It's the Justice League International! Guy, Booster, Fire and Ice, Beetle (Jaime instead of Ted, but still the Blue Beetle), J'onn, Batman and ... Aquaman? Do the creators just want any excuse to use Aquaman (which is fair enough), or did they get JLI confused with the Detroit League?

Far more importantly, J'onn is shown with a box of cookies. Chocolate chip cookies. That's not the Martian I know. Are sandwich biscuits hard to animate?

I got the Unseen Academicals Football Cards and album for Christmas, and it turns out they have a strange effect on me.

When I was a kid, I used to get sweetie-cigarettes from the grocer's van. (Just reading that sentence, it sounds like I grew up in the '30s rather than the '80s. But no, we did still have sweetie-cigarettes and grocer's vans.) Although I was never interested enough in sport to actually collect them, I was aware that there were football cards in the packets. I think I used to swap them for Doctor Who stickers at school.

That was about twenty-five years ago. But everytime I look at the Artificer's authentic-looking cards, my brain thinks "Sugar!", because it's expecting me to eat an entire packet of sweetie-cigarettes.
