NEW YORK KNICKERBOCKERS: THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP

I need the haters to understand how many people live here

Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

Parade. Thursday. Manhattan.

THE CONDUCTOR WAS RIGHT

Subway conductor just now: “Attention passengers, attention passengers. Knicks in 5. 103rd Street. Stay hydrated.” 💙🧡

It hurts so much to see someone else living your dream: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORCc...

Translation for non-sports people: Moonlight has just beaten La La Land for Best Picture.

🚨 NEW on Shelfdust today! 🚨 Supergirl Goes Global in Action Comics #285! @stevewmorris.bsky.social went through the original run of Supergirl stories where she's held back, kept secret, and doesn't get her moment... until the incredible, cathartic issue when she does: shelfdust.com/2026/06/10/s...

Nice try, Plastic Man... #dcu #dccomics

I have no idea why I'm making that face but I'm sure it was justified.

Losing Marjane Satrapi and Anthony Head in the same week is just brutal.

I really wished I'd kept a running log of the funniest things my 4-year-old nephew said during my visit that just ended but I DO remember that he doesn't want to come visit Aunt Jessie in New York because that's where Venom lives. Even though he loves Venom.

One of the good things about a character like Jimmy Olsen is that he doesn't lend himself to traditional hero pose sketches, so any time I sit down to do a commission I get to come up with an untold Jimmy story and illustrate it.

🌈Happy Pride Month🌈

Puddleglum is a depressive muddy mess who drinks too much. And when push comes to shove he can't say he believes in better things. But he DOESN'T say that. He says he prefers to live like the world is better than a tiny dank cave with no hope to ever breathe free air EVEN IF IT ISN'T.

It's been kind of a wild couple of months...

So...I have some news...

Ah, working in books. A great career choice if you want to have the best professional day of your life, and be unable to talk about it for six to eight business months.

Entering my cryptic era (but not for long). 👀

*wearily* They have to work together, but The Fantastic Pho

Anyway I don't even care that that play was bad because I also went around the corner and got tickets to see Rocky Horror again and that's what I'm clinging to. My green light is over at the Frankenstein Place.

I just saw The Great Gatsby on Broadway and...well. Talk about not understanding the assignment. (An assignment we all receive in 10th grade and have very carefully explained to us, no less.)

every woman in these pics looks like the coolest broad around

me when i get shot

every time a publisher's employees unionize, the future of literature gets a little brighter

Hey, I was on a podcast! We talked about the ethics of Project Hail Mary, especially [MASSIVE SPOILER, you know the one], and whether or not Eva Stratt is a supervillain. trustory.fm/superheroeth...

THE PHOTONIC EFFECT releases tomorrow! To tempt you into preordering, let's deep dive into the initial pitch of "Voyager x DS9 x Mass Effect" and how its influences all shake out on the characters and world. THREAD (And the all-important preorder links!) www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ph...

This infuriating attitude shows up on the bookshelves in learning environments, too. We expect girls to empathize with boys, but we kneecap every opportunity to let boys empathize with girls. And look where we are.

"the crew is in excellent shape" in fact, one of them is... STRONGER than EVER. and another... seems to be INCREDIBLY FLEXIBLE... and another...

moby-dick, his eyes enormous: from hell's heart you STAB at moby? for hate's sake you spit your last BREATH at moby? oh! oh! the great shroud of the sea for ahab! the great shroud of the sea rolling on as it rolled five thousand years ago!!!!

I'm not someone who gets worked up about internet tomfoolery on April Fools Day, but I will say: there's a difference between a prank and just lying. Like, you should probably have a joke in there somewhere?

Chag Sameach friends. As this is a time of liberation let me say with my full chest: Free Palestine

My Pride variant cover for New Titans #36 has been released!

I wrote about the 10 Saddest Deaths in Comics over at Book Riot! Come weep with me: bookriot.com/the-10-sadde...

My newsletter has been sent! Somehow I've managed this three months in a row, a record, despite doing this for ten years. Something I’m Good At, Something I’m Bad At: www.beckyallenbooks.com/2026/03/01/s...

Behold, the first origin story of Green Arrow and Speedy, which has aged like mayonnaise on a hot summer's day

Please pay attention. This is a horrible situation and it's going to do tremendous damage. Any fighting back, any help you can give, NOW IS THE FUCKING TIME TO DO IT.

INBOX: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social dropped a 90s sitcom-themed video endorsement of @bradlander.bsky.social, specifically calling out AIPAC's influence:

Reading DC's May 2026 solicits and I see we're making a return to the days of "Do women have bones? We just don't know" style of anatomy on some of these variant covers. Honestly this is just embarrassing.

Struggling with feeling helpless? Want to fix something, but not sure where to start? Here's a thing you can do RIGHT NOW: Help me get the arts and crafts room up and running again at a shelter for women with mental health and substance-use diagnoses: www.thingstogetme.com/2169641a9c163

"For the Man Who Has Everything" completely fails to deliver on its own premise and is grossly sexist besides. (The Black Mercy is an A+ concept that should be used way more, though.)

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it

Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal? Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail… Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you. Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Wild that there was an open lane called "what if we just explain things clearly to people?" and he's the first one to ever fill it
