"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

We could be 5 to 10 years from toothpaste that can regrow tooth enamel. The scales are beginning to tip in favor of Mars once sustaining life. We’ll potentially know for sure by 2040. The blue macaw is up to 160 individuals from an all-time low of 7, and confirmed to be breeding in the wild.

My cartoon for this week’s @guardian books. p.s. this week I am on a USA/Canada tour with my new book. Details and preorder links at www.tomgauld.com

Who is a boosted babe???? Me! I am a boosted babe!!!!!!

Got distracted to note this, but my first published Star Wars writing came out 30 years ago last month. This was my first rodeo.

Heading out soon to see this in a theater.

I’d been crowposting a lot lately but make no mistake: tom servo is here too

average black experience this week:

In response to @thelouvreof.bsky.social's request for bangers, I offer this, my most popular post by a long shot:

I watched EVIL DEAD 2 for probably the millionth time last night, happy to report it still completely rules and is an absolute joy to watch

Radioactive accident in a lab

Behind the scenes on the complicated sets of #StarTrek DS9's "Trials and Tribble-ations."

Thunderbolts: remains a great watch the second time round. A superhero movie where the heroes do actual superhero shit *and* save the day through the power of friendship? Good stuff.

SLEEP TIGHT

Believe the hype about Mexican candy, by the way. I got handed something this week that I still have no idea what it is but it’s fucking delicious, it claims to be street corn flavored but I don’t know what the fuck this thing is all I know is it hurts and I love it

Dan Gilroy! Nice going. :)

I'll get you Eh Steve, if it's the last thing I doooooooooo!

Shout out to Ohayo-Con in Ohio (ha ha get it) and their 24-hour Artists Alley, a singular experience and absolutely cursed as fuck

The only Kirk I should ever have Encyclopedic knowledge of is the one who captains a big ol spaceship.

THE BATMAN @mattreevesla.bsky.social

Important: ear spots

Greg Smallwood joins us on Detective Comics! Greg will be doing a full series of wraparound variant covers for our upcoming arc, “The Courage that Kills.” LOOK 👀

Walking around downtown Guadalajara has inspired no less than three attempts by myself to spin up my “we deserve beautiful things“ rant as we observe the effortlessly beautiful architecture and compare it to Chicago’s fondness for glass boxes

Here we go again

Today is the birthday of Clayton Moore (Sept. 14, 1914-Dec. 28, 1999), most remembered for playing the Lone Ranger.

Winky watching me fuck up a drawing.

“Have you tried batting it around?” - My cat as IT support.

Doing hot rod shit

in this house, we absolutely kirk-shame

Girl I’m wheezing These people getting mad at me talking about “[the deceased] was loved by millions. Get out of your echo chamber!” Im literally an adult with a job. Also I am black. *YOU* get out of *YOUR* echo chamber.

Any you better believe I rewarded myself with post-vaccine snacks Turning replies off bc I will not be reading words from candy corn haters!!!!!

“Meanwhile, on Mongo…”

I wanted to go real hard on pushing the Kickstarter on its last three days but I just got back from a 3 day hiking/camping trip and my body is paying for the hubris of deciding to sprint downhill. Please support us as we make a puppet musical!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/shi...

Give me my destiel statues!!!!!!! Multiple destiel statues!!!!!!

Anime has messed us up as a culture bc people really be thinkin that when 2 of your enemies are fighting, if one is willing to allow you to fight w them that they are suddenly your friend. No baby, they are happy to use you then either stab you in the back or let you die.

I have been working with Dark Horse for 34 years. Time sure does fly.

I’ve recently gotten a younger friend fully obsessed with 70s movies, he’s fully Matthaupilled now

Some of my Chahoua geckos

Taking all the rye chips out of the party snack bag, call that being a Chex pest

Anyway, here’s a baby Phelsuma grandis I hatched this week

A friend of mine has been talking all year about how once the regime kicked out all the immigrants, they'd realize how much damage it did to the country and start canceling passports to force Americans abroad to come home to make up the difference. I thought it he was being a conspiracy theorist.

This may sound like glazing, but honestly, Pixelatl feels like the best kept secret going, right now. It’s the kind of con San Diego used to be, where yes, there’s a commercial aspect, but also pros get together and just do business and make connections that will define the rest of their careers.

Yet again Hakeem Jeffries comes thru with the political instincts of a wet noodle

#LongLivetheLegion

Spätz in da sun

Absolute bare minimum, a day later, while not acknowledging the scale of the problem, Musk's involvement, nor Labour's own culpability. You were defending the flag fuckers mere days ago.

Bruce’s revenge begins in ABSOLUTE BATMAN 13. FINAL ORDERS are due TOMORROW!! (Monday 9/15) So make sure you order by the time your comic shop closes tomorrow so you won’t miss out if it sells out like the other issues so far have !

Good morning to you too, Lana

I am genuinely and violently the opposite of happy to see how long it takes for people's faces to get eaten by this leopard. And sad and scared at the potential for all the collateral casualties in the meantime.

I got the new flu and covid vaccines yesterday, and my arm's sore, the rest of me also but not as much. Ann got the covid shot this morning and is so sore she might break into pieces at any moment. Life in this modern world.

We must all look into our own souls and make sure we are not being this meme, please I beg 🥲🥲🥲

Today's Style

The best of all the comic-related paperback books I've posted tonight.

Some sort of label to differentiate a football post from a civilizational collapse post. 🤔

It’s bc she knows an icon when she sees one

Oh holy shit this is awesome

On my honeymoon I did find a very battered copy of von Junzt's Das Verichteraraberbuch in Hay-on-Wye, it's true, and I was repeatedly warned not to listen to the radio in Pontypool, and I did verify that there is such a thing as the "Gwbert Look." So, yeah, can vouch for this paper.

We’re leaving Mexico tomorrow afternoon, very excited to get home to the block of sushi grade tuna in my freezer

I don’t know anyone who writes comics in screenplay format. I’m sure someone does. But it’s not the best from for artists, I would think.

The people in your phone are real people.

People's words do not have the same weight as their actions, especially repeated actions/patterns of behavior. Let's bring back that scorpion and frog/fox fable and tack that up to our vision boards, yeah?

The Shadow magazine, cover dated September 15, 1939. This issue featured the first appearance of the Shadow’s archenemy, Shiwan Khan. Cover art by Graves Gladney. And yeah, it leaned heavily into the “Yellow Peril” trope still common in the early to mid 20th century.

I am beginning to see a trend that I don’t like Some people are printing manga on slick/coated paper. Please don’t. I have yet to see the day that black and white comics look preferable on shiny paper. In my experience, black and white linework has always looked better on matte paper

Ricky Gervais showing up in Dog Man is like having a nice meal, only for a stray hair to appear on your next forkful.

Alicia Vikander's best role since Ex Machina

Full script, panel-by-panel.

so @thelouvreof.bsky.social asked for our bangers and I went to go look and this is my bangerest post on here which feels accurate for THE digital elder millennial sad bar lmao

Oh no, The Algorithm has figured out my vibe

Today's Pogo paperback.

The toddler has shut themself inside their laundry hamper and informed us that it is a bagel shop. @teaberryblue.net

three more days to get rad props from the film! they will NOT be offered after the KS ends!

The Spirit from September 14, 1941. Art by Will Eisner & letters by Sam Rosen.

Genuinely one of my favorite images on the internet

Is there any finer treat in this world than a thing of mozzarella with a bit of cured meat wrapped around it

Today’s under $10 haul: two 1940s scifi paperbacks and an enormous avocado.

This one is more for my British followers
