Will your cookout focus on the fantasy fare of one fine heritage?
Or will it contain all the cuisine of your multiethnic cosmos?

This is very sad news, but I am glad to see that The Deadlands will continue.

Read this and then: support the zines and publishers you love. It is tough, rough times for small publishers and zines. Do what you can to help them continue their good work.

My cornbread recipe involves tracing dad joke sigils into the batter. What about yours?
Behold, the corniest cornbread gets without dad jokes. This recipe forgoes wheat flour in favor of letting the cornmeal soak in the batter.

What twist will your cookout cornbread hold? Is it baked inside a star? Or is it the physical embodiment of dad jokes?

"I don’t think there’s a cryptid or monster more sexy or seductive as vampires can be."

Ryan Coogler explains how he settled on vampires as the bad guys for Sinners (and what monsters didn't make the cut):

As this country crumbles, Indigenous rights and sovereignty are going to come to the forefront, as well as States Rights.

Be prepared to advocate for Native tribes and people. We are the front line and we hold the answers to lead a new way.
