There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

I made a free zine dedicated to the best place to watch pro wrestling, Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. It's 64 pages of photos I've taken from 2019-2023, & one page with a match guide. In between that first run and the last, I got serious about photos. I hope you dig it davidbrothers.itch.io/korakuen-hal...

My latest for Shelfdust, on The Ecstasies of Jimmy O: "Maybe the Silver Age is also about the pleasures of the flesh, and the many different things a body can do and feel within extravagantly escapist enclaves." #Superman #JimmyOlsen #LizardGunk shelfdust.com/2024/07/03/s...

Pointing again at my US Blue State Challenge. If you live in a "blue state", pick the red state you hate the most and the issue you care about the most and find a group in that state working on that issue and support them.

One thing I don’t understand is why, when people are outraged by some injustice or affront — like book bans — they don’t first look to see who is already tracking the issue, who’s already working on education + organization. “We need to do something!” People *are*. Find them. Help them.

strenuously object to these accusations of "subtext"

One of my favorite moments during our abbreviated publicity run for Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen was on a panel when someone asked @mattfraction.bsky.social what he thought old Jimmy stories were about. Matt made his eyes huge, leaned into the mic and moaned "myteenagebodyischangingwhatdoesitMEAN?"

PORTLAND COMICS ARTISTS: Would you like feedback on your work from an experienced professional? I'll be at @bkswpicspdx.bsky.social this Friday July 5th from 4-6 PM for First Friday Office Hours. We'll be outdoors at the tables next to the shop. How does this work? Details in the thread below.

You show me 6-8 pages of comics storytelling. I'll give you feedback based on my 30 years in comics. What works, what doesn't, how to tweak a panel for clarity or impact, tips for saving labor- the sort of advice your teacher at a comics class might offer.

If people don't understand how crucial local abortion funds are to folks actually getting their procedures or pills, here's the latest example: National Abortion Federation and Planned Parenthood are slashing patient grants from 50% to 30% of what callers need. Thirty percent.

More info from my local, the DC Abortion Fund, about why they're cutting back their hours and service area

I'm gonna be on some panels this year for small press shows. I really want to talk to YOUNG CREATORS who WANT TO DO THIS JOB and their PARENTS. Normies don't know how publishing works because all they know is how publishing works for stephen king. When they find shit out, they hate it.

WHAT! DOES! THE! PUBLISHER! DO? No, really. Do you know?

If you wonder why I keep doing the free monthly comics feedback thing at Books with Pictures, the answer is 1: I think that good teaching can make a big difference, & 2: I hate to think of broke students going thru what @colleendoran.bsky.social describes: colleendoran.substack.com/p/the-cost-o...

NGL, all I want is a work environment that encourages razzle-dazzle and the dream weave

Ten years ago today, July 2nd, 2014, we tweeted at an ice cream truck that they should park by our studio and give us free ice cream and they did!

There are two elements to the immunity decision that are particularly extreme in a way that many will miss: (1) motive is irrelevant and (2) immune acts are not just excluded from prosecution, they’re excluded from evidence. /1

I started my career reporting on how people were using the Internet in dictatorships, and if there's one BIG thing I learned from talking to a bunch of people who literally had served jail time for political blogging, it was "choose your battles wisely, and don't say dumb things in dumb places."

if there is one survival skill I would REALLY like everyone opposed to the fascist GOP to learn right now, it's "do not say things on the public internet that will provide authorities with useful pretenses for coming after you."
