It's the Friday #80s Flashback, and we're remembering RAISING HELL, the third studio album from hip-hop icons, Run-D.M.C. This multi-Platinum record – featuring the rap/rock hit "Walk This Way" – turned 40 years old this week. #music

The Roebling-style footbridge over Perkiomen Creek’s East Branch in Lake Lenape Park. Designed and built through the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the late 1930s. I took this photo during a walk in the park on May 6, 2026.
This week on the Friday #80s Flashback: Billy Ocean's sixth studio album, LOVE ZONE, turns 40! This album featured the hit songs "When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going", "There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry)", and the title track. #music

Comic book panel from Daredevil Vol. 3 #32. Matt Murdock is musing: "Great. Here it is, Racism Savings Time, and I forgot to set my clock back fifty years. This isn't a Supreme Court, it's a time machine."*
I'm using this panel as commentary on the Supreme Court's VRA ruling made on April 29, 2026.
[*Original panel has Matt thinking "This isn't a cab, it's a time machine." Interesting that, even in that story arc, Murdock/Daredevil is fighting a WS cult.]
So, an aging Wonder Warrior (the Wonder Woman variant of Earth 2026) and a red shirt from the Mirror Universe ventured out to three local comic shops for Free Comic Book Day 2026!
