New scans! This Black Cat Mystery cover is one my all time favorite pre-code horror covers (by Lee Elias to boot!) & this one is a prime example of "low grade is better than no grade"! The Super-Mystery Comics has the internal sleeve messed up, so scans didn't work well. #goldenage #silverage
New scans of modern books (some more modern than others!) Batgirl: I thought this was going to be a huge hit. It was not. Note: Mignola Batgirl never skipped leg day. Also: #teambetty forever. Brush your teeth, or Casper's going to haunt you! #comicbooks
New scans of Avengers books! Some great covers in this batch! #comicbooks
Spoilery thoughts on AbBatman: I have read the first two trades (#1-14) now. My presumption is that the big bad is meant to be the Joker. That seems to be who they are building up to, correct? It’s obvious that he’s been one of or the main nemesis for Batman traditionally. 1/3 #comicbooks
Spoilery thoughts on AbWW: I have read the first two trades (#1-14) & I read #15 on DC Universe Infinite. I really like what they are doing, but I do think they are taking a risk. Setting up a long game like they are with the slow plot reveals of Cale's org & the gods game... 1/3 #comicbooks
Last night I had to remove the remains of a small bunny from the yard. It was probably the victim of a hawk, though it’s always hard to tell. This is the first time in a while, thankfully, as it’s always a bit messy and gross.
Wendy Carlos - Sonic Seasonings (1972) I was thrilled to find this yesterday, as her stuff seems rare (on any media!) #vinylsky
Absolute Wonder Woman - Vol 2 Another home run, imo! Just fantastic stuff. The fact variant covers (which are scattered through the trade) also are not putting her sexuality on display is refreshing. This series is A+ for me ! #comicbooks
New record store today: Instant Karma Records in Orleans, MA Tomita - Greatest Hits (1979) #vinylsky
Absolute Wonder Woman Vol 1 Wow! I loved this!! It’s an interesting take on WW that I really enjoyed, and the art is awesome across issues 1-7! #comicbooks
The Cars - Live at the El Mocambo (1978) Just spinning up this early Cars bootleg concert recording! The vinyl looks VG+ I’d say so I’m happy with the $30 price.
Gene Krupa; Lionel Hampton; Teddy Wilson - Playing Some Of The Selections They Played In The Benny Goodman Movie (1956) #vinylsky
Next week I’m taking my dad on vacation to the Frazetta museum! He’s been a fan since before I was born. Coincidentally it’s near some of my wife’s family so they will meet him too. Dad’s still driving & independent but it will be more fun together plus I know the area. www.frazettamuseum.com

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Working on a commission for @lymang.bsky.social - his Starfinder character, Kithrin. I've drawn her previously, but this time she's all business. Gonna share the process behind this, as it's going to be digitally painted, and it's not as "simple" as my regular comic book line work.
It’s #WesternComicsMonth day 31! Epilog: Bonus “almost comics” post - it’s not a comic but it’s definitely on theme. I don’t know when I got this or where from and I usually stay out of the magazine scene! .44 Western Magazine #goldenage
LymanG@lymang.bsky.social · 6d agoIt’s #WesternComicsMonth day 31! I don’t have a spectacular post for the last day of the month so: Rangers #46(1949) Every cover with Firehair is certainly dynamic..she’s always fighting something! Bob Lubbers cover art #goldenage #comicbooks
