Oh damn this is gonna be so gnarly

The ads are awful but I gotta drive the traffic!

As if I wasn’t already crazy excited for @ericafails.bsky.social’s HARLEY AND IVY mini, she goes and drops this irresistible tease.

I missed him so much

Meet the new Ultimate Daredevil: Marvel’s cosmic take on a classic hero (exclusive preview) Ultimate Daredevil returns! See Javier Pulido’s gorgeous art from Marvel’s 'Ultimate Universe: Two Years In' (Exclusive).

Oh hell yes Javier Pulido is back and he's drawing Ultimate Daredevil. Pulido + Camp = 😍 aiptcomics.com/2025/10/21/e...

Reading DO ADMIT! and chatting with @davidharper.bsky.social about it was such a wonderful experience. I came in already loving Mimi Pond’s previous graphic novels and this amplified my admiration tenfold. So much story told with so much visual invention. @dandq.bsky.social

It was a great September on Off Panel, so I wanted to recap the podcasts that ran during that month for those that missed it.

Comics critic @oliversava.bsky.social joined the show for the eighth annual Superhero State of the Union, as we talked about where DC, Marvel, and others are right now.

I’m thrilled to be part of the outstanding line-up of writers @explodingarrow.bsky.social has assembled for The Comics Courier issue 3. I’m writing about 1995’s VIGILANTE: CITY LIGHTS, PRAIRIE JUSTICE by James Robinson and Tony Salmons, a mini I found for 99 cents at a resale shop.

I was so thrilled it wasn’t an incentive variant

'Our Soot Stained Heart' #1 coming in December!
Co-written by Joni Hagg and yours truly. Colored by Ropemann, lettered by Hass.

Ha! I had a $5 credit so I feel good about spending $1.99 for the cover.

I didn’t realize you couldn’t even buy digitally! That’s weird!

I did chuckle at one Jim Gordon line and a moment in the Green Lantern/Rocket Raccoon story. The book is just missing a wow factor.

DEADPOOL/BATMAN is not very good. Main story is the most basic version of this team-up, back-ups are fine to bad. Plus side: I was able to get a DWJ Thing vs. Barda cover.

This is awesome

Despite starting slow, I’ve grown to really appreciate what the ABSOLUTE GREEN LANTERN team is doing. Rereading the first arc was very rewarding.

Double Take: On the Atmospheric and Polarizing Absolute Green Lantern, and Where It Stands After Its First Arc - SKTCHD Welcome to Double Take, a column dedicated to highlighting different comics and each’s merits through a discussion between two veterans of the comic site space. One is yours truly, the person behind t...

Of all the Absolute DC titles, it can feel like Absolute Green Lantern is the one that no one can agree on.

Unless you're @oliversava.bsky.social and @davidharper.bsky.social.

After a barnburner of an arc ender, that duo looks at the series so far in Double Take and what makes it pop for them.

"I Want to Be Invisible": Javier Rodriguez on the Art and Collaboration of Absolute Martian Manhunter - SKTCHD I’ve said this already and I’ll say it again: If any project defines DC’s Absolute line, it’s Absolute Martian Manhunter. Nothing expresses the potential and power of the line better than it, as write...

Absolute Martian Manhunter is a one-of-a-kind comic, and today, I talked with one of the big reasons why: its artist, @javierrodriguez.bsky.social.

We talked about his evolution, the collaboration on AMM, the importance of its colors, and more as we discuss varying pages from the series.

Just a reminder but SKTCHD is an entirely independent and Eisner-nominated site focused on comics. Want to read ad-free articles about anything and everything comics? Subscribe for just the cost of one comic a month, and try it for free with the 7-day trial.
