Bonus (past) SuperBatober just to wish everyone a PEACEFUL week! And maybe a cute one too. ❤️🦅

A past SUPERBATOBER (for the prompt EAGLE) where Batgirl and Supergirl are getting a visit from Season 1 Peacemaker and his pet/sidekick Eagly.

Peacemaker: Eagly is not CUTE. He's a DEADLY instrument of PEACE.
Batgirl: Nah, he's adorable.
Supergirl (giving a happy Eagly a loving pet beneath his beak): Who's a good deadly instrument...? ❤️

Related but unrelated: I tried ordering syrup for coffee today and the surcharge from tariffs was 150% of the actual cost of the syrup. 😭

Biggest impact I've seen yet.

STILT-ZINE is towering above its peers in the Stilt-Man zine world. Nothing can compare!

David Harper @davidharper.bsky.social · 30m

No worries! Not upset at all. You're right. Honestly, that's the toughest part of interviews is reading the conversation. Next time for sure!

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I think I should have ordered more STILT-ZINES.

Oh noooo!!! I hope you're feeling better, at least!

NYCC was insane, but in the best of ways.

So, I wrote about it, exploring everything from it being so back and how the River Pavilion changes complicated that to Nick Dragotta's Artist Alley heat and the dreaded Butter Corner. This was a fun one, and it's best digested in chunks like NYCC itself.

Today on SKTCHD, I shared 20 observations and anecdotes from the glorious, and gloriously overwhelming, New York Comic Con. It's SO back, but it was a lot!

20 Observations and Anecdotes from This Year’s Glorious, and Gloriously Overwhelming, New York Comic Con - SKTCHD

New York Comic Con is over. It was a lot, both in the way it always is and several new ones — at least for me. But what stood out from this event? Did anything burst through the chaos enough to make a...

Totally get it, but timing considerations are always a factor with how free flow you can really go. Maybe next time I can dive deeper into the points you mentioned.

Glad you enjoyed it, though!

This may truly be one of the finest sequences in Slow Horses history.

Absolutely. I was just making a joke about how long it takes to figure out how to watch things in this case, but I totally agree.

The real surprise of our crossover podcast panel at NYCC was seeing my Riddler self come to life thanks to @badrm.bsky.social. I did not see that coming!

NYCC just finished!

I did the same yesterday and it was basically just me sitting and watching sports while cats slept on me. Very necessary! Glad you did that!

Spoilers for our chat: Do Admit! is one of the comics of the year, Mimi Pond is brilliant, and I loved talking about this wild book about six wild sisters with @oliversava.bsky.social.

SKTCHD @sktchd.bsky.social · 1d

In Double Take, @oliversava.bsky.social and I go in a different direction than previous editions, as we talk about the recent @dandq.bsky.social release Do Admit! The Mitford Sisters and Me, a truly great and original new graphic novel from cartoonist Mimi Pond.

Hot take for you: I think it's the best structured event when combined with the comics that led into it! It isn't the BEST event, but best structured. Worth a read!

Ugh sorry! I should have phrased that better. I have a lot of love for the Arrowverse, it’s just Peacemaker has a way different vibe and it felt more like the former than itself at times in the finale which seemed incongruous. They even had multiple scenes at Big Belly Burger! Apologies, Marc.
