I dig this "hand o' the artist" page by @paulchadwick.bsky.social

From "The Building That Didn't Explode" short comic by Paul Chadwick, (in Concrete vol.6 "Strange Armor") concluding to the author's contemplations about coincidences/theodicy with a fourth-wall-breaking view of the his hands drawing out "empty" comic panels and his pen leaving a blot of ink on the page.

Captions read: "Control the things you can. Me, I can control a comics page fairly well. I'll stick to that. Oops. Where's that Whiteout?"

As I recall it was changed because so many people popped the removed tab into the drink and then swallowed it accidentally. A real design lesson. Beta test!

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

He is going to prove them so wrong. This will be the most popular museum in the country, and will grow in stature every decade. I hope they accept illustrators' and cartoonists' personal papers and originals. Could be a center of scholarship.

It would be cool if Scott wore a huge radiograph pen sticking through his head like Steve Martin's early arrow prop when he gave his TED talks.

Which plot hole do you mean? I'm too confused to know. Enjoying it, though. I don't understand why some characters do things. "Draw me nude!" Bothers me that John was burned alive, a few hours later healed with alien magic, and it's the last it's mentioned. I mean he's a tough guy, but come on.

My writing partner and I tried for a long time. The executives were like "Magnus who...?" And then there was the Classic Media company problem. They claimed to own a lot of stuff that they didn't quite exactly reeeeally have title to... Dell properties among them. Turok skated out.

Thanks Chris: Manning it was. I wish I met him; Dave Stevens and Bill Stout did assistant work for him (both of the La Brea studio, along with me and Richard Hescox.) We referred to "death burritos," to which was attributed Manning's heart attack (without much evidence, it must be said).

This is so timely. Who wrote Magnus anyway? Russ Manning himself?

I remember when I first learned about Magnus Robot Fighter, the dude that really fascinated me was 1-A, the robot that found baby Magnus and trained him to destroy other robots. Like wtf

Harrowing pilot-stabbing incident details from the Guardian, with a helpful video (including in-flight video call after control was regained). 90 min. until they landed. Indian pilot still alive. Tail damage; that's weird. Get a load of this altitude drop: www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

That last cover suggests a bizarre Roy Batty/Valeria/Yoda/Wolfen team-up which kind of charms me.

First two issues out, modest but respectable, clean layouts and fun content. I appreciate their brisk prose; I have enough verbiage to read every day! I expect it to grow and grow. Very much the vibe of the 70s fanzines I grew up with, so this is catnip to me.

Spent much of today reconnecting with @paulchadwick.bsky.social’s excellent Concrete series. Effortlessly beautiful looking comics that bring to life incredibly human tales. There’s nothing else like it in comics.
