found a facsimile edition and finally read in the original colors, still not my favorite Batman story and far from my favorite Moore, but few writers accomplish in an entire run what Moore does in one issue.

if any of the people who made theee models or even like 10% more of the general public knew anything about programmer ethics we wouldn’t have to deal with obviously fake shit like this

the franchise might be the best showcase of the relationship between fascism and nostalgia. neck and neck with Star Wars in that department

apotheosis of the gig economy. burning endless amounts of venture capital to create enough of a barrier for the end consumer to lose any sense of empathy for service workers while outsourcing the work to someone that can be paid slave wages. every time.

I've been deep in the sir wetness rabbit hole for a minute. the video descriptions paint a really interesting picture of who's behind all of those.

text placement and lines of motion, primarily from the chain, glide the eye across the page. there’s a tangible momentum with every shift in direction. it’s a shame the story sucks

knightfall is an underwhelming slog but at least you get the occasional masterfully composed page

between the latest issue of Assorted Crisis Events and the (many) ongoing gimmicks in Absolute Martian Manhunter, it's really exciting how Deniz Camp and his artists engage with the comic as a physical, tactile object. The exact types of innovation that an age of e-reading desperately needed.

Mignola is such a master of the medium and I'm kicking myself for putting this series off for so long. Bought all volumes as a box set, digging into the rest of them shortly.
