My heart is full, and my voice is STILL hoarse. Jax Podathon 2024 was a huge success 🫡

We raised $800 for charity, gave out our first JPU Awards, and brought close to 100 podcasters from all over NEFL together for our best event yet.

Thank you, Jax

I interviewed Brian Wiedman two years ago to talk about life as a professional comic book auctioneer at @HeritageAuction , and all the cool places he's been to find some of the world's rarest comics. It remains one of my favorite interviews to date

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

Since @HeritageAuction has been in the news for setting another world record for a comic book sale, I think it's a perfect time to remind everyone of the auctioneer who yet again is part of history:

@CoyJandreau Genuinely curious. With the sheer volume of comics you read weekly, how do you manage storage, do you keep a lot of short boxes around or do you donate/ giveaway?

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

This went quadruple platinum in every iPod I ever owned. Sometimes I find myself randomly saying the drops: “J-Love” lol

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

@jpalmiotti I have a few of these annual stock reports in my eBay cart right now, had no idea you were involved with them. My Uncle-in-law, who works in finance, said he used to collect them every year. There’s some damn good art in them!

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

There's plenty more hip-hop stories and comic book talk where that came from, as well as some great introspection about fatherhood and creating art for the next generation, in the full interview

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

Everything about Czarface, from the music, branding, and merchandise, is all steeped in Silver-Age comic book lore. And it's not just for show.

A few highlights from my conversation with group member Esoteric 🪡

[Badr Milligan @TheShortBoxJax]

Esoteric talks about realizing at a young age the overlap and parallels between hip-hop and comics, and what he viewed as kindred spirits in both art forms

[Jimmy Palmiotti @jpalmiotti]

I work 6 plus days a week about 10 hours a day on comics. Sometimes more, hardly ever less.
I make less than almost all my friends not making comics-pay my own healthcare, have no company pension, but forever loyal to those I work for - and spend my money investing in my own books and characters.
I have a website where I sell my work- https://t.co/quH8lTlTev and I really do love my job.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Sneak peek at something coming in 2026 below.
