Week 1: 35/365 read This week was starting to catch up on all things Absolute. I’d previously read the first few Absolute Flash before dropping off, so I reread those. Took a while to get going but once it did, it was dynamite. The WINNER OF THE WEEK, though…DC KO SUPERMAN vs. CAPTAIN ATOM #1!

the lost sun 1 campaign didn't fund. but that's okay, because we tweaked some things. lowered the goal. and we're gonna fund this dang comic. but the algorithm favors campaigns with lots of prelaunch followers. give the new campaign a follow, please www.kickstarter.com/projects/ada...

Read The New Gods #1 last night. If it was released a few weeks earlier, it probably would have swept awards lists for 2024. It's g-r-e-a-t. Bravo, @therightram.bsky.social and Evan Cagle.

A project I haven't really talked about is HEATHEN, a literary magazine featuring short stories rooted in horror and dark fantasy. This time around, this isn't a comic book. It's prose! And I'm not writing (at least not yet), I'm publishing, editing, and doing layout/design.
