Front cover (by Geof Darrow) and some interior illustrations from Underground: It's 2021 and the Dream is Dead, the core rulebook for Ray Winninger's satirical gritty superhero role-playing game Underground.
It's heavily inspired by cyberpunk fiction, late 80's-early 90's deconstructions of superheroes, and early 90's political unrest.

R.L. Stine's The Haunted Mask - the 1993 eleventh children's horror novel in the original Goosebumps series - is being turned into a graphic novel.
The 160-page graphic novel will be published on September 3 via Scholastic's Graphix. The adaptation is illustrated by Maddi Gonzalez, with colors by Corey Barba and lettering by Jesse Post.
How ugly is Carly Beth’s Halloween mask? It’s so ugly that it almost scared her little brother to death. So terrifying that even her friends are totally freaked out by it. It’s the best Halloween mask ever. With yellow-green skin and long animal fangs, the mask terrifies the entire neighborhood. Before long, it has a surprising effect on Carly Beth, too. She tries to take it off... but it won’t budge! Halloween is almost over, but fright night is just beginning.
Pre-order The Haunted Mask.

Batman Animated Rebirth idea
I have this Idea related to Batman, You might remember the old animated series of Batman in the 1992-1999, I thought of an rebirth of it. Plus it was PG-13
1 (Idea of the story) : The Series took place about when Bruce Wayne was Batman for 5 years. One the first year, he defeated Dr Death and his whole empire and Dismantled the Crime Families. However, over 5 years,he faced countless costume, deadly and mutant rouges. He allied so many Allie’s like Dick Grayson as Robin, Barbra Gordon as Batgirl, Alfred, Lucius Fox and the GCPD. Many other even too place before that series like “Long Halloween, Arkham Origins, War of Jokes and Riddles, Bad Cop, Batman 66 events and a movie, Batgirl Begins from Arkham Knight and Arkham Asylum Living Hell.”.
2 (Changes and a few events): This will have a few flashbacks and it will first part 1 episode were Bruce becomes Batman and Part 2 fights Dr Death and fast forward to The Joker. Bruce Wayne lives at the Wayne Enterprises Penthouse scene he was 6, when Thomas decided to became Mayor and would have the Wayne Terminus as the Batcave. I fell like the whole leather suit of the costumes is old so I thought it’s time to amour it up. The GCPD will be have a big building like the Arkham Knight version. The same goes to Arkham Asylum as a Mercy Island as big mansion part giant building. In Season 1 Harleen Quinzel isn’t Harley Quinn yet, but we’ll get to it much later and soon after, they leave Gotham to go on a cross country crime spree, putting Bonnie and Clyde to shame, come back a few episodes later. A few secondary villains that might come once or twice, For example, Batman did joined the Justice League.
3 (Cast):
Bruce Wayne/Batman: Jensen Ackles
Alfred Pennyworth: Martin Jarvis
Selina Kyle/Catwoman and Pamale Isley/Poison Ivy: Grey Griffin
Commisoner Gordon: Jeffrey Wright

Imagine Sonny and Rafael had been casually hooking up and after a big argument about Rafael's commitment issues they. One night while heartbroken and kinda drunk Rafael and Rita go to a tattoo shop and he gets a sun(for Sonny) tattooed on his ring finger. He does a horrible job at hiding it and Sonny spots it within like 2 seconds....fluff/smut proceed in Rafael's office.
Sorry, it took forever for me to answer, but thank you for the ask, anon, it’s very appreciated and here you go!
“Look, Rafael, I feel like this was not the right decision at all if you’re so caught up on him.”
“He was good in bed, that’s it. He was a fucking treasure.” Rafael lifts his Scotch, how many glasses he had drunken this evening he doesn’t know, and empties this one in one go. The liquor burns, but it does nothing to sooth the ache in his chest.
“Gosh, if you start again on how beautiful his dick is I’m gonna choke on that Mojito.” Rita rolls her eyes. While handling her friend’s problems with alcohol is nothing new to her, handling her friend’s broken heart appears is definetely a first.
“His eyes, I said his eyes are beautiful.”
“Yeah, so blue, how could I forget?”
“And his face. The dimples on his cheeks when he smiled.”
“Rafa, you gotta be kidding me.” Rita is substantially drunk herself, but still she had never listened to Rafael Barba talking so... cheesy and moreso desperately.
“And he had freckles on his shoulder. Oh god.” Rafael’s face drops into his palm during the last words. What had he done? “What have I done?”
“Look, Rafa, my dear, you did what you had to do. You didn’t want what he wanted, it’s cruel but that simple. And seriosly, what were you supposed to do? Go to Sunday Mass on Staten Island?”
