As the years go by and the last eyewitnesses to the Holocaust pass away, it's more important than ever to keep that tragic memory alive — and to remember the stark lessons of what happens when a society gives power to hate and racism.

Buscema was always an artist that I undervalued when I was young. He wasn't *flashy*, but he was a solid draftsman with great and very readable layouts. He was foundational in a way that many fans didn't value, but should have.

Doc, Flash has OPTIONS, you know. I mean, quite a few of them, to be honest. :)

It's hard to envision now just how big Byrne was in the early 80s. He and Perez were gods, then. Alpha Flight started with hope it would be another Byrne/Claremont X-Men and then...it just sort of fizzled? I remember starting it and then just sort of wandering away from it.

I mean, Leiji Matsumoto knew the score in 1979.

Ah, the bold ‘Human Rights violations will continue until morale improves’ strategy! A good follow-on to the ‘why you gotta make me violate the constitution, baby’ strategy they’ve been employing.

OH NO. This is the first I'd heard.

In my mind, I can hear "The Vinelands and the Pinelands, Seaside Heights, Margate! You can have Miami, I love the Garden Stat." in my head right now.

He's being taken away from the government for being like a glow-in-the-dark yoyo, obviously. Wait until you watch the video for Experiment IV and some of the people in that one.

There is character in Marvel comics called Stegron, a scientist who becomes a dinosaur ABs uses his knowledge to do it to other people. THAT is Elon Musk, really. He doesn’t want to solve cancer, he wants to turn people into dinosaurs. That’s fun. Stopping famine? Meh. 5/5

It should also be intuitively obvious that the one of the world richest men is not using his money for people on that planet TODAY. He talks about preserving sentience and mankind in a vague ‘star trek’ way, but he isn’t doing anything for real actual humans, just his vague notion of ‘future’ 4/5

A classic Elon trope is that all these things are engineering problems. But he didn’t actually understand the challenges and scale of those problems. A great primer on how damn hard space is can be found right here in this book by Kelly and @zachweinersmith.bsky.social 3/5

Last year he said there’d have 100k self driving cars on the streets by August. He’s said this for FIFTEEN YEARS. Robots in one year? Sure, bro. AI manufacture is cheap in space? IT IS NOT. And we’ve never tested it in zero-g. And never had people in space longer than a year. 2/5
