This would be a good time for the writers of Superman (and DC in general) to remember that there is a fantastic but underused black power girl named Tanya Spears who needs to appear more in the comics. #powergirl #supergirl #superman #dc

I love writing Superman and will continue to do so. I'm still working with DC on the All-In Saga. Very happy with the work we're doing. Lots of cool stuff is on the horizon. To be continued!

I like the initiative but where is the new Superboy comic? You announce it and we buy it but you have to announce it. Conner hasn't starred in anything for a while now.

I love this!!! The only thing I ask is that the Legion be the Pre-Crisis Legion or based mostly on the Pre-Crisis Legion (Like Post Infinite Crisis). I don't want more reboots 😭

Help Tasneem and her children if you can!!!

The Gazans are displaced and without work, aid or medical services. They rely on donations to survive day by day. A ceasefire won't change their plight.

Please give to my dear friend Tasneem so she can feed her children and raise funds to make a home. And to others. ❤️

#Comics folks, I need you to pull up to this one.

The world sucks right now, and we have the opportunity to do a little bit of good for a displaced and marginalized member of our community. Please join me in supporting this KS campaign!

www.kickstarter.com/projects/den...

If you're somebody who values supporting marginalized voices in comics, here's your chance to put your money where your values are!

The writer of this RINGO NOM’D INDIE COMIC (and a very dear friend of mine) is a Syrian Refugee who has been through more continuous hardships than I have space to list here; constantly navigating visa applications, unstable living conditions, predatory landlords (limited options as a refugee).

Anas just wants to make comics and live a normal life like what so many of us take for granted. Backing this campaign will help Anas to take the next step toward freedom and autonomy, helping to fund a move to another country with more stable employment options. This is truly one of the most important comics purchases you will ever make.

Middle Eastern and North African comics creators are some of the most underrepresented in the comics industry of the western world. Anas isn’t running a GoFundMe to support this move, and is not asking for charity. Simply, Anas is using their talent for storytelling, along with Dennis’ gorgeous art, to offer you a beautiful experience in the comics medium, that also goes toward funding a better life for Anas.

I’m so proud of Anas, and humbled by their experiences and perseverance. I would like to see Anas’ Dream realized, and I’d love to see this community help to make that happen. Please join me in pledging to the Etheres Kickstarter campaign! (link below).

Sad to hear about the passing of the Michelangelo of Movie posters, RENATO CASARO. The Man painted so many iconic posters, specially in the 70s/80s: CONAN, TERMINATOR, DUNE, TOTAL RECALL, DANCE WITH THE WOLVES, BLOW OUT, FLASH GORDON, RAMBO, NEVER-ENDING STORY, and the list goes on and on. 1/2

I was reading comics from a few years ago and I realized how much we need to see more of Conner and Tanya more lately in the DC books.

@themightylayman.bsky.social The last issue of Titans is awesome!! I really love the Doom Patrol and how you write Beast Boy and Cyborg. I'm excited to read the next issue!!

It would be great if you made Lex Luthor have hair for a change in Man of Tomorrow, the character originally had hair at the time of his creation and in various eras of comics, we need to take more advantage of Nicholas Hoult's appeal :)

I have very little patience for comic book fans who expect a legendary artist to still be drawing they way they did 40 years ago.

I did it

A ragged Linda Lee robot comes out of a secret hollow tree and menaces Supergirl. The robot is saying "Mistress, why did you abandon me?" and Supergirl is saying "Oh no, how did I forget about her?!"

A panel from Action Comics #279 from 1961 by John Forte and Robert Bernstein. It shows Linda Lee waving goodbye to her Linda Robot inside a secret hollow tree. Linda says: "Goodbye, Linda Robot! I'm afraid I won't have any more use for you!" The Linda Robot replies: "Should you ever need, Mistress, I'll be here in this hollow tree... waiting!"

Little known fact:
The game Reed and Doom play actually works as a real game of chess. My nephew used to play in tournaments and he mapped out a workable set of moves for the story.

And we gave him a "chess consultant" credit in the issue.🙂

Recently listened to the score of the musical "It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman" for the first time.

Don't know if I can recommend it.

This one song from it, however, is an absolute banger!

Enjoy!
