Maine, have I got a candidate for you. He’s Superman’s pal. They call him “Mr. Action.” And there is a perfectly normal explanation for this.

“I was pleasantly surprised by this poignant and very personal story.” Thank you! Very glad you liked it!

THE WAR WHEEL! I got this classic issue of Blackhawk for just ten bucks today.

OUT TODAY!! Civil War Unmasked #3 featuring Goliath in a story that will hopefully remind folks that Tom Foster is an awesome character worthy of appearing more often! Art by Edgar Salazar and Morry Hollowell!

Thank you Jermaine!

Middle-aged creeper who badly needs a haircut cozies up to local dog, who wonders what she ever did to deserve such treatment.

In my day we watched Frozen in English as God intended smh thanks Obama

“Does [character] have to be Hispanic? I’m afraid people will think she’s related to [only other Hispanic character in the script].” These two characters never cross paths, have nothing in common and live in Manhattan, which apparently contains so few Hispanics they’re all related.

Preview of issue 3!

Hank Pym had lame villains, but great covers.

Why the fuck y’all in the water then

On sale in July! Rocket Raccoon: Rocket Rewind, an oversized special celebrating 50 years of Rocket Raccoon! I got to work with Todd Nauck and Rachelle Rosenberg to team Rocket with Hank Pym for a size-changing mini-epic called “The Fight in the Raccoon!” Don’t miss it!

Poor Johnny Guitar. Art by the great Rafa Sandoval, Roger Bonet, and Edgar Delgado. Letters by Joe Caramagna. Edits by Jeanine Schaefer and Bill Rosemann.

Wow, a week after its release, Civil War Unmasked #2 was the #29 selling book on the comics charts! Not too bad for a week-old book! I’m hoping that’s an indication of positive word of mouth. Thanks to everyone who’s picked it up and recommended it to others!

Pic 1 is the original art to Marvel’s Godzilla #10 (1978) by Herb Trimpe. 2 is the note the art dealer sent Ruth when she bought it for me. If a girl buys you Trimpe Godzilla art you marry her. December is our 25th anniversary. All you people out there looking for love? Godzilla is the answer.

I have learned that, despite being basically the same thing, pee pads for humans are cheaper than pee pads for dogs. I assume this is because people like their dogs better than their incontinent elderly parents. Which is fair. But I’m buying the human pee pads for my dog.

CIVIL WAR UNMASKED #2 is out NOW! Don’t miss the inside story of Spider-Man’s decision to reveal his identity to the world! If you picked it up, let me know what you thought!

Thanks for the very kind review!

Read a preview of Civil War: Unmasked #2 from Marvel Comics, written by Christos Gage with art by Edgar Salazar.

Function in society

Out Wednesday: Civil War Unmasked #2! You want Pete and MJ together? I got that for you right here!

Wait, did they not bring back Rob Morgan as Turk in the new Daredevil show? Huh. He was so good. It’s not like he needs the work, it seems like he’s in everything - and he deserves it - but he really brought a lot to the Netflix one, and the other shows too.

July!

Out next Wednesday!

When the welcome mat is no longer welcome.

Dog people! Our German Shepherd has learned not to be mouthy/bite us, which is great. But it’s so clear she desperately wants to that I feel bad. Is this weird? Am I denying her a natural behavior, like when people declaw cats? This is what happens when you get your first dog in your fifties.

I swear Alan Moore and Jacen Burrows did a comic where they built this exact structure and then Cthulhu showed up

Hey, Coca-Cola, I may not have saved myself for marriage but this is uncalled for.

I will be on the legendary Word Balloon podcast with my fellow Greek John Siuntres at 8pm tonight (Weds. 5/27/26) discussing Civil War Unmasked and any number of other nerdy topics! Check it out here: www.youtube.com/live/mrf7GZ9...

Don’t just take my word for it about Battleworld, check out this lovely 9/10 review!

OUT TODAY!! The trade paperback collection of the acclaimed BATTLEWORLD by me, Marcus To, Rachelle Rosenberg and Travis Lanham! And yes, the footnotes/text pages are included, but they’re all after the story, so look for them there. Grab it while it’s hot!

Look at my Man-Thing LOOK AT IT

Remembering those who gave their lives, and those who had to go on without them.

Out Wednesday! The BATTLEWORLD trade paperback! I still can’t believe I got to put all these awesome, crazy characters in one book…with art by Marcus To and Rachelle Rosenberg! Plus, is that a bit of inter-reality romance in the middle panel? A gentleman never tells! Decide for yourself in 3 days!

Try to imagine my happiness for the brief moment I thought this was Swarm

Little preview of CIVIL WAR UNMASKED #2, out soon. If you like romance, Peter Parker teaching, the Iron Spider costume, Hydro-Man or the Ringer, this one’s for you! Reserve your copy now!

Awesome catching up with my amazing friend @danslott.bsky.social if all too briefly! Don’t miss his new Spectacular Spider-Man #1 with stunning art by my Battleworld collaborator @marcusto.bsky.social and the legend Marcos Martin! I loved it and so will you!

I just keep telling myself that someday I’ll be retired and have time to just look at comics all day

Visit our friend @christosgage.bsky.social right here at Acme Comics 2150 Lawndale Drive here in Greensboro NC for Civil War Unmasked 1 Meet & Greet! See you between Noon and 5PM!

I want to thank everyone for the wonderful response to CIVIL WAR UNMASKED #1! The entire team worked very hard on it so I’m thrilled people are liking it. It only gets better from here, with an emotional Spidey story next issue, then Goliath, Tigra and Captain America!

This is giving strong “me in a general meeting” energy

I’ve seen odd posts about how in this comic I’m trying to whitewash oppression/human rights violations. Folks, I’m riffing on a line in a one-shot I wrote 20 years ago where Tony asked Steve if he’d heard of Project Wideawake. I’m Occam’s Nerd. The nerdiest explanation is always the truth.

@stevendeknight.bsky.social So trying not to be too loose with spoilers, and I haven't seen it, but apparently the DD finale set up a scenario next season where they can use your best line from our writer's room. The one that begins with "Objection, your honor! Counsel is using..." 😈

Preview of issue 2!

Anyone else on the concluding issue of a storyline and not able to fit everything into the number of pages available even though they should know better after doing this for literally the last TWENTY YEARS? Yeah, me neither.

Very kind review, thank you!

OUT TODAY! Don’t miss CIVIL WAR UNMASKED #1 in stores as we speak! And while you’re there add issue 2 to your pull list for an in-depth look at pre-Mephisto Spider-Man making the biggest decision of his life!!
