Periodic reminder! I make all the prints on paper I sell by hand, each color individually, with screens I burn or blocks I carve and package them all myself. I don’t print my own shirts, however I have never hidden this fact and don’t lie and say I do! I use a vendor who lives in walking distance>

cinemadual.comEpisode 82: Horror VIII – Argento With Dan MorrisOn this episode of Cinema Dual, Dan Morris returns to haunt the podcast with tales of Italian horror master Dario Argento.

I once again return to Cinema Dual with @joncinemadual.bsky.social and Chris Voss to talk all thing Dario Argento. I also attempt to sing Keith Emerson’s bitching score from Inferno. It doesn’t go well. cinemadual.com/2026/10/26/e...

Leading a discussion on From Hell this week at my store’s graphic novel club. Everytime I reread this book, I’m just staggered by the level of artistry on display from both Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell.

publishersweekly.comArt Spiegelman Revisits His Most Controversial Comic 25 Years LaterFollowing Pantheon’s reissue of In the Shadow of No Towers last month, the cartoonist looks back on how both he and the nation have changed since 9/11.

Reading about Art Spiegelman and Francoise Mouly using generative AI was a depressing way to start my morning. www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

Me: Gosh, I love Suspiria so much Everyone who knows me: Yes we know. Shut up

Also someone dubbing over Udo Kier will never not be funny to me.

Everyone else visiting Rome for the first time “We need to see [insert wonder of the ancient world] first!” Me, a weirdo: Can we go to Dario Argento’s store first? Then the wonders of the ancient world?

Me looking at the baseball playoff standings “Ah, any team I would have cheered for is now eliminated. This means I’m now rooting for *squints* Chicago White Sox?”

Normally I would root for any team playing against the Yankees but it’s the Rays. They’re both evil. So now I hope they somehow eliminate each other.

This makes me think of the origin of the Yankees Suck shirts. It combines three things I love; Fenway Park, punk rock, and a deep hatred for those bums from the Bronx. 30for30podcasts.com/episodes/yan...

Seeing this, I felt obligated to list manga it killed me to leave off. Stuck to the one series per mangaka even though I’m sure I forgot many series!

Andes Chucky@wendeego.bsky.social

scrambled together a top 30 just for fun, with only one series per manga artist allowed. hardly sufficient though--there's so much great manga out there, there's no way i could pick just 30

Following Joey’s lead, I went with the foundational stuff for me in regards to anime.

Joey Weiser@joeyweiser.bsky.social

I tried to steer this towards stuff that were foundational or impactful in some way rather than “Here are 9 shows I like”

21 Sept

Tried to do the same with manga but I agonized over this list. So much it killed me to leave off!

Spent much of today reconnecting with @paulchadwick.bsky.social’s excellent Concrete series. Effortlessly beautiful looking comics that bring to life incredibly human tales. There’s nothing else like it in comics.

comicsbeat.comWednesday Comics Reviews: We are all lucky that Paul Chadwick's CONCRETE is back, and morePaul Chadwick's Concrete is back after a roughly 20-year break with a new miniseries, and much more in this week's column!

All of this prompted by the excellent return of the series. I wrote about the first issue here. www.comicsbeat.com/wednesday-co...

A day late but before I ever read Year One, I had this in a tiny B&W paperback. It tells the pre-Crisis origin of the Dark Knight (and Robin) via a psychological mystery. I treasure my almost 30 year old copy.

Also need to shout out Matt Wagner’s truly deranged Faces story from Legends of the Dark Knight #28-30. Maybe the greatest Two-Face story of all time.

@funeralbeat.bsky.social is one of my very best friends in comics (plus life) and talking to her about anxiety, her approach to making comics, and community was a joy. www.comicsbeat.com/interview-je...

I’ve also thought a lot about a comic I made over 20 years ago that is probably lost to the sands of the internet. Only ever posted it on two message boards, both of which are long gone. Pretty sure the originals were thrown away in one of my many moves.

Also dummy books for two mini comics I did in college, both of which I thought lost, showed up in this move.

Maybe all of this is a sign to start making comics again.

Looking at most of my writing these days and can see why I’m feeling so burned out. Need a definite change of pace in what I’m covering.

I need to go back into reading mini comics and what counts for small/micro press these days.

When shitty people do shitty things in comics, I have to remember there are also a lot of great people doing great things that it’s important to lift up when you can.

Dayjob has once again changed role, which I took so I would not be on the phone all the time, into one that at the least I will spend half my schedule on the phone. And I doubt this change will include a pay increase. I say this all the time, I need to get out of this corporate job.

I will never forget the time I was in Newbury Conics looking at records. These two guys were in the aisle in front of me doing the same. One of them finds one of Tim Curry’s solo albums. He gets real excited about it and says “Dude, look. It’s the guy from Home Alone II! He made an album!”
