Without stating your age, post a movie that released when you turned 18.

Very good read on how best to revitalize Doctor Who. At the risk of over-simplifying, largely boils down to restarting as Nu Who did, but making sure to include some classic elements. As a fan of the show during both time periods (my adolescence and middle-age), that has the right ring to me.

Want to learn more about the ethics of DC's Dream Girls? comicphilosophy.com/a1h2 Dreamer and Galaxy are two of the best new characters in the DCU, and are front-lining this year's outstanding Pride event series. Created with great care by @nicoleamaines.bsky.social and @planetx.bsky.social

Reupping the compilation of all the kind things comics creator have said about my site here: comicphilosophy.com/w6cg I truly appreciate everything you do to make this medium so dynamic and rewarding. A rich treasure-trove of moral philosophy!

Just received my original art by the great @casparw.bsky.social from issue #1 of The Power Fantasy! Amazed any of these were left. Happy to snag this page. Scene is so meaningful between Etienne and Valentina, so much captured in subtle expression shifts. kineticcollectibles.com/collections/...

The second half of my summer wardrobe has arrived! Thanks as always to the talented Pablo Alcalde (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) for the outstanding art for my site. comicphilosophy.com

If Mark Russell is writing it, I'm buying it! Just backed his latest ...

Yourself, but as a cartoon.

Touching, funny, zanny and frenetic - just how you would expect the first arc of #fmlcomix to end! So many threads expertly pulled together, including this unexpected nod to toxic fandom. Learn more about the philosophy behind this outstanding Eisner-nominated series here: comicphilosophy.com/mg44

Happy first day of Pride Month from comicphilosophy.com With artwork from the talented Pablo Alcalde (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) in celebration of Pride Month. Listening and learning to be a better ally.

Great read on GenAI from Amnesty International, taking a supply chain lens and focusing on how current data harvesting practices violate international human rights law. None of this was inevitable - certainly not the design choices made by the current general GenAI companies.

Keeping the Haweye theme, from Greg Land and Mark Russell:

The Power Fantasy's explosive third arc - "The End of History" -is deconstructa-ed (sorry, couldn't resist) here: comicphilosophy.com/2wde Valentina is a brilliant riff on both the saviour and Superman themes in comics. An incredible tour-de-force by @kierongillen.bsky.social @casparw.bsky.social

In light of the Eisner 2026 noms, here is a quick reading list for newcomers to my Comic Philosophy site: comicphilosophy.com/ud43 Several nominees in key categories have been profiled there, including The Power Fantasy, Absolute Wonder Woman, FML comix, and Jeff the Land Shark. Great reads all!

Not a great performance for Shatner, but such a great movie. Judgment at Nuremberg, 1961

Pablo (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) has had a little fun with my request to draw comicphilosophy.com characters relaxing at the local comics store. Can you figure out what they are all reading? My guesses follow ... 1/2

Pablo Alcalde pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com has done it again! I wanted an image showing my comicphilosophy.com cast of characters enjoying new comic book day, and Pablo nailed it as always. I love how he drew Thomas Aquinas with a think tome, but Conficius clearly enjoys a good floppy. 😆

Best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only

Hmmm, maybe Ayn Rand and the Law of Identity, Ludwig Wittgenstein's famous fly-in-a-bottle analogy of philosophers trapped in their own thinking, and of course Friedrich Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch in appropriate Superman garb! Eagerly awaiting the third volume of ACTION PHILOSOPHERS!

Curious about the changing ethics of Superman over the decades? I've tried to capture the main shifts in my Superman Ethics comics overview: comicphilosophy.com/mat4 Highlighting some great modern stories written by @joshuawilliamson.bsky.social @ssnyder1835.bsky.social and @manruss.bsky.social

Well worth it at any price, I never miss an issue.

