Not to mention how much better small indie publishers product is right now
Is it just me or is every episode of Shrinking structured like a series finale? Wait, is that the point?
The toyfair coverage by @pixeldan.bsky.social was exceptional

What I find really heartening is the creativity happening in the toy space right now from the indie brands and even the big names
Now I’m just thinking of a pebble with a domino mask on it. Much better than the actual thing
Caved and got another backpack. I’m pretty sure I have one for each day of the week now
Truth
Think they need glasses
Self cover comics are the scourge of the direct market
Malevolent 1 comic book on sweet shop app
Wrestle Heist 2 comic book on sweet shop app
Bug Wars: The Spyder Wytch special comic book on sweet shop app
GI Joe 18 comic book on sweet shop app
I’ve waited a while to do this! First new comic book day with @sweetshop.app and this is what I’m looking forward to: Malevolent 1, WrestleHeist 2, Bug Wars: The Spyder Witch Special, and GI Joe 18!
What’s everyone looking forward to this week?
Agree, Marvel struggles with trying to do legacy characters so much. Falcon is such a great character in both comics and film, and deserves better than placeholder until new contracts are negotiated

I mean just look at the care here, from the badges with the issue numbers, indicators where you are in the series, to creator profiles. This isn’t “content” this is comics.
The @sweetshop.app team have managed to create the feeling you get when visiting the best comic shops.
Testing @sweetshop.app and folks, it's a gem. Even on my 2018 iPad it's smooth and responsive. Those page turns feel just right, the interactions intuitive, and the care put into the categorisation for discovery of comics is exceptional. This is the comic book app we need

Is this Tills btw? I’ve found some absolute gems there like silver age Dell/Gold Key
Aaand this is why I can’t bring myself to read Prime anymore, even though it has some of the best artwork in the line
Just listened to this episode and feeling inspired to go buy more comics right this instant

I remember talking to an indie creator at a con whose book I got digitally from Amazon during a sale.
They told me that discount not only was done without asking, but meant he got no share.
Bought a physical copy of their comic on the spot.

New Balance 574 trainers and Kamen Rider, both share the same colour scheme
Got some new trainers because something about the colourway spoke to me... then it dawned on me it's literally Kamen Rider's colours and I'm so happy
It is time.
DC/Marvel: Batman/Deadpool #1 - lead story by Grant Morrison and Dan Mora www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/book/...
This book is so much better than it has any right to be. Morrison is having so much fun and Dan Mora is honestly the current pinnacle of superhero comics art
Absolute Flash by Jeff Lemire and Nick Robles www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/serie...
This is the sci-fi book that I always wanted Flash to be. Again getting to the core, the silver age was all about the sci-fi reinvention of golden age characters, this series pushes that concept forward
Absolute Wonder Woman by Kelly Thompson and Hayden Sherman www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/serie...
Every one of the Absolute books are brilliant, but this gem is quickly becoming an all time favourite for me. Thompson truly understands the core of a character who is most often mischaracterised.
Absolute Martian Manhunter by Denis Camp and Javier Rodriguez www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/serie...
I’m super late to the party on this one, the twist on the classic Martian Manhunter concept reminds me of the best of Vertigo comics. The art is exceptional and mind bending in the best way
Supergirl by Sophie Campbell www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/comics/serie...
Sophie is telling fun, episodic comics that play in the current dc sandbox of “everything happened” which also includes all the stuff that aged badly and becomes a great springboard for modern storytelling.
Just spent a delightful Sunday morning catching up on DC books. I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that @mariejavins.bsky.social is the best editor in chief DC has ever had.
The creative teams for these books are just exceptional
thanks! yep MTNU 800 - I like it so far, seems like a nice balance between the retro SA profile look while keeping the typing ergonomics of cherry or OEM
