@zandercannon.bsky.social put us readers in a torture rack for Issue #7 of Sleep. So much so because it was a one that drove me nuts by the end of the story but I loved it and had to give my thoughts before the finale this month. #comicsky

That cool, smooth, dystopian feeling of watching the new Fallout show and one of the three and a half minute ad breaks starting with cool, smooth, 100% AI generated animals driving cars. The sort of "don't worry, the future is here" messaging that the Fallout games always made fun of.

A thoughtful and in-depth analysis of the first 6 issues (out of 8) of SLEEP. Thank you, Josh-- that's fantastic to read!
Oops, I did it again (wrote and sent a newsletter talking comic books). It's on Substack, but it's always free!

Today I wrote about @zandercannon.bsky.social 's delightful Sleep, from Image Comics!

I worked with book publishers doing non-fiction comics for about 10 years, and there was always an offer to adapt classic literature. Despite the fact that in retrospect it was a financial blunder to say no, I was never interested-- why reinterpret it? Why recreate it? It felt unnecessary.
Now to getting kids reading.

This made me laugh. Like actually.

I am 35 in a month, and I can remember being bought manga Hamlet and never reading it. This has been happening for a long time already. This is not the way to get kids reading classic literature.
