#shakeyourclz Ho boy. This series was a huge disappointment. Talented folks working on it, but it just didn't work.

i hate this, how dead on this is 😭 nightmare fuel

#shakeyourclz Gladstone comics reawakened my love of Carl Barks (whose name I barely knew) and instilled a love of Floyd Gottfredson, Don Rosa, Daan Jippes, Freddy Milton and William Van Horn.

1. The Philadelphia Inquirer has 2 journalists - our chief political writer and foreign affairs columnist - in Germany for its critical election. A friend yesterday called us "a regional newspaper" but I'd say we're a historic legacy news org (with 23 Pulitzers)... www.inquirer.com/politics/ger...

Twitter is state media. I recommend deleting it.

I'll never get tired of drawing Superman. The original, the greatest superhero.

#shakeyourclz Not a series that ever really thrilled me -- I think they just spread Spidey too thin. I'll probably sell this.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Artists, writers, editors and comic publishers, I'm having a bit of a lull in my workload so I'm looking for a few new projects to work on. I'm an Eisner nominated, veteran comic book letterer who loves to be creative. Get in touch with me via linktr.ee/droog811

You're still going to have to do things that are FUN. You are still going to have to be YOU. You are still going to have to ENJOY YOUR LIFE and BE HAPPY. That's another thing you can do. Feeling like shit all the time helps them, and will literally ruin your mental and physical health. Don't do it.

#shakeyourclz IIRC, this story involves a woman who was voted "most likely to marry Batman." Different times.
