“I have to carve the gargoyles, because I can carve nothing else; I leave to others the angels and the arches and the spires.”

Once I was a prolific doodler. Now I do this.

ZERO tolerance for leveraging (or encouraging) AI or fascism.

The eye thing is what kept me watching until the (wretched, hateful) ending.

But! For the fans:

When I think about this, I find it useful to make the distinction between IP and narrative. Disney won't have the Avengers fight 2025's real-world fascists. But that doesn't mean the characters are not antifascist. The stories featuring the Avengers speak (for better or worse) for themselves.

The whole thing is going to read like "It was great to see you HILLARIE CLINTEN. I loved hanging out with you at HILLARIE CLENTON tower. Say hello to your daughter CELSEE CLITEN and your three sons CHELSE CLINTEN."

additionally why would anyone get bent out of shape by a rhode islander when Umberto Eco BEEN had you covered with a clear 14 point checklist from his '95 Ur-Fascism essay
1. The cult of tradition. "One has only to look at the syllabus of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers. The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements." 2. The rejection of modernism. "The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, is seen as the beginning of modern depravity. In this sense Ur-Fascism can be defined as irrationalism." 3. The cult of action for action's sake. "Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation." 4. Disagreement is treason. "The critical spirit makes distinctions, and to distinguish is a sign of modernism. In modern culture the scientific community praises disagreement as a way to improve knowledge." 5. Fear of difference. "The first appeal of a fascist or prematurely fascist movement is an appeal against the intruders. Thus Ur-Fascism is racist by definition." 6. Appeal to social frustration. "One of the most typical features of the historical fascism was the appeal to a frustrated middle class, a class suffering from an economic crisis or feelings of political humiliation, and frightened by the pressure of lower social groups." 7. The obsession with a plot. "The followers must feel besieged. The easiest way to solve the plot is the appeal to xenophobia." 8. The enemy is both strong and weak. "By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak." 9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. "For Ur-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle." 0. Contempt for the weak. "Elitism is a typical aspect of any reactionary ideology." 11. Everybody is educated to become a hero. "In Ur-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm. This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death." 12. Machismo and weaponry. "Machismo implies both disdain for women and intolerance and condemnation of nonstandard sexual habits, from chastity t…

Disability is, as ever, the only minority that anyone can join at any time, and which everyone will join, if they're lucky enough to live that long.

If you're a fan of the artist, the eagerly awaited Jim Aparo book from TwoMorrows is now available for pre-order!

twomorrows.com/index.php?ma...
176-page FULL-COLOR HARDCOVER - by Eric Nolen-Weathington & Jim Amash For a generation of comic-book readers, Jim Aparo is considered the greatest Batman artist of them all. Aparo—with his strong, dynamic style, well-grounded in realism—together with Batman made a team worthy of the title, The Brave and the Bold. But before that team-up book, he made a name for himself on such series as Aquaman, the controversial “Spectre,” and the mysterious Phantom Stranger, and is considered by many to be the definitive artist for each. Now, the team of Jim Amash and Eric Nolen-Weathington (editors of Matt Baker: The Art of Glamour; Carmine Infantino: Penciler, Publisher, Provocateur; and Sal Buscema: Comics’ Fast and Furious Artist) turn the Bat Signal on the life and work of one of comics’ finest! From his time in the world of advertising art, at Charlton Comics on Nightshade and The Phantom, through the heyday of the ’70s, and beyond the death of Robin, Aparo’s career is finally given the attention it so richly deserves. The book is lavishly illustrated with Aparo’s work, including many rare and previously-unpublished pieces. Includes an introduction by award-winning artist Alan Davis, and a new Aparo cover inked by Mike DeCarlo!
