Seeing a blatant fascist dismantling and takeover of the government and using it as an opportunity to mostly complain about the left or throw trans people under the bus means you're helping them. No other way to slice it.

In my latest CBR piece, I dive into the history of Zombie Tramp and why Zombie Tramp #13, written and drawn by Dan Mendoza, is one of the best horror comics ever made. CW for this one as it touches on sexual abuse, bullying, classism and suicide. www.cbr.com/zombie-tramp...

This was published at near perfect timing, wasn’t it? My latest article for CBR is about the deeply anti-fascist subtext and progressive messaging of Action Comics #1, the first appearance of Superman and widely considered to be the first superhero comic book. www.cbr.com/action-comic...

I think about this a lot. If I’m a single issue voter this is my issue, and it is wild to me that I appear to be alone on that island

The thing that really differentiates Bluesky is that it doesn’t feel like it was designed by a bunch of people who will lose their jobs if I spend a little less time on Bluesky.

In my book “Diesel Doctrine,” I wrote about a young man who was extremely disillusioned with life. He was essentially having a quarter life crisis. I want to make it perfectly clear that that’s not me and really hasn’t for a long time. Mitchell Derrick is dead.
