Here to talk about books and reading and animation and probably karate bugmen
I remember starting high school, realising comics were available from the library, then making liking Bone my entire identity (it still is, really).

So proud of my Brisbane Bandits, playing that baseball so goodly. What a good game to be probably my last live one of the season ⚾

⭐Brice's 2025 picks⭐

Best book, comic, video game, and movie.

Takeaways: I want to play more video games this year. And read comics. And read more books? And ideally see more movies. Oh no.

Happy to discuss why Silver Surfer philosophising in space is the best experience of 2025. Thank you 🙇

A small comics haul picked up from some boxing day sales 📚 I mostly want to read more Doom Patrol this year, and always love some random Aquaman stuff.

Give yourself something to look forward to next year. Something less substantial than a resolution which can carry regret if you can't stick to it. Think of a book you want to read, a genre of music you'd like to learn more about, a curiosity to chase no matter how trivial. Keep your spark lit.

Tired of loud bars. Give me more bars where I can eat an entire pizza and drink a beer by myself while soft, whiney, quiet music plays.

This skeet brought to you by me sitting in a loud bar, alone, trying to read and eat a pizza while Goo Goo Dolls' Iris plays between loud rock music.

November things! I mostly got 80% into lots of things this month. Maybe I'll finish them all in December. Getting ready for a year-end wrap-up!

Rainy day chicken pesto sandwich. Local cafes around me know too sandwich some good sandwich, I must say.

It's because of this strip that I call my stupid cat when he's sitting on a lounge chair arm 'vulturing'.

Mostly because he also doesn't get any respect.
This PEANUTS comic strip was published #OTD on November 17, 1958.

October things! So, I barely did anything this month. It was a busy one. But I did read some comics:

📖X-Factor omnibus vol. 1
📖She-Hulk by Mariko Tamaki the complete collection

Mostly solid reads! Everyone should read more comics.

Look, I'm pretty new to baseball, but it seems like the thing about baseball, is that it's really good.

Gonna have to figure out how to bring that World Series energy into the Australian League ⚾

Swooped in and made some ShortBox comics pickups before the timer ran out. So much great-looking stuff to choose from.

So the AI transcript of this work meeting is spelling filters as 'philters' for some reason.

This is all too stupid to be our future, right?

September things! This one was mostly an excuse to talk about Kamen Rider.

📺Kamen Rider Gavv
📖Fantastic Four by John Byrne vol 1
📖Silver Nitrate

Loving just reading and finishing off todo lists. And it's always a big deal when a Kamen Rider series ends!

5.4km run in 38 minutes. Which isn't bad considering how long it's been 😬

Rewarded myself with a delicious breakfast sandwich and coffee on the deck.

Just give Tartakovsky a bajillion dollars to work on whatever he wants. Auto green lights forever.
Animation test for "The Black Knight", an aborted animated feature film project by Genndy Tartakovsky (2019).
The story of a 20 feet high Knight Armor controlled by a knight inside using ropes, pulleys, and levers. The setting is around the 14th century.

Sometimes all you need is a basic breakfast sandwich to help start the day, especially one that's chicken satay.

August newsletter! This one is a bit of a random set of things.

I'm liking Google Docs, but I might have to make these prettier somehow. Meh.

Willing it into the universe that I shouldn't have to work or have any function in society, but instead I should eat and take photos of sandwiches -- specifically Reuben sandwiches. Thank you.

I wonder if there's still time for us all to pack it up and be pig person pilots and rescue people and win flying competitions and live on our own small islands.

A July newsletter, mostly because I can't stop thinking about Superman and I wanted to write about it. But some other stuff too!

🎥Superman 😍
🎥Kpop demon hunters
📖I who have never known men

Done In Google Docs this month, because why not.

Don't overthink it: what comic book panels/pages live in your head rent-free? Drop four and tag #comicsdna

There's something about Mario Kart podium celebrations that can cure society's ails, I think. So much joy.

Superman was so good, y'all. Everything I wanted it to be.

I came home from the theatre and read Superman comics for an hour because I didn't want the buzz to end.
