My wife saw Verity and has spent the weekend explaining to young people that Josh Hartnett was the No. 1 box office draw from 1999 to 2000.

Good night, sweet prince. You truly were America’s princi-PAL. Thanks for the Cameo Christmas call that one time.

Pour one out for a real one. Josh Cassara was one of the brightest lights of the Krakoa era, and I’m glad I got to meet him, and buy this print from him, at NYCC. Always make sure artists and other creators know how much their work means to you.

Why do that when you could “prompt” your talented artist friend with money to draw you and your cohost as Larry and Balki from Perfect Strangers? Don’t you want to stand tall on the wings of your dreams? DON’T YOU?!

My wife and I had originally talked about getting tattoos in 2020, but … Y’KNOW. She eventually got some, but I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do. Finally, I hit on getting on my kids’ and dogs’ initials in Krakoan. …

Somewhere between turning off this week’s BOTA and walking to the front door of my office building, a lightning bolt struck me:

This week’s hottest new comic is old Jack Kirby because the children need to know what he thought about the hippies!

I dribbled Mucinex DM on my shirt and now it looks like the Lego Space planet is bleeding and I think that’s a good metaphor for [waves hands].

Now that it’s Wednesday I can share this panel that made my heart swell with joy from X-Men #30. Just two platonic work spouses absolutely HOUSING oversized sandwiches. This is pure and good comics. Thank you @nethodiaz.bsky.social for this image.

“Peter, it’s time I told you about Trouble.” “The Troubles? Like in Northern Ireland?” “No, Peter, TROUBLE.” “Is that a new supervillain? Name seems kinda basic.” “NO PETER. TROUBLE.”

Hot take: John Tesh’s “Roundball Rock” is better than “Mr. Brightside” and every song by Linkin Park.

Bit of dayjob, not-at-all comics news: Found out today I'm the lone @pressofatlanticcity.com employee to win an NJPA award this year, in the category of headline writing. The judge called my work "Punchy, pithy, pretty close to perfection in terms of plays on words." That felt nice.
