"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm going to guess prior prep with photos of the sidewalk from the intended vantage point and at least a sketchy outline plotted to get the perspective right. If the artist is doing that on the spot from mental image alone I'd be gobsmacked

I’m tempted to go to this today and scream, “YOU KILLED CYPHER!!” at Louise Simonson.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm pretty sure Theo would kiss you if you did.

Bryan Talbot has a new book out with his wife, Mary, about Lucia Joyce (daughter of James).

I really loved his Alice in Sunderland which I recommend.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The Death and Return of Superman. Amusing nerd rant with a lot of cameos, including Elijah Wood as Cyborg Superman.

That’s the same guy who did the Knightfall video. (And also the guy who has a feature film out in theaters this week).

It reminded me of the Knightfall video! So that makes sense! And he's responsible for Chronicle ? I noticed the shirt.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I read the original rant was 45 minutes and they cut it down to 15 for for the video.

Anyone else read Superman: Up, Up and Away? I was surprised by how much I liked it. I don't really care about Superman, but...now I kind of do. At least the Busiek/Johns Superman.
