I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw.

( Also a good excuse for an #art study )
A digital drawing referencing the quoted image. In the style of an early 20th century drawing, a woman in a dress holds a minigun. The text above is changed to read "Does the minigun make women cruel?"

It really, really sucks that the trick to figuring out the work is to do the work.

From Frank Frazetta’s Buck Rogers portfolio (1975), which reproduced his cover art for Famous Funnies from 1953 & 1954.
There is a large octopus that has captured a woman and a shirtless Buck Rogers is swimming above it and shooting at it with his futuristic pistol.

Copy from a comic book cover: “Possibly the most offbeat ending of the year!“

Comic books aren't just escapist fantasy. They're sophisticated social critiques.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd4u... really good video by @helioscopepdx.bsky.social about how @stevelieberart.bsky.social and Matt Fraction made the Jimmy Olsen comics and it's a great insight on both story structure and also flying by the seat of your pants when unexpected shit happen IRL.

Happy partially muscled skeleton screaming before vanishing day to all those who celebrate.
A comic panel from Watchmen, showing a partially muscled skeleton (Dr Manhattan) screaming in pain in front of two horrified security guards. Text reads: “November 14th: a partially muscled skeleton stands by the perimeter fence and screams for thirty seconds before vanishing…”

Vincent Price, from Edward Scissorhands

I think everybody has a “Wallace Shawn from Young Sheldon” — my first one would probably be “Vincent Price, the guy who did the voice of Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective”

Currently reading Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen and I can't believe Nicholas Hoult captured the energy of this specific panel of Lex in the movie

The first Superman Sunday newspaper strip was published on November 5, 1939.
This strip introduces Superman and his secret identity of Clark Kent and shows him going up against 1940s era bad guys.

Real uncanny valley stuff. I’d rather watch the actual Lynchian fever dream of a sitcom: RABBITS

Nothin else for it
Two panel comic of a person with glasses looking down at an open book. First panel reads: I think I might be bad at this. In the second panel they are scribbling in the book with a pencil. Text reads: I’m gonna do it anyway
