Never put it together. I’ve been going through all the classic Disney animation classics while writing in the evenings and I was just like the Leo pointing at the TV meme when I saw those cartoon dinos. Man, I love dinosaurs.

I’ve been obsessed with Disneyland all my life and I was today years old when I discovered that the dinosaurs you see on the Disneyland Railroad (originally placed at the 1964 Worlds Fair) are based on the Fantasia segment “The Rite of Spring”.

For the two years I’ve been working on a project that involves WW1. Besides reading up extensively on the war and watching documentaries, I’ve also been watching films set in WW1. I just got around to watching the 2022 German All Quiet on the Western Front. Fantastic film. Highly recommend.

Words of praise for LOST FANTASY #9’s BOMBSHELL-Part 1 backup from the comic retailer community! 🙏

But were they steamed hams?

‪Alright I put the “is” way wrongly in the sentence but it’s been a long night of FOC, brain no work no good ‬

Also how cool is our new bathroom wallpaper made by our very own team member Johnny. Like whoa!

Somedays you’re facilitating the sale of an Action Comics #1. Somedays you’re writing the coolest comic script of your career. Somedays you’re cleaning the store bathroom. No job too big or too small for yours truly! Happy Easter, everyone!

Want to hear me spill some secrets about this month’s Lost Fantasy #9? Give this a listen! 👇 ⚔️

I got a big kick out of the Spider-Man character PAUL being in McCartney’s place, with of course no shoes.

One of the things I collect is Beatles related comic books. This usally translates to homage variant covers so this week’s Abbey Road variant cover for Venom #256 by my Archie/Minor Threats collaborator and longtime friend Scott Koblish was a must-have.

Miracleman #1 signed by Alan Moore! It’s not often I take a back issue home from my shops but I couldn’t pass it up. One of my all time favorites.

If you’re enjoying the new season of Daredevil on Disney+ as much as I am, then I highly recommend today’s brand new DAREDEVIL #1 that’s available RIGHT NOW at your local comic shop! I’m extremely excited to see where this run goes!

Only here for one day but I’m making the most of it. LOVE this show!!!!

Bombshell’s story runs from Lost Fantasy #9 to 11 and I have a strong feeling that it won’t be the last you of her.

I want to give a big heartfelt thanks to all the people who preordered at their comic shop, my fellow retailers who supported it, and of course my collaboraters @curtpires.bsky.social @eamonwinkle.bsky.social, @micahmyers.bsky.social, and the team over at @imagecomics.com.

LOST FANTASY #9 is the biggest launch of my comics writing career yet. Retailers and fans showed up in a big way for the debut of BOMBSHELL and I cant be more thankful. I’m truly blown away and in shock from the numbers.

Had a mega good time at MegaCon last week with my fellow retailers and creators that I’m extremely fortunate to call my friends! Now onto C2E2! ⚡️
