Genie: ...that's your first two wishes, then. Your third? Me: I want the very power of life & death. Genie (looking around at the world): .... Me: .... Genie: Yeah okay.

I would like to see more men talking about how to and peer pressuring each other into calling out misogyny and rape culture. Going against social norms is hard, and it helps to share tips and support.

Had yet another encounter today where I was pinned on a street corner, with a walk sign, because a driver who wanted to turn right on red absolutely refused to look anywhere but oncoming traffic. Some people get behind a wheel and think "car" and "other car" are the only two worlds in existence.

Had no idea that freakin' ERIC STANTON assisted Boody Rogers on some of the Babe stories. (original page Stanton helped out on, the printed colors, the issue it was in, random Stanton original)

1991 Sears catalog photo. Those of us who lived through this time period are still mentally recovering. Psychiatrists across America steeling themselves and saying, "tell me about the sunglasses and the paint-splatter pants."

Totally hate it when I make the wrong move in chess and the robot elephant attacks.

I've never liked ICE. Even back when they used to call themselves the Klan.

Sneak peek at a project I'm working on that will see the light of day maybe... around the start of the year? These are Sack Crows. They're like crows but even smarter, have two human arms in addition to wings, and a kangaroo pouch that's basically a Bag of Holding. They're capable-ish of speech.

Published by Edizioni Meroni, this series is a retelling of the classic Rocambole character, a criminal who decides to switch teams, so to speak, and use his impressive criminal abilities (and fortune...

Just finished another fumetti blog-gallery! This one is Rocambol, a series from the mid-sixties that tried to capitalize on the popularity of a character from the 1800's. Lasted 8 issues. Still kinda fun, though. www.paultobin.net/blog-2-1/roc...

A couple of the best to ever do it. Alfonso Font and Moebius. (I super do not own these)

Given time, trust, and respect, I may grow to like someone as much as I instantly like their pets.

Strangest part of my day was when my wife & I were out for walk & a dude in a mini-van rolled up & said, "You two look like a nice couple. Could you help me? I need someone to use a credit card to sign me up for a phone plan." My dog... no. No, dawg. No.

Still cataloging old girlie magazines and I'd forgotten how the magazines of the 80's taught an entire generation that when women take their clothes off, their entire bodies immediately produce a complete covering of baby oil that makes their bodies gleam, glint, sparkle, and shine.

Found some original art from Federico Fellini. Let's just see what's in the mind of this undisputed genius, shall we?

A pair of Guido Crepax originals from when he was just 18 years old, illustrating Poe stories... The Tell-Tale Heart and The Fall of the House of Usher.

Very fitting WTF illustration for Stephen King's "Lawnmower Man" from a 1975 issue of the Cavalier men's magazine.

Going to the gym today. I go three days a week & do 1100+ calories each time. My gym is going to be closed for 2 weeks after this, so it just makes sense that, in order to make up for that, I do 7700 calories today. My wife says this is "super dumb" & "not the way it works," but the math checks out.

I wasn't exactly sure where this original "Alias Flic" page of mine was published, but this morning--while randomly wandering the internet--I ran across a clue that, however tenuous, may be worth pursuing.
