The best way to promote comics is to talk about them. Share what you're reading. Celebrate what you love. With that in mind, time for my semi-regular rundown of stuff I've been reading recently. #ReadMoreComics

Started a little reread of NAILBITER by @joshuawilliamson.bsky.social, @mikeshenderson.bsky.social, & co. A compelling serial killer mystery that slowly unravels and gets more intense as it goes. If you like the genre this is a must read.

FANTASTIC FOUR vol. 3 by Jonathan Hickman, Neil Edwards, & co. The trick in making good FF is balancing big science ideas with great family dynamics. Sometimes folks are great at one and not the other and it just doesn't quite work. Hickman is the template for how to do it right.

THE SMELL OF STARVING BOYS by Loo Hui Phang and Frederik Peeters. Frederik Peeters might be my favorite cartoonist working today so when I get a new book from him I save it for special occasions. As expected, this is one of the best comics I've read in years. Gorgeous, devastating, beautiful, weird.

And sidenote to any English language publishers reading. Please, please, please pick up the rest of Peeters' books for an English translation. At least someone publish RG and Saint-Elme. I'm begging you.
