Check out this awesome CG cover for #ThePhantom 1000 by Aussie artist Glenn Ford. Released in 1992, this was actually the 1028th edition printed due to specials etc.

#AssassinsCreed set in colonial #Australia when?

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Maybe you could reboot this brilliant series?

@madcavestudios.com I've been reading #ThePhantom since I was seven. I'm 40 now. I ADORE your first issue. The team did a brilliant job! I think my favourite part, though, was this little Bandar dude pretending to be his hero. 💜

Well, if you're fine with second hand smoke affecting everyone from kids to the elderly then that's awesome.

Actually if #Reform had its way *I* wouldn't be here, being White-Australian with "only" indefinite leave to remain.

Joe @joeypajamas.bsky.social · 6d

My daughter was born 5 days ago. Of the 20 to 30 hospital staff we interacted with AT LEAST HALF of them were PoC/ non-British-heritage. Without them my daughter may literally not be here.

#Reform and the racist right need to be shot into the sun.

Google has determined that ICE agents are a vulnerable group and has used this designation as pretext to delete an app that helped communities determine where ICE raids were happening

Google Calls ICE Agents a Vulnerable Group, Removes ICE-Spotting App ‘Red Dot’

The move comes as Apple removed ICEBlock after direct pressure from U.S. Department of Justice officials and signals a broader crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

Wonder if @sega.jp themselves will make any comment on the poor reception of this remake?

In the second part of #Music of #SEGA, I'm diving into the fourth generation of consoles. Where SEGA is concerned, this covers their most successful console, the #MegaDrive, as well as its two add-ons, the #Mega-CD and #32X.

The Phantom wears purple in the jungle. Why? Because if you’re ghost-walking for justice, you might as well slay.

Every issue of #OneWorldUnderDoom has been amazing! So cleverly written and really casts the #Marvel heroes in a new light. Can't wait to see where it goes, but I'd love a while year or two of #DoctorDoom rule. #MakeMineMarvel #comicbooks

Thank you. They are somewhat rare. The one at the front is a PVC figure from Australia. The one on the left is from the recent NECA Defenders of the Earth line. The Pop vinyl at the back was released in purple, red, blue and this Australian-exclusive grey.
