Little Village let me interview the ebullient Dante Powell as the cover story for their Spring Arts Issue!
I've done comedy shows w/ DP since 2017; when we brought out Sarah Sherman (SNL) for her first show in Iowa, Dante headlined. Heβs the best.
love this show
This guy gets it.
Sue had the best moment in the Civil War comics, imho. She just came out of left field and let them go bc she knew that she could. They tried to kinda sorta do that moment with Black Widow in the movie but it doesnβt land the same at all.
I just wanna make the rounds with NazgΓ»l the Olympic dog in Hollywood for a couple of months.
score some Purina endorsements, get free prosciutto everywhere, have a dark party drug phase where we hit rock bottom.
RIP Bobby Duvall

To be fair, teachers could still write off that kind of equipment on their taxes in those days
I had the honor of co-writing the Wet Hot American Summer RPG w/ Geoffrey and his new game is even better.
Proud of GG for this one. Check this out!
taxi driver turned 50 yesterday.
this was the first film I saw in a theater after covid lockdown was lifted. got a last minute ticket from my pal mike at new beverly and it did the trick.
the stories about how this got made are nuts. I donβt put this thing on much but am glad when I do.
I interviewed Tom Arnold for @littlevillage.bsky.social π½
2/2: and 24 Hour Party People is streaming on Prime and itβs got a ton of βoh, that guyβ BBC 4 folks circa 2004. You donβt have to like rave culture or the Happy Mondays to enjoy it. itβs a wonderful piss take on the Manchester music scene of the 80βs. dorky and dry and wonderful.
1/2: hey weirdos Secret Mall Apartment is now streaming on Netflix. itβs my favorie doc of the last 5 yrs and is weirdly moving and fun.
Catherine OβHara was the best. π
I should own more of her stuff, but had to sell my SCTV box sets a couple moves ago. What a life to celebrate.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
So very very sorry for your loss. VERY moved and inspired by reading this, with a renewed appreciation of every blessing we have, have had, and will have. Thank you for sharing and celebrating this facet of our beloved storytelling art form.
Iβm honored that you like it, Mike. I had two letters published in Madman during the early Dark Horse run. Thanks for being there for all of it.
My last note about 28 Years Later and Bone Temple is that Ralph Fiennes can do anything. What an actor. Handsome and charismatic enough to anchor a movie like Quiz Show, doesn't mind doing a 10 minute cameo in things like Hurt Locker and stealing the show, and is absolutely fearless about his body.
I love love love @leekeeler.bsky.social 's work. I didn't even read this yet, I just know in my bones it will be a masterpiece.
Thank you Alex!! Miss you man.
Thank you John! π
Hey, thank you Alex! I had no idea that this was posted online.
A wonderful profile of the late, great Norm Breyfogle by @leekeeler.bsky.social - an artist who deserves more acclaim and remains underrated. But he's definitely on my Batman artistic Mount Rushmore. littlevillagemag.com/peak-iowa-no...
Thank you for reading it π The irony is that I can still use the janky chromadepth clear glasses, mas o menos
The Comics Journal let me write about losing my right eye, my farewell to 3D comics.
Wrote about my old band The Stapler, Jack Kirby, @allredmd.bsky.social & more. Been reading TCJ since I was a kid so Iβm honored to have them accept my work.
Thnks @pixellitpod.com for helping me find the title
I got to see a lot of stuff there. I remember they had the Journey arcade game, a reskin of Qbert, at one point.
that Love & Rockets no. 1 signed by the masters, dang.
I keep my Xaime sketch of Hopey in the kitchen
