The King of Wrestling Comics! Story/art collabs w/ the biggest names in wrestling! Publisher: Headlocked, Tales From The Road. Tweets: HL creator Mike Kingston
This weekend, I'll be a guest at the Jerry Lawler celebration in Evansville, Indiana.
The show will also feature a wrestling legends convention, a concert from Jeff Hardy, and a women's tournament.
This is going to be an incredible event and a super low ticket price!
Bischoff and Heyman at bar, circa 2001
EB: We’ll never beat Vince.
PH: I have a plan. Mark my words, Eric..18 yrs from now, he’ll be begging us to take over.
EB: But how?
Heyman slides a picture of a 17 yr Baron Corbin across the table.
Bischoff smiles.
*end scene*
AEW has done a tremendous job of building characters to appeal to younger viewers: The skateboarder, The YouTuber, a living anime girl, an alien, and Orange Cassidy.
More of this, everywhere, please.
Starks and Hobbs have been consistently the most underutilized members of the men’s roster.
Sky’s the limit for both.
Really hoping this means more for both of them.

By any metric, Kenny Omega has had one hell of a 365 days.
AEW champ, AEW tag champ, AAA champ, interpromotional matches, exploding death match, tag team MOTY and now an interpromotional title vs title.
And that’s with half the world shut down.
2019 is coming up...let’s try something new.
1. Don’t pop into threads unsolicited to tell people you hate the thing they love.
No one cares about your hot takes and being antagonistic has never changed anyone’s mind.
You wanna change a mind...tell em why you love something.
Rey Mysterio is the best wrestler in the world.
The nature of WWE TV makes it difficult to have very memorable performances.
Rey has had more PPV quality TV matches this year than a lot of folks have had PPV quality PPV matches.
I feel like this run has been his finest work.
Excited to announce a collaboration with
@OneHourTees
to bring some of our wrestling/comic mashup designs to their site.
These 7 shirts just dropped and are available for their Black Friday sale.
Lightning Kid vs Jerry Lynn = only thing you remember about GWF.
Razor upset = one of most memorable moments of Manhattan Center Raw
Kliq tag match = only thing you remember from Action Zone.
Post-WM14 one of defining promos of Attitude Era.
@TheRealXPac
= Hall of Famer.
I guess since this is going to do numbers....I make cool fucking wrestling comics and I've collaborated with over 40 wrestlers on stories and art. Check em out.
I’m not exaggerating to say that
@manscoutmanning
got one of the biggest pure babyface pops I’ve seen in years at
@newwrestling1
. People were so invested in him winning...when’s the last time you saw a crowd react like this to an actual match finish?
People always ask me at cons: are you WWE or AEW? Are you Marvel or DC?
I'm pro-artist. I support the talent that I like and respect.
I ain't going to war over some acronym conceived by billionaires. Make the content I want with the artists I want and I'm there as a consumer.
Super excited to drop The Beacon...an original short story I co-wrote with

We’re all very proud of this one, so any signal boost is appreciated.
Danhausen is extremely popular and one of the rare characters who reaches beyond wrestling fans.
If you don’t want to push him in-ring, that’s fine…but I will never understand the idea of using him for squashes.
This is our final piece for

GCW fans know what’s up. There isn’t a person in that crowd that doesn’t respect Cardona but this is the story GCW is telling and this is how they’re expected to react.
They did this for RSP last yr when he beat Gage so I’m sure Cardona was prepped to expect empty bottles/cans.
I know wrestling fans can be tribal as fuck but there’s no way anyone can say that AEW and Tony Khan didn’t do six million kinds of right by Sting.
His legend has grown so much bigger thanks to this run.
Everyone involved should take a bow.
Be careful when sharing images of protesters. Blur their faces if you do and do not dox anyone.
Once the cameras are off, there’s no protection for them.
Carmella is awesome.
She’s been paired w/ Ellsworth, Truth, New Day, and now Naomi and shes always found a way to present herself w/in their gimmicks and stay true to her character at the same time.
I got mad respect for that.
This Friday night at

I was first introduced to Shad online through a mutual friend to set up an appearance at SDCC.
While waiting for him to arrive, one of my other guests said “Now when you meet Shad, you’re going to think his stories are bullshit but I promise you...they’re all true.”

Comicsgate dudes acting like a store not carrying your books is discrimination.
I raised 100K on Kickstarter and I’m not in a lot of stores. Most retailers don’t carry indies. I figured out a viable way to get my stuff out. A lot of others have too.
Motherfucker, that’s comics.
Down to the last 4 days to get your hands on the Kickstarter-exclusive

Proceeds of every Danhausen cover backed are going to Danhausen’s recovery fund.
Last night, my best friend crossed the rainbow bridge while lying in my arms.
I’ve spent more time with Gir in the last 15 years than anyone.
I miss him so much already. I’d trade everything I’ve accomplished in this life to just have a few more days.
My forever best buddy.
WWE needs to make Wrestlemania a two night event.
Too many matches are suffering from lack of crowd heat bc the show has 85 wrestlers and is 10 hours long.
Announcing our next Tales From The Road collab. We teamed with

Luke Harper is a main event talent. He can do big man stuff, he can hang with smaller guys, singles/tags, and he can cut main event level promos.
I say, let em do Big Rig, give him a microphone and get the fuck out of his way.
At last it can finally be revealed! Check out

Not sure why Lita wasn’t there. She was one half of the first ever women’s match to main event Raw and the most important female wrestler of that entire generation.

This isn’t “real heat” any more than anything is real heat anymore. It’s a smart, loyal crowd providing the atmosphere the angle needed.

Appearing at Booth 1901 on Thursday from 4pm to 6pm and Friday from 12pm to 2pm..
He’s very nice. And as it turns out, also very evil.

Controversial opinion: you can like AEW and WWE. You can also like GCW, ROH, Impact, and the indies. All at the same time!
Being a fan of something is the best.
Criticizing something is also fine.
Shit talking someone for liking something you don't is dumb and childish.
