You're never going to be younger than you are now. Stop being afraid to want things. You should want things. How do you start? Write down what you want. Look at that list when you wake up. Look at it again midday. Look at it once more before you go to sleep at night. Put it into action.

The latest from @oddityprodigy.bsky.social, "Where Legends Walk" and anthology of Superhero stories is out today!!! This is amazing collection of writers and wonderful tales. I'm so proud of it, I'm beaming seeing it live. bookshop.org/p/books/wher...

I’m still honored @oddityprodigy.bsky.social was willing to give a piece of my superhero universe a home in their collection Where Legends Walk, out today. “Watered Down” has got everything. Water parks, the Spice Girls, big beautiful guys in bathing suits. This is the best Neptunalia ever!

Also not for nothing but the fine folks at Oddity (@oddityprodigy.bsky.social) have a totally new submission call right now for their TALES OF STEEL AND SORCERY anthology, so yeah write don’t walk!! steelandsorcery.com

Folks when i tell you this analogy rules I am not holding back. Also it is so cool to see ILLEGALS, one of the most political fantasy stories I’ve ever written, get brought to life in such a gorgeous, action-stacked collection. Support the gang and snag yourself a copy! wherelegendswalk.com

Today is the official release date for WHERE LEGENDS WALK, the latest anthology from @oddityprodigy.bsky.social! The book was edited by our hosts Jacob and Nick, and we're so proud of it. Visit the link below for more info and for purchase links at major online book retailers: wherelegendswalk.com

Harley and Ivy issue 2 FOC is 11/17/2025! That's Monday!

Big thanks to Matthew for checking out our latest episode. 🙂 Like we mention during the DR. FATE chat in the first third of the ep, we absolutely encourage everyone to check out DC'S MISFITS OF MAGIC (and go pick up THE OCTOBER GIRL too)! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/782939...

If, like me, you idolize Keith the way HE idolized Kirby (which is to say A LOT), then this is a must listen, featuring my friends JMD and Brian AND a nice little shout out for DC's MISFITS OF MAGIC which I have to say was very much influenced by Keith's work on both Ambush Bug and Justice League.

Pope watch MAN FINDS TAPE challenge starts now

"Batman: Dark Patterns #12 closes the series on a fiery, heartfelt note, balancing noir mystery with mythic heroism..." @cleanlined.bsky.social @danpgwatters.bsky.social #comicsky #comicbooks #comics #NCBD #Batman Read @davidbrooke.bsky.social's review:

This is a great piece that paints a realistic picture of the market now - though I would caution everyone to take industry sales overviews with a grain of salt, as not all (or a majority) of comic shops report sales to the same place/in the same way. sktchd.com/longform/non... @sktchd.bsky.social

We mentioned this book was coming soon in a recent episode, so delighted to see our copy of THE GRIMOIRE OF AGATHA HARKNESS arrive in today's mail! The book is cowritten by Andrea Hannah and fabulous previous pod guest @weredawgz.blacksky.app and looks stunning, so grab a copy today!

THE PERIL OF THE BRUTAL DARK #1 from @christophcondon.bsky.social & @thatjacobphillips.bsky.social - is a thrilling pulp adventure comic akin to Indiana Jones that arrives with a fully formed hero in Ezra Cain. Thrilling neo-noir meets rollicking hidden history. Pre-order with extreme confidence.

Tomorrow!

IT'S RELEASE DAY!! 😁
