Had a fascinating chat with Aiden Arata about the internet and the dangers of demanding what we want in our media. Her thoughts (as well as her book) are a must read if you have an interest in how the expectations of audience has changed with the social internet.

100 pages for only £6 - a Greg Staples cover, and inside there's Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, The Discarded (new Peter Milligan/Kieran McKeown series!) Rogue Trooper, Herne & Shuck, Hawk The Slayer, Azimuth, Judge Death and MORE?

The Legend of Auntie Po by Shing Yin Khor: 9780525554882 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books A NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST Part historical fiction, part fable, and 100 percent adventure. Thirteen-year-old Mei reimagines the myths of Paul Bunyan as starring a Chinese heroine while she works ...

If you're buying gifts for spirited 12 year olds who have read most of the middle grade graphic novel canon, can I recommend my book The Legend of Auntie Po? It's multi-awarded, and well reviewed, but hasn't entirely found its commercial footing.

out here blowing up his nepo baby’s spot for no reason. You made your kid be a co-producer on the UGLIES movie Ted lay off

I don't even know if it's that! It's kind of like Halloween just not on Halloween. You dress up as characters that are funny or that you like, and you just hang out. Beyond stopping for photos, I don't know if it ever really impacts my con experience.

I have in the past! Usually it's just a character I've gotten fixated with, and I make my own costumes! So it's not cheap but not expensive.

No not episode 3 being an adaptation of probably my least favorite of the game changers 😭😭😭😭😭😭 why would they do this??? Actually though??

ICE is not some far away boogeyman. They are here right now, spreading fear in our community. We’re so grateful to our entire staff and their bravery. They did the right things and couldn’t have dealt with this situation in a better way. We are grateful to our community activists that came to support us from @miracmn @litosonlake and Monarcha. We hope that if you find yourself in the same situation, that you find these resources helpful. Peace and take care of each other ❤️

WE ARE HEARTBROKEN THAT OUR IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES IN THE TWIN CITIES ARE BEING TARGETED AND TERRORIZED BY THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION. THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE THAT ARE BEING USED AS POLITICAL PAWNS AND IT'S APPALLING. REGARDLESS OF THEIR LEGAL STATUS, THERE ARE SO MANY LATINOS & SOMALIANS WHO ARE AFRAID OF BEING DETAINED DUE TO MISTAKEN IDENTITY BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY MIGHT NOT GET DUE PROCESS & A FAIR TRIAL. THEY WILL JUST END UP IN DETENTION CENTERS & A LEGAL PROCESS THAT HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS A BLACK HOLE. WE STAND IN SUPPORT OF OUR IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY, WHO ARE THE BACKBONE OF THIS COUNTRY. WITHOUT IMMIGRANTS, AMERICA IS NOT THE SAME PLACE. STAY SAFE OUT THERE & TAKE CARE OF YOUR NEIGHBORS. LOVE, HOLA AREPA & HAI HAI (5/5)

ICE raided a James Beard award winning restaurant & because the chef/owner was prepared, left emptyhanded:

Thank you @davidharper.bsky.social & Amber for sending us this incredible photo from the Comic Book Podcast Crossover Event with @badrm.bsky.social, @oblivionbarpodcast.com, & Off Panel at #NYCC this year. Have two people ever had this much fun? Seems unlikely.

loolllllll omg

Happy Krampusnacht, everybody!

The people at the top aren't people who made money by making things, however unethically or oppressively. They're people who made money by leveraging debt, trading on the market, and various bizarre quirks of late capitalism. The "success" of a company is no longer relevant.

Save your future self!!

Yes!

rip dad. you would have hated what happened to quality

i just found an online shop that still sells them, and i am buying two pairs in my father's memory.
