Thank you! I’ll post more info when it’s available, but Arcanist has three other albums available on Yuggoth Records, each one exploring different worlds in CAS’s universe. They’ve got a Bandcamp if you’re interested. Best, M

I think there’s an Outer Limits episode called β€˜Counter Weight’, and it has some creepy stop motion tentacle monster.

A brick entrance gate to a university campus, with people walking inside on a sunny autumn day. On the pavement in front of the gate, a message is written in large yellow chalk letters that reads, β€œNick Fuentes is right about Israel.” Fallen leaves are scattered across the ground.

Spotted at Harvard today. Not great at all at how this nazi is being mainstreamed and normalized. This shit is absolutely not welcomed here. Used water from my water bottle to erase part of it.

Reader Beware: John Langan’s β€œErrata” - Reactor A glimpse inside the dark and twisted horror of modern publishing...

Did I make it into @reactorsff.bsky.social's Reading the Weird? Well, not directly. But my mention in @johnlangan.bsky.social's "Errata" did.

@michaelwhelan.bsky.social Nifft the Lean is one of my favorite Sword & Sorcery books of all time, as is the amazing cover. Could you talk a bit about how this cover came to be? Did the brief describe this scene specifically, or were you provided a manuscript to make your own choices? Thanks!

Both Jones and Corben (and Charles Burns) are the only comic cool artists who’s style actually scares me. All of them are iconic.

Beyond the simple moral imperative to feed people with no strings attached, I think it's important to consider the beautiful, transformative things that happen when people no longer have to spend all their energy fighting for their basic needs. Life becomes so much better for everyone in every way!
