Finally. It's so rare that a large company or corporation will "right a wrong" for a positive reason or when they don't have to have to, so kudos to DC for finally letting this see print Especially as Rick Veitch said, to editorial, @mariejavins.bsky.social & Alex Galer for pushing it over the line.
My longtime (near lifelong) pal Rick Veitch announced this earlier today, OK for me to share now, here, with you.
It's real. It's happening. At long last.

My birthday a couple of days ago. Received this lovely tome as a pressie. Neal Adams was the 1st pro I ever met at a signing he did at Forbidden Planet in London in '79. Growing up I didn't attend cons. I queued up for 2 hours. To young me it was like meeting God. Awestruck. He was a real gent.

Such bs from the BBC. You can understand people's concerns but the media including the BBC are helping to platform the main right wing political party and normalise racist attitudes around this subject. They will help get Reform UK elected to govt. at this rate.

An oldie but still relevant.
If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

If I was a US citizen I would be very pissed with successive administrations telling me that they can't afford to pay for free medical care while sending over 300 billion dollars in aid and weapons over the years to a wealthy country that * does* have free health care for its people.

Don't normally post political stuff, but given last night's events: Once again, Israel is dragging the US and the world into a needless conflict. Isr. has attacked 7 countries in the last 5 years. All with help from the US & my own UK governments. They and Saudi Arabia are cut from the self cloth.

Very rarely post on here, happy just to reply. Seeing this made me post. Wtf is this and why?? Are they completely creatively bankrupt? Must have paid Grant Morrison a heap to come back and write one of these . I know the obvious answer to why is money, but still! Give me strength *facepalm*

Met him by chance in a London comic shop just before Sandman out. There was something about him I really didn't like. Didn't know what. 30+ years later, never imagined something this bad. Even worse is that there has been so little coverage in the comic press. Partly 'cos of poor Ed Piskor's fate?
As I get older I realize that putting too much stock into real people as “heroes” or “good guys” is folly but this is so genuinely upsetting and disheartening. I feel so bad for his targets. Absolutely monstrous.
