seriously. I think that's what led to my false sense of security.

I look at it the way I look at all the Watchmen stuff: those aren't the characters. Makes life easy!

That's a good way to look at it. I just try to remind myself that it doesn't change the original work. You have to find some way of dealing with it, because it's damn well going to happen whether you like it or not.

someone once told me they read every Marvel issue/run as if it's its own continuity and I love that so much

I like that. I’m going to pretend I thought of it myself.

Wow! Happy New Year!!! I hope you had a great Boxing Day or week or whatever. I shockingly share most of your resolutions except instead of writing a crappy screenplay I'm hoping to receive more crappy screenplays to audition for. Thankfully I have one more month of your Substack because I shockingly still had 7 bucks on my card so if this is how my year starts it can only go up from here!!!

In all seriousness Merry New Year to Chip and anyone who reads this!!!
