I agree -- everyone was so worried the people of Mongo would only accept Aura and Barin as their planetary rulers that they neglected to consider whether there needed to be planetary rulers in the first place. Or if they did, they elected to overlook it.

Aw hey, thank you. That one took quite a few retries before I was happy with it.

I'm afraid so, yes.

RIP to Christopher Mills — an old-school bona fide indie comics creator who did it for the love of the medium, which is the only reason to do it in the first place. He was the kind of guy who makes artist alleys worth walking, and he'll be missed.

I only wrote about 100 comics in my so-called career, but now that I'm dying, I'm grateful that I got to do even that. Comics are such a wonderful medium, and they've always meant so much to me.

It would be perhaps the greatest example of Flash using the sexually confusing feelings he elicits in powerful women for good

Pitch: A movie star whose moves always bomb, just pure box office poison, who studios use as a sort of franchise hitman to tank any tentpole movie for tax purposes. ENTOURAGE meets THE PRODUCERS. And make sure you rack up the budget on this thing because I've got the perfect guy to play the lead

I think I'd want to keep up that same kind of momentum, only instead of the drama hanging on escaping from space monsters it would be, like, a storyline about a big storm where a tree takes out the power grid and also somebody's pregnant

Dan Schkade @danschkade.bsky.social · 3d

Verrry excited to see that hit the main audience, it's been a long while in the making

Tournament rules explicitly forbid transforming into a second phase like a Dark Souls boss, and yet
