Ambassador Spock modeling the proper “fuck you, make me” response to intimidation tactics. Our current-day institutions could learn a lot from him.

The trip begins for Abby on this double-page spread... This was my idea, not in the script. How could I change YOUR perception of the reading experience? This was my solution, designing the spread so you'd 'tip' the page accordingly as you read, orchestrating the positioning of balloons...

I owned copies of Alex + Ada (Jonathan Luna, Sarah Vaughn) because the simple visual grammar and adult storyline (sci-fi + romance) make it an easy starting place for adults who feel like they don’t know ::how:: to read comics. Again, I never loaned this series out so it’s been deposited at my LCS

Just an FYI and a reminder. Alt Text isn't like a caption. It is for visually impaired people. A "screen reader" reads the alt text to them, so it should be descriptive text. If it's a verbal meme, you should enter the text of the meme. If it's a visual joke, you should explain the joke.

OOC: I love the culture of using alt text here but I've seen some dubious advice about how to write it. Here's a great article on how to write quality alt text: accessibility.huit.harvard.edu/describe-con.... Also, it's always a great idea to ask people who use screen readers for their perspective!

This stack (original Bendis run on Ultimate Spider-Man) was a great read when I first got into comics - but I haven’t touched them in nearly 10 years. Just sort of assumed I would loaning books to my friends more often. Dropped them off at an LCS this weekend, next reader is going to love them 💛

Astonishing X-Men Whedon / Cassaday / Martin / Eliopoulos Started a reread this summer when Cassaday passed. Finally done after months dragging the trades around “just in case” I had time to read, says something about the pacing 🙃 1/3
