The million-selling comic is back for a big anniversary! But it's bigger now than ever - huge in fact! As this oversized hardcover of Judgement on Gotham (w/ special edition) is the same size as the Horned God anniversary edition which sold out its first on the week of release.

COLUMBO: My wife, she loves your games. The sunken ghost ship level. It’s her favourite

MARIO: Thank-a you!

C: Just one more thing. Now you say your girlfriend, the Princess, was kidnapped by Bowser, your enemy. And yet you were go-karting with him this morning?

M: What’s-a your point, Detective?

Bluetoothing music to the car stereo.
Earphones: I like it when we get up close and personal. I'm going to play your music.
Me: No! Now I have to switch to the radio and listen to some depressing news.

My phone: Enjoying listening to music?

Me: Yes. Please don’t change anything.

Phone: Inexplicably connect to the headphones in your bag and play music through them, even though they aren’t on your head? Got it, boss!

My statement about leaving Epstein island with all of my children is raising a lot of questions answered in my statement about leaving Epstein island with all of my children.
That last sentence. I mean, you'd hope so.

I totally believe that Elon Musk will build a city on the moon in ten years, just after he completes his promise of landing on Mars by 2021.

Writers! Does anyone have a good recommendation for a tiny word processor? Like something you can fold up fit in your pocket? Does such a thing exist?

Thank you 🙏🏻

So, politics isn’t for you? Maybe it should be.

Fascism doesn’t arrive overnight. It creeps in through apathy, silence, and the idea that “this stuff doesn’t affect me.” Graphic novels have always been a frontline medium; cheap, urgent, emotional, and impossible to ignore.

So let me get this straight. Our leader might resign because of revelations from the Epstein files that he isn’t even mentioned in, but the US leader is mentioned THOUSANDS of times and the American political system is more interested in someone singing at a sports game?
