Verisimilitude is better than realism in almost all aspects of superhero comics.

She needs to be less blurry.

I will be at the Forest Hills Comic Con on Sunday, May 31st in Queens NYC.

More info, guest list here: www.foresthillscomiccon.com

One of (supposedly) four NYC events in May for the release of Nerd Inferno. I should get a real photo for these things. This one isn't very professional. Blurry, too.

Jerry the Wizard auction ends in about an hour. Thanks to the bidders for their bids, all appreciated.

Yes, I’m religious. I believe in the Holy Trinity.

I’ve been trying to use my art to be more visible in the world as a trans person, I hope it helps others know they aren’t alone.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

1/ Here's what I can share:

Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.

Anyway the 40th issue of my pro wrestling fanzine The Atomic Elbow will be available later this week.

I know times are tough all over but I need all y'all to buy 3-4 copies of this so we can get one step closer to a "Pirate Corp$!" collection.

Life's gotten in the way but the next arc is plotted, the first script is halfway done, and eventually the series will return (and complete the main storyline).

The NERD INFERNO Omnibus collects all the material from the out of print Milk & Cheese, Dork and Eltingville Club HC editions. 648 dense pgs full of marks on paper. Available April 28th from @darkhorse.com (If all goes to plan, I'll be doing an NYC signing on FCBD May 2nd, possibly another May 3rd).

The BEASTS OF BURDEN OMNIBUS was published last Feb and is still available to be adopted by comics readers, pet owners and horror fans. "Dogs and cats defend their neighborhood from the occult" might sound like a silly kid's comic. It's not. Winner of 8 EisnerAwards. Ck it out.

Some people still gotta have my Gotta Have My Batman.

I would do so given that it would be an ongoing paycheck. There will always be terrible people in fandom and terrible professionals in the various nerd fields, it's not like it's a dated concept. But I've never had any interest from anyone in trying to adapt Eltingville again. That idea's dead.

Everyone contributes. The main thing is fun with friends.

Best to you and I hope things look up soon

It's too expensive for me but I still hope to replace the copy I had that was ruined.

I always thought it was a Marvel Tales issue with Mysterio (the cover with Mysterio's giant hands trapping Spider-Man) but it's not the right time period. I misremembered. It's a 20 cent-er, not 25. So I don't know.

My work here is done. Good night.
