It’s silly to complain about writers promoting their work online. Hello! We’re writers. I don’t have a marketing plan & publicity strategy to talk about my books & my publishers don’t boss me around to talk about them. I talk about them because they matter to me more than anything & make some money.
Does this mean we landed on the Moon's ass the first time??
comics artists should be making a lot of money due to their work on these projects that earn a lot of money
I'm a comics writer, wannabe filmmaker, and video essayist, I'd love to connect and be friends! 😌
A thought of "separating the art from the artist":
It's a way to approach the work as an audience member, taking it entirely on its own terms. Just the art, regardless of what the artist might be like. It's not about money.
If you buy it and the artist gets paid, you haven't separated shit.
Crisis On Infinite Earths but not for the main book, purely for Alan Moore's Saga of the Swamp Thing tie ins to it that managed to be a fulfilling tie in to the event while being a beautiful payoff to the ongoing story of Swamp Thing's own story.
You could be that person. You could be that monster, you could be that cop. And you have to decide, in yourself, not to be."
It's exactly what Baldwin once said: "Walk down the street of any city, any afternoon, and look around you. What you've got to remember is what you're looking at is also you. Everyone you're looking at is also you...
Such an Aunt Harriet convo lol
How are we still doing this in the big 2026 😭
Quit saying humankind destroyed the planet. That can be refined to get the culprits. White supremacist capitalism ravages the planet destroying everything in its path with no regard to if anything’s left. Indigenous ways & non capitalist ways sustainably support humanity’s existence on earth.
Yeah, it's something that's been on my mind a lot & the more I think about it, so many connections keep building from the game, South of Midnight to movies in Sinners and Candyman to television like Wonder Man to even comics and music in Hardware and D'Angelo. Just already know it's gonna be massive
He’s still just a dude in the government. He’s not your liberator. He’s just an improvement on the way things were before, not a final step.
Contemplating doing a video about it...
He's just a "coward actor"
Just remembering the time a bride and groom left their own wedding to join us in our march to free Palestine.
Here's the second about Vixen's first canonical appearance in DC Comics.

Truth be told, I'm still a little sad that she's not fully a part of the Superman Family because the connections have always been there.
Sasha from @casuallycomics.bsky.social made a great pair of videos about Vixen's origins in comics.
First up, her story from the Canceled Comics Cavalcade in 1978.

Real shit
Man I love making comics. I'm looking at the future plans I've got for Sagittarius, this first arc & the way we're going, if I'm steady, I'll be telling this masked asshole's story for ten years, maybe more of my life and I think I quite like that. As long as @zanemfannin.bsky.social is drawing!
car that has paint on it that says get tough fight cops and fuck ice
good car
Hell yeah! I wanna have a whole library of Keezy!
wait'll you find out what it's like to not have any stories or ideas worth stealing for pennies on the dollar. you might have to fucking come up with something good on your own and listen: most of them can't do it. they never have. their job is leech
I don't know how long it's going to take for people to realize that the majority of the art we make is communal, whether it's Comic Books, Television, Film, Music, what have you. It's all an orchestra.
I don’t care about an idea of comics that believes that “the writer” makes a comic by themself
That’s ridiculous. I am not going to argue with you. Nobody wants to hear from you
tired of cartoonists being used as a cheap inexhaustible source of IP for people who make movies and tv. tired of being paid nothing to make the best work out there only to be patted on the head and told we're not worth any investment. tired of watching our elders die in poverty
In the meantime, I got WORDS about Sinners and OBAA youtu.be/C4fuDty6h-s?...
I don't know when it'll be out but someday soon I'll be releasing a video on these incredible black-led pieces of art and how they intersect, how they contribute to the bigger picture, and what they tell us about we should be moving in the future...
It feels that way to me a good bit of the time (even moreso for me after living Black in a very rural, mostly White county for the past 23 years). Taking on hiphop stylings and looking clownish about it without realizing is another example.
