Thank you to Little, Brown Ink and author Daniel Nayeri for trusting me to capture the first weird and wonderful tale in the series. This project is made possible by a magnificent team of magic makers. I hope you all enjoy!

I do respect the hell out of any comic book movie whose finale doesn't revolve around a punch contest. I love a punch contest as much as the next guy but sometimes it really can and should be resolved another way

After Boom's previous injection of life into Power Rangers I trust their ability to pick a solid team and make this what it could be! VR Troopers seems a tough nut to crack but I'm down
BOOM! Studios announced the first VR Troopers series in nearly 30 years will arrive in June 2025 from writer Mairghread Scott and artist Sebastian Piriz. @boom-studios.com

I have become hopelessly addicted to card games recently. One Piece, Magic, Marvel Champions, etc. Discovered #UltramanTCG in Seattle and now want nothing more than to stack cards and grunt that classic Ultraman "He-ah!"
I have a problem, I admit, but I'm all the way in.

Good rule for surviving the internet! Criticism is easy - the huge majority of these negative feedback machines rarely MAKE anything and when they try it is often quite bad.
Creation is hard. I'd rather make (or experience) a spectacular failure of a project than cynically profit from negativity.

One of the basic rules I have (especially with a youtube critic) is to click through to their main page, and if 80%+ of what they're doing is negative, I know they're an arsehole not worth listening to, a pointless grifter or both.
Couldn't agree more. The reason MST3K works (in small doses) is you're actually watching the film along with them, so it's like riffing with friends and you're experiencing the thing being mocked.
General mockery of "bad" art though is just tiresome.

My brother also enjoys comics and has given some very honest reviews, which I appreciate! My wife reads them as well. Lemme make a bunch more and see how true that remains! Everyone else I'm honestly unsure but it doesn't change much for me - it's not everyone's medium and that's fine.
Comic creators: Do people close to you read your comics? Do you care?

I'm not going to be the only person talking about how good Ultimate Spider-Man has been this year. The entire Ultimate line is crushing it, but Spider-Man is my personal standout. What a book this has been, a must read so far, so I am stupid excited to see what happens next. Start here, read it all!

Was cleaning up the collection and it's the perfect time of year for a "things I really enjoyed in 2024" thread. Going to post those here! Unless otherwise noted, the exact issues shown are semi-random - I found them in the box and selected them as representatives of the entire series.

I've been rewatching Friends recently and I heard
Ride wit Me by Nelly in one of the episodes and immediately aged another 15 years. I haven't been smacked in the face like that in a long time, it was painful.

I am now and will continue to be the madman shouting in the public square about this book! 12 issues and it's totally complete and is great. On the surface it's about a journey across the US to reclaim a soul but it's so much more than that. I never see anyone talk about it and that bums me out

Caught up with One For Sorrow from @mckelvie.bsky.social and after processing my intense jealousy that one person can do stunning art AND great story, I'm ready to tell everyone I know that they need to be reading it. #1 is extra length and perfect because it simply couldn't end at any other point.

I finally learned how to play Magic the Gathering last night and I fear I have awakened a monster which feeds on mana. There goes all of my disposable income 😭

Finally catching up on comics this week and just finished Vicarious from Ryan Parrott and Eleonora Carlini. I confess to being slightly skeptical going in, sci-fi and "future" stuff isn't always my thing, but I was wrong. Loved it. Those final pages are what comics are about my friend

One thing I'll say about #Smile2 is it is very confident. Most horror movies rely on surprise to get you spooked but this one will literally tell you you're about to see something creepy and it'll STILL work when they cut the camera to the creepy thing. And I think that goes kinda hard
