A few years back I became briefly obsessed with the fact that DC’s SANDMAN and Marvel’s SLEEPWALKER, two very different comics about characters from the dream realm, were being published concurrently…these pieces were the result.

It may seem callous for the president to be so casually dismissive of the death of a service member who died under his orders, but one must remember: she didn’t have a podcast.

A few reminders: you can buy a physical copy of Black’s Myth AND the sequel, The Keys to His Heart at finer comics shops and bookstores. It looks great on a bookshelf.

And.

My NEXT book from Ahoy, DRAGONPROOF, is coming soon.

Okay…it’s a holiday and the editors aren’t paying attention (probably):

Here is a link to the first volume of Black’s Myth. The whole thing. Because I’m thankful for you. If you enjoy it, pass it on.

#shakeyourclz The DC mystery books, especially those edited by Joe Orlando, are usually a pleasant diversion. This one evidently has some rare interior work by Mike Kaluta.

The House passed a resolution condemning socialism. Okay.

When are they going to pass a resolution condemning fascism?

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe.

Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.
