One of my favorite writer quotes of all time.

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 1d

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I loved Batman #2 by Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez. Incredible job ! @mattfraction.bsky.social @jorgejimenezart.bsky.social

Batman #2 is feels like the best parts of 90's Batman

The story picks up from the cliffhanger at the end of issue 1, with Robin (Tim Drake) cornered as the corrupt Gotham PD closes in. As Robin tries to flee, he is shot and injured by one of the officers...

If @danpgwatters.bsky.social Nightwing get cancelled I will riot. One of the best runs this character has ever had.

Between Panels @betweenpanels.bsky.social · 18d

Super disheartened to hear this. One of best mainline DC books

Chris Condon @ NYCC - Artist Alley F-01 @christophcondon.bsky.social · 18d

Issue thirty-one of GREEN ARROW will be my final issue on the title. It's been fantastic to work with Montos, Buddy, Hass, Adriano, and Chris Rosa on the book. More than that, it's been a dream to work on a character like Ollie for DC Comics. I'm bummed we have to end things here...

Between Panels @betweenpanels.bsky.social · 18d

Chris this was genuinely one of the best ongoing titles at DC. Whoever takes over next has big shoes to fill. You and Montos did an incredible job and I think this is the best GA book of the last decade (at least). You will be sorely missed.

I’ve never reads a single challengers of the unknown comic and I LOVED your mini series. Really great stuff

Between Panels @betweenpanels.bsky.social · 28d

I’m gonna real, I wasn’t sure how I was feeling about this book until the most recent issue. I am not fully on board with it. I see the vision

Another incredible issue from @nickdragotta.bsky.social and @ssnyder1835.bsky.social

Absolute Batman #12 is a masterclass in brutality and emotional stakes

12 issues in, and Snyder and Dragotta have no intentions of hitting the breaks.After a brief break exploring Bane's backstory, the series jumps back into the action. Bruce, having escaped Ark M with W...
