"Slash Them All" has been on my top horror shelf for a while. It was a pleasure writing about it and talking with creator Antoine Maillard. #comics #comicsky #graphicnovel #illustration @antoinemaillard-bd.bsky.social @fantagraphics.bsky.social

I had a delightful chat with talented artist @antoinemaillard-bd.bsky.social about his book “Slash Them All,” which has reserved spot in my top shelf horror section. @fantagraphics.bsky.social

In the mood for some spooky season reads? Flat Donkey recommends Totem by Laura Pérez, Spa by Erik Svetoft, Nijigahara Holograph by Inio Asano, and Alberto Breccia's Dracula! https://ow.ly/i9C450ZWZhp

Part 1-I had a blast making this post. Happy Halloween to the wonderful creators whose work is represented. @lauraperezgranel.bsky.social @sebcosset.bsky.social @goraina.bsky.social @celineloup.bsky.social #comics #graphicnovels

Part-2: Shoutout to some amazing creators: @mikemignola.bsky.social @wocco.bsky.social cco.bsky.social @eriksvetoft.bsky.social @writerras.bsky.social @ffrancavilla.bsky.social villa.bsky.social #comics #graphicnovels

"... in Requiem for Gaza, Hedges and Sacco defiantly offer us a history of this genocide from the Palestinian perspective, to honor the survivors and dignify the countless lives that have already been lost." -- The Arts STL https://ow.ly/XLfx50ZVyrv

It’s troubling enough that an artist’s style, that they labored and sacrificed to attain, can be lifted so blatantly and legally. Taking their signature, which signifies authenticity, seems not only criminal but shameful. Thanks to @niemanlab.org for the article. #comics #creators #ai

As you’ll be able to tell, I enjoyed 'The Book Tour 2' and lost a considerable amount of sleep—and gained a great deal of pleasure—attempting to solve the crime. @andicomics.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com @topshelfcomix.bsky.social #graphicnovels

What a treat to see Leah Hayes talk about her graphic novel, ‘Identical’ tonight at @soi128.bsky.social . Double treat — it was hosted by @meglemke.bsky.social.

‘Identical’, a new graphic novel by Leah Hayes, pulled me in, leveraging my preexisting feelings about sisterly bonds (I have two daughters) and artificial intelligence. And deranged scientists. @fantagraphics.bsky.social

Are you a lost soul? @sevenstories.bsky.social #graphicnovels #comics

@gemmacorrell.bsky.social's memoir, "Anxietyland", is a valuable resource and a great read. If you or someone you know is struggling, in distress, or having thoughts of suicide, immediate help is available. Call or text 988, or chat online at 988lifeline.org. #comics #indiecomics #graphicnovel

It look like Flat Donkey is officially official. My supportive wife and chief comics enabler, Michele, just surprised me with this mug. ❤️❤️❤️

Hmmmm. Tossing around ideas for something Halloweeny. Stay tuned. #comics #graphicnovels #halloween

‘Charity & Sylvia’ is one of those books that lingers with you after you’ve finished it, as if the characters are people you know and think about. @dandq.bsky.social #comics

I remember becoming nauseated at the Mütter Museum in Philadelphia, realizing that the displays I was looking at were parts or real people. I recalled that visit while reading this book. However, I was far from nauseated while reading. Quite the opposite—I was glued. @dandq.bsky.social #comics

What my copy of “Charity & Sylvia” looks like right now. I’ve finished reading. Let my thoughts bubble. Review coming your way. Thank you Tillie Walden and @dandq.bsky.social 🤔

I’m not proud of my first reaction to “Proxy Mom: My Experience with Postpartum Depression”, which is why I posted my honest review. It’s an important book by @sophieadriansen.bsky.social and Matthou. #comics #graphic-novels #postpartum-depression

This beautiful book was a library find. It jumped out at me from the shelf, and I'm so glad it did. Thanks Taiyo Matsumoto and @viz.com. #comics, #manga, #seinen

It was a pleasure spending time in Thomas Ott's haunting and delightful forest, published by @fantagraphics.bsky.social #comics

Congrats and good luck to all of the nominees!

Ooh. This looks interesting.
