SIDNEY: Yeah, well, you’re forgetting one thing about Billy Loomis.

MICKEY: What’s that?

Netflix bought WBD.

Either they’ll put their movies on blu-ray now, or THE BATMAN PART 2 will be released in theaters for one day and banished to streaming. I’d roll the dice on the last one.

Tabling one script because I couldn’t break the story and moving on to another...

A slasher set in the 1950s.

The slasher movie didn’t exist then. How will the characters survive? They’ll have to look to the horror movies of the time.

If you’re shopping on Black Friday remember this: treat retail workers with respect.

Here’s my and @matlopes.bsky.social back cover for BATMAN & ROBIN: YEAR ONE #12.
I felt like we needed just one more smiling image of B&R in their tweaked costumes to put a button on the issue/series. Thanks for letting me squeeze it in there @amarino2814.bsky.social @roblevin.bsky.social @dc.com

With a few exceptions, this year’s Hallmark Christmas movies are lagging. MELT MY HEART THIS CHRISTMAS felt like it started at the end of act one. Very little stakes.

Mr Terrific has some bad news for Batman.
With the clock ticking, can an infected Batman stop ‘The Courage that Kills’ before it hits Gotham?
Detective Comics #1102 is out now!

An FBI agent-in-training filed a lawsuit after he was handed a letter signed by the bureau’s director, Kash Patel, saying that he was being “summarily dismissed” because of “political signage.” The only thing that could be, he quickly realized, was a rainbow pride flag that had hung near his desk.

He described his dismissal as the latest move by senior F.B.I. officials to play politics, damaging morale and hindering the bureau’s ability to carry out its public safety mission.

Shouldn’t PDFs of this past year’s movies be released soon? Seems like I read a bunch already this time last year.

That moment followed by his calling a reporter "insubordinate" while shrugging off the murder of a journalist would have ended other presidencies. "Piggy" enraged me less than the silence that followed--the indifference, the cowardice, the collective shrug is what enables the eradication of decency.
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Not that anyone gives a rat’s ass about me on here, but I need a place to vent.

Just went through three weeks of THE WORST ODC episodes ever. Constant crying. Panic attacks. Ritual showering. Bleeding skin. Severe depression. Changed meds. Everything went to shit. Trying to claw back from it.

Really think it’d be good for my mental health if I could live somewhere new.
