This week on the site @kateodo.bsky.social took on Young Justice, the ur-text for a new generation of comic book readers: shelfdust.com/2025/10/01/y...

wow! what a joy to write abt my favorite comic and my favorite sport SIMULTANEOUSLY for @shelfdust.bsky.social !!! ever grateful to steve for putting up w me and for being the first person I pitched post-screenrant

Oh, a new Valnet sucks article. Don't tease me with a good time (the article is worth reading) danielcruse.substack.com/p/the-things...

come for the deft argument for density, stay for a breakdown of Gorilla CNN

“What’s the difference between a crazy board and a sociogram?” @kateodo.bsky.social brings out the charts and string for Jimmy Olsen issue 4 - it sure is some content: shelfdust.com/2024/10/02/s...

1/ Sharing my story with the NYTimes was not an easy decision. My north star goal is always liberation and a free Palestine. That led me to decide to participate in this article despite my concerns. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/m...

This week, the Seattle Mariners released a video for Pride. I was expecting cheesy corporate blandness. Instead, the video was thoughtful and well considered. Here's what the ‪@mariners.com‬ got right with their celebration of Pride. thefanfiles.com/articles/mariners-pride-video-2025

an all-timer Nancy right here folks

also making my tri-monthly attempt to embrace bluesky, it'll totally stick this time. I miss hearing what people are up to!!! instagram is just not the same

in the wake of being laid off from screenrant (I'M FREE), I'm ready to make my rip-roaring return to weird and wacky comics writing. STAY TUNED I'M EXCITED relatedly: if you know or hear abt any job opps that might suit me, a book and comics lover with 10-years experience, think of me, won't you?

A poem for my last day working at the writing center for the semester (by Joseph Fasano)

abolish grading bc it’s pedagogically unsound but also bc I don’t want to do it

hi bsky. I think I would be more likely to use this app if the main feed “remembered my place” and I could scroll up to read new posts since I last opened the app. (yes, like twitter, sue me.) is there some setting I can make work for me?

Another wonderful piece from Shelfdust's series of monthly essays looking at the Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen mini series one issue at a time. This month, @kateodo.bsky.social writes about issue 4, in which Lois Lane goes to Gotham to rescue Jimmy, who is turning into a prize asshole.

not for nothing, but I also have a poem, “The World’s More Full of Weeping,” in the new issue of bennington review! name me another poem that co-stars aquaman and yeats, I dare you all my gratitude to the editors 💕

hey look! I took some bits and gags way too seriously! and had a lot of fun doing it! shelfdust rules. forever grateful steve invited me to participated in this genuinely illuminating series. yay comics!

This week on Shelfdust: @kateodo.bsky.social is BACK

anyway here’s a thread of stuff I’ve liked lately, non exhaustive, just pulled from the last 6mos of my camera roll

what if… kate used bluesky more. what then huh. huh???? (hi I’m still here)

genuinely one of my favorite things I’ve written in the last few years, poems and all, and I’m very grateful to steve and shelfdust for being SUCH a great home for nuanced and stylized comics writing !!!

With “Wolfwood” Trigun Maximum Finds Grace in Death and a Moment of Quiet, by @jseanharrison.bsky.social: shelfdust.com/2023/02/08/w...

I had to delete the original version of that poem post bc I included william blake’s art (ya girl loves an ekphrasis), but ofc eve is pure nakey so all the images got censored. anyway here is the “”nsfw”” blake art along with the million dollar debut of batgirl herself! see what I mean?

bluesky I wrote a poem abt batgirl and william blake and john milton and girlhood and the very nature of creation, and pleiades was kind enough to publish it. maybe you will dig it too?

I was lucky enough to speak with @gwillow.me at NYCC about THE HUNGER AND THE DUSK, high fantasy, the essential stakes of romance, and much more. re-listening to this audio was such a treat, seriously. pick up the new issue this week from IDW! you know I will!

bluesky I need to use you more but I MUST share this great moment/teaser from my NYCC interview with @gwillow.me, which will hopefully be up on screen rant early this week. wish you could hear the actual laughter. comics!!! they’re good actually

When I see someone say, “There’d be no MCU without Jack Kirby.” I think, don’t blame him. It’s not his fault.

I’ve posted this everywhere else, so why not here, too: I have two poems in the new issue of DIAGRAM, this one after the great norm breyfogle. is there a better batman and robin cover? thediagram.com/23_4/odonogh...

I know this place is better in literally every way but man after like 13 years the twitter habit is truly difficult to kick

Trying to get more comfortable with the idea of posting new stuff here, so here's some variant covers- World's Finest: Teen Titans #4 (ft. Kid Flash), and Green Lantern #4.

one day I will write my magnum opus about the original young justice series — what makes it good, but also why it’s such a staple in the “gays and girlies” part of comics fandom (aka tumblr) — but for now I will simply SCREAMMMM abt YJ getting an omnibus series, FINALLY

You made it this far, folks, so here's Centaur Lois Lane
