Awful news. When I owned a comic shop, Persepolis was the first thing I showed people looking for a gift for their friend who hadn't read comics before. An inspiring and truly accessible work. RIP.
North Carolina, I'm heading over to Charlotte for HeroesCon this weekend!
Come to Booth AA-602/03 for signings on Friday, Saturday, AND Saturday. Plus, stop by Room 209CDEF for an Absolute Universe panel on Sunday!
If you read Immortal Hulk and thought Dario Agger didn't pay enough, check out Mortal Thor 11 for his showdown with Sigurd Jarlson. I'll miss Sigurd, his ways & equipment, when whatever comes next happens. If you didn't read this, you missed out on something special from @al-ewing.bsky.social.
So excited for everyone to finally see MASK 1 by @danpgwatters.bsky.social & Pye Parr. Mask was part of my afterschool regimen, but unlike Transformers & Joe I forgot it. This has the elements of the show, but with the dial turned up. So much thought goes into Energon Universe! Buy with confidence!
If you've been reading Captain America since issue 1 and caught Wolverine Weapons of Armageddon then you're more than ready for Avengers Armageddon. If you haven't, then you have to roll with some things that'll be news to you. But if you're into it, now you know what your homework is.
I'm not attached to Firestorm at all. I know him from the Super Friends cartoon & some comics. But Fury of Firestorm 3 makes a big alteration to his origin. I think its there & I think it works. But its big as far as what is Firestorm/what was it supposed to have been? Curious to see how it goes..
While driving home last night after a daunting Acme Comics New Comic Book Day I remembered right at opening, 11 hours earlier, as our customers came one said to me “you’re doing good work” & patted me on the shoulder. Seemed a lifetime ago, but I remembered & smiled just a bit. Thanks Mr Anthony.
Shoutout to Absolute Catwoman, Avengers Armageddon, & special attention to MASK for getting people out of their houses and routines and into Acme Comics and other shops across the country today for a near record breaker here!
I saw the tv versions of both first but still what a time to be alive and discovering things.
