Poster for John carpenter the thing

Two weeks ago we lost a giant of the movie posters world, Renato Casaro. Today we lost a modern Master of movie posters: DREW STRUZAN. I can guarantee you have at least seen 5 of his posters in your lifetime. The man has put his art on some of the most popular movie franchises (Indiana Jones, 1/4

Elite solidarity is so funny

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Danger #6 (1953). The cover shows a central image of Secret Agent Duke Douglas holding his gun, with smoke coming out of it. Around this image are smaller scenes of Duke in action. In one he is in a fist fight, in another he is shooting at someone, in another he is running from gunfire, and

I particularly love his work on this series.

The best college football podcast by far

Genuinely have no objection to people having patreons and paid newsletters but something that stresses me out as a writer is the idea of having to pitch myself to people as a brand that people should subscribe to and again this is why I miss having multi-author publications 😵‍💫

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

Wonder Woman by Cliff Chiang

some people told dave chappelle his jokes weren’t funny and this ego maniac has been having a meltdown over it for ten years

i looked at the methodology for this and it is
a. sex addiction counseling group in texas did a surveymonkey and extrapolated the results to the entire us population which is the sort of research design that earns you an ff on an intro methods class (the extra f is for extra effort), and
b. p-hacked

A good read

It's not just bribery. He's now using personal litigation, backed by state extortion, to extract "settlements" which he then puts into an account he created to spend on government work, all entirely outside of Congress taxing or appropriating. It's full Charles I illegal taxation and spending.

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.

I just can't understand why no one ever asks me to draw Batman

The Who, on Observer magazine covers from March 1966 & March 1972. The photos by Colin Jones & then Tony McGrath give a sense of how fast pop culture moved in the period. (In the second pic, Entwhistle can be seen trying to restrain Moon from continuing an unprompted attack on McGrath.)

The Daily asks if killing people is legal

You see this is why I'll never make it in the podcast game. I'd just say "No it's not" and the episode would be over.

Oh snap!!! This is a slept on legendary run.

After our THIRD trip to the ER with a kid with a 106 fever ON TYLENOL & IBUPROFEN, a doc told me, ‘Some kids just have fevers that shoot straight up into badness at the slightest trigger… you’ve got one of those… so give Tylenol at the 1st sign of fever.’

Seriously my kid might be dead without it.

You know what’s definitely worse than taking Tylenol during pregnancy? Untreated fevers.

This is not going to end well.

i know we have to "push back" or whatever but this administration has us saying the goofiest, most obvious shit. late night hosts are allowed to make jokes. actually, WE pay tariffs. no, that's not how tylenol works. could be solving climate change but instead we're debunking middle school rumors

The idea of not having Tylenol during pregnancy *and never giving it to children* is actually an entire nightmare.

Fevers esp. in children are so dangerous, and we've gotten several generations removed so apparently have forgotten that fear. (Not if you've ever lain awake with a feverish infant)

Much -- not all, but much -- of the trouble with modern newspapers is actually the deep, suppurating rot in the ranks of politcal reporters: the belief that they're largely theater critics

Journey into Mystery #16 (1954). On the cover, a man is transforming into a vampire. The right side of his body is still a human wearing a suit, but the left has changed into a grotesque vampire, grey in color, with a bat-like wing, claws, a hoof, and a tail.

I usually wait until October to start doing horror and Halloween-themed posts but everything sucks, so screw it.

Dutch late night TV has its take

On this dynamic 2/3 splash page She-Hulk witnesses none other than Galactus descending to Earth in his oversized rocket ship. Note the detailed cityscape background, down to the kitty cats in the lower left window sand even the window blinds, just love it! She-Hulk's 'Holy Moebius' reaction is a nod to the two-issue Silver Surfer mini-series the master French artist "MOEBIUS" illustrated working with Stan Lee as writer. Interestingly enough, the two-issue Silver Surfer mini-series came out just a couple months earlier, cover date #1 12/88 and #2 1/89, while the Byrne She-Hulk story issue hit newsstands the last week of 1988 for Christmas. Byrne presumably drew this story 1-2 months earlier, while the Moebius series was first getting released and receiving artistic praise. One can only think the newly launched miniseries by the French legend was immediately well received in the US with Byrne acknowledging the legend in his work at the same time. Little did Byrne know at that time, both artists work on their respective series, most notably Moebius Silver Surfer mini-series would go down in history as one of the greatest artistic comic achievements of that era.
