Lurker. Inventing, mostly.
I know there are more rapturous final images of films that are more deserving…
… but this one ALWAYS gets me, I love it, and you can’t take it from me.

Can you even -imagine- a world that still had Phil Hartman? All my respect for the difficulty of anyone’s personal loss, but can you imagine how brilliant he would have been, comically, in his 60s and 70s?

I just turned to three random pages of King/Gerads’s Adam Strange and each page bad a speech bubble saying “Oh Adam”…

Our modern comic godfather is @timheidecker.bsky.social Cannot think of anyone who can even presume to contend. I have watched “An Evening With…” so many times that my wife now expects to walk in on me watching it. The entirety of OCatC should be shot into space for alien cultures to know us by.

@vor-bokor.bsky.social, your’s is a perspective on art I look to. Do you have anything new to say in general about Jack Kirby and/or his modern successor Tom Scioli? TS isn’t doing explicit Kirby homage anymore, but his work carries the torch of bold, simple storytelling of fabulous elasticity…

@vor-bokor.bsky.social,
You have keyed me into some great “foreign” comics over the years. I’ve never seen anyone mention this one, and I want to make sure you’ve seen it cuz the artwork SCREAMS Artyom! It’s so damn good, called “Brigada”. You ever read this one?

Some major news publication really needs to run a front page article that aggregates all the recent Republican politicians busted for CSAM and other sex crimes. The constant trickle of these stories does not hit home the pathology — that pipe needs to burst.

Today on youtube, I watched Norbit “with ads” and there was not a single ad break. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky.

Just watched Norbit cuz I heard Brian Wilson liked it. This is the face of a guy that just watched Norbit

Is it safe to say that DV's Dune films have already been memory-holed? It feels less a circumstance of their quality and more of the times, but I cannot for the life of me imagine that anyone will remember them better than Lynch's film, or even the books. The second film was practically an illusion.

Hi, fan here from Wasteland, segued to the sadly truncated Umbral, seen you here and there now... I -love- your art. One of my precepts about good art is that you can feel it being created as you observe it. Your illustration does that in spades. Hope to see more.

I've only been active on bluesky for about four days now and I'm already getting Twitter-style bots following me. This world we've made, awful. Its people, craven. Economies, janky. Experience, surreal. Hopes, subverted. Faith, tenuous.

Sorry "Amy". I'm not following you back.

Hiyo. We shared a couple of brief exchanges back on Twitter. I'm happy to see you here. I lost my cat yesterday, and somehow, your books were among the first I thought of as cathartic, and medicinal, to help me. Your work means a lot to me. Just hopping on to say that.
