Thread of past books you might want to get your hands on!
first up is MOBILIS, MY LIFE WITH CAPTAIN NEMO. A massive book about two people in a submarine, trying to build a bond (and survive giant sea monsters) after the end of the world. Get it here

Jack Kirby put it best when he said super heroes ought to be a model of how to be better people, concentrating the best in all of us.
So f*ck off with your evil superman and fanboy hyperfocus on using power to kill and control. That’s the antithesis of the concept

And it’s a very fun and all ages oriented book. I want both kids and adults to get a sense of the fun adventuring of kid super heroes while reading a story that doesn’t assume that kids need to be talked down to. BTAS is a big influence in that way

This argument that being critical of the MCU’s bland corporatism is because you can’t just be a kid again and enjoy the films. That argument is crap because I know what a great super hero movie that makes me feel like a kid looks like

I appreciate Del Toro so much because there’s zero irony in his films.
There’s a lot of genre stuff made now, but a lot of it feels overly serious or too jokey. His stuff feels earnest. It inspires me so much.

Kid Cosmic is magnificent and any time allocated to this PPG reboot could be time spent watching it! If you like cartoons especially, like you liked PPG, you’ll love this
Because some have asked, I do not own any rights to Powerpuff Girls & have zero control over what happens with them. Additionally I have no involvement in the live action PPG series. If your looking for reality based superhero stories told by me, check out

There‘s a real drive here to capture some adventurous fun as well as heartfelt humanity. The story of a kid who was hurt a lot, raised wrong, and who has to learn to navigate conflicting sets of expectations from both his families, with fear of not being good enough for either.

Idk dude. French readers been pirating manga and yet we’re the biggest western legal consumers of it. We made conventions just for it. It’s almost like easy free access on the web drove physical purchases up or something. Also this idea that “no money, no culture” is a bit sad

While it’s understandable, considering it’s Black Label, media platforms call BOY WONDER adults only, but tbh I was aiming more for 13 to 70. There is some cartoon blood and a rough kill which you can see in the preview (treated as the serious act it is), and this joke

At the beginning of my career I didn’t want to be typecast. I also wanted to play with a few things. Now that I’ve managed both goals, I’m gonna get back to the type of comics I wanna make the most. Gonna be a lot like these!

The current media landscape thrives on “This is the first time”-ing everything, episode 2819372
I can understand the sentiment behind this, but charlize theron has not toiled for years as the exact definition of "female-led action movie that isn't from marvel" for this kind of disrespect!

I make fun of MCU Stan’s fighting over which character is the most powerful, as if that metric supersedes quality of writing or their attributes as a person, but really I’m scared by that tendency to use power as the metric of value for a character. I’m scared of those who do it
