“E. Nelson Bridwell: First Fan” written by Reed Tucker and drawn by Dylan Mitchell (Corner Box Press, Aug 2026). I Kickstarted this book when it was first announced, received it yesterday, and read it today. I recommend it to fans and academics alike.

Book cover by Dylan Mitchell showing Nelson Bridwell, from behind, standing at the entrance to the DC Comics office on his first day working there, 13 Jan 1964.

Americans don’t seem to understand how yesterday the fossil fuel economy is, just look at the economic pain we’re suffering because of the Iran war, our abilities to transition to a renewable energy future is critical in so many ways, however we allow the regime to hold us hostage to fossil fuels…🗳️💙

We hear about and see this inequality constantly, yet a minority of MAGA extremists are allowed to elect and put Billionaires in charge of our government, giving them the freedom to enrich themselves, while everyone else struggles, this is the new definition of insanity! C’mon midterms!🗳️💙🗳️

The silliest comment I’ve seen on Rule 34 (a website for hentai drawings) was the complaint, “You made it look like he has breasts!” I thought, “Yeah dude; we all do. Is it really possible you don’t know why we’re called ‘mammals’?”

I find myself weirdly in agreement with the rapist felon — it does a disservice to large language models to call them ‘artificial intelligence’. We should call them ‘fake intelligence’ instead. Fie on FI!
