God lord, that’s a shit hot band. (Begins googling “Tropical Fuck Storm tour”)
Yeah, it’s a shame - what they put in the trailer was so tantalizing. I am definitely much more into the pre-JNT era, but seeing them do their thing in this trailer really activated that old 80s vibe for me in a way I didn’t think possible. Would be so great to see it play out properly
Medium shot of Hellboy with a cigar
Drawn for Hellboy's 33rd anniversary (hoping I got the year right). Been a fan since seeing the cover tease of Next Men with HB on the cover and I though the horns were a pair of goggles on his head.
Still so fun to draw fanart of Mike Mignola's second most important kid all these years later.
The preview trailer for that really did a number on me. Can’t wait to get my paws on it
Haven’t seen it since it was new but IIRC, my only beef with the movie was how his talkie was so lousy. It rang false to me. Probably just my bias, I love the early talkie era and knowing how many great films were made then, I didn’t see why he was suddenly incompetent. Liked it otherwise.
Excellent! I’ll have a look and DM you with what I find 👍
Wait, was that really obvious and I missed you alluding to it on the show? I have been known to miss the point of things 🤷♂️
Another terrific episode. Fun to hear Alley Oop show up! FWIW, I always took “mean motorscooter” to be a funny substitution for the four syllable m-word which ends in “er” that one might expect to be preceded by “mean”
Ehh I’m sure that took like 20 minutes
Oh really! I might have an extra comp I can send you. It looks like she’s done a revised edition since then (the original was from 2000) so the newer one may be preferable.

Outstanding 👏👏👏👏
Debs feared that the presence of Federal troops in Chicago would serve, not to keep the peace, but to inflame the populace, and he heatedly told a United Press reporter: The first shots fired by the regular soldiers at the mobs here will be the signal for a civil war. I believe this as firmly as I believe in the ultimate success of our course. Bloodshed will follow, and ninety percent of the people of the United States will be arrayed against the other ten per cent. And I would not care to be arrayed against the laboring people in the contest or find myself out of the ranks of labor when the struggle ended. This prediction proved all too true. Although there had been brief but serious outbreaks in the suburbs on June 30 and July 2, no violence had occurred in Chicago before July 5. On that day railroad tracks were blocked, a freight train was stalled, a signal house was burned. The regular soldiers made a bayonet charge against a crowd, and several people were injured....The presence of the Army had indeed proved to be a "signal for civil war," as Debs said; but the hundreds of special Federal deputy marshals had an even worse effect. Since men with regular employment were unwilling to accept these temporary jobs, Marshal Arnold had deputized labor spies, professional strikebreakers, racketeers, petty gangsters, the flotsam and jetsam of the city. Several public officials fiercely attacked these special deputies. Governor Waite of Colorado called them "desperadoes" who had been hired "without any regard for their qualifications but simply for military purposes." On July 6 near Pullman, where a mob of hoodlums was overturning freight cars, one of these deputies deliberately killed an innocent spectator
Reading about the Pullman Strike, where the President illegally sent troops into Chicago, newspapers lied about violence from protestors, and federal marshals deputized every unemployable loser and criminal they could find to shoot people at random. Whew, glad nothing like that happens anymore!
Book titled “The Chicago River - a natural and unnatural history” is seen on a polished wooden table, inside a lushly appointed room. The cover shows two photos, one of a river choked by weeds, the other of the Chicago river in the early 20th century, packed with industrial development.
Picture of me smiling as I hold my book and point to it. I’m a bald white guy with reddish brown and gray beard and glasses. I’m wearing a red zip sweater with white stripes iPhone side. Behind me is a packed wooden bookshelf and a framed poster on a green wall. The poster says Pullman and shows a Victorian factory with clock tower

During our visit to the Pullman National Historical Park we got a delicious coffee and pastry at the Pullman Club Coffee House. It’s inside a beautiful mansion from the period, and I found one of my book covers on the shelf there! Always incredible to see my work in the wild
Front view of the old Pullman factory at 111th and Cottage Grove in Chicago, now home to the Pullman National Historical Park. It’s a massive Victorian red brick structure with a clock tower and the word PULLMAN laid out in large stone letters on the lawn in front.

South Gate of the Pullman factory. An ornate wrought iron gate connects to a solidly build gatehouse made of cream colored stone. It has a peaked roof and a lamppost. In the background, the extensive grounds are visible along with one of the ruined workshops
Beautiful visit to the Pullman National Historical Park here in Chicago yesterday. So much to take in. The tour was really informative, and I’m so grateful to all who have worked so hard to preserve the neighborhood and present the history so well. An incredibly important piece of history. GO!
That glass is class 😍
Visited Pullman yesterday. Was blown away. From their website: “The park tells the story of America's first planned model industrial community, the sleeping car magnate who created it, and the workers who lived there. The park is significant for its influence on railroad transportation, …

Oof, that’s it exactly. The cognitive dissonance between the hopes I had for it twenty years ago and the reality of what it is now is a bitter-ass pill to have to swallow every day
Thinking about the future, I have a hard time even seeing a place for the internet, which now seems less like a component of a futuristic utopia than an old glue trap we are stuck and dying on.
Yours is the only correct answer 🫡

Watch it all.
You will not be disappointed.
So glad to see this getting so much love. The Archers are my favorite filmmakers from all of cinema, and this is a strong contender for their best. Their movies are all so richly humane but this one even more so. Just a beautiful film. So daring, so ambitious, and they make it all work
Ha, my first was part two of this, Red Rackham’s Treasure. Didn’t catch up with part one until many years later.
