Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.
He has no clue what he’s doing in Iran. [Cartoon by Brendan Loper]

There's all the energy for ending Johnathan Majors entire career over domestic abuse, but no energy for ending a presidency over sex-trafficking, falsifying business records, sexual abuse and defamation, business fraud, systematic racial discrimination and let's just throw in adultery.
I need to start a newsletter because I can't write a lot of stuff that I want to and should at least get paid for it if I do.
Just me popping off behind the paywall.
The Killers,
Le Tigre,
The Strokes,
Interpol,
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs,
Modest Mouse,
and The White Stripes are...
classical music. 🪦
And... Pam Lifford and Daniel Cherry were heading the company. 💅🏽
This is a FASCINATING discussion about the US war on Iran and what the outcomes are likely to be.

A great discussion between @fantasticfrankey.bsky.social and @josephpillidge.bsky.social about THE DAKOTA INCIDENT, Milestone Media, and Black comic book creation as a whole.
I do have thoughts...

As the world tips toward war, Cobra Commander sets a final trap; force a public act to destroy America’s moral authority and legitimize Cobra as the alternative. G.I. Joe must stop him without becoming the proof he needs; if they overreach, he wins the story, and if they hesitate, he wins the world.
He tests the tech quietly, using it to pull strings at high levels. A general misfires. A minister flips. A crisis “happens” on schedule. Once he proves he can bend governments without firing a shot he take a name and a mask: Cobra Commander, and builds Cobra an insurgent network.
A Russian oligarch’s sone sees his mother assassinated in a strike he believes was done by US operatives. He disappears, intent on revenge, and years later stumbles into a black-site raid where he steals experimental neurological tech that can compels anyone who meets his eyes to obey his command.
Hahaha! This hack is just gonna plagiarize another anime.

Sure, some projects can hit financially. That wasn’t my claim.
Box office is a moment. Myth is longevity.
Lots of profitable films never become loved, repeated, or cross-cultural.
Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz, and The Sound of Music are some of the most rewatched films of all time.
1. Money chases great art. It can’t manufacture it.
2. Catalogs can be bought; propaganda doesn’t become enduring, cross-cultural myths.
3. No one, not even MAGA, shows up to root for the Empire.
All respect to the original design, but @nikolasdraperivey.bsky.social turned Static into a drip king overnight, yet DC keeps defaulting back to the 90s Static Shock fit.
When Black people barely make up 10% of the professionals, retailers, and consumers of US comic books, asking for 100K unit sales is like setting the bar on the moon, specifically as the overall audience is 300K...
10% of that math ain't mathing even with allyship and cohorts putting five on it.
A close second is Sunspot, but until Marvel locks in on the brand guide that Roberto DaCosta is Black and his power is to turn super Black, money is being left on the table.

Magik has long been the best New Mutant, but Chris Bachelo giving her a distinct costume and anime-soulsword turned her into IP that Disney can sell.
Depressed Cyclops is just Cyclops.
Guy only has two settings now, upset or throw hands.
Whichever streamer gets exclusive rights to this will do numbers.
Was he disillusioned or did he realize “faith without work is dead?”
