Censorship and comics. Some stuff has happened in recent weeks, and we're going to pull off the bandage and mix it up.

Twitter-X is a cesspool. I don’t find it and all the fake accounts hilarious at all. The damage it’s done to the US citizenry is massive… with literally no accountability and the opposite of oversight
adamchristopher.me Adam Christopher @adamchristopher.me · 5d
Twitter is hilarious. This from a paid verified account with four letters and five numbers for a username, which follows 40 people and 37 followers... nearly all of which are also letter-number accounts. What was that about an echo chamber?

(Anyway, only logged in to begin the process of deletion)
Twitter bot says: Bluesky... why does every disney author account end the same. "Leaving the most used platform for an echo chamber because im an npc.' Or does Disney require that in their contract? I stopped buying star wars books when I found their quality went down, and then I found this theme. Sad since your book might be good, but Ive been burned too many times now.

The shawarma scene in the first Avengers movie is one of the best examples of comic book characters eating. What are some others? And what makes a good eating scene in a comic book?

Jack Kirby and Sol Brodsky covered Tales to Astonish 59 (1964).

Stan Lee, Dick Ayers, and Paul Reinman splashed it.

Two significances:

• first non-Kirby/non-Ditko pencils on ol’ Greenskin
• Hulk joined the party after this issue, when Tales to Astonish became a split-book
Hulk vs. Giant-Man Giant-Man works out in Avengers Mansion, alongside Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America.

A panel from Tank Girl depicting a woman with a shaved head and denim vest pulling on her boots and saying "I can't let things stay this way. We can be wonderful. We can be magnificent. We can turn this shit around."
