Remembering my dear friend BERNIE WRIGHTSON on what would’ve been his 78th birthday. Everyday I’m reminded how great and talented he was by his original art I’ve hanging all over my studio walls. A constant source of inspiration. Buon Compleanno, brother, I miss you 🖤

Despite a wrist injury shutting me down, I had to honor Walter Koenig, most known as Chekov in the original Star Trek series. Koenig was also a talented writer, and I'm told was also an amazing human. Thank you, and farewell, Sir. (PS the last pic shows how I managed this drawing, aka, strangely...)

got hit with a $17 shipping fee for a crowdfunded book that cost $30 these high, post-campaign shipping fees are also in part responsible for reduced backer numbers on smaller campaigns imo ... i know they're transparent, but it's still a change to the model and very consumer unfriendly

Such a great thread.

Westerns & the Old West@davidlambertart.bsky.social

On May 11, 1950, while working on the Rawlins National Bank in Wyoming, a construction crew unearthed a whiskey barrel that contained a human skeleton with its skull cap sawed off & an odd pair of shoes. Dr. Lillian Heath, now in her 80s, was asked if she knew anything about it...🧵

The best Absolute book.

arabs can’t make science, anyway stay away from vaccines and eat more spoiled food

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

lmao, Atushsi Obbuddah (Mr. Buddha Man) vs Cockroach Man from Kamen Rider (Tomezo Tsunokake) in an exploding ring deathmatch, kinda... Not the ringcrew lighting the firecrackers by hand 😂

Give out comics this year! Let's rot brains instead of teeth!

We survived Four Color Fright Fest but spooky season isn't over yet! If you'd like something different to give away on Halloween this year, why not try comics?

After several years of calling anyone they dislike a pedophile or a groomer, the GOP has discovered that it can be done to them too, and the chairman of the Ohio Republican party is not happy about it

FIXATION #2 comes out THIS WEEK, just in time for Halloween. Are you picking it up on Wednesday? I can't wait for everyone to read this one!

Amy "Thunderjam" Chase@amythunderjam.bsky.social

Was sad about not being at NYCC but no one at NYCC has FIXATION #2 in their hands!!! Muahahaha, I can't believe this one is almost out in the wild -- in stores 10/28. Don't miss an absolutely killer penultimate issue!!! 🙏🩸

Matt said it better than I did.

I finished the final Hap & Leonard novel. It was bittersweet and I thought I was okay with it but @joerlansdale.bsky.social 's Author's Note made me cry. We don't really know the authors whose work we love but after 40 years or so they can start to feel like family. Much love to the Lansdales.

Abby's horror books are super creepy and you should buy them.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

These are my strongly held beliefs about comic books that I may add to as I think of new ones. 1. The Punisher is always cooler when he's wearing a bandana. 2. Doctor Doom should never use contractions. 3. Batman would rather fail or die than give up.

First 5 TTRPGs played: 1. D&D 2nd Edition 2. Mage: The Ascension 3: Hunter: The Reckoning 4: Space Wars, an RPG a friend created 5: World Of Darkness LARP, and yes, some people took that shit WAY too seriously.

First 5 TTRPGs played: 1. D&D basic box set (bought with my friend Rob) 2. Gangbusters 3. Traveller (modded to be a Star Wars game) 4. Gamma World 5. Champions We may have played Boot Hill, foggy memory. Rolled up characters twice for Call of Cthulhu but it took so gd long everyone had to go home.

Too true. Between appetizer and entree at the Old Ebbitt Grill two weeks ago, not only was I jacked up by a street gang for a watch and wallet, but then, as I was waiting, bereft, for a dessert menu, my youngest child was taken away by the kitchen staff and transitioned without informing me.

Trump: "In Washington, all the restaurants were closing. People were being held up. They'd walk into a restaurant. Like Jesse James. 'Stand up! Give us all your money.' They're eating dinner at a fancy restaurant. All the restaurants were closing."
