An Injury To Eye Motif in The Daily LITG, 21st October, 2025

As this goes live, I am currently unconscious, going under the knife and receiving eye surgery at Kingston Hospital.

As this goes live, I am currently unconscious, going under the knife and receiving eye surgery at Kingston Hospital. I'm not happy about this, but there you go. I am also meant to be going to MCM London Comic Con this weekend, and attending a comic book soiree on the Thursday night before. I think I may have to cosplay as Nick Fury. Anyway… John Cassaday's Original Art Collection At Auction was the most read story on Bleeding Cool yesterday. Lying In The Gutters is the daily runaround for the most-read stories the day before, as well as over the past seven years. Founded over sixteen years ago and steeped in a history of comic book industry gossip for a further eighteen years before that, Bleeding Cool has become one of the longest-standing and most well-known pop culture websites around. The Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long-running run around the day before and possibly the day ahead. In summary, you can sign up to receive Lying In The Gutters as an email here.
