A reintroduction, for the new people. Hello, gang. I'm Ian! I've been podcasting about comic books for about 20 years, originally for @comictiming.bsky.social, then for Comic Geek Speak for 6 years, now back at Comic Timing. I'm a lifelong New Yorker, appreciate pizza of all kinds, and the Yankees.
I would like to thank all of you for making my Jon Bon Jovi post from last night my most successful Bluesky post to date. It's the little things that make your day.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”
