Steve X-Men Comics@xmencomicssteve.bsky.social · yesterdayIn case anyone wanted to weigh in. If people don’t know, Gail Simone is the current writer of the Uncanny X-Men title. And for my $ the best follow on this whole site. Mainly for Gail’s advice on making the perfect cup of tea.
Hey friends, if you like comics, LOST, X-Files, art, or emotional stories, may I recommend you pick this up? Every issue kept expanding the landscape while also deepening the feelings. It has sneaky amounts of joy.
Dave Chisholm@davechisholmcomics.com · yesterdaySo, the last issue of IS TED OK? dropped almost a week ago, so maybe now I'll compile some thoughts in a thread!? First, again, huge thanks to everyone who bought it, read it, and helped spread the word. This is a project that managed to keep momentum through six issues and it was so exciting!

I have slipped down the rabbit hole of possible X-Men casting. I ask for your prayers in this difficult time. Also, if I could get an extension on all of my deadlines, I would appreciate it.
Hey does anyone know, do I need to have seen The Odyssey to understand Spider-Man: Brand New Day?

DC, you’re absolutely rushing Darkseid. Take your time and enjoy what you have.
Sending so much thanks to @explodingarrow.bsky.social and the team that picked the Eisner nominees this year. They did a fantastic job. Congrats to everyone!
Happy to see DC giving some heroes of color their own titles. Bravo to all who called them on this!

Hi @meakoopa.bsky.social! Every time I hear you on @cerebrocast.bsky.social, you make such great and deep connections between pop culture and the AIDS pandemic. Are there other authors or sources you might suggest that also move in that space? PS Your Iceman story is my favorite bar none.
