I think the thing I find most offensive about the current labour party is their belief that white working class people - the people they’re trying and failing to represent, to the exclusion of everyone else - are as racist as they are.

Haven’t we learned by now to totally ignore Nick Clegg and to dismiss anything that comes out of his stupid, lying mouth?

Conversation topics at my LCS today 24/05/25:- Bad films, War comics and Airboy, Dr. Who again, Lunar and Diamond UK, Absolute sales figures, Ice Cream Man creative team doing Superman (well, I was talking about it)

My plans for a major retail emporium are being threatend by wholesalers who won't let me steal the stock.

This was another fun one. bit.ly/4dvZBzy

Finally managed to use my 50% voucher before it expired! The Out story clinched it for me.

Currently watching highlights from the Grand Sumo tournament. Would love to see this irl.

Thank Crom for that. bleedingcool.com/comics/dstlr...

Superman: The Kryptonite Spectrum #1 full solicit. I'm colouring the kryptonite! @martinmorazzo.bsky.social

Sneezed again. Didn’t pull any muscles this time.

I keep on pulling muscles after sneezing. Worst superpower ever.

“What do we want?” “Belfast Krautrock!” “When do we want it?” “Neu!”

Playing Warhammer is one of the most patriotic things you can do as a British person. I'd like an MP to state this in parliament. I don't even mind which faction says it.

Haven’t been in the mood to do anything today. Just a severe lack of energy and motivation.

Reorganising my shelves has uncovered so many unread and forgotten books. I need to do this more often.

Just saw my top answer and don’t need to post the following 3. I kind of realised this about myself anyway.

And with that work day over, I now have two weeks off, which will be spent reading comics, bagging and boarding comics, reshelving Omnis and trades, all whilst grooving to music. Absolute heaven!

Labour friends - when will you draw the line? Your leader is echoing the tactics of fascist strongmen and dictators, dragging your party and our country deeper into authoritarianism and towards far right future At what point do you stand up and say: enough?

Never thought about a vegan lifestyle before, but this plate of food might be kickstart I need.

RIP, Joe Don Baker. So many things to treasure him for but it's "Edge of Darkness" that lives in my head forever. He's *incredible*.

WTF kind of email header is this, eBay? You really don't know me at all....

If you're in the UK and you're annoyed that you don't know which AI companies are training on your copyrighted work without permission, the reason is now simple: the Labour party. This isn't a political statement - it's a fact. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

It will be cancelled as soon as the first one appears whilst I'm watching.

💯 agree. It’s a modern classic that will be top of the Dredd lists for many years. I’m so happy for my webshop exclusive copy.

Nope, not gonna watch the trailer. I’m going to se it anyway, so why spoil anything from it?

Another variant I couldn't pass up on, this it's time Batman #152 with the Frank Miller DKR tribute. Made me laugh when I saw it and I had to buy it. Superb work from Nicola Scott!

A truly helpful reference from Vashi Nedomansky, ACE for both filmmakers, storyboard artists, and comickers. The Ipcress File has been a favourite film for years and pleased to see others discovering its creative framing choices for the first time. Plenty to inspire! "THE FRAME WITHIN THE FRAME"

I adored Rare Flavours by @therightram.bsky.social and Filipe Andrade. so there was no way I wasn't going to pick up this Resurrection Man #2 variant.

Toughening migration rules doesn’t challenge Reform. It validates them.

Cayce Pollard regrets the day she took up MotoGP.

Post a robot that’s NOT from Star Wars or Transformers
