@schumer.senate.gov so did sub-zero steal your spine, or what

I'd like to clarify that I've since seen POTA, and David was right: it's a very good movie.

What radicalized me? I don't know, media literacy? I don't know how the fuck you grow up reading/watching/listening to Star Trek, superheroes, Saturday morning cartoons, hip-hop, A Christmas Carol, Sesame Street, and damn near every piece of media and not come away with any empathy or moral center.

I made a good living working with WWE back in the day, and I am a sincere (though lapsed) fan of rasslin’, but I still die a little inside whenever I see a wrestling article as a featured story on a comics news site.

Made another podcast! This one is extra-good because @stephwilliams.bsky.social helped us out with it.

Na (x 16)… Batmarch!

So proud of my home state. Hope he comes to Portland next.

It's an incredibly special work. Thanks for writing it. And anyone even considering checking it out should do so, today, without reservation.

Boycotts are a powerful tool, so let's be mindful of unintended consequences. The only places we'll be spending our money tomorrow (and, as much as possible, going forward) are small, local businesses. Vote with your dollars and support the businesses you want to stick around.

I am so happy to be making this little show with my friends again.

This is a great read to start your week with.

I get the feeling I’ll be using this one a lot this year.

Hey, remember the kerfuffle about #meta no longer fact-checking content that's posted to their platforms? Don't worry: independent fact-checkers are on the case to let you know that THAT FOOTBALL MAN DID NOT FLIP OFF DONALD TRUMP FAKE NEWS.

The Golem’s Mighty Swing, by James Sturm.

As the dad of a reluctant reader who blossomed into an avid one with absolutely no prompting from his parents, I can say with confidence that this is well meaning but wrongheaded nonsense.

If you have never experienced the dark magic of TABOO, then treat yourself!

How sad to have carved out so little of a legacy of his own that the only way he can get a headline these days is to badmouth the company responsible for 90% of his success. Somebody's got a bad case of John Byrne Syndrome. bleedingcool.com/comics/rob-l...

Don't threaten me with a good time, Iron Man. #MBTMresearch #comics #marvelcomics

I feel personally targeted by @manruss.bsky.social who seems determined to make me cry every time I pick up one of his books.

Hi friends. Jennifer's memorial is just about 2 months away. It will be held on Sunday, April 6th at @bkswpicspdx.bsky.social We're also going to be planning an entire weekend of Stuff Jennifer Loved Doing. If you'd like to be kept in the loop on that, please drop us an RSVP at bit.ly/jenniferRSVP

If we're pitching alternate headlines, can I suggest "Rob Finally Takes the Hint"? www.comicsbeat.com/rob-liefeld-...

Happy Actual Batman Day.
