I bet you didn't know you needed a one hour deep-dive aesthetic analysis of the late great Keith Giffen's short-lived TRENCHER Image series... here it is anyway! Recorded last year in a giddy, sparkling haze that suits the book itself. https://t.co/3H9ZOF4I2o

In March 2024, a window opens to new vistas of comics unseen.

Visions of Nordic introspectiveness, occult pocket watches, suburban drifting, untamed forests and butterfly appreciation all come together in a sticky weave of cutting-edge Finnish comics storytelling.

Wallace Polsom, whose always enjoyable posts are one of the only reasons I haven't abandoned this accursed platform, identifies the mystery illustrator of the Wrinkle cover. Mentioned ln the new Endless Thread episode dedicated to the hunt.

I’ve had the privilege of watching MOONRAY come to life. Brandon Graham takes seemingly effortless clean lines and transforms them into entirely unique landscapes and adventures page after page. His imagination is endless. @LivingtheLine_

@eigenrobot We should have a few possible weekends in august. I'll send you a message :-) miss you guys.

[Sean Michael Robinson @OgdenSMR]

@eigenrobot Heck yes. We are long overdue!!

@eigenrobot Great analysis here about probably my favorite graphic novel of all time. I think you could read most of Dave's career as a war between his storytelling and didactic impulses. definitely a tug and pull that resolves itself in different ways at different stages.

@KenParille Thanks for the great posts Ken!

@ColleenDoran Thanks for all of the decades of incredible work. Don't let the idiots get you down!

@kthorjensen How about XTC. Sure they got plenty of recognition but nothing in proportion to what they deserved. Pick any era and there's plenty of utterly unique material to choose from.

[Sean Michael Robinson @OgdenSMR]

@kthorjensen Hmmm
Free Design?

@deppey Take care of yourself Dirk.
