From the Show The Odd Couple. Roy Clark Guitar Wizard

On this week's @fullmanga.bsky.social, our podcast on Hitoshi Iwaaki's series PARASYTE, @patokon.bsky.social mentioned guitarist Roy Clark, and how amazing his playing was. Here's a good example!

“Here let me chop off all the ropes and moorings with my hatchet so you can hug us better.”

Pretty happy with this and basically all the stuff I’ve made like this that initially came to me in a dream. The dream goblins have been generous to me this year.
I’ve never seen the 90s cartoon, but knew the 80s comic as it was a parody of Frank Miller’s Daredevil

The Howling (1981)
The Wolf Man (1941)
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Frankenstein (1931)

In the midst of enjoying the Female Prisoner Scorpion series with KAJI Meiko, I decided to check out Mermaid Legend (1984) also based on a gekiga comic. What a climax! Man, I thought Battle Royale was ultra-violent…

Oooohhhhh yesss. It’s never leaving my memory. Especially the ‘squeeeeeeze’ scene.

I like the almost Basil Gogol style of art & lighting shown in the illustration.

He was also into Peach.

Cheers, mate.

Watching Lost World: JP2 and wondering when Universal is going to finally release these fine flicks.

I was bad at Tweetering, but had my accounts algos working okay until the muskrat effed it all up. I’m still bad at bskying in that I can’t quite get it to be as useful or fun as I’d like.
If anyone happens to know some awesome accounts or lists I should follow here and put into a list lemme know.

At first glance, I thought, “Why are Norman and Lamb fighting over a gothic fantasy collection?”

Of course, this issue featured #Parasyte chapter 13, "Absent Tears", which we discussed on the latest episode of our show.

My newest piece. The one-horned oni, The Onicorn.

I'm having a blast talking about one of my favorite #manga of all time, #PARASYTE with Tim Young (@deconcomics.bsky.social)

This is why there are so many smart phones with cracked screens.

Thanks for answering!

One of my favorite series to come out in the last two decades. I used to read chapters of it out loud in Japanese to my daughter's fifth grade class. Quick Q for you @evandorkin.bsky.social , what's one of your favorite comic book sound effects?

" On April 5th, a 54% tariff goes into effect on a wide range of goods imported from China. For those of us who create boardgames, this is not just a policy change. It's a seismic shift. At Steve Jackson Games, we are actively assessing what this means for our products, our pricing, and our future plans. We do know that we can't absorb this kind of cost increase without raising prices. We've done our best over the past few years to shield players and retailers from the full brunt of rising freight costs and other increases, but this new tax changes the equation entirely. Here are the numbers: A product we might have manufactured in China for $3.00 last year could now cost $4.62 before we even ship it across the ocean. Add freight, warehousing, fulfillment, and distribution margins, and that once-$25 game quickly becomes a $40 product. That's not a luxury upcharge; it's survival math. Some people ask, "Why not manufacture in the U.S.?" I wish we could. But the infrastructure to support full-scale boardgame production – specialty dice making, die-cutting, custom plastic and wood components – doesn't meaningfully exist here yet. I've gotten quotes. I've talked to factories. Even when the willingness is there, the equipment, labor, and timelines simply aren't."

Steve Jackson Games posted this to their blog and the post is getting so many hits their site is effectively crashed but the point is worth repeating

Thank you!

@jeffsmithsbone.bsky.social I have a Q that I've been asking comic creators for a while now, if that's ok? What's your favorite comic book sound effect?
