NYCC was fantastic. Great people, great comics, PHENOMENAL vibes.

Anyone who DEMANDS the Nobel Peace Prize should probably never, ever receive it.

Five years later, this is still one of the funniest movie trailers I've ever seen. The movie itself isn't great, but the last 20 seconds or so of this trailer still make me laugh so hard I start sweating.

Start at the 2:02 mark and see what I mean.

I also found this season extremely underwhelming.

This DC KO panel line is already massive!

@rin237.bsky.social Corin! So nice to meet you, Kennedy, and everyone at the Vault party last night. You all made me feel very welcome.

@jimzub.bsky.social Jim! So great chatting with you at the vault party yesterday. I was weirdly nervous walking into the party, but you helped put me at ease. Thanks so much, man :)

Unimpressed by the Mando and Grogu trailer and poster. The action looks fine, but at this point I'm gonna need better than "fine" to see this in a theater.

Plus, Season 3 was so mind-numbingly bad that it's really difficult for me to get excited about anything featuring these characters.

Research for my next comic ;)

PAID ART GIG:

I'm looking for a sequential magician to draw my upcoming monster/gangster comic series (issue 1 is 100% scripted). While open to all levels of industry experience, I'd prefer someone who's comfortable with/skilled at visually conveying fluid action and complex emotion.

Thanks!

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

We are forever at their mercy!

Very pumped for this. I've always preferred the HB era over Chuck Jones' take on these characters, so naturally I'm stoked we're getting a proper release spotlighting it.
