Tynion and Walsh’s Exquisite Corpses is one of the most brutal, absurd, and emotionally sharp horror comics I’ve read this year. #horrorcomics #imagecomics

So glad this is here! Definitely worth the wait. I read this entirely through the library long after the run ended, so this is my only “physical version”. I may have to go pick up the compendium next.

Great interview with Michael Walsh and @jimviscardi.bsky.social ! I just finished Silver Coin- an amazing horror anthology series- and am looking forward to Exquisite Corpses, out in a few weeks from #imagecomics- I have added this one to my pull list!

Money Meat: Summer Batch by @juniba.bsky.social is a fresh, original anthology comic worth checking out. Ba does both the art and script. He does two stories in each issue which explore current, and the second story is a great satirical take on fandom and intellectual property. Highly recommended!

Had a great time meeting @tylerboss.bsky.social and @ashcanpress.com today at Boston’s best comic shop, @comicopia.bsky.social
Check out these books! They are great reads! Matt and Tyler are on tour, see if they are coming to you and even if not get these books.

CREATOR OWNED OR DIE
COMICS ARE BETTER WHEN THEY ARE OWNED BY THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THEM.
Giant Generator wave 3 is underway at our wonderful home of pure creator owned comics, Image Comics. A small teaser of the next line of amazing books I co-created and co-own.

The use of specific historical periods in #thepowerfantasy also helps contextualize and build their world. This 1982 scene helps build out the role that Haven plays in TPF and sets up narrative beats in this issue. This also picks up on how separatist movements arise.

@kierongillen.bsky.social and @casparw.bsky.social are giving us a grounded look at how the world would be different if a handful of people had super powers . Love that with this issues they are explore family, and potentially dynastic implications of super powered people.

Issue 9 of the Ultimates- The Prison Abolition issue! Amazing work from @denizcamp.bsky.social and Chris Allen on exploring the abuses of prison systems. Camp and the team have also explored the impact of nuclear weapons testing on marginalized populations in this series. Best Big 2 ongoing series?

The Lucky Devils by @charlessoule.bsky.social and @ryanbrowne.bsky.social continues to be great! Love how they are exploring the changes in Cam and Starr and building out the backstory for hell. This is mining philosophical concepts similar to 8 Billions Genies but at the same time is unique.

#TheMoonisFollowingUs by @danielwarrenart.bsky.social and Riley Rossmo continues to be great! Issue 6 explored the nature of nightmares and the role they play in growing up. I love how the story centers on family- it has me hooked.

It's Wednesday, which means it's time for the weekly* #WeReadsComics. Folks are going into shops? What's exciting to you? Give recommendations - new or old. QT with a cover, ideally, so folks know what they're looking for. Comics! COMICS!

Loved issue issues 5 of #TheMoonisFollowingUs!
My take aways:
- Another great plot twist and continued world building
- Continues fascinating exploration of a child’s imagination
- Great use of two artists- one for the dream world one for the real world

Loved #TheLuckyDevils Issue 1! My highlights:
- Great premise- class war in hell, spilling over to Earth
- Parallel paneling structure explores two main characteristics
- Browne’s designs for the devils are outstanding
Excellent use of visuals for philosophic storytelling
