Ms. Marvel #1 – Super Famous

I recently started collecting the Kamala Khan version of Ms. Marvel comics.  I never had an interest in the original Ms. Marvel, but there was something about Kamala Khan that intrigued me.  I’d never heard of a female, muslim, teenage, superhero before – and I wanted to see what her adventures would be like.

Ms. Marvel #1 – Super Famous  is the first of a three-part story.  It was published in January of 2016.  There are two different covers for this particular issue, but the story inside is identical.

The Screwtape Letters – by C.S. Lewis

Years ago, a friend suggested that I read The Screwtape Letters. The only thing I knew about C.S. Lewis at the time was that he was the author of The Chronicles of Narnia series. I had a vague memory of the main points from the first book in that series, which I read when I was in elementary school. I remembered that it was a fantasy/adventure kind of story for kids.

It wasn’t until after I’d finished reading The Screwtape Letters that I did some research and learned that one of the most well known books by C.S. Lewis is called Mere Christianity and that the author converted to Christianity in 1931. Perhaps my friend, who is a pastor, had an ulterior motive when he suggested that I read The Screwtape Letters.

Candy Crush Saga: Gingerbread Glade

Episode 11 of Candy Crush Saga is called Gingerbread Glade.  It reminds me a little of the Hansel and Gretel fairy tale because the Episode features a gingerbread house and a witch.

The visuals are the only similarity between the fairy tale and the Candy Crush Saga Episode called Gingerbread Glade.  This is the first Episode in a while to start out with a character that needs some help – but isn’t so distraught that they are crying.  Life seems to be improving in Candy Crush Saga land.

Candy Crush Saga: Wafer Wharf

Episode 10 of Candy Crush Saga is called Wafer Wharf.  It starts with an Octopus who is crying because his submarine has been damaged by the Bubblegum Troll.  The submarine has a big hole in it (that looks like a bite mark).

The little girl in Candy Crush Saga tries to help the Octopus.  Her solution involves bubble gum.  I find it is best not to think too hard about why the Octopus needs a submarine or why bubble gum can fix it.
