Boys, Boys, Boys – The Daily LITG, 6th June 2021

Welcome to the Daily LITG. The world can seem like a terrible and strange place sometimes, but there are highlights. At Bleeding Cool, you can still read all about comics, merch, TV shows, games, movies, and more. But mostly Prodigal Son and previous LITGs that just mentioned Prodigal Son. Someone should really turn it into a comic book. And the Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long-running run around the day before and the day ahead. You can sign up to receive it as an e-mail here.
