Joe is one of the best people I've ever had in my life and if you could help him out while he's in recovery, it would mean the world.

This is a message I never expected to or wanted to share. My partner @joehunter.bsky.social is currently in the hospital with a severe case of pneumonia, and while he is slowly on the mend, that time means a lot of money his family could use help with. Anything you can offer is deeply appreciated.

He pities the (April) fool. One from a long old time ago.

This week has been a YEAR

For those who missed it, me & Carlos Javier Olivares & @madcavestudios.com announced a new series... JUNK PUNCH!! @comicsbeat.bsky.social has the story right here! www.comicsbeat.com/exclusive-ma... (I had an extra image slot so I put in a joey to play to your attention / sympathies. Hope it works!)

I'm hearing people wanting to go back to the "better" times of TSA already, which is truly an alarming sign of where we are at now.

1. Chara is not ancient and decrepit, and those falls are just embarrassing for the LA players 2. Shirt or sign, tbd, but I want something that just says "CHARA SAID NO" #rctid

If you don't understand how important Jessie Fleming is at this point... I can't help you #BAONPDX One of the best work rates in the history of the sport. Down a player, she covers more ground. Down two players, she covers the most ground. That is everything.

Had the great fortune to read issue one of this and it's absolutely fantastic, can't wait to read the rest! And then I got to do a variant cover too!!

BEAT EVERY 1-UP is officially out today. I’m equal parts excited, thrilled, and honestly…relieved. This story has lived in my head and heart for so long, and letting it go out into the world feels surreal. I hope it makes you laugh, think, maybe feel a little too much--

Don't miss Exploit co-writers and comics journalism legends @laurahudson.bsky.social and @timleong.bsky.social on this week's episode of Off Panel, as they join me to talk about their new @madcavestudios.com series and their long path to making their first comic together.

I like how women's hockey and Paralympics hockey wear face guards on their helmets, but the non-paralympics men are all "absolutely not, wearing face protection that you can see through just fine is UNMANLY. If I'm not unnecessarily breaking my jaw and my teeth out of my face, it's not hockey, eh"

Celebrating the true heroes of this match: Mookie and the corgi crew. #rctid

"Kirby Kuo is a relatable and multi-faceted character and her cast of supporting characters are equally interesting. Like the best thrillers, there's a heavy feeling of paranoia throughout." @madcavestudios.com #comicbooks #comicsky #NCBD Read @noroomforgloom.bsky.social's review:

Does anyone else remember Seabert? I used to rent this cartoon on VHS repeatedly from Blockbuster as a child. And I've loved seals ever since.

You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians they’ve paid off. Leave your comment here: eplanning.blm.gov/Participate-... morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/blm-announ...

We're listening, Seattle #eccc

My cat has decided that I have tried to MURDER HER because she got a claw stuck while trying to jump in my lap. Now she is in hiding. My punishment may last for days.

One of the best parts of this trip, not ComicsPRO related: meeting my new obsession, Atreyu 😻

Throughout February, we're celebrating Black History Month by highlighting titles including Temporal, Bytchcraft, The Tiger's Tongue, and many more! See them here: https://bit.ly/46GEj0j

Merry ComicsPRO! Whirlwind couple of days.

Don't forget that I'll be taking part in the School Library Journal's Middle Grade Magic virtual event on March 5th!

US women holding it DOWN in the Olympics today

This should not be a valid tactic in any of our legislative processes. If you can't successfully get your policies passed via debate, and that is basically your job, you don't get to just not show up to your job. The law we passed on this should be much more strict (re: unexcused absences).

Why am I only seeing coverage of the dog winning Olympics skiing via social media clips, not streaming on Peacock, NBC? Why does the Olympic committee apprently think no one is interested in women's hockey??? These are only the tip of my Olympics questions iceberg, but we will start there.
