From the minds of Nathan Fillion and @heathcorson.bsky.social, and illustrated by @sooleedraws.bsky.social, comes Witness Point, a new modern noir comic series full of mystery, murder, and the chaos of a small town caught up in a massive government screw up.

Watching daredevil born again podcast and just being thrown off by the fact that Sana Amanat is interviewing Ayelet Zuher (I was like I know that accent yep another z!0) it’s so weird to me…
Another Z!0 in tv I knew Vanessa was carrying Zi0 energy đź‘€
The cover to Worst Man. A handsome, skinny white guy with red hair, wearing a red suit, black shirt and orange tie is front and centre, toasting the camera. He's clearly been caught by a burly guy with olive skin and black curly hair, who's wearing a purple suit jacket, white shirt and purple tie. The burly guy is sat in a gigantic wedding cake, with the implication being he fell backwards into it catching the skinny guy. As a result the cake is collapsing around them, but the skinny guy's foot is holding up the cake topper, which is cartoony representations of a bride and groom.
A comic page, with 5 panels. 4 panels are arranged in a stack down the left side, the fifth is a splash panel. Banner at top of page: Saturday. Wedding in T-00h59m PANEL 1: A close-in profile shot of a handsome, red-headed guy; he has a black eye and a thin trickle of blood running from his nose. He’s looking up, and mildly grinning. GUY: I hate to be a bother, I do, but there’s an itch on my nose. GUY: Hardly the end of the world, but would you mind? PANEL 2: A close shot behind the guy; we can see his hands, handcuffed behind the steel folding chair he’s sat on. GUY: I’d do something about it myself, but my hands appear to be caught on something. INTERROGATOR (OFF-PANEL): Is playing games something you really want to be doing right now? PANEL 3: The guy is cheekily flirting with the interrogator, who’s walking behind him. GUY: You’re the one who put me in handcuffs… INTERROGATOR: Come on, man… PANEL 4: The guy is rolling his eyes. GUY: Fine. What do you want to know? SPLASH PANEL: Looking over the interrogator’s shoulder, as the guy is looking up at him, with a cheeky grin. INTERROGATOR: What exactly have you been doing here? And why the fuck are you doing it? GUY: Oh, you actually want my story? Colour me surprised.
A comic page of 8 panels. PANEL 1: a photograph of a group of people disembarking a fancy boat onto a jetty. GUY (CAPTION): I was contracted to work this wedding, which let me tell you is stressful at short notice. INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Contracted? INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Who the hell contracted you? INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): What is it you even do?! PANEL 2: A cut-out panel of the guy one arm draped over the back of his chair, the other hand gesturing. He’s grinning charmingly. GUY: I’m the Worst Man. INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): …the what? INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): And how did you get free? PANEL 3: The guy is flashing a grin and showing his hands in a shrug. GUY: Oh, come on, I talk with my hands. PANEL 4: The guy is holding his hand in a “so-so” gesture. GUY: Ok, so. GUY: Sometimes there’s a couple that are settling, right? PANEL 5: The guy is pulling a “yikes” expression. GUY: They’ve convinced they’re happy, they’re forever happy. PANEL 6: The guy is looking serious. GUY: A friend or family member knows they aren’t, but doesn’t want the social fallout of pointing it out. PANEL 7: The guy is lazily gesturing to himself. GUY: So they hire me to reveal the truth in a more subtle way, before they get married. PANEL 8: The guy is looking up. INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): So why are you involved here? GUY: In this case, the story goes back a while.
A comic page with 4 panels. PANEL 1: A sprawled dossier showing research on a couple; a cis woman and a trans woman. GUY (CAPTION): Several years ago I was contracted to work on Galatea Telford and Merritt McElligott— INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): That’s the bride’s sister, not the bride. GUY (CAPTION): Uh, yeah. What’s your point? INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): So she’s not who I’m asking about. GUY (CAPTION): Patience. This is background. PANEL 2: A shot of the guy talking to Merritt and Galatea around a school teacher’s desk, planning some sort of schedule. GUY (CAPTION): So I got a temp job at the school where Merritt and Galatea work. PANEL 3: A shot of the three of them in a bar, with some other people. All of them are laughing except the guy, who’s a little more detached. GUY (CAPTION): Even met some of their friends. PANEL 4: A shot of Merritt and Galatea back at the teacher’s desk, flirting. The guy is looking in through the door, a small, sad smile. GUY (CAPTION): But what I was coming to learn was— INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Enough. I’m dying of old age here.
Hi #PortfolioDay! I’m Ted, of Brandt&Stein, and the two of us make comics! Our next book, the #WorstManOGN, is available for preorder!
So much of the comics advice I've found most useful is not big-picture meaning-of-life storytelling stuff, but "every page should end on a mini-cliffhanger" and "make sure each issue includes at least one splash page the artist can sell at a convention"
I tell you what,
Amazon MGM have announced they’re already working on a sequel to the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie
It will be called PhD of the Universe

distant to a lot of people because they don’t care about people like me they don’t care about people that don’t fit in their narrative…
I’ve never understood this argument… It’s not even an argument tbh you either have feelings and care or have a dead heart like what is it? It’s coming from a place of privilege… I know some people don’t speak out because of their work settings or aren’t vocal online but they know… I’ve just become
“You’re alienating half of your audience by being political”
Motherfucker, my “audience” is people who aren’t pieces of shit, who care about others. That’s who I make stuff for.
There is no “other half”.

I do love an ashcan comic 🤓 also I mean @ashcanpress.com too it’s a must have
Why does Amazon prime offer shows on prime assuming that you’ll be able to stream all the seasons for free then charges you for the last season???
My subway take is why are we even sending people into space now? So the moon can be colonised??? That money could’ve been used to maybe give homeless people homes??? Yeah nah that’s never gonna happen lol
Pugsley is being a real trooper but he’s not out of the woods yet, so another night at the anima hospital likely means the number is going up. Any hep you can offer is appreciated, no amount too small 🙏🙌💚

If we want to see fewer refugees on our doorstep, maybe we should stop making people refugees?
Just a thought.

The government can legally scoop up and read Americans' emails and texts, track everywhere they go, and feed huge amounts of data into AI without court oversight. Next month, Congress will have a chance to rein it all in. I'm leading a bipartisan bill to restore real privacy.
Terrific take on the "not really heroes but look what we've stumbled into" genre (if such a thing exists...well it does now). Caped kudos to @duanemurray.bsky.social @theahmedraafat.bsky.social and @robjoneswrites.bsky.social for a fun ride.
Welp, @scottbrianwoods.bsky.social and I got another grant for our book Starla. I am blown away, and so appreciative. We acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, and are hard at work with @shawndaley.bsky.social and @nealbailey.com helping us get across the finish line for! 2027
