My sexual orientation is still people who are good at their jobs.

Hearing a three page interview referred to as “long form” is jarring.

I’ve only just started reading #FMLComix, but I already have a feeling it will be one of my all-time favourites.

Kevin from GLEAMING THE TUBE and BEST STUFF IN THE WORLD @kevshindig.bsky.social · Sep 10

Pretty sweet haul at my LCS today. @kellysue.bsky.social is killing it on FML (the punk rock comics content I need!), gave into the hype on the new Batman relaunch - @popheist.com review swayed me - and a facsimile of one of the most bizarre issues of the Kirby/Lee FF run. Hooray for comics!

Covers of FML issue 6, Batman issue 1 and Fantastic Four issue 9.

Destination Venus sells comics in Harrogate! @destinationvenus.bsky.social · 16d

100% agree. If there is a more profoundly moving, entertaining, fun comic on the shelves I have not seen it. I'm enjoying FML more than I have enjoyed any comic in years - and I own a comic store, I read a LOT of comics.

If you aren't reading this masterpiece do yourself a favour. Catch up.

David 'DB' Andry @dbandry.bsky.social · 17d

I have yet to make it through an issue of FML without crying. Best written book on the shelves (terrific art too). Thank you @kellysue.bsky.social for this treasure of a book.

Alfred Hitchcock's Kevin Newburn @kevinnewburn.bsky.social · 13d

One of my favorite modern pop-punk bands, Millington, has a great song called FML and I feel like it pairs with the comic book very well.

I dropped off art in downtown Portland today for the Northwest Museum of Cartoon Arts that is opening there. The set up looks amazing, can’t wait to see you there:)

This city has problems but a war zone isn’t one of them. It’s just another nice day in the city here. #comics #comicbooks #portland

It's only 25 days until we open and we've still got $ to raise. The great news is that we've raised 41% of our goal - $7400 of $18,000! We need to raise $18,000 to cover 6 months rent and utilities. So we still have $10,600.

Why is Chicago a GREAT town for comics creators? Concordia University (IL) student reporter Eric Perry asked me and (separately) Jazz musician Joe Clark, who’s done some comics writing on the side. A great tribute to our community in this time of travail.
