I wrote about “bad storytelling” in comics. What people mean when they make the accusation, what it indicates about how they view the medium and whether it’s really all that bad. aubreysitterson.substack.com/p/whats-bad-...

"Sleep #1 sets a moody, deliberate tone with its quiet horror and visual symbolism." @imagecomics.com #comicooks #comics #NCBD Read Landon's review:

"There is something that @tonyfleecs.bsky.social does with The Thing that says so much about the character, and it perfectly illustrates what being a hero is all about." THE THING #1 hits shelves today!

RoboWolf was a lot of fun. Its @deadgremlincomix.bsky.social who I encourage you to follow on Instagram. I found him there a good while back, now he's got a ton of major published work. This one has Capcom walk-through-beat-em-up in its DNA so I'm there for it. Already ordered more before I left!

Introducing Jackson Crater. But is he a violent terrorist, a valiant freedom fighter, or something else entirely? Make your own decision in FREE PLANET #2, in comics shops June 11. PREORDER to avoid having to wait for the second printing! Full preview: bit.ly/CraterWasRight

I was blown away by this full-throated endorsement of FREE PLANET from the legendary Walter Simonson. Tell your local comic shop TODAY that you need copies of the FREE PLANET #1 second printing and the first printing of #2!

In FREE PLANET #2, Jed Dougherty and I continue to bring you the Shape of Comics to Come. Here, Victor and Keen spar with traditional Surroko kuttuks in one of our holistically approached spreads. In stores June 11. Full preview: bit.ly/CraterWasRight

From FREE PLANET #2, coming June 4. This is a special page. Years ago, before we’d been announced, Jed sold this original art to someone at a con based solely on our pitch for the book and the self-evident fact that Jed’s art is incredible. Full preview: bit.ly/CraterWasRight

It’s a Daredevil

In honor of Jack, you gotta have one dude looking into the foreground and pointing back at Cap as he thrashes the horde.

Fanart on creator-owned books is important, as it indicates that readers are actually connecting with the characters. Which is why @alecbezzina.bsky.social's Keen Surroko is so very gratifying, especially after only a single issue. We want to see your FREE PLANET fanart!

FOC for FREE PLANET #2 is tomorrow, Monday, May 19! Call your local comic shop and ask to add The Shape of Comics to Come to your pull list!

When hitting your local comic shop today, make sure you don’t miss a single issue of FREE PLANET: Set up a subscription! And if you chance upon one of our sold-out debut issues in the wild, snag it and share the Shape of Comics to Come with a friend!

Can’t decide what my favorite part is: The pose or his absolutely outrageous quads.

Talking with my buddy Josh Flanagan is always a pleasure but I was particularly excited to catch up with him about my evolving views on the comics medium and how they informed FREE PLANET.

In the words of my brother @mattbors.bsky.social, this is a Full Power comics haul. Thanks for your support over the years, @iankeiththomas.bsky.social! I’m stoked you were able to snag a copy of the first printing!!!

I wrote about VAGABOND and Inoue's incredible ability to create literary depth and richness without placing a single word upon the page. substack.com/@aubreysitte...

It’s a fantastic week for sci-fi fans, with four new @imagecomics.com sci-fi comics hitting our shelves!!! A new volume of Saga, the collected volume of the absolutely stunning Precious Metal, and two brand new series, Blood & Thunder and Free Planet all releaseing this week.

If you haven't already, today is the day to let your local comics retailer know that you loved BLOOD & THUNDER #1 and you want to keep receiving the series monthly! Just because you found a #1 on the shelf doesn't mean a #2 will be available unless you ask for it!

FREE PLANET's bibliography owes an extensive amount to the Los Angeles Public Library system, so I really love seeing people get access to the book this way. Though I don't envy you having to read all those spreads digitally! Fortunately, the second printing hits June 4!
