Friends in the DMV area, come out to @thirdeyecomics.bsky.social this Friday for @readtinyonion.bsky.social’s Exquisite Corpses HALLOWEEN Tour stop! I will be hosting the event and chatting with @jamesthefourth.bsky.social and more!

For a long time, I was a “Put Joker on the shelf” person. But I realize Joker should never be on a shelf. He should only be given to writers and artists who take him to the extremes of any direction. King and Gerads “The Winning Card” is pure Joker. @mitchgerads.bsky.social draws Joker as horror.

I haven’t been posting it here much but I’ve been reading every appearance of the Joker in a completely whimsy fueled reading order. Decided as a huge clown guy, it was time. Turns out thought that it was meant to be.

I need more time to gather my thoughts for a review of #OneBattleAfterAnother, but I can say with absolute certainty that it is the best film of the year. PTA's characters are unmatched in film. Sean Penn is razor sharp, shifting from terrifying to the most pathetic man alive.

I have tried all of the the Angry Orchard thriller pack in order to try the Jason Universe tie in. Each and every one tastes like corn syrup, vinegar, and fruit flavoring. I am going to drink all of them in the hopes I get to meet Jason though.

I laughed so hard that I couldn’t breathe many times. Instant classic comedy. If I ever had to go to war, I’d keep a photo of Paul Walter Hauser in my wallet so I remember what I was fighting for. #NakedGun

I can’t stop thinking about what Absolute Walter would look like from an Absolute Nice House on the Lake because of book club.

I’ve lived in the pages and panels of @DCOfficial since I can remember. #Superman  was the first time I felt like I saw it in live action for real. It’s so unafraid to lean into what makes DC so magical. Superman hasn’t soared high like this in a long time. #LookUp

Leave it to Dave to get in a really sad and moving character moment between brothers in a Shark Week issue. There has always been something special about how Dave approaches superheroes and it’s the heart on the sleeve aspect. It’s who he is as a person but you see it in his philosophy of heroes.

I think Giovanni from Pokemon opened a door to my exact taste in villain and person from a very young age. I don't think it's a door I will ever be able to close.

The survey for the June Comic Book Club is out! All the books this month are either from LGBTQIA+ teams or feature queer stories. Please share so everyone can join us to discuss the book that's been voted on in a safe space dedicated to talking comics for all people!

I saw this so close today that it cured my depression

I’m constantly changing up my desk. These are my new additions.

For this month’s Comic Book Club, we want to focus on a comic that deals with LGBTQIA+ themes or one that was written by a queer creative team! It would be a huge help if you’d tell me your favorites in the replies so I can make a list of potential books for everyone to choose from #Pride

What a fucking loser

Last night, I was explaining to the comic book club how @jamesthefourth.bsky.social and @jorgejimenezart.bsky.social created some of the coolest looking and most interesting character to come through a Batman book since Professor Pyg. I wish we got to see them more but gosh darn what a cornucopia!
