Gotta shout out @gregpak.net, @ethansacks.bsky.social and @attackerman.bsky.social. Not just amazing creators, but amazing people. Their activism and organizing this year has been inspiring and helped keep me sane.

Thanks to Everyone Comics x Collectibles for hosting the first ILLUMINOUS Workshop!!

It was great talking with the audience about how to develop an original idea from the nucleus out, citing examples from BLOODLETTER to THE POWER FANTASY to ABSOLUTE BATMAN.

We LOVED it. It was 1995, and there still hasn't been anything quite like its flamboyant craziness.

RIP CARY-HIROYUKI TAGAWA. I still remember when a small group of us from the Milestone Comics staff went on a Friday night and saw this on the big screen.

You were a man of badass villainy, Shang Tsung.
