Appearing EXCLUSIVELY in DoCB, Vol. 2... It's 2035. The 'Slop-pocalypse' has destroyed the world. A small group of free-brained humans battles 'slopper' drones that seek to turn them all into zombified 'scrollers'...and humanity has one FINAL plan to send a solider back to...the '90s?!

I don't think there's much awareness for the my old site anymore, so the name is probably now disorienting (although hopefully a Pee Wee's Playhouse-esque Bookcase telling stories is self-evident) but I like this obnoxious charlatan, and also I'm nothing if not committed to the bit, so he's back!

A 68-page digital chapbook exploring the lineage between the politically provocative Dark Knight Returns, Batman: The Cult, and Punisher: P.O.V., benefitting the Asheville Prison Books Project. A neat idea, no? Just $5.95 at avlpb.bigcartel.com

Detail from Batman: The Cult, capitalizing on the trend of using screen shaped panels to evoke media coverage.
Panel 1: Old white woman saying: “All the crooks have been driven off the streets. What’s there to be afraid of?”
Panel 2: blue-collar coded white guy saying: “The deacon’s done a great job of cleaning up this town. I say let him run things!”
Panel 3: ethnically ambiguous guy saying: “Don’t see why we need any help from the state.Things are fine just the way they are.”
Panel 4: old white man saying: “It’s time we thought about making Gotham the fifty-first state. A neat idea, no?”

if you don't know, Comics Bookcase was the comics site I created and ran from 2018 - 2022 when i pivoted to really trying to write comics in 2024, I created a big anthropomorphic Comics Bookcase to be a narrator / stand-in for me, sharing comics with disinterested folks who didn't ask for them

Me talking about someone I've posted with on the same social media site for a long time but never actually met

Still from the television show What We Do in the Shadows showing Laszlo speaking. Text reads "he's my best friend, he's my pal. He's my homeboy, my rotten soldier. He's my sweet cheese, my good-time boy."

And this time he's brought a loving homage to Reign of the Supermen with him ... it ties nicely with the title of the series, plus it's the first massive comics event I remember as a little kid I love the big goofy Bookcase personally, here's hoping you do too! www.kickstarter.com/projects/zac...

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

These fools think people wanted isolated, hyper individual lives/experience when art (visual, textual, music, etc) is about connection and communication between people.
