Happy birthday to writer @ronmarz.bsky.social! Celebrate his latest spin around the sun by brunching with us on an episode of Eating the Fantastic, where you'll learn why it was better he broke in first at "collegial" Marvel rather than "corporate" DC — and more. www.scottedelman.com/2023/01/13/r...

Tonight.

Save the Date: Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas! 🎄 Experience the magic of the village Norman Rockwell made famous on Sunday, December 7, from 12 –2 pm. Stroll the festive streets, stop by the Museum’s pop-up shop, and view the original painting that inspired it all.

If you think a government controlled by Trump will release anything truly damaging to Trump, you are painfully naive.

Part 4: In the spirt of my upcoming talk with @ronmarz.bsky.social here are some old GREEN LANTERN drawings. This is the time capsule of the lot. '95/6 was filled with young men quoting the hot new cartoon, SOUTH PARK— ad nauseam. In my head, Kyle was one of those guys.

Had an excellent day at Twin Tiers Comic Con yesterday; they even sent me home with this banner. Great time seeing pals @bartsearsart.bsky.social, Mike McKone, and @popmyth.bsky.social. Many thanks to the promoters and fans.

i think vance is only interesting inasmuch as he extremely unprincipled and thus a good guide to where the GOP is going (gift link)

Part 2: In the spirt of my upcoming talk with @ronmarz.bsky.social I'm sharing some old GREEN LANTERN drawings. A dash of action. these were all on one page of copy paper, but I broke them up here. "Now" me wants to break out the tracing paper and restructure the entire thing.

I, a professional maker-upper of things, could not make this up.

Glad to see things are going well. Totally normal.

Inker Drew Hennessy has passed away. He ws from my hometown. I knew him since he was 14 and I was 17. Some remembrances by those who knew him, including me, here: perkyposts.blogspot.com/2025/11/drew...

Four-days out from my talk with @ronmarz.bsky.social I wanted to share some drawings I did for consideration to take up pencilling duties at the tail-end of Ron's run or GREEN LANTERN. Hard to look at thirty year-old test drawings and not cringe, but I admire the youthful ambition.

Part 2: In honor of my upcoming talk with @ronmarz.bsky.social I wanted to share some old GREEN LANTERN drawings. A lot of artists at the time were inspired by the BIG steps Mike Mignola was taking in the first few years of Hellboy, and I tried to incorporate big chunky blacks into my style.

One day only! @ronmarz.bsky.social will be the the Big Apple Comic Con in New York City Sat., Nov. 22! Get you there! Tix and info: bigapplecc.com

Tonight! We could have some more events in the future, but for now, this is the only way to get a copy of the comic.

NYT had details of Trump's engagement with Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking and *hid it for him*, at the same time it was crucifying Clinton as untrustworthy due to her document retention & security.

Hear me out: maybe having a dim 8-year-old pretending to be President is a bad idea.

Comics, coffee vodka, and Albany ghost stories blend in "Awakened Spirits," the new comic from Albany Distilling Co.'s John Curtin and writer Ron Marz. (I've read it, and unlike most "promotional comic" projects, it's really good - esp. if you're interested in local lore.) Read all about it here:

Unqualified, ill-trained, rage-a-holic ICE agents out here just shooting people in the streets, and we collectively don't seem to be willing to do anything about it.

Going to the game tomorrow.

Turns out it's actually a third printing.

My Senator is, as ever, completely useless.
