Y’all wouldn’t be so surprised by Kristen Chenoweth if you had paid attention to Studio 60 20 years ago, AND we’d have gotten more of that amazing television show…

One of my favorite collection items. Must have got it in a pack of cards at a flea market in the late 80s, sat in a box for years.

It’s always incredible to meet the creators of characters you spend so much time thinking (and teaching) about, and for them to wander #SDCC with you to find a CGC witness is even more unbelievable.
Thank you @littlebadger.bsky.social for capping off a wonderful con!

It’s been a great ride! Your panel today is my last scheduled item.
Any chance you’ll be around Artists Alley before it? I would love to have a CGC person nearby so I can get your autograph and get the book slabbed up for my row of Cap creators!

Saw #Superman for the third time tonight, and the 5:45 XD screening, on a Thursday, a week after its release, was still probably 3/4ths full, and there were 3 different rounds of applause.
This movie is so gosh darn fun.

If you’re open at 2 on Sat, a few teachers are going to be standing next to a poster about USofCap.
(And, full disclosure, I already packed comics to have you sign in case you were coming)
Will you be boothing or available for signing at all?

Saw #Superman for the second time, loved it even more, and I’m ready to go see it again. Can’t get over how amazing it is, but it’s what I hoped it would be when @jamesgunn.bsky.social was first attached.

Watching “Wakanda Forever” to hold me over until we get more #Ironheart episodes, and I had sorta forgotten how hard the opening scene hits, and the silence in the theater on opening night.

I’ve taught journalism for the last 15 of my 16 years as a high school English teacher, that’s absolutely not human writing.

What a perfect symbol, because it harms no human drivers, no human jobs (maybe makes a few?) and is specifically targeted to anger tech bros and their investors who profit off stolen labor.
