Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

This is cool! Charlie Cox is obviously cool (I don't recognize the other actors) and @hivemindactual.bsky.social are great comic writers so I'm excited to see what they do with a feature film!

Out now from @bigfinish.bsky.social is my first-ever audio drama! So excited to have written a story for Sacha Dhawan's delightfully unhinged Master for the newly-released box set, Call Me Master: Monsters. Dan Starkey, Jacqueline King, and Rameet Rauli are all a joy to hear.

2.2 The Ideal Quarry by Jody Houser
To make his journey more interesting, the Master has decided to take on a travelling companion - disgraced Sontaran Vegg, who is keen to get home for his execution. But soon the Master and his escort are marooned on a world where they are not the only hunters. In fact, they are the quarry...

This box set marks the Big Finish debut of Jody Houser, known to Doctor Who fans as the writer of many Titan Comics stories. Jody said: "In the comic stories, I've written for seven different Doctors and several different Masters, most prominently Missy, but this is my first time writing Sacha's Master, so that was very exciting!

"This version of the Master is a really interesting evolution from Missy, who was much more whimsical and felt much more in control. This is the Master who’s known what it's like to be in control and has decided he's just not into that right now."

Finally got GS X-Men 2 comps in, allowing for a little reflection; @hivemindactual.bsky.social’s First Age at Marvel was filled with incredible moments, but we only got to END with one, and I’ve got to say…

“TO ME MY MARVELOUS X-MEN” is a BANGER to go out on.

Back in one of July’s A-Comic-A-Day posts, I talked about a Star Trek ashcan from IDW @idwpublishing.com that included an excerpt from Star Trek: The Last Starship. Now the first full issue is out, did I enjoy it?
Spoiler, I only put comics I enjoy on these posts.

We wanted to take a moment to talk about the dedication page in The Last Starship #1. Our amazing artist Adrian Bonilla shared a deeply personal story about how his father, Miguel Manuel Bonilla Cantero, tragically lost his life during a major flooding event in Spain. @idwpublishing.com

Similar but different - Realizing what the protagonist’s name SHOULD have been, instead of the “good enough I guess” you went with
