"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"

"I think so, Brain, but what's Narflix?"

Credit where it's due: The DC Comics publishing division has truly killed it this year. From the creative energy and excitement being poured into the single issue comics to the compact comics reaching new audiences, I truly hope their efforts and accomplishments will be recognized and rewarded.

“Did you like watching Superman? Click here to read Superman comics on DC Infinite.”

I mean that should be table stakes at the very least.

It is 2025 and I am tired of new media conglomerates forming every few years.

gentle reminder that just because something you made didn't make a "best of" "year end" list doesn't mean you didn't make anything important in 2025

Feelings Don’t Matter: How the Ellison Era Is Transforming Paramount It’s a brand-new day at the legacy studio, where prestige films are out, testosterone-heavy tentpoles are in and Brett Ratner is back on the call sheet.

So, Larry Ellison likes to give leadership roles to sexual abusers like his idol, Trump? Not surprising, but still BS that this person owns Star Trek.

The reason we have a Netflix Dubbing Agreement in the first place is because the dubbing community rallied around the idea that we wanted to see more union dubbing projects.

I don't care who it is, how can you just look at the words "end prison rape protections" and think, "yeah, good idea".

I’ll be amazed if that Rush Hour 4 gets made 😅

Better Netflix than Paramount but best would be a functional antitrust regulating agency and lots of different companies that make cartoons and movies and shows and don’t hire sex pests.

This is probably the best outcome. Better than Paramount in its current state, and it ensures more studio competition. I had some pretty big concerns about the future of Netflix in general, and this probably helps put the company’s future on secure footing.

And you still, for some reason, cannot buy it digitally.

This comic made me kind of interested in Captain Atom, so that's a plus.

Ha!

The AI dub of Banana Fish was SO bad that Amazon removed it! 😅

It’s no easy feat to make Tommy Wiseau’s acting good by comparison!

Hey Folks,

As I clean up my office today, I happened across a bit of a flashback to my days on "The Batman" with my pals Jeff Matsuda and Jose Lopez.

I had great fun doing expression drawings for Jeff's take on Batgirl.

Cheers!

an ad for the new series “welcome to derry” with the tagline “go back to where IT all began“, except somehow, they highlighted the word “to“ instead of “it“

an ad for the new series “welcome to derry” with the tagline “go back to where IT all began“, except somehow, they highlighted the word “to“ instead of “it“

"oh, don't forget to highlight, in bright red, the two-letter word in the tagline! the two letter word that's kind of the whole point of this clever ad campaign! the two letter word that links this show to the horror movie of the same name!"

"no problem boss. i'm on it"
