In DOOMQUEST #5, Doom's journey though time leaves his mind in the body of SUSAN STORM. How will Latverian's ruler deal with an invading Galactus and, more pressingly, the Invisible Girl's partner - his archnemesis REED RICHARDS? Pick.ip the issue at your comic store TODAY to find out!

Comics pals! This is my favorite thing I do all year: ALASKA COMICS CAMP. Cartoonists from all over North America (& the world!) gather at camp outside Juneau for self-taught classes on cartooning, business and FRIENDSHIP. It's pure and joy-filled and every year I leave with a full heart. Join us!

If you are in comics, or comics adjacent, or you like comics and also mountains and beaches, or making things by hand, or you’re — and be honest with yourself here — a massive dork in at least a few arenas (raises hand), ahhh you gotta try Alaska Comics Camp.

why are there several emoji for blood (🩸🅰️🆎🅱️🅾️) yet no emoji accounting for excesses of the other three humors? for phlegm, nothing. for yellow bile, nada. and for black bile, zippo. an astonishing oversight

And while we're on the subject: there's no ethical use of a product brought to market through unethical means. It doesn't matter whether the product is "AI" or chocolate or diamonds. Most generative "AI" was knowingly developed through massive theft from creatives; we have the emails admitting this.

Ryan North reposted

The acid test for me is a simple one: Has my professional and/or creative life benefited in any material way from "AI," and very specifically generative "AI"? No, it hasn't. Has it been negatively impacted by the same? Yup, in a whole bunch of ways. My professional life is worse now for it.

This was a fun game - show me an image, and then I have to name the artist and book. ALSO: the only quiet place we could find to film was my hotel room, so please enjoy this rare footage of RYAN NORTH on his BED wearing nothing but SHORTS and a SMILE (and also OTHER CLOTHING)

The oceanic pole of inaccessibility (Point Nemo, 48°52.6′S 123°23.6′W), is famous for two things. First, for being the single point on the planet where you are as far from land as it is possible to be. Second, for being a MEMORABLY bad hotel www.qwantz.com/index.php?co...

Just announced at NYCC: there's going to be a MURDOCH MYSTERIES comic!! I'm writing it, @jasonloo.bsky.social is drawing and colouring, and lettering is by Andrew Thomas. It's a Canadian all-star team and I am really excited to share this with you all! Soon! SOOOON.

Also, before the panel I met Yannick and Paul (we're all clearly on a first-name basis) and got to show them photos of my dog Murdoch. I am a fun guy to meet who will show you photos of his dog and then point to the dog and say "that's you"

Currently at the bathroom at NYCC having the worst shit of my life and someone outside of my stall says "Erica Henderson is here" and it takes me a few seconds to realize they mean the con and not the toilet
