Holy canoli, there's a lot of you guys! Reintroduction time!

I'm CR Whitwick, I have a YouTube channel where, long story short, I make video essays about comic books.

Mostly, I break down and explore DC Comics, their characters, and their creators. But I talk about other stuff too!

Check me out!

Examined | Explained | Explored I was practically raised by modern media, and into adulthood developed an utter fascination with what can go into a creative work and what the audience gets OUT of it....

Great news, I'm not homeless!

Oh also I made a new video after five months... Enjoy!!

I have now played and finished Mouthwashing, and I think the developers should pay for my therapy.
I've gabbed about comic books online for YEARS, and this year, I'm actually trying to MAKE one myself (currently hunting for an artist, lol).

I won't share too much since it's a pending project, but it's called "Metavillain Malakai," and I'm INCREDIBLY proud of what I've scripted so far!

So the full stop dictator shit is starting. That’s cool. That’s fun.

Fuck anyone who says people don’t have the right to protest. If you even remotely think that way you are a cowardly piece of shit and you never cared about freedom to begin with.
More because of character limit:

I'm deeply troubled by what has happened, and I'm personally very pro-cancel culture.

I enjoyed Gaiman's work when absent the context. But I can't anymore. I strongly encourage other people to abstain from his work, if only so it's less money in his pocket.
People want to rationalize why a seemingly good man would do something that is beyond evil.

I myself am struggling to reconcile with the reality.

The truth is that he's a bad man, AND wrote things that brought positive change. Both can exist, but we wish it was otherwise. I'm done with him though.

Gonna gush about my fave #Superman story today.

Superman Smashes the Klan, by @geneluenyang.bsky.social!

A period piece story about the Man of Steel that pays direct attention to the racial prejudices in 1940s America.

Genuine, heartfelt, charming, and altogether perfect. This is Superman.

There are plenty of people behind the panels of #DC that made it what it is today, but Gardner Fox truly made it a Golden Age!

Find out why!

I won't be able to make videos for a bit. I have to focus on what puts immediate cash in my pocket, and YouTube just ain't it right now.

I'll work on stuff as much as I can, but I don't expect any new uploads for the next several months.

I hope you like what I have when it's out, though!

For those of you following my financial drama. First off, hi! Second, thanks if you donated to the gofundme!

Thirdly, I'm in a slightly better situation thanks to the donations received. Money is still tighter than a French aristocrat's corset in 1789, but I'm not homeless, so that's a win!
It's a totally healthy tan I have no idea what you're talking about 🍊

Dear. God.

The Nice House on the Lake by @jamesthefourth.bsky.social and @amartinezbueno.bsky.social is the most gripping horror I've read in years.

It's indescribably unsettling, existential, and remarkably character-driven.

It's also one of those stories that is best enjoyed with no context...

Gonna give a little love to Harleen by the always stunning @stjepansejic.bsky.social!

It's a great interpretation of Harleen Quinzel's mental descent into the villainess Harley Quinn. The art is absolutely breathtaking on every panel.

Also, Šejić REALLY knows how to make everyone RIDICULOUSLY HOT!
