Please support if you are so inclined. With the gutting of Dept of Education there seems to be a lower priority on comics every time, even though they are not only enrichment but have educational value, Scott McCloud in particular.

Well now I have one million *and one* reasons to hate this stupid fucking war.

Paul Grist is criminally under appreciated. One of my very favorite comics creators of all time.

I saw this was coming out and was interested (love Grell and have never read more than a few issues of WARLORD), but Omnibii are not my favorite format. Still, if it’s <800 pages and printed on newsprint…

So excited to be able to share our conversation with @geneluenyang.bsky.social, one of the nicest and most talented creators in comicdom!

Finally, I'm glad to see that perennial punching bag Don Heck is finally getting his due. Treat yourself to his westerns and romance comics. His greatest sin was being part of Marvel's birth and not being named Kirby, Lee, or Ditko. Sad that he's not inducted under his birth name, "Don Hell" tho. 😢

Milestone Media was such an extraordinary achievement, especially for its era. A Black-owned company doing unapologetically BIPOC superheroes and getting distribution from DC is a hell of a trick. Denys Cowan is a comics revolutionary. milestone.media/legacy-histo...

The one about Dave Sim The one about Dave Sim

Dave Sim is wrong about nearly everything outside of the art and business of comics, but he's an absolute genius of the medium and a lifelong champion of creators' rights. Image might not exist without him; that's not an exaggeration. He deserves to be in the Hall. www.comicsbeat.com/the-one-abou...

Gerry Conway looks to reclaim the Punisher skull symbol with BLM fundraiser - The Beat Conway, co-creator of The Punisher, organized the fundraiser for Black Lives Matter as a response to police appropriation of The Punisher's skull symbol.

Gerry Conway accomplished more in comics before his 20th birthday than most writers achieve in a lifetime. He's also a kind and generous soul, fully endorsing @kellysue.bsky.social's CAPTAIN MARVEL and working with Black Lives Matter to reclaim the Punisher logo: www.comicsbeat.com/gerry-conway...

I posted about THE ETERNAUT a couple of days ago, so you already know how I feel about Hector German Osterheld. Any excuse to keep saying his name and talking about what he did is good for our souls. www.fantagraphics.com/products/the...

(He also was kind enough not to sue me ~25 years ago when I stole concepts and imagery from BRAT PACK for a band I was in.)

Swamp Thing 1989 release details announced DC announced details for Swamp Thing 1989 that will conclude Rick Veitch’s acclaimed late-1980s run on Swamp Thing.

Rick Veitch had the unenviable job of following Alan Moore on SWAMP THING and crushed it. So glad we're finally getting the rest of his run. His King Hell Press stuff is legitimately mindblowing. The platonic ideal of an indie cartoonist. www.comicsbeat.com/swamp-thing-...

Tom Palmer, Inker & Illustrator Interview Part 1 by Alex Grand & Jim Thompson - Comic Book Historians Alex Grand and co-host Jim Thompson interview Tom Palmer about his extensive career as both inker and illustrator starting at the Frank Reilly school, learning from Jack Kamen, illustration for advert...

Tom Palmer is legit legend who improved everything he touched. He was usually credited as an inker, but "embellisher" is closer to the truth. He brought out hidden details that others missed. The Comic Book Historians podcast has a great interview: comicbookhistorians.buzzsprout.com/140033/episo...