Rafael groans and looks at Rita with weary eyes. The mist of the booze had already settled heavily over his mind. “He kept asking if I wanted to have breakfast. What do I know? I haven’t had breakfast in years!”
“Okay, that’s enough. Just fuck with someone else.” Rita turns around and gestures the bartender for another round. The bartender is cute, too young for her and with strong arms. Just her type. Too bad Rafael had chosen the place so the chances that this guy is anywhere near straight are slim.
“I wanna fuck him again,” Rafael whines.
“That whitebread over there even looks a little like him. Or look at that black guy over there, these muscles! Yummy!” Rita points at guys in the bar, but Rafael doesn’t look. He’s actually very close to drunk-call him instead.
“Maybe he’s in for bonus night?” Rafael lifts his phone to Rita who shakes her head.
“Okay, new idea. Do you remember that thing I wanted to do twenty years ago after Corey Holland, that asshole, ditched me for Selvina Cooker?”
“You slept with her.”
“Yeah,” Rita smirks. “That was sweet revenge. But before that, I was about to get a tattoo about endorsing my... for seizing the day or something. Let’s do that.”
She doesn’t really want Rafael to get a tattoo, she just wants to do something, anything, that makes him stop drowning in his heartache. And this is how they endup in that little tattoo parlor in Upper Manhattan without wondering why it is opened that late. Her head spins significantly by then and she doesn’t remember much from that point on. Except that the owner’s name is Hoon and he is freshly divorced. Rita decides that he is just the right treat while Rafael gets his tattoo.
*
How Rafael manages to not see him for three weeks after his drunken mistake, he doesn’t know. He had been able to talk down the bandage on his ring finger with the excuse that he got burned while preparing a frita burger for his mother. Rafael doesn’t believe that anyone believes him, does he cook really? And if he does would it be a Cuban burger? Nevertheless, nobody had secondguessed him so far. The bandage is off now for a few days and that thick silver band he is wearing to hide his disaster is an outright hideous fashion choice.
Sonny notes that within the first two seconds after he enters Rafael’s office.
“Why are you wearing that ring?”
“Why not?”
“Because it’s... very gay, and not in the good way.”
“What?”
“Seriously, Rafi, you’re freaking me out. What is going on?”
“Maybe it’s just a ring someone has given to me.”
“No, it’s not.”
Rafael stares at Sonny for a long moment. It hadn’t slipped his attention that Sonny still used that endearment he wasn’t supposed to use in the first place and he can’t believe how well this man knows him. And why had Rita been compelled to be busy riding that tattoo artist for crying out loud?
It’s only two or three months ago that Sonny had stood at the exact same spot in Rafael’s office. I cannot do this anymore, I feel too much for you to do this. Rafael doesn’t remember what he had answered. Maybe he had repeated the litany of agreements (how Rafael used to call them) or rules (how Sonny used to call them) that had held together their thing. I care for you very, very much. So much. But this is killing me. This is how Sonny had done what Rafael had planned to do all along, end things before it’s getting too hard. Sonny’s question before he left You really don’t have any feelings for me? had remained unanswered.
“Whatever it is, it’s none of your business. By your own wish.”
“Is that a tattoo underneath?”
Rafael in his nervousness had fidgeted with the ring on his finger. Of course, it doesn’t even cover the whole desaster and these piercingly blue eyes had detected what Rafael is trying to hide immediately.
“Rafi, stop freaking me out! Why do you have a tattoo?”
Rafael cannot answer. It feels like something ties around his throat, making it impossible for him to speak.
“It looks like a sword... or a beam maybe. Is that a sun?”
“Why are you so good at this?”
“Because I am a detective!”
“You have to stop talking about this!”
“I won’t!”
“You have to!”
“Then show it to me!”
“NO!”
“Then I won’t shut up!”
He doesn’t quite know how that is possible, but Sonny can be even more stubborn than Rafael. And to be honest, the fact that Sonny finally rounds that desk again to approach Rafael, that he takes Rafael’s hand in his, that he stands too close so that Rafael can smell his scent makes Rafael stand so still as if he wanted to make the world stop turning.
“Why do you have a sun tattooed on your ring finger?”
Sonny had taken off the ring and Rafael just stares into his bright blue eyes. He had missed him so much.
“Rafi?”
Sonny’s voice is only a whisper. Like all these mornings when he had woken up next to him.
Rafael clears his throat. “It stands for Sonny.”
Rafael doesn’t even have the time to feel ashamed for how vulnerable he is making himself because Sonny catches him into a searing kiss.
Sonny’s hands cup Rafael’s face. Their lips are firmly pressed together and Sonny’s tongue strikes into Rafael’s mouth, strong and insistently.
And when their lips part, Rafael is fine. Because he is pressed against Sonny’s warm body.
“Can we stop being stupid now?”
