“Israel” killed most of the people who died on October 7th and it killed most of the hostages who died in Gaza. But all we hear in the West is Hamas, Hamas, Hamas, who, under international law, have the right to resist occupation by force. Any real peace will not include “Israel” at all.

I like Betsy Braddock, and like Elektra, and like Kwannon/Psylocke, and honestly even liked Tim Seeley’s sexy Rogue throwback mini!

But, flashing back to ninja Betsy, when you just gave Kwannon a solo book for 10 issues, and have Peach Momoko’s Sai in Marvel Rivals???

“Akira Yoshida”-ass decision.

Still can’t get over the fact that, in the year of our Lord 2026, you will be able to buy a comic called “Psylocke: Ninja” with this cover,

written by a white guy, about a white British woman in a Japanese woman’s body, interacting with Frank Miller’s Greek ninja.

Will never forget so much of the bullshit that people were saying throughout, from the perpetuation of the NYT rape lies to yelling at anyone questioning them, to the Vote Blue bullshit of Election time.

Pure mask off demonic shit.

So many believe in 'America First', even tho they might not say it

Lot of people treated a genocide of a people, sponsored by their own country, as an annoying pet issue that needed to be shelved after the killing as complete or pushed aside for other political problems. And pretended that it was just too complicated to engage with.

We’ve lost Drew Struzan. A modern master, who by all accounts was a humble, sweet, loving, dedicated man. His work influenced culture itself, & we’ll be seeing that influence until the end of the modern world. What a legacy. What a body of work. May he rest well, & may his memory be a blessing.

I obviously like her work a lot, but even by her normal standards, my gosh is this one impressive to me.

Love the range of people you’ve got inside this thing, too. 🧡 One of the most appealing anthologies I’ve seen in a minute.

I don’t say this ‘cause I think Krakoa was “bad” (HoXPoX rules!), or because I have anything positive to say about how “From the Ashes” & beyond has played out.

But, Krakoa was clearly a story that needed a beginning, middle, & end. And the story became a victim of its own initial success.

I don’t like engagement-bait like this, but lots of cool people are playing along, so sure:

A lot of fans who miss Krakoa and want to go back… are just the new generation of people with 90s nostalgia, or Claremont/Byrne nostalgia, etc. If anything, it should’ve ended sooner.

X-Men Don't Need Britches 💙💛 @rphutch1975.bsky.social · 20h

What's an opinion about X-Men that'll get you sent to jail? Is Jean really interesting or really boring? Should Logan have stayed dead? Do you think a certain x-mens outfit is positively horrendous even though people seem to love it?

The Brood Saga is better than Dark Phoenix imo 🤷

Apparently the Boom! Studios panel at NYCC announced a Larry Hama comic on the way called The Center Holds.

But, I only knew about it because someone on a Discord server I’m on posted about it, and a mention is buried in Boom!’s Instagram stories.

Only Big 2 matters I guess.

“Controversial at time of creation, DC management of the period pulled the stories entirely…”

I’m sorry, but I cannot get over nu-Vertigo finally publishing a controversial Swamp Thing arc… at the same time that it ditched the Gretchen Felker-Martin book in development due to a right wing campaign.

Announced at NYCC 2025: DC Vertigo to finally let Swamp Thing meet Jesus Christ in new four-part restoration of a cancelled controversial 1989 storyline.

Youngblood team-up variants all across the line in November. Here's the ones for The Power Fantasy and DIE: Loaded. This was a giggle - go click, as I've been delighted seeing these come together and ours were just fun to do.

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

With respect, Thundarr the Barbarian comics at Dynamite is the kinda thing someone writes when they’re working their way up to something like Conan. Not what you write when your Thor villain has already been played by Christian Bale.

✨💖✨ @uncannycarnage.bsky.social · 8d

So funny that Jason Aaron is writing a Thundarr comic for Dynamite.

Like, imagine you already wrote a decent amount of Conan the Barbarian and a very long Thor run, and then being like,

“I won’t be content until I write my true love: that 80s cartoon, Thundarr the Barbarian!”

Learning that the CEO of this website reads books from the middle to skip the "boring" parts really clarified the whole project for me tbh.
