Women Wednesday: Sorcerer Supreme #1

Marvel released Sorcerer Supreme #1 last week featuring Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch. She does call herself Sorceress Supreme but somebody else also call themself the same at the end of this issue. I do enjoy her new costume. Here's the official summary:

"SCARLET WITCH: SORCERESS SUPREME! After rescuing the Cloak of Levitation and the Eye of Agamotto from the ashes of Doom’s fall, the SCARLET WITCH has chosen to claim a new title: SORCERER SUPREME OF EARTH! Wanda is willing to defy tradition, break every rule and chart a bold new path-one that the Vishanti aren’t exactly happy about. Will this rogue Sorcerer Supreme bring magic in the Marvel Universe to new heights, or leave it in ruin? An all-new series helmed by Steve Orlando with mystifying art from Bernard Chang!"

Countdown to Halloween 2025 Day 31 Bonus: Trick or Treaters

We had eighteen trick or treaters this evening, which tied us with last year. We had one big bag of assorted candy but it didn't look like it would be enought so we bought two more smaller bags. I was handing out dandy by the hanfuls but we still ended up with a bunch left over. Only one little girl stood out with a great costume. She was dressed as Jenna Ortega's Wednesday and the makeup was spot on.

Countdown to Halloween 2023 Day 12: Young Sheldon Pick of the Patch Sweepstakes

I have been watching Young Sheldon at 5:30 pm Central Monday through Friday for the past year. I have seen most episodes about four or five times by now. I have also been entering the Pick of the Patrch Sweepstakes by entering the Word of the Day. The sweepstakes is sponsored by Valpak. I doubt that I will win the grand prize of $10,000 but I would settle for the Bazinga glow bracelet since I love items that glow in the dark.
