Evanier tells the story of that, sadly in his obituary for Tom. Always a treat to see a Tom Palmer pencil job - as over these layouts by the unusual combo of Joe Barney & Larry Hama - such a wonderful artist and painter. (Smooth adaptation by @jmdematteis.bsky.social of an under-appreciated film.)

#DonDeLillo has been quoted at 25/1. The greatest living novelist following the death of Martin Amis, I would love to see his genius acknowledged with a #NobelPrize.

Might be helpful to #ThomasPynchon that the #NobelPrize committee probably have not completed reading #Gravity'sRainbow. Got through my copy - the ol' ball and chain - a couple times while hating every page, every rotten sentence of the turgid tripe. And subsequent novels only got worse.

Lot of people posting this picture today, on the 44th anniversary of the first ever gig by #TheSmiths at the Ritz Ballroom. This is from their second gig, at Manhattan. Dale Hibbert has already been replaced by Andy Rourke on bass guitar. And go-go dancer #JamesMaker wore a suit at the Ritz.

Love this Christopher Sprouse cover to the Image reprint of Ocean. #WarrenEllis Has a similar eleganct simplicity to this old #AlexToth cover, a stone cold classic.

Sorry you have fallen victim to an irresponsible dog owner. Was reading your story about a savage biting incident, with a tremendously energetic art job, pencils and inks. You made the corner box! There is an awful lot of your old teacher in that first page, Joe would have been very proud.

Winching Love and the Loveless, volume seven, up onto the lectern as The Golden Virgin crashes to the floor. Profoundly moved by volume six and its devastating ending. #AChronicleOfAncientSunlight #HenryWilliamson

Reminds me I must have another read of The Cook by the mysterious Harry Kressing, with its lovely Milton Glaser cover. If you've been reading Arthur Machen perhaps consider The Great When by #AlanMoore; a book magicked up out of Machen's fictional universe and his short story N.

This is just a bizarre take! We loved #MiracleLegion - their gig at the Hacienda is an all-time top ten - but nobody ever imagined that REM stole their sound, that turns logic and the cosmic timestream upside-down.

This spot seems now to be the most violent location in #Manchester. I used to work in the building opposite, this was my view from the desk. Would have a pint in that pub, where #Morrissey went cruising with #JamesMaker, after work, though colleagues warned me: "Don't go in there, everybody's gay!"

I've always loved that Moon Knight page by Bill, the best in the business! He used a similar action dynamic in this page from Big Numbers with #AlanMoore.

#RichardBradford was a lovely mover, as McGill he always cut a dash on the dancefloor. A superb natural athlete, he went to college on a football scholarship; until injury forced a transition to baseball. #ManInASuitcase

The last half-decent episode of #TheSimpsons was in Season 8, Homer's Enemy, with Frank 'Grimey' Grimes. Thirty-one (31!) years ago. Series 38 premieres this weekend, guest-starring - for maximum cringe - Emma Thompson. How many sharks can this mouldy franchise jump before they shut it down?

This Jimmy Dean documentary is terrible, so fraught and hysterical, worse that #Morrissey's book. No wonder they threw him off the family plot in Fairmont, Indiana.

As Nigel sings in the #HalfManHalfBiscuit classic Knobheads on Quiz Shows: "Born too late for the First World War The Siege of Troy was long before my time." A certain Beastly quizzer recently described ½M½B as a parody band; Mark, they are so much more than that.

Used to tune in just to see the host silhouetted against the connecting wall; if not for her hilarious comedy bits. My brother worked with her and was scandalised by her rudeness, only time I ever heard him say 'see you next Tuesday.' And her brother - a notorious feral sewer rat and hooligan.

Great to see #FrankMiller looking well and sprightly, in tux and tennis shoes. Frank belongs there as a filmmaker, he is the Charles Laughton of his era. The Spirit will one day be revaluated and recognised as a visually stunning curio, just like Night of the Hunter.

So what have we learned, sadder and wiser as we are? If you like shit music you will ultimately find your hero is a mediocrity and a creep. Riding somebody's coat tails is the ideal position for stabbing them in the back. Never trust a rapper.

#BatmanDay again is it? Virtuoso design and draughtsmanship by Trevor Von Eeden, from the Annual he did with Mike W Barr. Trevor is a maverick genius who very sadly made himself problematical and impossible to work with. Luscious colours by Lynn Varley, which is a whole other story!

Not a bad return on the old cellos for #JohnnyFuckingMarr, though he may regret letting go of that beautiful Rickenbacker, even for £358,400. When Johnny first met #Morrissey, he pronounced 'guitar' with a glottal stop.

To be fair they did it with #Morrissey on pop quiz; gave him - famously the president of the #NewYorkDolls fan club - questions about the New York Dolls.

Pointless got their High Brow and Low Brow questions completely the wrong way around. Amazing and sinister how far the BBC will bend over backwards to coddle their celebrity guests and conceal their profound ignorance.

Looks like she's doing a pretty good job. The second hardest job in bike maintenance* if you don't have a wheel truing stand, faffing about with a crayon and a spoke spanner, was at it all day yesterday. Dania Ramirez in Premium Rush. *The hardest is wrapping your handlebars in race ribbon.

Young JJ Gabriel needs to get one of those showbiz divorces from his agent/dad, former Barnet and Staines Town defender Joe O'Cearuill. Dreadful reputation as a menace and nuisance in JJ's career - changed the kid's name for commercial sparkle - a sinister failed clogger living vicariously. #MUFC

Little inside joke at the start of Get Carter, now on BBC2. Gangsters viewing porn; "What's that, a python?" Cut to real life villain John Bindon laughing: known in the underworld to be legendarily well endowed. His party piece was hanging four pint jugs off his 'manhood', as they used to call it.
