I did not have the comic industry imploding this early in my 2025 bingo card, but here we are.

Scammers getting scammed by bigger scammers gets a cigar of joy lot in their schadenfreude.

Do you remember when you joined Twitter X? I do! Things used to be so much fun. Now there is meh!

Most predictable apocalypse ever. Life is now Stranger Than Fiction.

@heroinitiative @Challengers @DarkMatter2521 @DaveScheidt @RyanBrowneArt I’ll be there!

The site is useless as a tool. Effective in bring petty and dumb discourse to the world.

@robbiegmorrison My comic shop confirmed that the book came out today. Got my copy in my subscription pile.

[Frank Davis MLIS @francisrdavis]

Thinking it is time to start closing this up. I am available at other places if folks wants to keep up.

[Frank Davis MLIS @francisrdavis]

We have ventured past a point of respectability. Folks view morals and manners as impediments to Ubi Est Mia. The notion of altruism no longer works. All acts are transactional. The question we all have to ask is what’s our 30 pieces of Silver?

@royalpratt @LeighGiangreco This is not a surprise in the turnout. It is the Feature, not the Bug.

[Frank Davis MLIS @francisrdavis]

Well that was a disappointment.

A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for hate, because he offers nothing else; no policy, no plans, no kindness, no decency.

No politician is perfect, but a vote for Kamala Harris is a vote for a better, shared future. I hope you join me in bringing that future unto being.

@royalpratt I avoided the crowds a while ago. Trying to live a less anxious life in 2024.

Good morning everyone. Have a safe Election Day out there if you are in the states. Keep your head down, power through, and good luck to everyone with stuff happening in the professional and personal arena.

@McLauchlin These interviews always brought me joy. They are the definition of being out of f’s to give.

2) Even with tariffs, we’ll still be printing overseas —the only result will be higher costs for publishers that will invariably result in higher retail prices for consumers. If you think books are already expensive, just wait.

[Eric Reynolds @earinc]

1) Like graphic novels? Know that Trump’s proposed tariffs will substantially raise prices on them for consumers. Costs for offset printing in North America are already SO much higher (often TWICE as high, and the quality is lower, and the options fewer) than in Asia and Europe.

@brianazzarello Demand exceeded supply feels classy.

I finally had a chance to get this ancient issue of the Comics Journal to read the Chaykin interview. It was an interesting moment in time for Chaykin and interviewer Gary Groth.
