Run Rabbit Run: The Life and Times of Bucky O’Hare By Tom Shapira I think it is fair to say the comics industry has failed Larry Hama. In his long career the man has done seemingly everything – he wrote and drew and inked and edited. He’s been with…

Fuck Bibi and rest of this murder government all the way to hell. They will burn the world to keep their ass on that fucking chair.

My book "How to Build a Torment Nexus" was misunderstood as vicious and righteous satire, leading to the outlawing of Torment Nexus technologies in over 80 countries.

"To be honest - you would have probably gotten away with it, Mr. Hickman. Your ONE mistake was leaving a chart with the title 'my plan for a perfect murder' with your name, signature and logo on your desk. And on your desktop. And publishing it in a major marvel comics event."

Video obtained by @nytimes.com confirms the IDF fired on and killed clearly identified Red Crescent medics in Gaza. 15 were killed. Satellite pics analyzed by @ckoettl.bsky.social & @sanjanamv.bsky.social show the IDF then buried the medics andambulances. Story 👇 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/w...

"I am not accusing you of anything Mr. Wilson; but the fact is - you were heard muttering 'someone should take care of that little menace.' And for some reason his dog keep trying to dig up your yard ever since the boy was gone..."

"And do you pronounce it 'Ninjak' or 'Ninja Kay'?"

"Are you saying there is no Creepy Presents: Alfredo Alcala?"

"Is THIS one of Wally Wood's 22 Panels that Always Work?"
