Comic book & graphic novel editor, writer, convention organizer (ECCE, Back Issues Comicon, Montreal Comiccon…), proud Canadian from Nova Scotia. You probably know me from Captain Canuck, True Patriot Presents or Sandstone Comics' Dark Coast.
In any other convention appearance, he'd be the bad guy. Our next guest announcement is Andrew Clark. Andrew has done art and covers for a lot of titles. Currently, Andrew is contributing to the Dark Coast Anthology from Sandstone Comics, and doing art on Topps Marvel Comics cards. He also... 1/2

Picked these up last weekend. The Daredevil from 1952 cleaned and pressed very well. Was pretty sure I needed 1 or 2 of the digests but I just bought the lot. Turned out I had the two (list maintenance - not my strength apparently) but one of the others was over than what I had so I swapped it out.

19.02.2026 20:56 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0You misunderstand. I would cheer for the American team if I was American. I understand that. Just, you know, your country is not particularly popular outside of the USA at the moment…for some reason.

If you are in the actual arena watching the women’s Olympic hockey game and cheering the USA…why?
Only acceptable reason is that you are American. If you are anything else…for the love of god, why?
You don’t have to cheer Canada, but a little silent opposition would be nice all things considered.
lol. Naturally…

These Survivors have to stop calling Jeff Probst “Uncle J”. It’s irrational, yes, but also irritates me every time I hear it.

Went to @backissuescomicon.bsky.social (I mean, I gotta since it’s my show) and it was great. Lots of people, happy vendors, cool crowd, special guests that I am so appreciative of. I saw some people buying some sweet books. I was busy but managed to pick these up.

Cleaned this book up and gave it a press. It’s not drastic, but it does look much better now.
