In ‘Shoot the Moon’ (Daredevil Season 2, Episode 2) Daredevil, distracted by events elsewhere, loses his focus, but gains the upper hand and smiles.
Why does he smile and what does that say about Matt Murdock?

Ah! Tynion and Bunn! Dang, guess I’m getting all three.

Can’t wait to read Bowling with Corpses! Mignola’s work is so fascinating.

A story of grief in a world left to a lone man attempting to keep his world alive in the midst of death.
Loneliness can make a person do incredible things, and guilt, even more so.
An absolute must-read!

Sincerely, thank you for putting this out there, but how long has this been available? I saw this before he was elected the first time. No one thought to check the president elect’s criminal history records before allowing this?

“if tHeY dOn’T, tHeN it wIlL be dEaLt WiTh.” It’s like on Family Feud when someone gives a genuinely stupid answer, but their team still says, “Good answer.” That doesn’t mean it was good. 👆 Shooting of multiple US citizens, entering a foreign consulate, drive-by macings? This was professional? 🖕🧊

But, nah, it’s definitely not a coincidence. Fuck ICE. 🚫🧊

Is that why my video had zero views all day?? I thought it just really sucked.

Gunpowder Prophets review: Bloody, gory fun with supernatural bounty hunters that pairs well with any other buddy-comedy action duo. Great characters, fun plot, and vibrant art, this is worth picking up. @madcavestudios.com @netgalley.bsky.social #bookreview #review #comics #comicbooks #art

Girl, same!

Fair enough. Looney* Tunes it is, then.

I loved all of the DC/Hanna-Barbera crossovers. Guess sells weren’t good enough, but I really wish they’d bring some of them back.

Gorgeous!!

Pig Wife isn’t about jump scares or shock, but about dread that builds through repetition, isolation, and things that feel off long before they turn wrong.

“News From the Fallout” by @chriscondon.bsky.social and Jeffrey Allen Love from @imagecomics.com.
Sinister, foreboding, beautiful. Zombie must-read!

Don’t apologize! You’re a voice of the resistance. It’s exhausting, but you’re saying everything the rest of us are feeling, but at a much larger scale.