“I was not stupid, it is just how I feel.” Rafael doesn’t open his eyes, he just relishes Sonny’s presence.
“Can you committ to this anyway?”
“I don’t know... how.”
“Just try, Rafi, just try. This is all I ask.”
Rafael goes on tiptoe and kisses him. Maybe he had been stupid. And this was a bad idea all along.
“For you, yes!”

So is Nygmobblepot Fox and DC’s answer to Barisi?
Because there are similarities betwixt the two.
Barisi’s nickname is lawyer boyfriends; Nygmobblepot’s is Murder Husbands.
I bumped into a Nygmobblepot Christmas-themed smutfic titled Since we’ve no place to go, which is the same title as a Barisi smutfic that doesn’t really have that much smut but still, where the SVU gang’s huddled into a ski resort for a three day weekend.
There’s an 8 year, five month, one week and three day age difference between Robin Lord Taylor and Corey Michael Smith as opposed to the nine year, four month and five day age difference between Raul Esparza and Peter Scanavino, but both Smith and Scanavino are taller than their respective pairingmates.
Speaking of height, Smith and Scanavino are both 6′0″.
Ironically enough, Raul, Robin and now Cory are both LGBTQA+.
Also speaking of SVU, Robin guest-starred on an episode when Raul began playing Barba. Just a little funfact I thought I’d bring up.
Another thing: Gotham’s shot in Manhattan, SVU’s set in Manhattan.
Sonny and Raf alternate between who wears suspenders, Edward wears suspenders.
Raf and Ed have daddy issues.

O que há de errado?
O Titanic me perguntou esta manhã, quando ele me encontrou deitada no fundo do oceano com todas as minhas malas abertas.
Ah, não sei, gemi, estava olhando no National Geographic e vi algumas fotos suas e pensei em entrar e conversar. você estava ótimo, aliás, nas fotos.
Eu? Não. Titanic sorriu. No mínimo, parece que me tornei um Picasso. e eu tenho uma barba.
Era verdade; ele parecia mais uma colagem de um navio. Estranhamente bidimensional, em uma cratera de sua própria fabricação: portas francesas, caldeiras, grades em todas as direções. E ele tinha um pedaço de gelo com ferrugem de barba pendurado em fios vermelhos de seus motores de ferro. sentando em minha própria cratera, eu meio que corei.
Para ser honesta, eu disse ao Titanic, meu amor está saindo da cidade em breve e temo que isso vá me destruir, então eu mergulhei aqui.
Bem, entre, disse o Titanic, mas não tenho certeza se encontrei o que você está procurando.
Então subi no meio, por uma janela entre duas estalactites enferrujadas, e comecei a andar em seu grande passeio. (o que teria sido incrível, aliás - andar pelos fantasmas de todos aqueles lenços agitando - exceto que eu estava naquele estado de sentir pena de você mesmo onde o próprio corredor é o corredor de sua própria mente miserável, cada fantasma meu próprio fantasma, então não dei uma boa olhada em volta.)
Quando cheguei aos banhos turcos, sentei-me na beira de uma banheira de barnacled e observei caranguejos estranhos arranharem meus pés.
Eu esperava que você me ensinasse a afundar, eu disse. Você, que passou um século debaixo d'água com 1.500 esqueletos no peito.
Não sei, disse o Titanic, estou meio destruído.
Exatamente! Eu disse: Eu também! Estou aqui para aprender a destroçar. Estou aqui para ser seu aprendiz! Grande senhor barbado, arca gigantesca, seu hotel flutuante. Com salões de baile suficientes em você para dançar com todos que eu já amei.
Meu coração tem um iceberg com o nome dele, eu disse ao Titanic, então preciso de alguns conselhos.
Diga-me, você viu o iceberg chegando?
Sim, disse Titanic.
E você navegou direto para ele?
Foi amor, disse Titanic.
E a banda continuou tocando? E o capitão ficou ao volante? Qual foi a sensação de engolir água do mar? Diga-me, Titanic, como você se sentiu?
Pareceu um buraco na minha lateral e então parecia que meu rosto estava despencando pela primeira vez no oceano gelado.
Ela é uma pessoa direta, o Titanic.
Tudo bem, eu disse. Agora vamos falar sobre ferrugem. Quando meu amor for embora, estou planejando chorar estalactites do meu queixo. Vou vestir minha tristeza em fios longos. Como você, eu serei suportado por isso. Então fiz um barulho terrível. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrkkkkkkkkkkk! Tenho praticado o som de metal violento, disse a ele, para quando meu amor for embora.
Mas você não é feito de metal. Titanic disse para mim.
Eu sou uma escritora, disse eu, posso ser feita de qualquer coisa.
Pois bem, seja uma escritora então . Ele disse.
