I've been dying for ages to see what couture Escapade aka Shela Sexton would wear to the mutants' glamorous Hellfire Gala. Now she's getting a beautiful makeover courtesy of artist Luciano Vecchio for the Marvel Move app which is doing an "X-Men Pride Special" audio storyline.

Serious question: is it wrong to take all of these #doctorwho novels from a little free library? (I donate on average a dozen books a month to LFLs, but don't want to be greedy.)

So incredibly honored and thrilled that PROMISES STRONGER THAN DARKNESS is a finalist for the 2024 Locus Award for best young adult novel. This whole ballot is utterly incredible. All three books in the Unstoppable trilogy are officially Lodestar *and* Locus Awards nominees! πŸš€βœ¨

Personally I think there's too much discourse about Superman's red undies and not enough talk about the fact that Failsafe (alt-universe robot Batman) has a smiley-face crotch.

I just caught up on the "stuck in the woods with a bear or a man" discourse, and I wanted to say, "What about Bearantula???" Because I spent way too much time coming up with Bearantula mythos back in the day (gizmodo.com/syfys-next-h...) But the site is so borked you can't even see the art I made!

Someone on Threads was like, "Hey, they lost their whole planet." I responded, "Only in the Kelvin timeline," but I wrote "Only in the Kevin timeline" by mistake. Now I'm wondering what the Kevin timeline of #StarTrek would be.

Okay so at one point, Judge Dredd meets Judge Death, who is a supernatural undead figure who goes around spreading decay everywhere. Judge Death's catch phrase is "Gaze Into The Face of Death." He says this over and over... ...until he meets Judge Dredd, who replies:

Just a heads up: voting for the Hugo Awards is now open! We've decided to make all three books in the Unstoppable trilogy available in the Hugo voters packet. So if you haven't gotten to these books yet, and you want to read about queer chosen family battling fascism in space, here's your chance!

I really did not expect to be looking at a comic book and crying today. Escapade stars in the latest issue of Marvel Voices Infinity, written by the incredible @meakoopa.bsky.social with art by Cara McGee, colors by Carlos Lopez and lettering by Travis Lanham. I loved this so much, it was perfect.
