inMy comic book win: From solo stories to loving team books
Jonathan Hickman's Avengers run actually made me appreciate big teams. He managed to give even minor characters moments that mattered, like Sunspot getting his own squad. The scope of that story, with all those moving parts, created a tension you can't get from one hero alone. A good team book feels like a world, not just a person.

inPSA: Older installers used to pass down tips while we worked, but now the new crew learns from videos.
Pausing and rewinding is handy, but having someone right there to show you the trick just clicks better for me. You pick up on little things they don't always put in videos.

inThe day I realized 'no sugar added' doesn't mean sugar-free
You mentioning "no sugar added" labels on fruit juices hits home. I did the same thing, always choosing those bottles thinking they were the better option. Learning about natural sugars in stuff like orange juice or apple juice was a wake-up call. Now I skip the front label and go straight to the nutrition facts for total sugar. It made me switch to just drinking water most of the time. Those marketing phrases really do trick you if you don't know better.
