John Curtin 🔜 PAX Unplugged!

GLAAD MEDIA AWARD WINNER: OUTSTANDING COMIC BOOK Avengers Academy: Marvel’s Voices By Anthony Oliveira, Elsa Sjunneson, Carola Borelli, Bailie Rosenlund, Pablo Collar, Charles Stewart III, Alti Firmansyah, Minkyu Jung, KJ Díaz, Ruth Redmond, Dono Sánchez-Almara, Ariana Maher, Joe Caramagna (Marvel Infinity Comics)

I am so thankful for the gift of this recognition on behalf of myself and all of the crew on Avengers Academy. We strove week after week to make art worthy of our community – to deepen and enrich the world for queer, trans, and HIV+ representation and readership, to insist we belonged in these worlds of fiction and in the world that dreams them. We wanted both to illuminate queer stories told long ago and to trailblaze new paths forward. It was not always easy, but it was always worth it. I am so proud of this work, and so honoured to have it so celebrated. Thank you. Thank you to all the impossibly gifted collaborators on this project for all your brilliance, enthusiasm, and generosity: our regular artists Carola Borelli, Bailie Rosenlund, and Pablo Collar; our colorists KJ Diaz and Ruth Redmond; our letterists Ariana Maher and Joe Caramagna; as well as our numerous guest talents – who enriched this book week after week with their gifts and perspectives. Thanks too to our editors, Lindsey Cohick, Sidney Stubbs, Wil Moss, and founding editor and Sarah Brunstad who willed this book into life. Time and again this book redefined what could happen, how it could look and read, and above all who could be in a superhero comic, and I could not be prouder. And, with great admiration and profoundest appreciation, thank you to my community, for always lifting me up. Finding all of you has been the great gift of my life. This category is full of the fellow artists who showed me there was a place for us to create and to live in this world, and I live in the enduring blessing of their work. I said it when we ended, and I will say it here again: comics will mend your heart, if you let them. When I was a scared, lonely, closeted kid, the Marvel universe’s heroes were there for me when very little else was. That is a debt I can never pay back, but one I’ve tried with great travail to pay forward. I want to believe we have afforded a little of that same refuge to those who soug…

Amazed and honoured that AVENGERS ACADEMY has won the GLAAD Media Award for OUTSTANDING COMIC BOOK!

This book pushed every boundary in this industry, and I am so grateful for the gift of these talented collaborators and this generous, uplifting community of readers. deadline.com/2026/03/glaa...

🔴 Investigation by VSquare reveals Putin's plan to rig Hungarian elections for Orbán.

Huge congrats! Can't wait to see your work!

I’m excited to share that I am starting work with Paizo working on Pathfinder. For years now it has been a dream of mine to work on Pathfinder and I now get to have the honor of working with Paizo! As a fantasy artist this is such a big step for me and I’m so unbelievably excited to work on this!

I don't think live games are the problem, honestly. I think the problem is investor and managerial insanity, where the people making those high-level decisions don't understand the business they're in and keep changing their mind about the risk profile of their business plan

Suikoden 1 - remastered 90s JRPG! Its not perfect but it's like a can of Campbell's chicken soup - a specifically comforting sort of nostalgic

I do not like this gen AI
I do not like what it implies
I do not want it in my art
I do not think it makes you smart
I do not want it in my games
I do not like its goals and aims
I do not want it in my books
I do not like the way it looks
I do not like it, I don't care
I do not want it anywhere

May you advance to the White Rice phase of recovery soon, my good man. Hope Lu didn't catch it!

Who the fuck is going to pay money to watch slop made by people who can't identify that what they're making is slop

How do you make art without an artist

You can't code insight, or revelation, or depth

I weep for the people who see this as the future of anything except propaganda and exploitation

Why hasn't there been a succulent dinosaur pokemon named Aloesaurus yet

I've been really busy. So when @geekjames513.bsky.social asked about collaborating on some Starfinder articles, I leapt at the opportunity to read some good work and get a little writing vacation myself. Talking about how to port PF2 bards into your SF2 game:

My SF2 character is a gun-toting time-traveling magus and when I say he is maybe the most satisfying thing I have ever played, both narratively and mechanically, the comparison doesn't even feel close

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

The image is of the cover of the upcoming Starfinder Second Edition book, Tech Core. In the top left corner of the image is the "Starfinder" Second Edition logo, and in the bottom left corner of the image is the "Paizo Live" logo.

I don't know how to tell the kids that "protein-maxxxing" is not a new thing, I've been eating peanuts by the pound for years

Fun reminder that Jared Kushner's dad is a convicted felon who along with his other crimes hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law and record it when he learned the brother-in-law was cooperating with authorities, and Trump not only pardoned him but made him ambassador to France.

the lesson of the pandemic lockdowns should have been "the only people important to the functioning of society are the workers who actually do things"
