I do ALSO like that Supergirl presents why she isn’t Superman without making Superman a dickhead. He loves her and is worried for her but respects her right to live the life she chooses.

I think, every so often, about how the student protesters in South Korea figured out there was a finite supply of tear gas, and then staged retreating marches that caused police to burn off most of it, before the big "bring your auntie and kids" marches that ultimately toppled the dictatorship.

Welcoming in 2026! Creating comics kept me sane in 2025. It was a blast and a year of huge creative growth, community, and friendships. I’m thankful for it, and for all those supporting, encouraging, mentoring, and joining me on this journey. 2026 is shaping up to be my most ambitious year yet!

I’m more interested in nailing down a definitive phrase or word for the many ways that Canadian things are melted into that pot of American stew. Anything filmed in Vancouver, obviously, but it’s so much more.

The image is of the sorceror, Gwydion, surrounded by wild animals (wolf, boar, deer) in a Celtic knotwork frame. Gwydion's hat is crowned with antlers. He carries an axe in his right hand and an oak twig in his left.

"Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone." -- Shirley Jackson, perfecting the semicolon, and the opening paragraph.

"No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more."
