A short message about #HorrorNotHate from @jmbrandt.bsky.social and #SlowFeetComics. In collaboration with the great #RafaelNavarro, I've contributed a story, "Ladies' Night at the Saddle Rack." youtu.be/1pHax-r0Tgo

A heavy DC and Marvel week in my comics stack thanks to "All Fight Month!" youtu.be/3ejQX5cuYoU

A few years ago, the archivists at the #WilliamSaroyan family library asked me to read his #Christmas card for their YouTube account. It was an honor, and I'm pleased to repost it every year. It helps me get in the spirit, and not just because it's my voice :) youtu.be/XUQuopruXig?...

Fun “improv” panel last night at @loscon.bsky.social — no babies or chihuahuas were harmed! @badwriter.bsky.social

Inspired by a simple question from a friend at #HouseofSecrets in Burbank, I've started a weekly series of part comic reviews, part justifying the stack I buy each week. All a bit stream of consciousness, but hopefully entertaining. youtu.be/VXEJYrxCIFY?...

A bonus trip through comics this week, as I took a side trip to Golden Apple. Picked up three great #1s you may totally dig. youtu.be/2iAbaQzjIxQ?...

Supporting a fun book that reminds me someone needs to reprint How to be a Superhero from 1990. You don't need me to tell you Daniel Kibblesmith is hilarious. But thanks @chroniclebooks.bsky.social for amplifying it. fanboyplanet.com/can-you-surv...

We had fun at the #BurbankClownHouse (with a bonus trip to the #BurbankBarbieHouse) youtu.be/TF8miCBTB50?...

I don't know if this should be concerning, but currently, Fanboy Planet is getting a ridiculously high amount of traffic from Singapore. Something going on with nerd culture there?

Chatted with @chrisjmancini.bsky.social about his new book #AlphaCat! youtu.be/xiOtdsh9OKY?...

I just backed The Return of Cyrus Perkins on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

WTF

Is it fair to dress the pup as an avatar of a food he cannot have? Perhaps, but he clearly still thinks he’s delicious.

I did not have this on my spam bingo card — got an Instagram request to join in on OnlyFans content. Once again I remind people that despite my having written a book called I Was Flesh Gordon, I was NOT Flesh Gordon.

I’m intrigued.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I know it's a little counter to the tension we rightfully feel, but my friend #KimJoy 's new book was released last week... youtu.be/6mKYcmRd7pE?...

This is pretty cool.

The mighty @monsterforge.bsky.social rolls on with #Kraken, out today from @comicstitan.bsky.social - @shannondenton.bsky.social and @davidhartmanart.bsky.social have created a banger! fanboyplanet.com/kraken-fight...

My friends, a merry band of horror comics creators. We had a blast at L.A. Comic Con.

I dreamt last night that I was shopping at a Sears and they had signs up for a special 50% off all Mark Rylance toys. And I was mad because there weren’t any. I woke up and thought, has Mark Rylance ever been in a movie that had action figures?

Fanboy Planet will be at L.A. Comic Con talking indie horror comics! Saturday at 6 pm Room 406A -- It Came from Indie Horror Comics! fanboyplanet.com/indie-horror...

My pal @shannondenton.bsky.social is using @monsterforge.bsky.social to do what it should -- FORGE MORE MONSTERS! fanboyplanet.com/monsters-mut...

So if the Rapture happens, will I still be able to use the Find My app to locate my wife’s phone? I have no belief that I’m gonna get scooped up, but she’s pretty good, so maybe…

Discover #HalloweenMan if you haven't already -- coming in 2 weeks at your local comics shop! youtu.be/UgYtaerp7yQ?...

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

This was my boy last night and it sums up my attitude today.

After last week, wrestling with this book was one of the most important things I could do -- just what are the limits? fanboyplanet.com/why-the-free...

I really loved the debut from @ignitionpress.bsky.social -- #MurderPodcast! fanboyplanet.com/ignition-lau...

I really enjoying running reviews from #MarkGelineau in his guise as #PulpArcanaStudios toy photography. His photos are great; his evaluation of action figures top-notch. fanboyplanet.com/pulp-arcana-...

The great #rafaelnavarro just shared this shot of him working on a comic book story — that I wrote. Once again thrilled and watch this space!

Happy to have guested on @matineeheroes.bsky.social to talk about #Labyrinth, a movie I want to love more than I do, but definitely admire like heck. fanboyplanet.com/trapped-in-t...

I absolutely love that @hasbropulse.bsky.social has committed so hard to #ColdSlither being a real band. I may have to buy the album. fanboyplanet.com/cold-slither...

I've been extremely happy to run toy reviews from my friend #MarkGelineau... his interests are like mine: all over the place. This week, The Count von Count from Sesame Street! fanboyplanet.com/pulp-arcana-...

I meant to post this and got stuck on a series of work calls -- dug this book and I think you will, too!

Talking with Keith Arem of #PCBEntertainment about his latest graphic novel with @christophershy.bsky.social, #FrostRoad! youtu.be/DmQWGPiUyJU?...

I just backed MONSTER DRIVE-IN Vol. 1 – A grindhouse horror Graphic Novel on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/155...

Never eaten at Cracker Barrel. Always been curious. Suddenly (to me) THAT'S become political. WTF? However, the biggest laugh I've had this week was my pinay wife explaining what she THINKS is on the menu. 1/2
