I, meanwhile, would hate it if Halloween went on for longer than usual
The Scarecrow is so twisted and messed up that Halloween is normal to him

I could convince Grant Morrison to cut it out with the AI shit. Get me in a room with them; twenty minutes tops

Lol, fuck off Grant

I liked, but didn't love One Battle After Another. To sort out my feelings, I took to the substack and wrote a slightly skeptical piece about the film, its style, its politics surrounding race, and how it also contains my fave sequence of the year:

Say...Marty doesn't look quite right! Activate your Martian Vision by concentrating on the + in the center of his eye. Don't even blink if you can! After about 20 seconds, he should be back to his normal, healthy glow.

to a lot of people a good character design is one you want to fuck or buy a figurine of or wear on a t-shirt. and good character writing is when you want to befriend or date or be a character.
this is the dividing waters in fandom rn bc good writing to me is when you go all in on this but we currently exist in a heavily marketed corporate landscape that has associated stanning with consumer identity so whenever a character does smth fucked ppl try to pretend it actually didnt happen

To me Rowling exists entirely outside of the “should we support/work with artists with troubling views?” debate. She doesn’t just *think* her opinions, she doesn’t just *say* them, she’s a relentless 24-7 activist whose whole mission in life is terrorizing trans people.
there's also people claiming we trans people are "holding allies to a purity test" here and to be clear:

"Don't participate in stuff that actively funds the campaign to exterminate us" is a pretty fucking low bar. One might say it's not even "allyship," it's just decency.
Also, Lithgow is trying to muddy the waters by giving interviews where he pretends that the controversy here is that he's American, not that he's signing off on transphobia.

the banning of tiktok is another painful reminder to buy physical copies of your media. i have dozens of dvds of an ai voice reading reddit comments over unrelated minecraft footage.

Frankly I have a pretty bad recency bias when it comes to comics; I should be dipping into more old stuff
Are there any comics published in the last 10 years that have joined your personal pantheon of greatest comic books of all time?

The story moved on at the right time but I could have read Dick and Damian as Batman and Robin forever

In retrospect the reason I dropped Immortal Thor after about 6 issues despite loving Immortal Hulk is Marvel's insistence on using a lettering style for all the Asgardians' dialogue that belongs in a Shrek 3 background sight gag about a Used Horse Dealer-Shippe

Issue 2 Harv blasts him in the chest with a .45, says "weird that it happened twice, huh?" and we can all move it along
Preview from Batman:Hush Sequel but Jeph Loeb, Jim Lee and Scott Williams!

It shows all the characters we will see in this 6 issue arc!
