I'm going to ramble here. Please excuse me for a moment.

Right now in the current JSA run, Sand is completely mischaracterized and it is making me mad. I hate to see my favorite character of all fiction have only one line per issue and for such a line to only be in reference to a relationship that supposedly happened in the past. If I see Sand and Jade interact with each other one more time I'm going to lose my mind. Have they ever interacted in comics before? I really don't think so. I don't remember them ever speaking one-on-one in the past. So why were they in a relationship. And why is that the only thing they can think of doing with Sand? JSA All Stars you will always be famous to me for having a half decent Sand storyline (love some King of Tears/Johnny Sorrow Stuff) despite the fact he was missing from comics for a good amount of time beforehand. That is how you understand a character and reintroduce them. Sand and Powergirl's friendship made that comic. Like that's how you use a connection to reintroduce a character. Anyway. Moving on. The current "year one" arc, is giving me hope that they might bring in Citizen Steel who I love, Atom Smasher who I have mixed opinions about, and maybe just maybe they will fix Sand. I only hope that they take some of the writing they're doing for Wesley and apply it to our poor underutilized detective. They tend to forget that these characters can play a very similar role in a team. I would also like to see Sand fight just once. Because he has not bought a single battle or at least not been emphasized in any battles for the run. One more thing, I feel passionately that the best iteration of Sand since JSA All Stars in 2010 has been his appearance in Bug! Adventures of Forager.

Wow! I really kept going. I don't expect anybody to read all of this. I just had to get it off my chest.

Hi, new Mr. Terrific fans! Do you want to get to know him after watching the movie? Here’s a short and easy reading list for you!

Important details to note:

His name is Michael Holt

He’s a legacy character. There was a Mr. Terrific before Michael named Terry Sloane who has been dead for decades. He’s the reason why “Fair play” is written on Michael’s jacket sleeves.

His origin includes attempted suicide.

His mask has a purpose! It makes him a walking blind spot to cameras.

The New 52 Mr. Terrific is a completely different character.

Reading list:

The Spectre (1992) #54 (Michael’s origin)

JSA (1999) (He Joins the team in #11 and becomes chairman in #27)

Justice Society of America (2006)

Checkmate (2006)

The Terrifics (2018)

Mr. Terrific: Year One (2025) (A modern retelling of his origin. Currently two out of four issues are out. The third releases on Wednesday while the fourth comes out a week after that.)

If you have any questions, ask me at @fall-of-fall ! Happy reading!

New JSA Spoilers!!

For my birthday I got the new JSA comic! (Yay) Why is Sand's "first" introduction (as in recently) immediately him having relationship problems 💔 with JADE?? Let me have some sort of fun awesome plot line focusing on him like the good ol days and avoid awkward romance plot lines please, I'm begging 🙏😍

Aside from that, I might be missing some context here and there so I'm going to double check and make sure I'm caught up. Hoping for some good Sand material in the future because I have been waiting soooo long for his grand return!

To conclude, happy birthday to me, the best birthday gift ever is his return and I will be staring at that comic a lot.
