Everything about Czarface, from the music, branding, and merchandise, is all steeped in Silver-Age comic book lore. And it's not just for show.

You might want to wear shades when talking about the future of @idwpublishing.com (unless you're talking about their horror imprint), because the future looks pretty damn bright for the publisher!

The real surprise of our crossover podcast panel at NYCC was seeing my Riddler self come to life thanks to @badrm.bsky.social. I did not see that coming!
Never forget this image.

Cat's out of the bag (I don't think there ever was a bag). A fun episode with me and Harper and Hacker (attorneys at law) is coming out on @sktchd.bsky.social this week!
I'm really fighting the impulse to just grab all my comics and start pointing out all the little things I love about them after listening to the latest episode of Off Panel. (I believe it comes out tomorrow-ish for non-Patrons.) @davidharper.bsky.social @badrm.bsky.social @chacker41.bsky.social

In this week's feature on SKTCHD, I talked with Jordan Blanco, the founder of League of Comic Geeks, dozens of its users, comic creators, and others inside the industry to answer a big question:

How and why did League of Comic Geeks become maybe the largest comics-centric community online?
League of Comic Geeks is many things. A pull list manager. Collection tracking. A place to rate and review comics.

It might also be the largest pure comics community online.

Today on SKTCHD, I explored how LoCG became a giant, and a core part of comics for many of its (staggering number of) users.
League of Comic Geeks Has Found the Answers - SKTCHD
On the omnipresent website/app, and how it’s quietly become one of - if not the - biggest comics communities online.

I still get a small rush when I get to tell people about @hoopladigital.bsky.social , and how it's the best way to read digital comics for FREE.99
