These Mets have an entirely new team and still don't want to score.

Local folks feel empathy for area man who actually did nothing wrong. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

My younger brother (17) came with me to ECCC and he loves Chainsaw Man and Absolute Batman. But he spent most of the time at the con looking for Magic cards and playing in the ECCC tournaments. He even bought card proxies at Artist Alley. Likes/reads comics, not interested in the fandom

I remember arguing with John Byrne in the 2000s when he and his fans opined that girls probably don't read comics because their brains are structured so they can't process the information. It's very exciting to learn that genetics have changed and now boys have this mental disability instead.

Y'all probably wondering, like me, who this Wong Kim Ark everyone is talking about re the Supremes and 14th Amendment. The decision goes all the way back to 1898. exhibits.stanford.edu/riseup/featu...

Seriously, what is going on with the boys? Is this an outlier or something even stranger?

I am SO excited to announce that the Kickstarter campaign for The Comics Staple, a monthly zine about comics, is live. Go make your pledges now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tif...

This was always America’s fate.

Since Aughts nostalgia is happening, the time has come to ask....whatever happened to the Klaxons? A little ahead of their time maybe.

At C2E2 this year I was at the end of our row, and about every 10 minutes I would hear someone very quietly say my name. I'd look up, and it would never be someone talking to me, it was always someone just reading it off my banner, usually pointing it out to their child who is also named Zander.

AI slop, expensive signatures, too many shows on one weekend - I took a look a the state of the economy of comic cons and WonderCon in particular.

My wife and I have launched a GoFundMe to address our flood damaged house and the repairs beyond what insurance will cover. Don't feel obligated but we're grateful for any help. gofund.me/175fc3ca3

Whatever the state of the world, I'm home and TONIGHT I CAN WATCH MY FIRST METS GAME OF THE YEAR! And also learn the names of the Mets players too!

I dunno why people are talking about politics in art but Hawthorne wrote The Scarlet Letter to comment on the Salem witch trials and Melville wrote Moby Dick as a critique on slavery among many other things. So get used to it.

having your book (or comic) turned into a movie or tv show doesn't make you rich

!!!!!!!!!!

Floyd says he’s very impressed by modern films like Flo which was made with off the shelf software. “I voted for KPop Demon Hunters!” He says to applause in the room. #wondercon

“You’re always learning you’re always growing. You’re always trying to get better. That how you do it.” Asked about his favorite Disney movie he worked on Floyd says Sleeping Beauty was the most exquisite. “Just think, a human draw everything in that movie.” #wondercon

In the 60s Floyd and some partners formed Vignette, their own company. They went down to the Watts riot and filmed it live. Their footage is the film you see because they were the only people who went down. Later Norman worked for Hanna-Barbera. “It was a great studio to work for.” #wondercon

Some of the great talents at Disney: Ruthie Thompson who was very young hanging out and eventually got to be in animation checking and lived to be 111. “I was one lucky kid who got one lucky break after another. The men and women who I worked with at Disney were the best of the best.” #wondercon

Being in the military was very interesting, says Floyd Norman who served in the Korean War. “You go off to a foreign country and people shoot at you.” On being a cartoonist: “That’s why I became a cartoonist because we’re all crazy.” #wondercon

Floyd talks about learning how to tell stories and and engage the audience from the classic Nine Old Men, but there was a new burst of excitement in the era of The Little Mermaid on to Lion King - huge run of success. It was very exciting. #wondercon

Floyd Norman appreciated that Walt was direct and stated his opinion. “He was a very easy guy to work for because he told you exactly what he wanted.” He got a master class with Walt and learned a lot about story. “We didn’t have shiny working for Walt.” #wondercon

And now at the spotlight in another animation legend: Floyd Norman! #wondercon

Flying out of Newark EWR. Arrived at 7 am. From the shuttle bus arriving to standing in line for Starbucks inside security was about 10 minutes. There were a lot of lines everywhere but I have PreCheck. #tsa

There's a great Oni EC Comics bundle up now.

Although I have a flight early tomorrow, I’m avoiding packing, because I know when my cat Lucy sees the suitcase she’s gonna become very depressed. 😿

Four doses of an experimental vaccine to protect against Lyme disease reduced the number of tick-borne infections by more than 70 percent, according to Pfizer and Valneva. If successful, it could become the only Lyme disease vaccine available for people.
