Coming up: Wonder Ones: covering every issue called “Wonder Woman #1” in history, to see how the idea of a Wonder Woman changes over generations Steve Baxi, Chad Nevett and I take on the three part Morrison/Capullo run of Spawn Plastic Fantastic: a column where I cover Plastic Man from the start

RIP Bonnie Tyler. And RIP Tandi Iman Dupree. This remains the best stage entrance by a drag queen of all time, even some 25 years later, and the best use of Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” ever. youtu.be/IHQA5vqn6rw?...

The time spent on an issue of Pricks divided by the sales of each issue works out at about 78p per hour. To pay myself minimum wage I would need to charge around £56 per issue. The only answer is to keep going and hope people discover it. Hope you enjoyed this great advert! Frasergeesin.com

RIP bonnie tyler. lotta folks tonight are gonna learn the extent to which 'total eclipse of the heart' is outside their karaoke range

I'm putting a Shelfdust feature together about Wonder Woman at the mo. Over the decades there's been six comics called "Wonder Woman #1". What does each one of those six comics have to say about that particular generation's view of "wonder" and "woman"? And how come they've all been written by men

If anyone needs help understanding Infinite Crisis I made a useful guide: shelfdust.com/2020/08/03/t...

Went to see a standup try some light observational material. No laughs. He restarted, embellishing with punishing detail. Long over descriptions. Silence. He restarted again but replaced every word with the sound of breaking wind. His story repeats itself. First as turgidity then as farts.

Now is then and the personal is political. @ligerlillie.bsky.social writes a hell of an article.

I wrote about massive corporations funding "resistance art" and how awkward that relationship can be: "Somehow we’re left holding a Marvel comic – and Disney product – calling for violent revolution."

It's real good! Whilst you slept the world sung.

A timely reminder that Paul Grist is great, Britain ("real" and imagined) sucks eggs, but that the people who live here don't always.

living in Britain is so funny because there’s three easy things you can do that will set a decent part of the population to driving you out of public life and openly fantasising about murdering you and they are - be an ethnic minority - be transgender - ride a bicycle

New Thorsday Thoughts on a couple of recent comics that tried to tie together Thor and Kirby's Fourth World... with less than stellar results. Some words on the Jason Aaron/Russell Dauterman story from Spider-Man/Superman and Ultimates 23. graphicontent.blogspot.com/2026/05/i-kn...

What we need is a government brave enough to post an official slurs list businesses can use on customers. Guidance is lacking and it's left service providers unclear on just who they can use which slurs against. I trust Labour for the job!

Deep glee. Lots of amazing folks here.

A non-exhaustive list of everything that made me "gender" (1/boredom) 1) Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge 2) Guybrush Threepwood's eventual fancy dress outfit in MI2 3) Suzie Izzard's Dressed to Kill VHS 4) The Bowler from Mystery Men 5) Tzeentch 6) Clyde Petersen 2008 live performance

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

exciting news: there’s a profile of me out in The Needle by @marleywrites.bsky.social if you want to find out why I’m like this theneedlenews.com/2026/05/nove...

One of my absolute favourites in a hot new format you can wedge into a tote bag/big pocket/whatever the funny kangaroo pouch is called in the front of a non-zip-up hoody? Hell yes.