Comic Philosophy is one year old today! 🥳 You can read my thoughts about that here: comicphilosophy.com/opoz It's been a fun ride - thanks to all the amazing work of comics creators. And all the support and words of encouragement I've received from the community, you are the best! #NoAI

And here's the final multiverse representation by Pablo Alcade pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com I really can't say enough positive things about Pablo's work. He's a pleasure to deal with, super creative and always responsive. He is available for commissions - highly recommended for your projects!

Pablo (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) continues his outstanding work coming up with creative images for ComicPhilosophy.com This one depicts the multiverse, with all the variants of the two superheroes he has created for me. I particularly like the little guy in the background, on the far right!

I'll be backing this one for sure! Any chance a fourth series of Second Coming is in the works? 🙏🙏🙏

The first two volumes were a fun and informative read, I've just backed this third one!

Final full color Trolley Problem by pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com for my site. I love all of Pablo's flourishes (like people filming with their phones!). FYI, @manruss.bsky.social did a great job exploring TP in his Superman: Space Age series with @allredmd.bsky.social See: comicphilosophy.com/hx3l

Pablo (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) really captured a dynamic scene for the Trolley Problem! comicphilosophy.com/hx3l I love the classic half-toning-like shading he has applied for the bystanders (and birds!). Such a fun way to show how superheroes don't like zero-sum, no-win moral scenarios!

Latest sketch from the outstanding Pablo Alcalde pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com for Comic Philosophy. This is for my discussion of the Trolley Problem thought experiment: comicphilosophy.com/hx3l As I explain on my Ethics 101, superheroes don't typically accept zero-sum, no-win scenarios! Coming soon.

Battleworld by @christosgage.bsky.social and Marcus To is a great modern reframing of the original Secret Wars concept: comicphilosophy.com/index.php/20... Illustrates virtue ethics (care ethics), redemption, suffering and identity, in contrast to secret wars' nihilism, striving, and sacrifice.

I'm so glad I asked Pablo for a color version of this care ethics concept art. Not only do I love the heroine's hair, but the sparkly transporter effects give the impression the philosophers and comic creators are "creating" her out of thin air! Art by Pablo Alcalde pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com

Concept art depicting care ethics by the outstanding Pablo Alcalde pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com You can learn more about this modern form of virtue ethics on my Ethics 101 page: comicphilosophy.com/index.php/et... Pablo again exceeded my expectations for this piece, see my prompt below.

More concept art for comicphilosophy.com is coming soon. Here is another sketch from comics artist Pablo Alcalde pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com Can you guess what the theme is for this one?

I have so enjoyed working with Pablo Alcade (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com) on images for my comicphilosophy.com site. This one shows the progression of philosophical thought from ancient times through to modern superheroes! The colors were all his idea, and I loved how he matched them to my site.

I've been doing small art commissions for comicphilosophy.com lately, and it is great to have found an artist that so gets what I'm trying to do with the site. I provided historical references for the philosophers for this image, but the rest is all Pablo Alcade (pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com)!

I am thrilled to announce a collaboration with an outstanding artist for original art for comicphilosophy.com Pablo Alcade is contributing some amazing work for the site. Full details coming soon ... but here's a small tease. pabloalcaldef.wordpress.com

Expanded my Glossary page to list philosophers and comics writers, along with philosophical terms, linked in my posts. Updated with every new post, making it easy to find your favorites: comicphilosophy.com/index.php/20... Not a contest, but @kierongillen.bsky.social has the most entries so far! :)

Lots of great comics in this bundle.

You don't need to read Doctor Strange of Asgard to appreciate the new series that just launched. But it shows interesting insights into the moral core and ethics of the good doctor: comicphilosophy.com/index.php/20... Kudos to @dereklandy.bsky.social, Carlos Magna, Espen Grundetjern, and Cory Petit

The Power Fantasy is simply one of the best explorations of moral philosophy (aka normative ethics) in comics. Check out my ethics primer and introduction to the series: comicphilosophy.com/index.php/20... Kudos to @kierongillen.bsky.social and @casparw.bsky.social for this outstanding series!

My Prisoner print came today. Great art by @briannaduggan.bsky.social Looking forward to framing it!
