We've started a new @sequentialscholars.bsky.social unit on trans representation in manga! #ComicsStudies #Manga

Had a great time talking to the @mutantstudies101.bsky.social podcast about the one & only She-Hulk, who is not a mutant but is an ally re: constitutional rights and also sexiness. Put it in your ears wherever you get your podcasts. #SheHulk #ComicsStudies #SuperSex open.spotify.com/episode/23Mb...

BRING HIM BACK #MacysParade

Pleased to receive a copy of this book I blurbed a while ago! Killer Bodies: The Rise & Fall of 'Bad Girl' Comics by Joseph Crawford from @rutgersupress.bsky.social! #ComicsStudies

Podcast time!

Because we are sophisticated modern aesthetes, me & my best boy @adamreck.bsky.social went to an art gallery to appreciate Peter Gallagher's HEATHCLIFF. In this article: Ham helmets! Garbage Ape!! Secret Heathcliff lore!!! #Heathcliff #ART #HAM

I'm at this right now and Peter Gallagher just said "Heathcliff is definitely a New Jersey cat"

Hooked up a record player for the first time in a long time. Only have like 10 records left in my collection after too many moves but there's a few gooduns.

The @comicsxf.com team's chat about what's not working and why with the X-Men's latest dystopian crossover very much underscored why I haven't been reading it, including: "A sharper, tighter focus on something that actually matters and tracks could have done this event a world of good." #XMen

Our unit of threads on Junji Ito's "Frankenstein" is over but not forgotten! Here's a snapshot of what we covered, starting with: An Introduction to Junji Ito’s “Frankenstein." 1/5 #Frankenstein #ComicsStudies #JunjiIto bsky.app/profile/sequ...

What are your top 5 movie genres? Mine are: -suave gentleman grifter -romance makes adventure -adventure makes romance -fencing occurs -loveable monster

I think about this about once a month

I'm watching the Grey Cup on American TV and it's very disorienting to have the Canadian broadcast punctuated with American commercials, like if I don't see 300 ads for Tim Hortons and grocery stores that only exist in Western Canada am I even watching the Grey Cup

Our latest spotlights Ryan Carey's @solrad.bsky.social review of Junji Ito's Frankenstein. #ComicsStudies #Frankenstein #JunjiIto

Me, to Adam: which streaming service has all those bad old TV shows that I like Anyway now I'm watching Kojak

Had to unexpectedly get a new (used) car recently but to assuage the pain of that, I also got new bumper stickers

Our latest for @sequentialscholars.bsky.social talks "haptic visuality" in Junji Ito's Frankenstein! #ComicsStudies #Frankenstein #JunjiIto

I just learned that the United States doesn't have Aero bars? Then, while trying to process this mind-boggling fact, I asked Adam, "so what bubble chocolate do you have? Mirage? Bubbly?" Only to discover he's never heard of those because they also don't exist in the US?? What???

Our latest for @sequentialscholars.bsky.social talks Frankenstein+ seven theses of monstrosity! #ComicsStudies #MonsterStudies #Frankenstein

Google just straight up predicting the future now (badly, at this point!)

For our next (spooky!) cluster of threads, we'll be focusing on none other than Japanese horror master Junji Ito's adaptation of "Frankenstein"! #Frankenstein #JunjiIto #SpookySeason #ComicsStudies

I just watched Practical Magic for the first time and I think people who enjoy this very nonsense movie are simply ensorcelled by Nicole Kidman's Whole Thing and you know what, fair

Ah the sweet sweet smell of Bruce Wayne's butt

In which I recall the Batman's penis controversy of 2019 #ComicsStudies

Mothman Prophecies is a Christmas movie

In my life, I'm quite sure I've watched more hours of Ken Burns' "Baseball" than actual baseball but that means I remember that "Baseball" ends with the Blue Jays winning the 1993 World Series. Yet somehow, baseball returned (to my consciousness, now that Canada is back in the World Series). #GoJays

New keyboard friend 💙

Our latest over at @sequentialscholars.bsky.social explores the tragic backstory trope in Demon Slayer! #DemonSlayer #ComicsStudies

X-Men has some of the greatest female characters in comics but the way they're always regressing those characters to some of their worst eras because apparently guys like 'em best that way sure is something

Dan and I tried to see as much as we could in two days. Here's our report on all things #NYCC 2025

So in the AngelSoft toilet paper ad, are the babies in heaven (who are baby ghosts, I guess?) pitching someone (God?) a new product or trying to explain a pre-existing product and also why does God make baby ghosts work adult ad agency jobs, is this actually hell

Our latest explores modern manga masculinity in Demon Slayer! #DemonSlayer #ComicsStudies

Currently on Fifth Avenue trying to finger comb pigeon poop out of my hair, typical New York morning

I'll be at #NYCC for one day and one day only and that day is tomorrow (Thursday) Say hi or if you want a copy of Supersex, drop me a dm!
