Celebrating Purim? Did you know you can get a graphic novel version of the Megillat Esther by former Batman editor Jordan Gorfinkel and artist Yael Nathan?

Seeing lots of “the rapid march to antisemitism by folks on both the left and right is quite surprising” posts show up on this site and I’m like oh really wanna know who isn’t finding it quite surprising at all

I mean at a certain point SNL just has to directly lift and copy the transcripts of these things, right?

Raise your hand if we haven’t worked together or just not recently enough and we should. Especially if you have something with your publisher just waiting for a letterer.

Larry Hama posted online, “I am getting messages from Comics Gaters claiming that the vast majority of my fans are in their ranks. If this is true, I truly regret the last 40 years of my work. And I have to question the clarity of my writing if so many misinterpreted what I had to say all these years.”

I had a whole conversation with my 15YO about this on the way home from synagogue and not being ok with hiding who he is as a Jew but also knowing when to not put yourself in harms way and I have to say it broke me a little bit

Just learned that Tatjana Wood died recently at age 99. Her colors on things like Morrison/Truog's Animal Man, Simonson's Orion, the O'Neill/Cowan Question, and the Moore/Bissette/Everyone Else Swamp Thing left its marks on me when I was young and impressionable. A major, unsung comics legend.

Tatjana Wood has apparently passed away at age 99. Her father was Jewish so during WW2 her parents sent her to the Netherlands, then NY. She studied as a dressmaker, met/married Wallace Wood and began assisting him, then pivoted to becoming one of the best colorists in comics.
