fuck these things

This mag is especially stacked: a 20 page Seiichi Hayashi joint, Keizo Miyanishi and Mark Beyer in Japanese

Here are some incredible Fumiko Takano pages from 棒がいっぽん ('One Stick' according to GT [it's the lower one]) which collects stories from 1987 to 1994.

Post a black and white panel and tell us who drew it. This one is El Cubri (artist: Pedro Arjona)

Beautiful video youtu.be/U4UFAejSQFA?...

It's shocking just how much big 2 comics poach artists from nations with weak(er) industries, and how this has been standard industry practice since DC employed all those Filipino guys in the '70s. I'd wager 70% of the artists working on Marvel/DC books at the moment are Italian or Spanish

Think it's pretty much just From Hell unfortunately

maybe it's just the ascetic religious separatism in my upbringing talking, but the idea that all cultural production is doomed because a bunch of megacorps are sunsetting the late 20th century model of funding and distribution feels premature. i'm not even a big DIY guy but: people will make art.

Also, and I say this as much or more on Aline's behalf, 'my ex-wife should've taken more advice from me' is an awfully weird way of saying 'my beloved wife of 40-plus years died of pancreatic cancer weeks after being diagnosed, inflaming my previous hatred of the medical profession'

"ai" art is like all of the fidelity in the surface rendering with none of the awareness or intent that turns it into an image that makes directional aesthetic sense. the only kind of art that isn't plagiarism

Great song that just completely falls apart at the halfway point. Starts fantastic ("those carats more like parsnips"), but Feng so obviously runs out of bar ideas so everything near the end is bottom of the barrel, e.g. "I'm an Asian kid, so my skin is yellow like Marge's" youtu.be/XLCXE4bbJHE?...

Holy fuckkkkk (a translation of Andrea Pazienza's autobio about his drug addiction, Pompeo, being teased by NYRC)

Nabiel Kanan, 1994

I was thinking recently about how the British invasion writers extrapolated on the tradition of bold text in American superhero comics: Morrison uses it it to add mythic gravitas, but Peter Milligan's use of it gives his work a really specific cadence I love. If anything, I think its underutilised

“I Thought I Heard Your Voice Just Then” is a new eight-page comic drawn by @jlaguff.bsky.social and written by myself. You can read it below or purchase it on a pay-what-you-want basis on Itch.io (which I recommend, Bluesky compression being what it is): hagaipalevsky.itch.io/thoughtiheard (1/2)

I need more people to read “Education” by John Hankiewicz, we need to talk about this book and you don’t know it

This page always annoyed me why is the brush so big

'Le Pont du Labastide' (1905) is one of Henri Martin’s final divisionist paintings, a composition of monumental grandeur. What I admire about this work is that he does not sacrifice his subject matter in favour of balanced design or chromatic richness; it's a scene as he saw it.

not having a great time right now but I know that’s going to pass. 2020 is gonna be my year

Great article

Wrote about contemporary trends in pop metaphysics supplanting spirituality and our subsequent succumbing to depression. Also comic books

Nobody has, will, or can read even 1% of the greatest literature ever written. Every canon is incomplete, every library is only a fragment, even the most knowledgeable reader is a blind mouse in an open field. Every encounter is a miracle.

I sincerely think this is the best music video of all time

RIP D'Angelo (1974-2025) 🕊️😔

Remember when he was "just" the best, sexiest neo-soul guy with the most fun songs of that nature? They're still the most fun songs of that nature! Goddammit!

RIP D'Angelo man what the fuck youtu.be/It2s36sL4aM?...
