A reminder that while this is a comic book account, comic books are absolutely political because they ALWAYS have been.

@gregrucka.com wait wait wait. What does that mean for (spoiler) at the end of “Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League”?!

I really hope you and @nicolascottart.bsky.social team up again. Loved this series.

@gregrucka.com a friend of mine told me to read this. I said one issue. As you can see, I’m past that.
This is a fantastic issue with even better commentary.

One NYE, I was heartbroken from divorce. A friend refused to let me be a sad sack and hauled me to a club. I met a girl. She gave me her number on a torn off cigarette package.

20 years later, I still have the cigarette package. And I still have the girl. Happy "Day We Met" Anniversary, Miyuki.

I've seen people say Blusky is an echo chamber.

An "Echo chamber" is when you put yourself in circumstances where you aren't presented with new or divergent ideas.

Avoiding spaces where such ideas are presented exclusively in toxic ways isn't an echo chamber-

It's self care.

It’s cliche, but Wiccan and Hulkling. They argue and debate, but there’s always love.

Jitter and Calico
Wolverine and Hercules (X-Treme X-Men)
Harley and Poison Ivy

What is your favorite lgbtq character relationship at DC or Marvel right now?

I think the chairman of 3K is Krakoa Era Hank McCoy. We never saw a dead body after the “Wolverine: Beast agenda” storyline

This year I’ve written around 500 articles (most likely more), read over 1500 comic books, interviewed people from “Bel-Air” “Peacemaker” and “Mayor of Kingstown” (the latter in the last four months), and this is the career that isn’t my full time job.
