I think my interest in collecting comic art has hit an all time low, and it feels weird. I’m guessing my desire to just be out in the world and traveling has taken hold of my decision making when it comes to this hobby.

Posting two days in a row? It's like I'm trying! Well, I really am.
The last bit of SDCC still standing that’s not an Avengers lamp post banner.
Really, really loved that new Spider-Man movie. I question Peter Parker’s legitimacy as a New Yorker after seeing what pizza he’s been eating.
As someone who enjoys the Eisner nominated @shelfdust.bsky.social, I endorse this post.
I’d really love to spread the word about my comic book website Shelfdust. If you could please follow @shelfdust.bsky.social on Bluesky I’d really appreciate it - and I think you’ll enjoy it too!
I’m not over this piece of art painted on to the door of this Boba Fett themed car.
They should just skip releasing any other trailers for Doomsday. And if it drives a particular type of content creator mad, it would be all the better for us.
Overheard a conversation in line at the comic store, debating who’d win in a race between Sonic the Hedgehog, the Flash, and A-Train from The Boys. The amount of mental gymnastics at play…
Well. SDCC/OnPeak found a way to make an awful hotel booking system even worse this year.
Really fucking tired of how AI slop keeps finding its way in the spaces I'm in.
Good. I'm glad they changed their stance. It shouldn't have gotten to this point in the first place.
It looks like SDCC updated their terms on the art show! shaming works! (and thank you @senguie.bsky.social for posting this screenshot)
If SDCC is going to allow AI slop into their art show then this could very well be my final year attending.
Thank you to everyone who came out and helped spread the word. Thousands of Minnesotans gathered tonight for a vigil honoring Renee Good, who was murdered by ICE agents. Let’s get ICE out of MN!
Made an extremely quick script if you would like to call (or email, or fax, etc) your reps. Feel free to steal, in alt text. Find Your Senators: www.senate.gov/senators/sen... Find Your Representatives: www.house.gov/representati...
I wonder if anyone has made a 45 minute video analyzing that one minute Avengers Doomsday teaser yet..
Mailed out the last of my holiday cards today, 150 people received a picture of Bucky as the Yule Cat this year.
The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go. (I would not object to such an outcome.)
Seeing Avengers: Infinity War at the premiere in Hollywood. Literally walked into the theater after speaking to Jim Starlin on the carpet. Then, I seemed to be the only one visibly happy at the end of the film (my guy won!) Then, seeing Jim outside, looking content after the movie.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences? Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
Next year is the 10 year anniversary of me adapting compositing into my cosplay photography and I want to create some insane things that no one thinks of. And I REALLY hope I get to do that Dark Judges shot that I've been dying to do, finally...
