I was thinking about our world lockdown over the next several weeks here, and also that something we’ll need is more books, comics, fun things to read and occupy ourselves so we’re not perpetually sitting here panicking at the news. It means culture’s more important than ever. We need uplifting, real heroes, ones who are […]

Hurry up and get to backing, friends. Don’t miss what’s going to be some of the funnest superhero work you’ve read. You can count on my compelling storytelling, character development, heroism, humor and more with this great book.

I’ve done a lot of work on youtube lately highlighting how clickbait impacts people and trying to urge my audience to stop clicking on it. Only by shifting messaging to something positive are we going to make any real culture change, even if it seems like beating our heads against the wall constantly. The next […]

What’s up, true believers? We’re back with yet MORE comic content. This time is a release directly to Patreon subscribers, which will be exclusive for at least the time being. I’m trying to drive more traffic to Patreon because it’s funding I can count on month in and month out, which is important for building […]

Ben Zwycky made a song in praise to the glorious God of all creation, a good Christian man who’s been extremely helpful in getting the word out about the Von Monocle series since day one. He proofread the first couple of books and made a nice audio trailer early on if you might remember him. […]

If you saw the craziness this weekend, Fantastic Four and former Amazing Spider-Man writer Dan Slott went on a bizarre tirade regarding President Trump — an moreover, anyone who votes for the President. You can read the full rant here. Bounding Into Comics, of course, covered the topic as they should being a comic news […]

The reality of youtube and any social media is you gotta clickbait to get clicks. Here’s overnight views between clickbait (left) and me just promoting a book I love for the sake of promoting art (right).

Here’s a handy list (yes reddit acutally did something right for once) so you can go down and make sure you’ve got supplies. There may be a time soon when you’ll want to quarantine your family […]

Valiant Comics’ resurgence was quite an amazing success story. Former CEO Dinesh Shamdasani really lined up some of the best talent available to recreate the characters from the short-lived 1992 Jim Shooter experiment of Valiant, a company that also had a very promising beginning, and was bought by Acclaim for video game production, soon tanking […]

What a crazy week again. It seems these old white women in science fiction will stop at nothing to make sure they have a monolithic undiverse environment as I’ve been targeted and harassed by a bay area convention again. Here’s the email they sent: The unfortunate part is that these groups are wising up to […]

Talking to Tom was incredible. He’s by far my favorite comic writer because his work ethic is unsurpassed, plus he’s got that pulp-style aesthetic to his books which couples positive heroism with the great soap opera drama that Stan Lee brought to his audience and changed the comic landscape forever. If anything, the takeaway is […]

Disney just announced yesterday that Bob Iger is no longer going to be CEO in a carefully worded statement. Their stocks fell pretty hard after the announcement. This fresh off the heels of Dan DiDio’s removal as Co-Publisher at AT&T-owned DC Comics. The latter was easy to see coming, as DC desperately needs a shakeup […]

Contrary to the way it’s presented by President Trump, failure happens to everyone at some point. There are always high points and low points in anyone’s lives or careers. Everyone takes an L at some point and it can seem really hard to get back up from. But the mindset that helps people through it […]
