Thank you to everyone at Midwest Toy and Comic Fest in Bloomington for a wonderful time this weekend. Seeing old friends and making new friends is always the best part of these conventions and this was no exception.

After working with him for a year on a project, it was awesome being in the same room (and not a Zoom call) as my pal, Final Destination creator/screenwriter Jeffrey Reddick.

@midwesttoycomicfst.bsky.social is a blast so far! We’ll be there tomorrow from 10:00am to 4:00pm!

This Sat & Sun, I’ll be in Bloomington IL at the Midwest Toy and Comic Fest. Yep, I’ll have some terrific graphic novels, but I’ll also have some sweet Tales for a Halloween Night Vol. 11 buttons as well. If you want to go, you can get tickets here: www.midwesttoycomicfest.com/s-projects-s...

Really hope we’re at the point where more and more people begin to see how fragile and deceitful and desperate this administration is, how it’s engaging in manipulation and lies in a desperate effort to drum up support and distract from its weaknesses and failures. This is all so pathetic.

For me, David Byrne’s solo music is so ebullient and hopeful that I can always depend on it to chase the clouds away as soon as the needle kisses the wax. His new record β€œWho Is The Sky” is no exception.

From the same medical cosplayer who told us that windmills cause cancer and injecting disinfectant eliminates Covid comes a brand new litany of nonsense that spits in the face of science. So I wrote a haiku about it:

Autistic children
Deserve our love and support
Not cheap scare tactics

Excited to be part of my favorite comic convention, Slicexpo! It’s happening Saturday 10/8 at The Sheldon. It’s the most fun, most inclusive con for comics, zines, and all sorts of fun print-related shenanigans!

Usually swans mate for life but ours just sat us down and broke the news: they are conscious uncoupling.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

Today is Batman Day, so I’m posting this picture of my son with the Dark Knight himself. This is from a few years ago, and he is now taller than the Batman in this photo :-) #BatmanDay #batman
