That's a great book! The only letdown is the superhero stuff, which seems to have been chosen for its historical significance rather than its quality β but there are only a few stories that affects, and the rest of it is solid gold.
Ron Goulart wrote a series of "Groucho Marx, Detective" books which are rather fun.

Ohh yes. Learned that the hard way. Cloud and on-site backups for all my work.
Bloody hell. Iβm still running Mojave on my Intel laptop, too many apps I use every day that wonβt work if I upgrade (which I canβt afford to do anyway). Dreading the day the thing finally dies.
