Enemy Mine is 40!

In addition to being a sweet tale about peace and the importance of mutual understanding, Wolfgang Petersen (Das Boot,The NeverEnding Story)'s film, space re-reading of None but the Brave (1965) or Hell in the Pacific (1968), contains beautiful ship models.

Here is one example out of many that are celebrating. This is on a page I make a living off nostalgia content.

Also, this was the tamest mean response.

Normally a stamp on a comic does not discourage me from buying a comic, like Iron Man vol 1 issue 10. Today I found out this particular stamp gives a bit of history about this comic. It was not sold in the US, but the UK. I wonder how it got back in the US back in the 90s.

This gargantuan tome just arrived on my porch. Didn't even know there was a new collection. Loved writing JLD and playing in the supernatural corners of the DCU.

When it was first announced that he would buy, I vowed to stay. I had no idea anti-trans & Antisemitic stuff would soon fill my feed when he took over. What did it for me, was when Trump's account was reinstated.

At this point I unfollow those who promote their X accounts on other platforms.
I quit the former Twitter two years ago this week, and I am here to tell you that my online life got a lot better for having left it. In two years I've not been tempted to go back, and I haven't felt any penalty in either career or community for not being there. It's nice to be here and not there.

Thrilled to be drawing a story in Marvel’s BLACK PANTHER ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL #1, celebrating 60 years of T’Challa Feb 2026.

Teaming with writer Evan Narcisse on a Kasper Cole framing story as he searches for Wakanda’s exiled king.

Every few years I feel compelled to post about the best hotel hack ever, because every time I post about it, it turns out to be new to lots of folks …

Alita: Battle Angel 2?

James Cameron: “Robert Rodriguez and I have sworn a blood oath to do at least one more Alita movie. In fact, we’re thinking of an architecture that bridges to a third film, but we’ll be satisfied if we can make one more. And we’re making progress on that.”

Before this decade, I never hated the idea of AI. I never thought of it as a replacement for talent. But here we are, and it is not so much a tool as gimmick to replace talent.

Talent does not rely on an internet connection.
