There’s something interesting about billionaires, who all basically crave to be liked and adored and worshipped by the public while refusing to do anything at all with their wealth to make that happen through good works for the public

I can finally share the thangs I been working earlier this year. I applied to an artist call for concert posters for Stern Grove Festival, and the marketing team matched me up with Bomba Estéreo and La Misa Negra. They also asked me to make some cartoony graphics for their kids merch.

Is it okay that Stan Lee and Steve Ditko also didn't get acknowledged? No. It sucks on every level. If you can credit set drivers, caterers, and personal assistants, there's room for the people who dreamed up all of it in the first place.

Enjoyed SPIDER-NOIR eps 1+2 and am looking forward to watching more, but it's a damn shame the creators of the Spider-Man Noir comic didn't even get a Special Thanks in the credits. David Hine, Fabrice Sapolsky, Carmine Di Giandomenico and designer Marko Djurdjević deserve that at the very least.

Some thoughts here, since I actually have a story in the Stardust anthology that just Eisner booted becaue one guy was enough of a shithead to use A.I. to produce his one page in the book. I did the story (for free) because I thought it would be weird and fun. It was. (1/?)
