FML #2. This comic slaps so hard. Nothing has ever been so surreal - and yet so very, very real.

@kellysue.bsky.social, @davidlopez.bsky.social, Cris Peter, and @claytoncowles.bsky.social all absolutely on fire in this one

Great score full of gloom. Great cinematography that juxtaposes this country's ugliest inclinations against its most beautiful scenery.

Do yourself a favor and see it in a big dark room.

Happy holidays, dirt bags.

This movie rocks. We're so fuckin doomed. Nothing changes.

Everybody in this movie is going so hard in every single moment. Jude Law sounded like a strange choice, but he's chewing gum and scenery so hard he's about to have an aneurysm.

Just saw #TheOrder in a packed small-ish screen at the AMC Metreon in downtown SF.

Walked out of this knock-down hard scramble of a movie about white supremacy and domestic terrorism to find a Xmas shopping hellscape.

America in a nutshell.

I don't want to oversell things, but this week's episode of #StarTrek #LowerDecks is an unbelievable orgy of fan service, with guest stars for days and one or two long-deferred Trekkie wet dreams fulfilled. I loved it. One more to go!

What y'all Bay Area nerds doing on Thursday? Come by @missioncomics.bsky.social to talk about Black Cloak vol 1

It's an urban fantasy murder mystery by @kellythompson.bsky.social @iniquitousfish.bsky.social @imagecomics.bsky.social - and the Mission Comics graphic novel club is always a great hang!

Post someone you've been told you look like, who you definitely don't look like

My girlfriend and her mom insist I look like John Travolta. I don't see it

In this issue, one of our heroes needs to speak to the boss he betrayed. The only way to do it safely is to track him down in shul on Yom Kippur... as the Viddui is recited.

I've never *heard* a comic so clearly in my head.

Kosher Mafia #4. Still dope as hell.

The series is a crime story about a mob accountant and a mob enforcer who go rogue when their boss refuses to act against a local branch of the Bund (paramilitary WWII-era German American Nazi sympathizers)

I'd never heard of @tulalotay.bsky.social before Somna. Now I see her variant covers all over the place. And I think that's awesome

Anyway, Exorcism at 1600 Penn is a dope comic about demons in the White House

Calavera P.I. #2 is good shit!

A timely revisionist noir tale of an undead Latino detective, economic injustice, and unlawful deportations

Great story and cool art by

Anyway, Trekkies, the Defiant comic is the Captain Worf series you always wanted. He's on the Defiant with Spock, Ro, B'Elanna, and others doing off-the-books black ops shit. (And you can see how it will lead Spock to the Kelvin-verse and Worf to his Picard series silver fox self)

@angelunzueta.bsky.social & @marissadraws.bsky.social are on fire. The likenesses, linework, colors - chef's kiss

(My one complaint about the series is how their art contrasts with the CG ships and interiors -- it's jarring, though I assume it allows Unzueta the time to make the figures look good)

The Spock-Worf relationship has been an unexpected highlight of this series so far. Two characters that wouldn't necessarily go well together, but @ifyoucantwell.bsky.social makes it work, and he makes their farewell bittersweet and meaningful.
