We’ll try to be better about that! - Stephen

when pooh bear doesn’t get his honey:

I totally forgot that someone half-commissioned me for it back in 2024, before dropping off the face of the planet entirely. Is this something people would want to read? I got through almost half the book... probably should just finish it after my SEED/AGE commissions.

Biscuit Hammer came to an end on August 30, 2010, five years and four months after its debut. Fortunately, Biscuit Hammer was translated and released in America by @sevenseasentertainment.com and is currently in print! (The less said about the anime the better...)

Fun fact: Indisputably, Mizukami’s breakout hit was Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer, which debuted in 2005 in the pages of Young King OURS. Of a more shōnen mold, Biscuit Hammer centers on Yuuki Amamiya, a college student who wakes up one day to discover a lizard on his bed.

Are you into FAST & FURIOUS and kind of wish three unhinged queers would do a year long deep dive into the franchise? Great, us too. That's why, for 1 dollar/month, you can listen to Brian, Alice, and @irisjaycomics.bsky.social do it. Sub tier will be available late next month at ko-fi.com/osgpod !!

Florida everytime a hurricane hits:

To their credit, the editors and owners of Young King Ours have stuck by Mizukami. He's had a series running in the magazine for the better part of two decades, right up to the present!

Young King ours is monthly manga magazine that has been around since the mid-90s. Its target audience is teenage boys and young adult men. It ran popular series such as Trigun Maximum (1998-2008), Excel Saga (1996-2011), and Hellsing (1997-2008)!

Fun fact: Satoshi Mizukami recalls that during college he filled “about three books" with illustrations. Thus he was able, as a fresh graduate, to pitch his first series—Geko Geko, a collection of absurdist shorts—to Young King Ours, a manga magazine aimed at older male teens, in 2002.

Satoshi Mizukami fans be like:

Fans have pointed out similarities between GAINAX's post-2000 output and Mizukami's body of work. Connections have been made between FLCL and Biscuit Hammer, and when Planet With was airing there was a lot of chatter about it having a tone and style similar to Gurren Lagann.

While in college Mizukami was still keeping up with anime and in 2000, the year he turned 20, he watched something that completely rocked his world: FLCL. GAINAX's landmark OVA opened the young mangaka's mind to so many new and experimental possibilities.

Fun fact: In the late ‘90s Satoshi Mizukami, still committed to his goal of becoming a manga artist, enrolled at the Osaka Sogo College of Design's (OSCD) Department of Manga, where he formally studied design as an undergraduate.
