Look, they didn’t want to dive into Percy Jackson & the Olympians.If you’re reading this because you think you might want to listen, my advice is: close this app right now. Believe whatever lie your mom or dad told you about Wizard and the Bruiser, and try to lead a normal life.Being a Wizard and a Bruiser is dangerous. It’s scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways. If you’re a normal kid, reading this because you think it’s fiction, great. Read on. I envy you for being able to believe that none of this ever happened. But if you recognize yourself in these wave forms– if you feel something stirring inside – stop listening immediately. You might be one of us. And once you know that, it’s only a matter of time before they sense it too, and they’ll come for you.Don’t say I didn’t warn you.This is Wizard and the Bruiser cover Percy Jackson & the Olympians. Want even more WizBru?

You mentioned not knowing why the rangers would never summon their zords when they were outnumbered by a group of putties. One of the core rules set by Zordon of being a Power Ranger was that they were to "Never escalate a battle unless forced to". That's why they only ever summoned their zords AFTER the main enemy grew to a gigantic size!

These movies may have been made by boomers, but were made FOR genx. That's why they feel so bummer. Genx was raised in a soup of existential oblivionism. Most of genx was taught from early on that they'd be glowing ash by the time they hit 35. Not just nihilism, but annihilism. It's also why wasteland/Fallout was so popular. Hell, swords and sandals were probably so popular not because it looked like ancient fantasy to genx, but because it looked like the future to them.

It's creepy how similar this dude's early art career is to mine. My first book was a pop-up as well, and I also had a best friend who I made comic books with. Maybe I should have kept at it? Shit.

Thank you WizBrew for ruining my search history looking up what a "Romeo and Juliet law" is. My NSA agent is so disappointed in me.

Acrophobia was the shiiiit! There was also a pictionary style one my mom was an admin on. And another (my personal favorite) where you captioned random photos.

Can't believe Holden said "the Yin to my Yang, Jake Young" and not "...the Young to my Yang"
