Just got word that my comic shop got the email. Seems they got it later than most but Lunar sent out the email sadly. So many people have done and said worse yet still work for DC and wrote for years (Tom King and others). This is sad and disappointing but I can't say I'm shocked.

Seeing Red Hood getting canceled articles floating around, if true its not good DC are spineless cowards (sadly not new). However, the comic I go to said that they never got the email and articles all seem to point back to popverse. Staying skeptical if Red Hood is actually pulled

In last month's sales, the only books in the MU proper that outsold UNCANNY X-MEN were all number one issues. This was for issue 19. That's an achievement. THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT, EVERYONE!

There are plenty of valid reasons hate vivziepop, listening to her takes on trans masc people is painful. She called trans men trenders and redesigned an FtM character out of helluva boss while promoting her MtF character, which is fine but why write out the FtM? She feels like downscaled Benjanun.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Last issue of Plague House released today and this four issue series is going to be hard to beat for comic of the year to me, while fairly gory which could definitely be a turn off the story is well worth the read.

David Cage is an impressive visionary in the field of gaming, in such a tightly competitive field, he always manages to be somehow the biggest hack of them all. It is genuinely astounding how terrible he is.

beyond two souls will forever be immortalized by this image of willem dafoe and elliot page sitting next to david cage during an interview coming to the dawning realization that they worked with a colossal loser on a failure of a project and are unable to even bother hiding their contempt

Marvel editorial will not take you seriously as long as you keep buying low-grade NTR ragebait mysteriously published under the name "Spider-Man." And no writer change will fix that. This has been going on since like the 90s.

Really enjoyed the new Frankie and the Witch Fingers album. Hadn't heard of them before this and they surprised me, the sound of the band is fantastic and something I've been looking for more of.

"I know this decision was incredibly unpopular, but have you considered that we are based?" It's incredible how this statement from J.D. Vance is something that you'd see from a 13 yr old on 4chan. The current administration being full of debate bros and the most evil people feels satirical.

Vance: I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents

Really been enjoying this run of detective comics excited for 1100.

Tom Taylor@tomtaylormade.bsky.social

Detective comics #1100 is coming. Can’t wait for everyone to see @mikeljanin.bsky.social’s amazing art on this unique story. And we’re getting a variant cover from… Frank Miller!

World is kind of a mess right now, news isn't good and somehow we are back to war with Iran. Venting ain't gonna make me feel better, but my rabbit will. Remember to take care of yourself everyone.

Even from the opposite coast, I'm intrigued by the NYC mayoral race. Not because I hate Cuomo—I obviously hate Cuomo—but because it's a stress test for Ranked Choice Voting which we desperately need all over the country. 🤞

It is far easier to get into cape comics than people imagine, you don't need to know every character and every plot to enjoy a series. Some background knowledge is needed sure, but not as much as people pretend on the internet.

Went on a tangent today, at the end of the day please read comics and books from many places. Plenty of great writers and artist pull from many cultures. Its so easy to dismiss what you haven't read or engaged with, but also you can not like something without it being trash or slop.

I'll fully engage, this is a gross over simplification and generalization. There's no way however that anyone seeing the original doesn't know that. It is insane that people who haven't read a comic since the civil rights movement are commenting about western cape comics. 1/2

We've had great alternate superman's, Red Son is fantastic and I still love it. You don't need to trash something else to enjoy other media, go read a comic before posting a take this bad. 2/2

Japanese superheros: gym bro who dyes his hair before important fights American superheroes: Holocaust survivor reflecting on his life spent in a camp trying to prevent it from happening again I can do this too, please two things can be good but also comics have evolved a lot since 1920. 1/x

My Hero Academia is literally just one big love letter to Marvel as it currently exists and in the past. Anyway, you should check out this cool book Orientalism by Edward Said 4/4

Batman, while starting out as a simple dude in costume who fights other guy in costume, has reach a point in the comics where real stories are told, just like how many manga have a reached a similar point. We are at 14 timelines of Gundam and a story about Naruto's kid, be serious. 2/x

Throwing western comics under the bus for a quick jab because you don't like them to prop up manga is insane since the writers of each respect each other a lot and pull from each other all the time. The writer of Something is Killing the Children has a complete collection of Berserk on his shelf. 3/

When someone says “the president is not a dictator” and you say “maybe soon though” I worry that that’s a akin to “obeying in advance.” No. The president of the US is not a dictator. Even if he would like to be, we will not allow it.

everything seems fairly wrong and cruel right now. i don't think either Excessive Hope or Doom are useful. neither are really considerate to the world or the people around you, it's either just ignoring everything or giving up. be real and have each others backs. take care of each other

A lot of autistics don't know what to do with ourselves today. My only advice is Do Not do anything permanent. You're allowed to grieve, despair, be enraged and struggle to handle that in a healthy way. Don't beat yourself up for not being calm or "normal" about this, but Be Safe
