What did you pick up on NCBD? @papercutzgn.bsky.social @almondmilkart.bsky.social @trevoramueller.bsky.social @christophcondon.bsky.social @alexpaknadel.bsky.social @josephpillidge.bsky.social @fearlessfred.bsky.social @madcavestudios.com @adityab.net @readtinyonion.bsky.social @cjward.bsky.social

With 23 years of continuous work as a letterer, and over 30 years of print/production experience, I’m now unable to find any new lettering work in comics. Please keep me in mind when staffing your creator-owned projects and please consider requesting me on your WFH projects 🙏

TODAY! My first of three signings for NEW HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE: THE DAKOTA INCIDENT at Taylor & Co. Books in Brooklyn, New York! 5:00 - 7:00 P.M. Swing through!

Hey, friends! Comix Action is coming to the @fanfairenyc.bsky.social comic con this weekend at the High School of Art & Design! We'll have a table where you can hang out, get and fold zines, pick up whistles, and find out about activism in comics in NYC! Come see, come see!

This book was really good, and more in line with what I wanted from the original four issue "New History" series.

I really enjoyed this book. Don't go in expecting it to be like the other "New History" books though. It's a bit misleading. I do hope it helped some people get into the Milestone characters though.

TOMORROW IN COMIC BOOK SHOPS EVERYWHERE!! The 2nd printing of NEW HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE: THE DAKOTA INCIDENT by @dc.com and @reghud.bsky.social @denyscowan.bsky.social of MILESTONE! New variant cover by DAN MORA and the green logo variant of Cover A by Diego Olortegui! Hope you PRE-ORDERED!

In 1992, artists whose work defined an era of top-selling IP for Marvel joined forces, left the security of known brands and created Image Comics, the #3 publisher of comic books and launchpad for creator-owned IP including THE WALKING DEAD, INVINCIBLE, and THE OLD GUARD. Imagine the possibilities.

The next publisher that hires this man will immediately LEVEL UP. Editorial Gold.

"...these people...they're not complaining about Zack Snyder or STAR WARS. They're complaining about the fact that they're losing power or agency..."

you can make bad writing better, but you can't fix something that doesn't exist!

It's SUPERMAN DAY, and the one time I got to edit Kal-El was when Superman guest-starred in BATMAN: SHADOW OF THE BAT #92 from DC. 27 years later, the image of an immigrant superhero who came to America and stood for truth and justice being assaulted by militant vigilantes is bullseye-accurate.

Decimating the numbers of working Black women then hiring one Black woman will not trick Black women into voting for you in the primaries. Thank you for your attention to this matter. JPI

There are times when I regret not being a father. This is not one of those times.

BARS.

One of my favorite comic book covers. Forever. Three colors. Two words. One figure. If you know anything about Cole Cash, THE GRIFTER, he's always cool in hot situations. Artistic, editorial, and design brilliance.
