I'm a regular guy, I put my trousers on the same way as everyone else: falling into them through a hole in the ceiling via a contraction operated by my long suffering dog

50% of phobe columns in the national press (of which there are SO MANY) are 'it should be illegal for me to have to see a minority I personally find Icky' and the other 50% are 'also it should be illegal not to like me and feed me bonbons and tell me I'm always right'

Things are Terrible, but this isn't. Be weird.

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.

Every year for Hanukkah I like to share panels from this special holiday comic I edited when I was on staff at Marvel. There remains a dearth of specifically Hanukkah stories in comics and this one only ever appeared in print once. Every year I am proud to share and celebrate the light of Hanukkah:

You can see the original pencils of this card at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles as part of the JACK KIRBY: HEROES AND HUMANITY exhibit (now on view through March 1, 2026!)

No spoilers but there’s a page in this week’s JUDGE DREDD: AND TO THE SEA RETURN which might be the best thing Henry Flint’s ever done, and puts the whole story in an entirely new light.

"Andy Ngo and other far right extremists have been targeting Avalos since at least as early as July and trying to paint her as violent and a 'member of Antifa.' On court record, Ngo has admitted that his social media posts can lead to violence." It's projection from the right. All the way down.

A highlight of my week every single week.

"DC Comics will not support AI-generated story telling or art, not now, not ever, as long as [DC SVP and general manager] Anne DePies and I are in charge,” DC publisher and president Jim Lee announced at NYCC 2025 Wednesday. www.thepopverse.com/comics-live-...

BREAKING NEWS: We just secured a court order blocking the president’s order to deploy federalized National Guard troops to Portland when a federal judge granted our request for a Temporary Restraining Order. Read our statement. #orpol #nationalguard #portland #portlandoregon

to be honest I've always found it kinda fun to end up being a little bit crappy at whatever I try to do... Takes a lot of pressure off, and I feel like everyone can tell when you're doing something just for the love of the game

if you’re a visual learner i made you some maps of where the people quoted in this article as supporting portland being occupied by troops live

'out of the three mass shootings today'

First installment of TRASH HUMPER is now available on Gumroad, and you can pay whatever you want! All proceeds going towards more ADHD meds that help me overthink the things I love! trashhumperzine.gumroad.com/l/zwehy

For those going to RCCC this weekend, new zine will be available for $5! 20 pages of b&w manually constructed and stapled diy fun featuring two entirely new essays.

A commenter on my essay on the age of alt-weeklies left this comment from "This Woman Votes," which states my premise so much more powerfully than I could--in the fight against fascism, the urgency of stories that linger--that I added it to the post. slowcivilwar.substack.com/p/the-longfo...

We need a 2000AD Coffee Table book of the Titan and Eagle covers.

Jesse Lonergan’s Drome is great. Plus, look at that lettering.

Today is a good day to spend some time thinking about what you want America to mean, and steps—however small—you can take to cultivate its growth in that direction

JAWS really is the quintessential* 4th of July movie that shows you America. Everyone is stressed out about money and jobs while a giant shark keeps picking us off and it's going to take three people from very different backgrounds in a boat to end this *Quint-Essential, nice

Final Destination, but it’s just me having the first line of the Bee Gees’ “New York Mining Disaster 1941” in my head on a loop as I wait in line to board a plane. (“In the event of something happening to me…”)

Brian Wilson just days after Sly Stone hits hard. Holy crap.

Another world is possible if we fight for it.

Rest in Peace to a great one. (And if you have Hulu, go watch Sly Lives.)

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

The surprise new video from Mike Mills and Saoirse Ronan for Talking Heads' Psycho Killer is pretty neat. (As was finding it on the Criterion Channel last night by accident.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ54...

PJ Harvey opening for U2 way back in the early 90s. (An Achtung Baby tour? I think so?) Her amp blew up three times during Sheela-Na-Gig. I’m old.

I have had the Bee Gees' fake Beatles song "Have You Heard The Word?" in my head for three days straight now, and it is beginning to feel worrying.

This was a book that I loved, back in the day; David's Star Trek novels (and comics!) were similarly big with me as a teenager, and I loved his Incredible Hulk and that first X-Factor run a lot, a lot, a lot. (His 'But I Digress' columns in CBR were a massive influence on my brain, too.) RIP.

Steve Lieber is, once again, the best of us.

If you liked the Andor, you should try The Power Fantasy. It's nothing like it, but you have to read something.

2000 AD graphic novels to read if you're enjoying #Andor! Check out these collections of space westerns, desperate rebellions, morally-nuanced characters and stunning artwork... 🧵

My first thought when seeing the artwork in this book really was, "Damn, European cartoonists still have that line work that looks like classic mid-century US comic book artists."

Should have threaded this earlier, but another great way to directly support me and ALL of the 20+ Polygon employees laid off in the Valnet acquisition (layoffs that just happened to include all of the site's union staff) is to donate to our WGAE-organized fund: www.gofundme.com/f/support-po...

it’s good we have a specific day to celebrate Star Wars, which would otherwise be the least celebrated film franchise

Like 2000AD? Like music?

AI is killing our shared media experience, replacing the humans that make it and now it's ripe for takeover from the right. newrepublic.com/article/1935...

The official White House social media accounts use internet slang pilfered from Black and queer communities to issue propaganda that promotes violence against Black and queer communities

Trade war's going well, I see. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

Inexplicably thinking about the UK release of Lilys' Better Can't Make Your Life Better this morning, with the different track listing, remixes and orchestral overdubs, as you do. (I wish this version was on the streaming services as well; a couple of the tracks are much improved in this release.)
