Just read all 14 issues of Xenozoic Tales for the first time in decades. It’s literally some of the best comic book art ever put on the page! Too beautiful to even accurately describe. And the story is great too. Thirty years since the most recent issue 😢. Would be great if Schultz would do more 🙏🏻

About to see Coming to America in theaters

You whipping out a big one, today! ;-) My selection for this week: “Crime SuspenStories” #22 (April 1954). The infamous Johnny Craig cover that was used when Bill Gaines testified at the Senate Subcommittee hearing.

Is this a dick joke in an EC comic?!

When I’ve had way too many gummies

Mail call: Original art for two L.A. Times Star Trek daily strips, August 1 and August 2 1983, art by Dick Kulpa. These strips are from the 18th story arc Terminally Yours, written by Gerry Conway. For someone who zaps his way out of a giant Vulcan sandworm, Spock looks remarkably worm-juice free.

Akbar and Jeff in Life is Hell

New back issue read. This was only a couple bucks, but it is hard to find. Alien spotlight was a one shot series about different aliens. This one is about Q. I think I have all of them now

Who joined the black dragon fighting society?

RIP Bob Weir

Lone wolf is also doing dry January

Wolf mountain

New to me, now reading, from 1999

Continuing my reread of every Usagi Yojimbo single issue comic. I’m up to #5 from the 3rd series. August 1996. It is now fully established as an on-going series at Dark Horse

Cover by Bud Thompson.

As the new year is almost upon us, that calls for something really cool from the collection. Hulk 5, published in January 1963. The only issue I own of the original 6 issue run. This was a double feature, with the 1st appearance of Tyrannus and ol' greenie battled The Hordes of General Fang.

Lone Wolf and Cub

Inspired by @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social oversized top shelf Friday pick, I decided to dig out this magazine sized Spidey and Silver Sable adventure. I forgot how unhinged the ending is

Next up, by Joe Orlando. An old EC story

Lone wolf and cub

Tonight’s dinner music. 5xLP box set. Art by Dave Van Patten. Now spinning.

Thought this might be appropriate to share on Christmas. This is 1 of 2 on the cgc census. My 1:100 variant Cult of the Lamb #1 sign & sketch by Stan Sakai. I bought a marker that matched the cover ink. Praise Lamb! ;) @massivemonster.bsky.social @cbccpodcast.bsky.social @ksfphd.bsky.social

Getting weird with the record selections tonight

Reading Lone Wolf and Cub

Not doing shit today

Continuing my reread of every Usagi Yojimbo single issue comic. I’m up to #4 from the 3rd series. July 1996

Enjoying a beer and a book.. err magazine. Val Dieu winter ale from Belgium and the Star Trek next generation makeup and FX journal from 1992. Cheers!

Reading on the train. Brilliantly dark sci fi story here

$1 pick up. The happy crickets were a rip off of Alvin and the chipmunks with sped up vocals doing public domain songs. Here is there one (xmas) album. It almost certainly sucks but I had to buy it

All roads lead to Oreo

CRASH!

New back issue read

Now reading the infamous EC story Judgment Day by Joe Orlando and Al Feldstein. Weird Fantasy #20 also printed letters to the editor about it including one from Ray Bradbury
