My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

If you wanna help a slow animal cross a busy street, that’s cool. But please, don’t put an animal back where they came from, even if you do it to keep them safe.
They’re trying to get somewhere else and they’re gonna keep trying. It’s keeping them in danger longer
Thanks.

I said “he must want to be somewhere else then” and we watched to make sure he’d make it across the pavement. Once he did, we left and saw him crawling through the grass toward a drainage where it had probably been trying to get to all afternoon

Christy and I were leaving a store and we saw this guy and watched him. Apparently, people had moved him twice into a lightly wooded area next to the parking lot but he kept coming out and crossing the pavement.

Fuck this. It's trash, it's outsourcing your own brain and creativity, outsourcing your own humanity, to a massive bullshit machine. It's the hottest steamiest smoothest BULLSHIT of the highest order and DO NOT fall for it.

One of my favorite things about rewatching the Sopranos is the constant reminder of what an absolute fucking banger the theme song is

They are displaying no badges or uniforms. I see no authority, just fascist kidnappers

Wrote and Penciled an 8 page comic this week to experimental with a few things and started inking it last night.
When you do something quick with no expectations except to see how things play out, it makes it easy to remember what you love about the entire process

This tracks… not just that this book is Erin’s jam but that this is a common reaction to a Corey gift

Tomorrow starts October and also starts a new batch of Halloween episodes of The Picture Show
Here’s a hint of what to expect….

My friend had a podcast where his guests revisit something from their childhood to see how it holds up and this was one I took on there.
I’m not gonna say it holds up flawlessly, but as a kids adventure movie, it holds together pretty well. Bonus: theres some really solid cinematography throughout

Green screen sets and the stupid Volume bullshit have become so commonplace that watching “Black Rabbit” was refreshing to watch just for the fact that it was obviously filmed on location and on actual sets.
It feels like an actual story in the actual world because of that
