I call it a missed opportunity because they'll seemingly put comics on the back burner and they'll go months and months without even mentioning comics on their social media. #LocalComicShopDay #LCSD2025

That shop does carry new and back issue comics, but puts more focus on the gaming side of the store. And I get it. Diversify as you need/want and get your money. Especially if gaming brings good business. #LocalComicShopDay #LCSD2025

Here's what I scored from the store I hit for #LocalComicShopDay last weekend. They weren't even participating, so there's a missed opportunity. But I wanted to support and left with a nice set of comics to work on some runs. #LCSD2025

Issue thirty-one of GREEN ARROW will be my final issue on the title. It's been fantastic to work with Montos, Buddy, Hass, Adriano, and Chris Rosa on the book. More than that, it's been a dream to work on a character like Ollie for DC Comics. I'm bummed we have to end things here...

Rest in peace, Jim Shooter.
(Sept. 27, 1951 - June 30, 2025)

Imagine starting a career in comics at 14 and continuing on to become an editor-in-chief and industry legend. Not without fault, and controversies aside, he was an important figure in the world of comics.

Uncanny X-Men #304 is my favorite single issue in all of #comics. Damn near anytime I see it cheap, I'm snatching it up. Found four copies at #HeroesCon. #comicbooks #XMen #comichaul #MarvelComics
