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.

This Pee-wee Herman who is biking around downtown Anchorage right now who said “Why don’t you take a picture? It’ll last longer.” when I said “Hey Pee-wee!” might be an all-time favorite Halloween person for me. Very committed to the bit!

Now this is a GREAT comics mail day.
It brings @heyluchie.bsky.social’s latest, Happy Endings, which collects three wonderful stories including my Comic of 2023, Ocean. It’s so good!
And you know I had to splurge for the @goshcomics.bsky.social version that came with a signed bookplate!

My wife Amber's office has a small pumpkin-crafting competition that she always crushes, and this year, she turned one into an alien monster from Attack the Block. I love it so much.

My shop is now putting out physical reminders of the comics I’m recommending in my weekly comics newsletter for them, and I swear I did not ask them refer to me in such a way.

My wife just randomly sent me one of my favorite comic related photos of myself: When she creeped on me by taking incriminating photos as I was getting manga in the Teen Zone of our local library (that’s where all the manga was!).

Cleaning up my photo library and I came across the one time I took a celebrity photo at a con (ECCC 2018), when I asked Karl Urban if we could make Dredd faces.
He was much, much, much better at it than me, but we're a couple tough looking guys! (His words!)
