'Early woodcut initials: containing over thirteen hundred reproductions of ornamental letters of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries' selected and annotated by Oscar Jennings, M.D., published in London by Methuen and Co., 1908. #bookhistory #Historiatedinitials #ornamentalletters #woodcutinitial

Holey moley. A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

Ugh. Thank you, arthritis, for making me wear a stupid brace on both hands. No drawing for at least the next month. So I’ve got that going for me. Yay. Did I mention the bursitis? Because there’s bursitis.

Okay, I’ve messed around enough with this. #MarvelComics #MachineMan #AaronStack #X51 #fanart

A weird WIP I’ve been kicking around. #WIP #MachineMan #MarvelComics #AaronStack #Android #Comics

Astronomy. It's not just for the lads.

Today on #BetwixtTheSheets I am talking to the one and only and utterly fabulous prof Vanessa McCarthy about her research into sex work in #renaissance Italy. Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

Hello @drrochellerowe.bsky.social I enjoyed your interview on #BetweenTheSheets. Can you recommend a book where an uneducated layperson (i.e., me) can find out more about Victorian beauty and race? #VictorianEra #podcast #BeautyAndRacism

Just listened to a great Journalism History podcast episode today on deaf printers and a preservation project at Gallaudet University. Anyway their site has a great tutorial for making those caps: deafprinters.com/hat

It’s time for the new #SupervillainWeekly featuring iconic mutant Magneto! Is he friend or foe to the X-Men? #Magneto #MagazineCover #X-Men #MarvelComics #comics #fanart #Marvel

I did not expect to love "Sinners" as much as I did. Call it rizz, charisma, screen presence, whatever; Michael B. Jordan has it. (Plus, I love how the Hollywood types are getting SO SO mad that Ryan Coogler's getting paid.)

This is awesome. Kids are kids no matter where or when. I absolutely love it!

You know, I want to re-read #JohnBrunner #StandOnZanzibar like I do every year, but it's hitting way too close to home right now. #booksky #SpecFic #Dystopia

Just in time for #PrideMonth, it’s the new issue of Capers!, the magazine for super geeks! This month, we interview queer icon Northstar about his life before and after coming out. #RainbowSky #AlphaFlight #Northstar #LGBTQIA #fanart #comic #comics #MarvelComics #OhCanada #Canadian

I just stumbled across this jaw-dropping piece by Art Nouveau master Anton Seder. Wow. #AntonSeder #ArtNouveau

May the Fourth be with you.

The world sucks flaming farts. Here’s a bit of relief starring OCs from my friends over on ComicFury.com. You are not ready for…Rubbergirl vs Serpentyne! #ComicFury #Webcomic #comics #fanart #RubberGirl #Serpentyne #Hawaii #Superhero #TeamHades

The Syrian Arabic word for a hamster is أبو جراب (abu jrab), where jrab refers to a pouch/saddlebag/tote. And abu often means “father of,” but can also function as a general honorific (like “mister”). So it’s not too big a stretch to say the Syrian Arabic word for a hamster means “Mister Saddlebags”

“Philomena Cunk on Shakespeare” is hilarious, a glorious sendup of stuffy documentaries and pompous talking heads. “The difference between “Hamlet’ and ‘Taken’ is that Liam Neeson makes up his mind.” Great stuff. #medievalsky #satire #PhilomenaCunk

Now on the newsstands: Supervillain's annual Moriarty Awards issue, with Hall of Fame honoree Samuel Sterns! #TheLeader #SupervillainWeekly #fanart #comics #marvelcomics #MoriartyAwards #HallOfFame #Hulk

If you see this, post an anime you love.

Today marks the 400th anniversary of the death of King James VI & I. He presented this spectacular copy of his writings to the University in 1619. The sumptuous velvet binding – now a little worn – carries his coat of arms in gilt leather. UL Sel.2.83. @theulspeccoll.bsky.social

Beautiful woodcuts, but DAMN.

“The Quanderhorn Xperimentations” is a loopy sendup of 1950s SF that includes failed Martian invasions (three of them), the most disagreeable aliens in the universe, and experiments that go wrong in every conceivable way. Truly hilarious. #booksky #humor #SciFi

Coming soon: He’s half-demon, half-guy, and ALL ACTION!! Prepare yourselves for the brain-blasting adventures of…DEMON GUY!! (Posted for a friend’s webcomic over on ComicFury.) #DemonGuy #comics #webcomics #Wiltlox #humor #CollegeLife

Self-explanatory companion pieces to my Cap post, done in the aftermath of the SCOTUS striking down Roe v Wade:

@kristinazakhozhai.bsky.social You probably hear this a lot, but TBOC is absolutely phenomenal. The art and world-building are A-rank.
