In a writers room you have to come up with a hundred ideas a day, and most of those donโt make the page. Itโs the work of making something that gives it value. The patina of humanity.

06.08.2025 04:43 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0A comic with several panels about ADHD and shame. First panel, Kiki struggles holding a ton of items, while her peers only hold single sheets of papers. โI Spend so much time trying to fit in, hiding how forgetful and chaotic I am, but also pretending my struggles are like everyone else's." Second panel, Kikiโs mother is pointing at her. โIโve faced so much rejection and trouble for thing I didnโt even know were wrong, just for being myself, that it feels like I have to hide who I am.โ Third panel, Kiki is taking off a wig, revealing she is an alien โbut what Iโm hiding isnโt that Iโm an alien, what Iโm hiding is all the shame I carry.โ Kiki is holding her stomach in pain.
A series of Kikis with text. โShame that I couldnโt fit a shower into my daily tasks. Shame when I canโt let people inside because itโs never clean. Shame when I cry being overwhelmed by paperwork again. Shame when Iโm the only one late again. Shame for every white lie I tell because I canโt take one more rejection despite being so burnt out.โ Kikiโs face is hidden in shadow as she says โof course I change my bedsheets once a week.โ
โIโve used shame as a weapon against myself as a punishment to force myself to learn.โ Kiki scolds herself in the mirror. โHow well has that been working for you? Are you on time now? More organized?โ The Kiki in the mirror is revealed to be a child version of herself. โWhy am I never good enough? If I just stopped being like this, people would like me.โ Kiki hugs the child version of herself. โYou have been brave long enough. Youโve been scolded enough, what you - I would have needed was to be seen. Youโre not alone anymore, we will find a way. Together.โ
Small kiki is pulling the adult Kiki by the hand through their apartment. โDonโt punish emotions,pay attention to them. Missing a shower isnโt failure, itโs a sign, a clue. Ask whatโs missing, not whatโs wrong with you.โ Kiki is standing behind her child self, holding her shoulders in support. โItโs not fair that I never got to feel like I am okay the way I am, that no one say how much I struggled and took all the pain away. Look at everything youโve been through. It makes sense that youโre the way you are. Letโs try our best. Not to get it right for others, but to finally get to know how WE do things.โ โAt the very least, I can have my own back.โ
Shame is one of the hardest things about ADHD for me. I'm back and the book is finished but instead of feeling proud, I feel ashamed for not having managed to stay active, manage my household better or even shower regularly.

AI is a wonder technology that is going to change every industry, which is why
- people have to be forced to use it
- people have to be tricked into paying for it
- people who do use it on purpose have to hide it from their peers to avoid being mocked
Yeah. Unfortunately. It got slick at some point. I blame Caillou. I don't know for what exactly, but it feels like the thing to do.

Writer: Bryan J.L. Glass
Artist: Michael Avon Oeming
An early Oeming drawn comic with a pretty cool cover by Alex Horley. I think this is either a reprint or continuation of a Caliber Comics series, but I'm still trying to figure that out.
I have spent multiple weeks working on this story. We are not dropping it. I hope you will give this a read.

Isnโt Visionโs biology also based on Wonder Man? Somehow? So, heโs the mix some where.

05.08.2025 00:32 โ ๐ 51 ๐ 6 ๐ฌ 4 ๐ 0Are they familiar with the supernatural horror tokusatsu series Garo, and if so was it an influence on Rogue Sun?
Has he ever considered doing a team-up/crossover with Phil Hester & Andy Kuhnโs Firebreather?
What are the unexpected challenges writing a creator owned superhero comic in 2025?
Which... I guess is just Voyager again, only with more prep. Opps.
05.08.2025 03:47 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Maybe something like, a ship that intentionally uses a one-way space anomaly/experimental drive to shoot off to parts unknown within our galaxy, and has to take a longer/slower trip home via conventional FTL/Warp.

05.08.2025 03:46 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I'd always heard that Morrison just suggested the story's final beat (which feels like a Morrison idea). Not that they ghost wrote the whole thing. But the whole rumor seems to be hearsay and speculation, so who knows

Somehow, this is the 0.01%. It manages to avoid almost all of his recurring juvenile edginess.
Without a doubt it would be Ergo Proxy.
This is a series that has kind of fallen out of the conversation & once upon a time we used to make these kinds of anime & now they are just so few and far between.
