Look at all the incredible variety in the line work! Such a beautiful combination of precise, clean details in the face and quick strokes on her hair. I love the thick weights on her head and sweater.

Bob Le Flambuer (1956)

Pal around 50’s Montmarte (in stunning BW) with the aging tough, Bob the Gambler, and before you know it you’re in the middle of a Parker novel, planning a casino heist. Melville takes his time building the tension with engaging real-time sequences.

Name a film that cheers you up.

First time viewing last night of The Long Kiss Goodnight.

Loved it and I think it might be the MOST Shane Black film of Shane Black films.

Sam Jackson is just a treat and possibly clinched the best live action performance of a Warner Brothers cartoon character ever.

This baby seems just steeped in pulp noir. That hand and pistol looks like it came right off a George Rosen Shadow cover!

I’m a big fan of Michael Curtiz and dig Powell when he gets to be slick, so I’m definitely adding this to my watch list.

An excellent haul from a recent trip to the @fantagraphics.bsky.social store in Seattle. It's always a pleasure to dig through the stacks and see tons of interesting and inspiring stuff. I wholeheartedly recommend any and all of these books I picked up.

Me and my comfort book - whenever I can’t decide what to read, Molly and Case are always there.

Eagle cover is by Jose Ortiz. Yet another incredible 70's era Spanish draughtsman I was unaware of!

The design legends @houseindustries.bsky.social have a clothing line called House 33 which had tons of cool design riffs on the number.

I always loved the core logo with the scimitar, and those cobras are just killer.

Got to see the legendary Kraftwerk at Bass Concert Hall in ATX last night. An incredible experience and a joy to allow the minimal yet massive sound just wash over you.

I was lucky enough to see them at Coachella in 2008, which is one of my top shows of all time.

This is my first introduction to Rose O'Neill and her incredible work and amazing life story!

Darwyn Cooke’s adaptations of Richard Stark’s Parker series are incredible. I always take the opportunity to suggest both the comics and the original novels.

I watched Godzilla vs. Hedorah for the first time this past week and a simple redub would pretty much be that movie. With the monster gorging itself on the mental pollution and anger, while spreading acidic filth wherever it goes. It’s some dark stuff.

That’s the sweet Bill Sienkiewicz Shadow! Approved! 👍

@humanoids.com has kept Freddy Lombard and Young Albert in wide release digitally and from what I see online, has Bob Fish coming out in English October this year.

I would love to see "Chaland Oeuvres Vol. 1" along with "Yves Chaland: Une Vie en Dessins" translated even just for digital.
