Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

What treats shall you bestow this season? What wondrous costume shall you parade?

Haven’t been posting much for a while… been through hell, you guys, but I’m back just in time for All Hallows. Happy harvest!

Just finished Epitaphs From the Abyss Vol. 1 — had a blast with it. EC-style anthology horror brought into today: creepy art, pulpy twists, & stories that are just plain gory fun.

Spooky, campy, & a worthy revival of the EC vibe.

No idea. We knew we were creating a shared universe, but there was never any official coordination. Just a casual creative overlap.

A world in which Israeli soldiers are indistinguishable from Nazi soldiers is some shit, ain't it?

Doc and Drew Saturday are the same age. They do have very different temperaments, yes, but they respect each others differences and balance each other out. Opposites do attract sometimes.

This is true.

Did you know Doc Saturday ( The Dad) from The Secret Saturdays was Black. And his character design was based on Harry Belafonte?

Correct! I'm a big Jonny Quest fan, and Hanna-Barbera adventure hero cartoons in general.

Anyone watch The Secret Saturdays?

It had a lot of Jonny Quest in its feel

They had evil mirror universe versions, downnto the Eyepatch of Evil.

Today is the birthday of artist Ramona Fradon (Oct. 2, 1926-Feb. 24, 2024). Most known for cocreating Metamorpho and her work on Aquaman, Superfriends, Plastic Man, and the comic strip Brenda Starr, Reporter.

A commission she did of Aquaman’s wedding and three comic books she did the covers and/or the interior art for: The Brave and the Bold #66, featuring Metamorpho and the Metal Men, Superfriends #28, and Plastic Man #19.

I love these.
Death at the door, the uninvited guest... so sharply dressed, so ominous, who is he here to see, who will he drag to the afterl... NOT TODAY DEATH.
With a barrage of bottles he's kicked out and quickly escapes out the window.
Not today.

Never imagined I’d get to see this ‘lost’ Canadian film. Thank you!

Today is the birthday of cartoonist & animator Otto Messmer (Aug. 16, 1892-Oct. 28, 1983), most known for creating Felix the Cat for the Pat Sullivan Studio. He not only worked on the cartoons, but also the Felix the Cat newspaper comic strip & comic books.

A cool hybrid of Johnny Quest and The Wild Thornberrys, The Secret Saturdays is a wild ride of a Saturday morning cartoon, and the intro really captures the broad spectrum of what you can expect from the actual show. Also a big fat "fuck you" to every bigot who hates interracial couples with kids!
