2 kofta kabobs, a side of falafel, and a Pepsi

It’s absolutely bonkers how often they set him up with a complete softball and he’s like, “Yeah, the thing is, I don’t care about other people. Like, at all. LOL.’

And that’s that! Now to sit back and enjoy @danschkade.bsky.social’s strip while he does ALL of the work. Dan’s a force of nature, I have no idea how he sustains the output by himself, and keep it consistently great at the same time

Rereading Flash Gordon by @danschkade.bsky.social from the start and I am yet again struck by the perfection of the comic strip form, the combination of art, color and text. The dialogue is flawless. Here is the first strip, bookmark and read later. Trust me. comicskingdom.com/flash-gordon...

Oh yeah no the Tusk Men are HUGE jobbers

I've been reading a lot of Golden Age superhero stories recently & thinking about how the good guys used to fight the real ills of society but now so many stories involve nonsense cosmic threats with no meaningful stakes. Lavender Jack feels like a return to the roots of superhero comics (& pulps).

WEDNESDAY EVENING BONUS: My designs for the dragonman uniforms. At first I played around with a more 70s American GI look (green clothes and gear, etc) but that almost immediately turned into Rogue Trooper, so I pivoted into the dark fantasy Kira vibe instead. It's where they're from, after all.

If you’re having trouble telling them apart, Geese sounds like the members of the Strokes were drafted into Pavement against their will, and Goose sounds like 4 CPAs were hired to form a jam band sponsored by Whole Foods.
