The "R.R." in J.R.R. Tolkien stands for "Ruff Ryder". Same as George R.R. Martin, weird enough. He/Him

Welcome Back Frank was my introduction to the character, so I did imprint on the Steve Dillon version of the character, but Return to Big Nothing was the first Zeck one I read.

Every punk band got that one bassist who looks like the first zombie in NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD

Yeah, I got to see two real good productions of it, so it remains my favorite.

Yes definitely if you feel off or down check your energy and hydration levels, but consider also the healing power of "loud music you know all the words to"

Are they leaning harder into the freak nastiness of part 3?

They should do more wrestling games with rappers.

But I assume not the sheer amount of time it takes.

On the one hand, I am glad that your creative energies are focused on comics, a thing I can experience from down here.

But dang it, there just ain't nothing like live theater.

Okay, assuming you had all the free time you wanted, if you were going to direct a Shakespeare, which one would you pick?

Can you at least power wash the space jail? It’s pretty dirty in here.

That just means he doesn’t want it hard enough. Maybe he should let someone else have a turn.

Honestly? Actual baseball names aren't that much more of a stretch when you got Coco Crisp and Rollie Fingers.

I don't think that framing video game discussions in terms of "Japanese" and "Western" is very useful given the amount of back and forth influence over the decades. That being said, Japan is absolutely kicking everyone else's ass when it comes to games that have a dog with a sword in its mouth.

Other baseball names:

Boog Powell
Goose Gossage
Buster Posey
Mookie Betts

COLUMBO: I gotta say, my wife, she just loves your work. She says no one is as good as using a simple follow up question to get someone to reveal themselves as you.

And technically she's known about this one since Heroes Con, but has kept silent about it.

As per today's Kyle Chandler News Update, I was reminded of years ago when I'm pretty sure I was talking to @franzferdinand2.bsky.social about K-Chan and subsequently drew Early Edition fanart.
