Bluesky needs a setting where, if we don't follow each other and you want to comment on my post, you will first be prompted to purchase once of my books.

Issue 2 cover for Harley and Ivy: Life and Crimes! (And reminder that issue one is out November 5th) www.comicsbeat.com/dc-comics-de...

Has anyone else been watching Upload? It's so good and I never hear anyone talk about it.

A lot of stereotypes about Bluesky are nonsense, but the idea that if you dare to post cheerfully about even a small win, people will leave their dogs and children unattended in traffic so they can inform you as quickly as possible that no actually everything is still terrible? That's real.

The thing about me is, I'm always willing to spend money on a good gag gift.

I'm in Europe so I'll get the rapture a few hours ahead of most of you. STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES!

I dated a guy who was in this movie. So of course I watched it. And ya know, it's a pretty fun time.

What movie do you consider perfect? (yes I am serious, don't @-me)

what movie do you consider "perfect"?

I wrote 15 pages of this new script with a character named Charlie before I remembered I already have a Charlie in Fire & Ice. I should probably change his name so people don't think I only know 5 names.

Share a preacher, priest or nun From Sirens of the City. Art by @kharyrandolph.bsky.social

I did a Batman.

We’ve been cleared to share it, so we can say we did a variant cover for Absolute Martian Manhunter 7, dropping December 24! The book slaps, we were delighted to be asked to contribute. @denizcamp.bsky.social and @javierrodriguez.bsky.social really have something special with this book.

I think we should give some credit to CVS here.

Pick an airline loyalty program and stay with it to the best of your ability. I have left so many upgrades and cheaper trips on the table by not doing so.

Most of the time, elder abuse stops when the person dies, but this is honestly an impressively innovative genre of evil

It is so hard to get any writing done in the midst of... All this. I can't even imagine how creatives in thr US are functioning.

My boyfriend took this Pic if me and the cat sleeping. But he cut off my head, because she's his real girlfriend.

Wow.

I feel like Batman would be a really difficult art editor to work for.

Recurring themes in my work: *Messy protags *Greek vibes *Intergenerational trauma *Found family *Being trans/queer *Mlm relationships *Authenticity vs conformity What are yours?

The "found family" and "dunking on white guys" themes are particularly strong in Fire and Ice When Hell Freezes Over. Which I recommend you all read ASAP.

Recurring themes in my work: *Bad moms *Found family *Aging as a woman *Public vs private life *Dunking on white guys What are yours?

Luigi got thicc

We're like 40 minutes into thr new mission impossible, and so far this is the most nonsensical, clumsy, poorly written thing I've seen in a LONG time.

People are so funny when they say things like "Creating art just for money is deeply cynical." Art is my JOB and sole source of income. Money isn't the ONLY reason I make art, but it's the PRIMARY one and I'm not shy about that. The fact that it pays my bills doesn't make it less good. Be real.

Is it just me or does The Boys logo look like a shopping cart.

I would ask you to consider that buying a book by trans creators about trans characters sends a more powerful message about what a publisher should care about and spend their money on than not buying one.

I didn't want to write "Netflix and chill" in this script, so I said, "Streaming and Steamin'."

I've got a story in EC's Catacomb of Torment #3, in stores TODAY! Check out a preview of my story with Chris Mitten! share.google/UiqIm2HP1xxE...

Dean Winchester seems like one of those guys who doesn't wash his butthole.

Classroom #2. This one needs $530 to finish giving this South Dakota high school a rad collection of diverse and banned books: www.donorschoose.org/project/book...

The dream would be to work on a long-form project where I could do the equivalent of CW gimmick episodes. Tell a real story, but also throw in a musical episode, an old west one, one where they fight Nazis...

Timeline cleanse

This week, AQUAMAN: YO-HO-HOLD ONTO YOUR HOOK heads to Metropolis Island! www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/book/...

Kurt Busiek has started a whole discourse based on the credits on my book being too small. And let me tell you, I am gagged.

Woke up and everything is still terrible, so here's someone else who has made my life measurably better -- the late, great Keith Giffen. The Great Darkness Sage is my personal Watchmen and anyone who knows me knows how much Ambush Bug is just part of my creative DNA.

Ladies and femmes, if you haven't seen, Irregular Choice is going out of business. Most of the stuff is gone, but if you have tiny feet, there are many deals to be had. I have giant flippers, so no shoes for me, but I got this very cute bag.

Well, one good side effect of the world burning is, I didn't have to see any dumb, patronizing 9/11 posts yesterday.

I finished reading Fire & Ice yesterday, I really enjoyed it! As someone who was mildly familiar with the characters, but not an expert, it was a great way to learn about them! Loved the story and the art! thanks so much @stephenbyrne86.bsky.social @joannestarer.bsky.social

Everything is terrible, so here's someone who has made my life immeasurable better -- @jmdematteis.bsky.social Of all this work, MOONSHADOW and JUSTICE LEAGUE are the books that are just burned into my soul. They taught me to love comics in all their ridiculous complexities.

My library event schedule for September, now in picture form! I'll be talking Mr. Muffins in DC, and Renegade Royale in NY!
