LITG: Bleeding Cool stopped making April Fools jokes a few years ago, although we have known that we collect and compile these from others. Just so you know, the only stupidity today as of LITG is going to be our usual stupidity. Welcome to the Daily LITG. The world can seem like a terrible and strange place at times, but there are high points. You can still read all about comics, merch, TV shows, games, movies, and more at Bleeding Cool. Whether it’s Phoenix, Shonen Jump, Deathstroke and Terra or not, the Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long run the day before and the next day. You can sign up here to receive it by email.