Seja uma escritora? Fiz uma pausa, anêmonas entre meus dedos.
OK. Quando meu amor for embora, vou começar com SOS. Escreverei em código Morse enquanto o mundo todo fica vertical. Vou escrever mergulhos de nariz enquanto meu torso se divide em dois. E no dia seguinte escreverei as manchetes atordoadas, e no dia seguinte escreverei os obituários, e no dia seguinte escreverei acusações furiosas, e no dia seguinte escreverei processos judiciais, e no dia seguinte escreverei confissões das minhas transgressões, e no dia seguinte vou escrever perdões, mas não vou realmente dizer isso, e no dia seguinte vou escrever sonetos, mas eles não vão se encaixar no esquema, e no dia seguinte vou escrever súplicas , por favor, volte por favor. No dia seguinte, escreverei epitáfios, mapas de navegação, alertando para as gerações futuras sobre a arrogância do amor humano. Vou escrever cotas, perguntas e questionários, vou escrever bobagens, vou escrever bobagens, vou escrever bobagens até o fim e nenhuma equipe de mergulho me encontrará, nenhum braço de robô me recuperará em pedaços. nunca serei remontado e jogada no ar. Não, ficarei inteira, três quilômetros abaixo, com minhas malas abertas, e em 100 anos ainda estarei escrevendo sobre esse sentimento, embora meu coração seja um Picasso, embora meu coração esteja barbado no fundo do mar.
O Titanic me deixou chorar um pouco, meus soluços ecoando em seus mosaicos mofados.
Então ele disse: Garota, você é muito jovem para uma barba como essa. Você nunca vai conseguir se enferrujar agora.
Funguei um pouco e risquei meu nome na gosma verde da banheira.
O problema com vocês, humanos, é que estão muito preocupados em se manter boiando.
Vá em frente, seja aberto pelo amor.
Engula aquela água salgada, afunde sob as ondas.
Você não é um barco, pode afundar e subir de novo, com aqueles seus grandes e velhos pulmões, aquelas pernas duras e fortes.
E seu coração, ele disse, aquela arca gigantesca, aquele hotel flutuante.
Chame-o de inafundável, embora seja afundável.
Embarque, embarque.
Há salões de baile suficientes em você para dançar com todos que você vai amar.
Isso é o que o Titanic me disse esta manhã, eu, deitado ao lado dela no fundo do oceano. Existem salões de baile suficientes em você

#Repost @beardedvillains_brasil • • • • • • ⚔O QUE É BEARDED VILLAINS?⚔ . Leia isso!! . . “ESPERANÇA, IRMANDADE, BONS MOMENTOS, POSITIVIDADE, FAMILIA, AMIZADE, RESPEITO” . Esses homens barbados nem se conheciam há pouco tempo atrás... Você acredita nisso? Mas é verdade. Esses homens acreditaram na louca idéia que tive em criar uma comunidade e reunir sob um mesmo nome irmãos que compartilham os mesmo valores fundamentais na vida... e esse nome é BEARDED VILLAINS. A página da BV no IG sempre publicou não apenas nossos irmãos mas outros homens barbados com barbas admiráveis como "modelos" e essa é a beleza disso... A diversidade dos nossos posts para divulgar TODOS os homens barbados. Eu vou simplificar... Se você está tentando aderir ao nosso movimento por posts ou "Insta-fama"... Obrigado mas NÃO OBRIGADO. Como um de nossos irmãos (Corey) recentemente postou #preservemairmandade Recrutadores! Senhoras e senhores Nós evoluímos... Para uma das maiores e mais fortes comunidades mundiais em midias sociais e conquistamos isso JUNTOS, não apenas eu.. NÓS. Não é por merchandise mesmo porque nunca pedi a ninguém nenhuma quantia em dinheiro ou compra de produtos para ingressarem... Nós somos mais que isso, é por nossa comunidade e termos orgulho de quem somos e o que fazemos como um ORGULHOSO BEARDED VILLAIN! Se é um encontro entre irmãos para uma cerveja, um evento de caridade organizado ou um churrasco no parque... Isso é o que nossa comunidade é e eu tenho orgulho disso. Nós temos em nossa frente a oportunidade de fazer a diferença, todos sob UMA IRMANDADE, UM NAVIO. As recompensas estão ao nosso redor... Quando alguém nos diz OBRIGADO POR SUA AJUDA. Essa é a verdadeira recompensa... Fodam-se posts ou camisas ou haters.. quando você consegue ajudar alguém necessitado junto com seus irmãos é uma experiencia que você nunca esquecerá. . Eu amo vocês meus irmãos e obrigado por tornarem essa irmandade incrivelmente foda. - Von Knox (Texto traduzido da BV Original) (em Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_5pZu4H3ON/?igshid=2gwtvzycsqzc
