Peter Cullen dying during the 40th anniversary rerelease of TF:TM is the wildest PR stunt since Slayer released GOD HATES US ALL on 9/11/01.

Damn, Jack Kirby even predicted the demise of Twitter. What a visionary!

Friends, Jennifer’s memorial is this Sunday, April 6th at Books with Pictures here in Portland, where she spent some of her happiest days (and ate her weight in waffles). The service will start at 11 am, with a light lunch and gathering to follow.

Hey, remember the kerfuffle about #meta no longer fact-checking content that's posted to their platforms? Don't worry: independent fact-checkers are on the case to let you know that THAT FOOTBALL MAN DID NOT FLIP OFF DONALD TRUMP FAKE NEWS.

I feel personally targeted by @manruss.bsky.social who seems determined to make me cry every time I pick up one of his books.

If you’re pre-FF Jack Kirby, you don’t even need to wait until the end of the story. Just zoom waaaaaaay out in the middle of a conversation.

There are podcasts that I love as much as Screw It, We're Just Gonna Talk About Comics but none that I love more than them. When they started an issue-by-issue series on my favorite superhero comic of all time, I was wracking my brain trying to figure out a way to pitch myself to them as a guest.

About 20 years ago, Excalibur Comics in Portland hosted a silent art auction for Wonder Woman Day to benefit a local women’s shelter. And even though I was broke as a joke at the time, I was lucky enough to win this piece by Bernie.

I’m late to the party on @rainbowrowell.bsky.social and Andrés Genolet’s SHE-HULK, but it is a goddamn delight: a brilliantly funny, fighty romance comic. It’s hard to do even one of those well! I’ve enjoyed almost every SHE-HULK run, but I don’t think I’ve loved any of them more than this one.

If this week’s events have you in a state of despair, just remember that Richard Nixon won re-election in 1972, winning 49 states in the Electoral College. Two years later, he shot himself in the Oval Office in front of Captain America. Never lose hope.
