The leadership he showed with this blizzard compared to Bloomberg back around ’12 or so is beyond substantial. You guys are so lucky to have him.

Four Color Comics History Cards: Fox Features Pack 1 The Blue Beetle returns to the control of Victor Foxβ€”and this is where things get crazy, as we document more old comics.

This is my 75th @kickstarter.com campaign over 11 years, my review of the Blue Beetle comics once they returned to Victor Fox’s control. This is a wacky one, folks! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dra...

I had to cancel my trip last minute (got really sick), but it may have worked out! Oh, and congrats on MASK! You’re writing all the cool books!

What happened to these two lovelies is terrible, and they’re lucky to have @adamlancegarcia.bsky.social and his lady foster them. Anyone in NYC looking for feline companionship?

I understand why Trumpland is terrified of him.

It was printed on BOTH formats. Do you need the digest version? I can check to see if I have more in stock right now.

What’s funny about Episode 1 is it held up way better than I’d have expected. When I think of it in terms of experimental film (as I do with II and III), it makes me consider them way differently than as a fan.

YES! I also have a lead on a bankruptcy case (related to Victor, possibly) that could prove interesting. The worst part is not having the bandwidth to pursue the Fox project right now. I’ve gathered seven large binders of material already.

I just ordered what may be the first criminal records discovered on crooked β€˜40s publisher Victor Fox. I’ve only been able to find civil to this point.

And this β€œmoving forward in time” with the characters was about a decade or less after the restart with Crisis.

Man, he was the best, and that was just from talking with him a few times. He also had a really dry sense of humor That you didn’t see coming.

Small headline: Sex found 9 out of 10 times.

In experiments carried on by Dr. A. F. Blakeslee and Sophia Satina at the Carnegie Insistlte [sic] Station for Experimental Evolution as part of research oon sex problems of the National Research Council, it has been found possible to get the sex directly more than nine times out of ten by the Manilov test.
It was explained today that the test could be used to determine the sex of the fungi of bread molds, which are so simple and similar in structure that it has never hitherto been possible to tell which was male and female.

Our first ultrasound was the day after the disastrous Clinton/Trump election. I can’t wait to be a father without that orange menace looming over everything.

Sadly, and with no pretense intended, I’m probably the most β€œfamous” person a school next to a cow field has gotten so far.

Doesn’t seem wise to piss off the folks who could eventually impeach her.
