A donation for the Library of M came in the other day. What's the Library of M? It's why I started on this journey years ago. When my sister passed away from cancer, her collection was given to me. And with that, I became its steward. Occasionally, people send me some comics to add to the collection. If you're curious about what is in the collection, The link is below or in my bio.

Have any of you read The Approach of Void Rivals? Should I read it?
