The PaleyFest Pluribus panel I moderated is now up on YouTube. (My favorite part comes around the 33-minute mark, where Rhea Seehorn off the cuff expertly dissects an aspect of Carol she hadn't even thought about before.)

Another Trek movie project!
With the Paramount regime change, it could be serious this time... Or not 🖖

ive been thinking about this since I walked around AnimeExpo, and walking around Lightbox really cemented it for me:

Frank Lloyd Wright's historic Ennis House has shown up in plenty of films but for me the Los Feliz marvel of Mayan Revival architecture will always be the home of Neville Sinclair in THE ROCKETEER (1991).

Without Noel Sickles, there's no Milt Caniff, no Alex Toth, no Frank Robbins. He's the source for a huge slice of how comics are drawn.
