@mckone.bsky.social a couple years back in 2015, you did a series of 6 beautiful interlocking star wars covers for Mile High Comics. I haven't been able to find a colorist credit anywhere for them - any chance you recall who colored it?

Can confirm this book was awesome.
Friends, LAWFUL #1 hits comic book stores today, and I'd be thrilled if you'd check it out. It's one of the most personal and fantastical books I've ever written, and the art by Diego Galindo, colors by Irma Kniivila, and letterers by @simonbowland.bsky.social are just stunning.

Find out @denizcamp.bsky.social is associating himself with Mark Millar is so disappointing. Another leftist creator who is willingly to be associates with these scamming bigots. I hope this is marvel forcing him to and not by choice.

It's crazy how much one bad experience can frame your opinion of a writer for years. When I was like 12 or something, I read a specific book by a specific author and decided that they weren't for me. About two/three years ago, I revisited that author, and they've quickly risen to one of my favs...

@gregpak.bsky.social I was curious about a character appearance in City Boy- is the Swamp Thing shown Alec or Levi? The lettering suggests Alec, but given that Titans used Alecs lettering for Levi recently, I wanted to clarify. Thanks!

WRITER’S COMMENTARY
This is a joke which operates by replacing the word “x-men” in a famous phrase by marvel character and x-men founder professor x with the word “x-mas” (a shortening of “Christmas” the midwinter Christian festival to celebrate Christ’s birth). (Cont)

The Kenan backup story in Action Comics was easily my favorite thing I've read all year. Please, put Yang on Action Comics. I liked Johnson's run but since he's leaving and a new writer will eventually be needed.... YANG! #YANGGANG

Never seen it before, so, news of the new live action series spurred me to watch the first episode of Gargoyles. Pretty fun, and much better than what I expected from a show of this age. Not sure if I'll continue, but I like the idea of it getting better as it branches out, so maybe I will.

I forgot how damn good the first season of doctor who (2005) is. I know people don't remember eccelston that fondly, but man the fact that this all comes back around and ties together so well is absolutely awesome

I say this like I don't still have like 20 silver/goldens to buy and another god knows how many that aren't published yet
I know DC will never do it anytime soon, but I crave them to continue their golden age / silver age / bronze age lines into modern age. Give me "modern age Batman" that doesn't care about when the writer switches, includes tons of minis, etc.

This is good but I think not out right banning AI was an interesting choice. Feels like that will have unintended consequences. At least this is a good start!
One of the best parts of the WGA deal: AI has now hit a brick wall in Hollywood, *and that includes adaptations.*
Based on the deal, AI can't be source material. So if you're a publisher, AI novels or graphic novels or whatever just became that much less appealing because *they can't be optioned.*
