It's been a while since I've moderated a panel at a comic con, but, perhaps against their better judgement, those fine folks at @TraverseCitysC4 have tapped me to helm the "Adventures in Indie Publishing" panel Saturday at Noon! If you're going to be there, join us!

@CoffeeTimeComix Hard to believe, right?

[Dirk Manning @DirkManning]

I've legitimately lost track of how many current comic book writers have cited WRITE OR WRONG: A WRITER'S GUIDE TO CREATING COMICS as an impactful part of their journey to success. It's now in Final Order Cutoff at your local comic shops, so don't wait any longer to order!

[Dirk Manning @DirkManning]

@rogerpriebefilm Color me intrigued!

The Wormhole Club Tragedy is one of the best horror graphic novels I've ever read, and it's got 24 hours left to get a few more pledges and hit funding. If you love cosmic body horror and want to support an amazing woman creating superb comics, pledge now: https://t.co/mDJV5t1M7F

There's six days left to get this fantastic horror graphic novel over the finish line. If you're a fan of Junji Ito or Charles Burns, THE WORMHOLE CLUB TRAGEDY will have a valued place on your bookshelf! Show it some love, horror comic friends!

One of my favorite interviewers chatting with one of my favorite creators! Mark your calendars for this one later today, everyone!

[Cody - Keeping it Geekly @keepingitgeekly]

We will be sitting down with The Becka tomorrow @ 12 PM EST to chat about The Wormhole Club Tragedy - A Horror Graphic Novel from @SourcePtPress + much more!

It began with a spontaneous human combustion...or was it murder?

My "Can't Stop, Won't Stop!" Spring Signing Tour continues this Saturday for my annual pilgrimage to @Packrat_Comics in Hilliard, Ohio (just outside Columbus) for FCBD! This is my only scheduled appearance in the area for 2026, so c'mon out, say hello, and get some good books!

[Dirk Manning @DirkManning]

If you read WRITE OR WRONG in its original online column form, you have @Newsarama (and specifically Matt Brady) to thank for the. End of an era indeed.

[Popverse @PopverseSays]

End of an era: comics journalism outlet Newsarama gutted by layoffs as final writer exits.
