Exciting new release!

Mathieu Bonhomme returned to Lucky Luke this week!

Truer words hath ne’er been spoken.

"Who's That Smurf?" is a Funny, Self-Aware Story - PIPELINE COMICS The Smurfs get a fresh coat of paint and a wild meta ride in Tebo's loving/cutting tribute to everyone's favorite blue creatures.

Such a fun Smurfs book!

And Oscar bait.

And because the second half of the Broadway show is at least an hour quicker than the movie so they had some time to fill.

The cast of Asterix mourns Rene Goscinny’s death. Drawn by Don Rosa.

Don Rosa’s tribute upon Rene Goscinny’s death. (Recently dig up on Rosa’s Facebook page.)

I see people still conflate following an account with agreeing with everything that account says.

But, hey, it’s social media and people love being mad at something. (And Bluesky is no better than X at that….)

Ooh, you could soundproof that room and make it your podcasting studio, too.

Whoa. That’s amazing. I need to know all her secrets now, because I’ve tried so many things on my oven to no avail. I used a toothbrush to clean up my dishwasher, but nothing works on the oven.

Images shows the difference between the French character Asterix and the keyboard character star shaped asterisk.

Quick reminder.

That is going to result in serious whiplash, and I approve!

Black cavapoo Dog looking straight at the camera, scared eyes. He’s afraid of fireworks.

How my puppy feels when there are fireworks in the air.

Agreed. My fault for starting YouTube, though. 🤣

Some people practice yoga for peace. Others use it for sword work and blood. Swings and roundabouts.

I missed it by a couple days, but June 8th was the 28th anniversary of the first edition of Pipeline Commentary and Review. It may not be weekly like it was for its first 25 years or so, but it continues to grind on….

I ran across my first YouTube channel in another language where YouTube automatically translated the voices into English. It’s still rough, but extremely useful.

Asterix and Todd McFarlane’s Spider-Man?!? It’s the thought balloons. #mcspidey YouTube video by Pipeline Comics

The one in which I link Asterix to David Michelinie and Todd McFarlane’s Spider-Man.

I like round numbers. 😎

Every time a different Marvel comics character appears in a tv show or movie, another comics creator gets to write an open letter admitting (in not so many words) that the Robert Kirkman Manifesto was right — 17 years ago.

Watercolor on COLORED PAPER! Is it Even Possible? YouTube video by Niaz Hannan Watercolors

Watercolor painters always impress me. I have no idea how this guy sees the painting until it’s almost finished. The whole thing looks like an utter mess before it all comes together.

Definitely going to reach 1000 subscribers on YouTube before BlueSky. 😎

Cheese by Tim Minchin YouTube video by Tim Minchin

For when you need a good cheese pun, may I recommend Tim Minchin? youtu.be/bVKCHZqax84?... @bradguigar.com @davekellett.bsky.social

Don’t worry, on the show this week you still did a Gouda job.

It is established in « Asterix the Gaul » that lobster is one of the ingredients in the magic potion. Thank goodness Asterix’s village is so close to the ocean!

Strawberries are not a part of the Magic Potion recipe, but they are a plot point in the same album. I shall spoil you no further.

Once again, lots of people are proving they don’t actually listen to Rob Liefeld’s podcast while attacking it while missing the point. I seriously saw someone laugh at the thought that Liefeld would produce new Youngblood material — a week after he published new Youngblood material.
