Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 08/10/2026@denizcamp.bsky.social so lovely interviewing you today, Deniz! I hope you enjoyed our chat --- and MilkyWave! 010
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 07/10/2026The only Midnight book I dislike so far is Fantastic Four. X-Men had great characterization and good ideas, and Spider-Man was the only one that felt like a true horror book. 110

Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The students at The Cornell Daily Sun exercised the uncompromising, uncompromised journalism our country sorely needs. We're lucky to have them. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/29/n...nytimes.comThe Student Journalists Who Never Let the Cornell Assault Case GoThe student newspaper, The Cornell Daily Sun, covered the allegations of rape at a fraternity house since they were first made in 2024 and led the reporting on the case. 010
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Yeah, so PRIMETIME is freakin' WILD. Pattinson will continue to get the lion's share of the acclaim, so instead I want to spotlight Skyler Gisondo, who gives what might be his best, deepest, most complex performance yet, and whose presence and power linger long after the credits roll. 030
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Am I the only one here who is very lukewarm on Avengers Endgame? It's too long, too busy, and far from the most enjoyable MCU movie, thanks in no small part to its many contrivances (and Hawkeye's dumb fuckin' haircut). 001
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 26/09/2026A small number of Advance Reader Copies of MilkyWave #1 are here! If you're a comics pro and want one, all you gotta do is holler! @lanedraws.bsky.social, @porrafabi.bsky.social, @micahmyers.bsky.social and I have whipped up one hell of a sci-fi romp. 021
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 25/09/2026One of my favorite panels from MilkyWave #2! This issue was a blast to write. @lanedraws.bsky.social is a powerhouse. Can't wait for y'all to read the whole thing! 031
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Meant to post about it a few days ago, but RESIDENT EVIL is a damn near perfect movie worth multiple trips to the theater. Zach Cregger delivers a lean, fun, straightforward horror romp that easily stands as one of the year's best films. 040
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 18/09/2026 I finally watched THE END OF OAK STREET, and I was...underwhelmed. It all plays like an insipid, half-explored version of a fun idea, leaving no impression at all. D- 100
Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Pleased — but not at all surprised — to report that the new season of "Slow Horses" is a certified banger. Brisk, punchy, and pathos-driven, this show outclasses just about every other offering currently on TV. My review for @seattletimes-rss.bsky.social: www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...seattletimes.comOne of Apple TV’s best shows is back with another fantastic season | ReviewThe upcoming sixth season, premiering Wednesday on Apple TV, dials up, dials in and doubles down on all of the show's best elements, writes our reviewer. 020

Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 13/09/2026REPOSTING because I botched Daniele's last name. LOVED this first issue! Zippy, vibrant, fun, and wholly its own thing. Fans of Daniele Di Nicuolo's work on SEVEN SECRETS and anything/everything Kyle Higgins writes will have a ball. 010

Hayden Mears @haydenmears.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Things I learned firsthand during my week at the Annecy Animation Festival: -Brad Bird gives a killer interview. -Animation is somehow even cooler than I knew it was prior to the fest. -Kiwi banana is THE superior ice cream flavor, and it really isn't close. -I am a sorry, sweaty beast without AC. 030
