Off Panel's a very good one this week, as @kierongillen.bsky.social joins to talk about Die: Loaded and The Power Fantasy, but we also discuss staying in love with comics, writing single issues as a trade person, collaboration, and a whole lot more. It's a great chat, as it always is with Kieron.

This game’s existence is an excellent indicator of just how popular Valiant was in the 1990s. It was insane (also a very bad game if I recall correctly).

I'm tabling at a full event for the first time this weekend — it's the Anchorage Zine Fair — and I'm equally excited and curious to learn if any attendees will find my brand of Stilt-Man-inspired zines remotely appealing. Should be a good time, but I predict I will sleep for a week afterwards.

It's insane how good @cleanlined.bsky.social is.
It's Lex Luthor vs. The Demon in SUPERMAN #33, part of DC K.O.'s All Fight Month!
Here's just a tease today of how amazing @cleanlined.bsky.social and Alejandro Sánchez are.

Each Friday on SKTCHD, I write about ten things I liked or didn't like from the week of comics, and this week had a good mix, including a coming Marvel event, dual digital launches, a retailer's big anniversary, some great art, Raised by Ghosts, the disappearance of high res comic art, and more.

Post you from a different era.

I just learned that Marcedes Lewis, a human being born four months after me, a person who gets injured getting out of bed, is still playing tight end in the NFL.
This is mind blowing to me.

I'm a guest on @marvelbythemonth.com this week and that crew took me on a tour of the best (most insane?) comics Marvel had to offer in May 1977. It was a ton of fun joining them for that chat!

Lucas Wars is phenomenal AND a phenomenon in its original home of France.
Renaud Roche is a massive reason this @23rdstbooks.bsky.social release is as incredible as it is, and today, I talked with the French artist about his first comics project (!!) as we break down five pages from the book.
