Magical creatures don’t exist, eh? Roughly 400 million years ago, before the birth of trees, there were giant mystery cones called “Prototaxites,” which grew nearly 30 feet tall. We literally have no idea what they were. Plant: no Mushroom: no Animal: no Tell me this isn’t a little bit magic

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

I genuinely hate that Moore and Sprouse don't legally own TOM STRONG. It is one of my favourite things Moore's done in comics.

Sony's in-development Clone Saga series is my DOOMSDAY, DUNE, THE ODDYSSEY, and BARBIE all rolled into one—and I'm almost 100% certain it'll disappoint me. (Unless they're hiring J.M. DeMatteis to write it.)

Everyone is (rightly) roasting this, but I think it's truly sad how little this techbro wants to engage with others through art. How empty is their life? Are they not interested in other people's accomplishments, hopes, fears? (No, because you can't IPO on those.)

You know what would be cool? If one, even one, “cancelled“ white guy actually experienced long lasting consequences. Just like, ever. Not “sit and wait a year or so” and then go right back to it, but now grabbing extra money by whining you were “cancelled”. It would be so cool. So. Cool.

(That said, CELEBRITY SKIN will always be one of my favourites. At one point, I wanted to play with the line, "A walking study in demonology," as the title to WORK-LIFE BALANCE's intro, but my publisher advised against it, just in case it could get us in legal trouble.)

Wayne Rée (he/they) @waynereewrites.com · 29/09/2026
Between LIVE THROUGH THIS and CELEBRITY SKIN, I've always gravitated towards the latter. It's definitely more polished, more pop (intentionally so, I imagine). These last few years though, the former has really grown on me, especially when I have the time to just sit and enjoy it.

That tracks. I'm very picky about which Tom Cruise movies I support in the cinema and I had no idea what to make of this one, at least from the trailers.

Meanwhile, many of the women harmed had their careers and aspirations derailed. But it's supposedly unfair for him not to be given a second chance.

I am deeply disappointed in Image for choosing to publish new comics from Ellis without him doing that work, when he previously abused his position as a popular comics writer to do what he did.

With the conversations happening here today, I'm thinking about how Ellis gets to have a "second chance" without doing any of the work to change or even meaningfully apologise to the scores of women he harmed and manipulated. All he had to do was wait a while.

“but Alex you have to separate the art from the artist” 1. this is a luxury only afforded to the in-group of artists who benefit from the patriarchy; I reject this on first principles 2. also the art is bad

While bail was being processed, I was handcuffed and briefly shackled, and made to wait in a lock-up cell with a pastel pink door and bars (because it was the women's lock-up, get it?) I've written about this experience here: www.wethecitizens.net/a-little-tim...

My charge under the Public Order Act has to do with participating in group photos outside the State Courts in Feb 2025. The authorities say this is an illegal assembly in a prohibited area. Others have been charged, too. The judge imposed bail of S$5,000 surety. My passport had to be surrendered.

I wore this shirt to the State Courts for my court mention for one count of "taking part in a public assembly within a prohibited area". Security wouldn't let me into the building wearing it. I ultimately took it off by the entrance and turned it inside out before I was allowed in.

Wrote close to a thousand words today. Pretty happy with it, but I can already feel doubt creeping in. The freelance work might be good for me beyond earning more cash. Maybe it'll take my mind off the book long enough that I'll come back to it with fresh, hopefully more forgiving eyes.

(I gave the Scarlet Spider a balled-up fist and Spider-Man an open palm because Ben was angrier when he came back, but more confident in himself—more free—when he took over as Spider-Man.) (Seriously, Marvel, hire me to write a Chasm mini-series.)
