You will be visited by three spirits.
The Sex Police from Sex Criminals (issue #2). The leader, Kegelface, is tossing aside a bullhorn and saying "We're coming."

If you see this, post a Spider-Man.

This label made me laugh
Skeet from Cheryl Lynn Eaton that says "Imagine if he dies during the shut down." It has a label applied to it that says "Spoilers in Replies ❕"

Delighted I stumbled upon a Lego store in the airport so I could pick these little guys up.
A bunch of Lego minifigs from the Across the Spider-Verse blind boxes. From left to right: a horse with a Spider-Man mask, Cowboy Spider-Man with a lasso, Miles Morales with his new costume and no mask, Peter B Parker in a pink bathrobe with his daughter May in a baby carrier, Gwen Stacy with her newish costume and no mask (with hair that is dyed pink at the tips), Pavitr Prabhakar holding a cup of Chai, and a cat with a Spider-Man mask. Peter B Parker pulled out in front of the group, with May on the ground beside him. Peter has stubble and his Spider-Man costume is under his pink bathrobe and white slippers. May is teeny tiny and has a Spider-Man mask partially over her head. It is extremely cute.

Prints (and a zine) today at #RCCC! Kudos to @chuwenjie.bsky.social, @keezyyoung.bsky.social and @cuntersthompson.bsky.social for being talented and cool 😎
The art print Ghost Rain from Kat Tsai. The top third is a ground level shot of Gwen Stacy on a rainy night, the bottom two thirds is a reflection of her as Spider-Woman (or Ghost Spider if you prefer) in pastel-ish purple and orange and pink light Two prints from Keezy Young: one is Agatha and the Coven, which is styled like a concert poster with the characters from Agatha All Along in their retro rock band attire from one of the trials. Text at the bottom says The Road, Friday October 31, Tickets $13 at the door. The second print is a huge collection of different sound effects from Keezy's comics. The Trash Humper zine from Chloe Maveal, subtitled The One About Obsession Consequences Heroin and Choons. It is fresh from her home printer, black and white ink on a folded piece of paper. The central image is a little gremliny thing being released from a cage, saying "Hiya".

Lovely moment during today's #Batfraction panel at #RCCC - @brianmbendis.bsky.social gifted @mattfraction.bsky.social the Batphone!
A photo of the panelists: DC Editor Rob Levin, Matt Fraction (with a full-face Halloween mask of classic Batman perched on top of his head), Becky Cloonan (with elf ears), and Brian Michael Bendis. Matt Fraction, surprised, holding a wicker picnic basket, while the other panelists look at him A slightly blurry photo of Matt Fraction holding the bright red Batphone. He has pulled the Batman mask over his face and is bowing toward Bendis in thanks

Extremely pleased with this new extremely serious ink brush drawing from Chip Zdarsky at #RCCC
Photograph of an ink brush drawing held on top of a pile of comics. It is a side facing portrait of "King" Daredevil. He has a stern look, full beard, and scarf wrapped around his neck. His cowl has long devil horns and is darkly shaded. "Radar sense" lines emanate from his head. On top of the cowl is a festive Santa hat. A speech balloon above his head says "i'm a ho ho ho."

Post a meme made by you
Doctor Manhattan sitting on a rock on Mars, alone, looking at the viewer pensively. The caption in classic meme Impact font says "I AM TIRED."

This reminded me of these annoying notifications, so I did some digging and found you can turn it off!

Great timeline synergy @gailsimone.bsky.social @neilaglet.bsky.social
Two Bluesky posts in sequence. The first is from Gail Simone that says "I'ma announce a new project tomorrproject tomorrow. :)". The second is a delightful picture from artist Lee Gatlin of The Rhino, where he has his mouth open and eyes wide, and the start of a word balloon above his head. It looks like he is saying the words from Gail's post.

Me after reading the Hickman/Checchetto Ultimate Spider-Man #1:
A lightly modified version of the "it was made for me" meme. A black and white Manga panel, which shows a short haired man with glasses, only wearing underwear, clinging onto the edge of a human-shaped hole. He anxiously shouts down at the crowd below him "Th-this is my ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN! It was made for me!"

Fortunately it seems like everyone learned from last year's storm and stayed home! Portland is not built for this... The ice can be pretty, though.
