A thought. Most of the entertainments which are sustaining you and your family right now were made by creatives whose modes of work are tacitly excluded from the government's aid, and who face months of opportunity-drought. Tend to your needs, then - please - support the arts.

In comics, every visual and spatial cue is magically converted in the reader's mind into the passage of time, the flare of emotion, the connective gristle of cause and effect. If you DON'T have a letterer as wildly, instintively inventive as Hass, your toolbox is only half open.

Pro-tip for literally anyone in the world, ever ever ever, who is in the business of corresponding with creative freelancers: if the answer's "no", fucking say so. Your silence does not help Said Freelancer move on to the next thing.

These little bits of Rashomon storytelling are one of the many reasons the joined-up thinking of the X-office is such a breath of fresh air. The continuity-completist mentality should always be a bonus, never a hurdle. #XSpoilers

Bad news/good news re: LEGION OF X. #marvel #xmen #XSpoilers Bad news: for Real World reasons that have nothing to do with creators, editorial or management, LOX #1 will now drop on 25TH MAY. Good news: this means we have a lil more time for Final Orders. So: ORDER! QUICK!

Out with my two year old son the other day, he stopped his tricycle and spent a while staring at an elderly couple as they ambled past holding hands. Then he turned to me and said, with great solemnity: "They are monsters, in the dark." Then rode off.

Awake to a creator mailout from a major comics publisher getting all steamy about the possibilities of NFT and saying not a single word about the literally planet-fucking energy costs.

5 years later, still laughing like an idiot who can't believe his luck. Marry your best mate, chums. I can recommend it. (Bonus points if she's an unstoppable warrior queen with a ridiculous brain and an excellent bum.) This is what is best in life, Conan. cc @TinyMaster

Tell you what's a giggle: all the chitchat on a ludicrously popular comicbook piracy site being about how dreadful it is that DC cancelled #Hellblazer . [headsplode deskspatter soulcrumble]
