Tried to order a Baja Blast Pie but the Taco Bell guy said they were sold out. So I said “people will eat anything” and we all had a good laugh. Maybe the real Baja Blast was the friends we made along the way

Went to The Last Bookstore and found the last quarter bin where I reunited with this BWS banger. The Vatican setting works so well with his classical leanings. Very fancy and very silly all at once

Good Devils: Don't Play Fair With Evil is here!
Me & @nickdragotta.bsky.social co-created it, @sievish.bsky.social designed it, and @erikaschnatz.bsky.social got us ready for press at Image. I feel really fortunate to have made another book entirely with friends. Rare feeling.
Anyway, please buy it!
the wraparound cover for Good Devils: Don't Play Fair With Evil, a one-shot collecting three stories by Nick Dragotta & David Brothers, designed by Sasha Head. in an homage to 36th Chamber of Shaolin, a tall black woman named Bella strikes a martial arts pose inspired by the film's poster. on either side of her, in inset panels, are a boxer and a gunman who've been spot-colored. To the left is text that reads: "It's a 64-Page Love Letter and we sealed it with a fist."
