A two panel comic of Loki from A Bad God's Guide to Being Good. In the first panel he's looking breezy and innocent and holding up a book. He's saying, "I think it's great that children read prose novels." In the second panel, he's looking more mischievous and saying, "It's a perfectly GATEWAY to comics."
Let's kill "comics are a gateway to reading" dead please?

It's that time in my Making comics intro course when I talk image-text relations, which gives me an excuse to share 2 favorite comics that do bewildering things that can only be done in comics!

a snippet of a mini-comic, at top - straight line stretches from point A to B. Immediately below, same dot at A, then becomes a curving, meandering line that winds through the page and ends at a point with rays and a question mark emanating from it. Text reads: "Nothing can do this for you - for that robs you of experience and conflates answers with learning. Rather, it's all the decisions you make along the way, the mistakes, struggles, and surprises! These pathways you create - this is learning. https://spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-syllabi/

A digital illustration done in black and white graphite style. Toshiro Mifune as his unnamed ronin character in Yojimbo. With both swords prominently on view in his belt, he has his arms pulled inside of his black kimono with one hand coming up through the collar to stroke his chin as he gives some sharp side eye to the right, scheming. In a text box in the upper right corner is what I sincerely hope is an accurate Japanese translation of ‘maybe it will happen today’.
Wow.
Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…
Do you think it's possible he just wrote this dialog straight up, or did he have to hit himself in the head with a hammer seven or eight times beforehand?

This is an awesome essay on probably my favorite Alan Moore-written comic/one of the best works of historical fiction in any medium.

I had the pleasure of interviewing the incomparable @angeliqueroche.bsky.social about First Freedom, her upcoming graphic novel, written by Roche & published by @oni-press.bsky.social. The research & care she put into this is clear, and a reminder of how vital works like this are now more than ever.
Great final line.
