Yeah, I realize now that I’ve seen it a lot in Manga, but would just briefly think “that’s a weird notch in that word balloon” then move on and forgot about it. I don’t think it really works too well for western audiences.

Well deserved!
And now I expect new tariff announcements for Norway.

That is interesting. To my lettering friends, are you familiar with this and what are your opinions about it?

I’ve never seen this before! An *inward-indicating* word-balloon tail (that’s the speaker’s right arm descending below the word balloon).

FASCINATING! Does this tail technique have a name? Have folks seen it used elsewhere?? I have so many questions!!! (From HIRAYASUMI, book 3, pg 37)

Interesting. If I’ve seen it before, I didn’t realize it was trying to indicate.

Am I the only one who now wants to get him started on “flash fiction”?

I learned awhile ago that doing their homework for them is a fool’s errand anyways. Many times if you present them with a source of the info, they won’t read it.

Oh wow, I didn’t realize that was you. I adored that series when it came out. It was so good.

Charlie Kirchoff ➡️ MNCBA FallCon 2025 @charliekirchoff.com · 2d

Oh wow. That looks amazing!

Anything written by Adam Nevill. He’s probably best known for the Ritual, which was adapted into a movie. But my personal favorite of his is Apartment 16

Wisconsin is a great state…

I’m also not sure if the media coverage would break through in the way it would have in the past anyways. The information environment is just so fractured now that not enough people are getting it.
