Ha! My father worked in animation, so he probably got the tape not long after the films premiered.

My father had a VHS tape of the Daicon Opening Animations when I was a kid and they made my little brain explode.

Sure, but that's exactly the kind of thing smartass Boomers loved to subvert. Strange that they didn't embrace the opportunity.

It's bizarre that the SNL people were so furious about having to write Muppet skits. Most modern comedians would be absolutely stoked to make weird puppet stuff.

NEVER tell someone you’re at a Rocky Horror screening for the first time.

I guess I regret I have but one life to give for something or other.

From the footage I've seen it definitely is!

Midsummer Scream has a horror musical theme this year, and I strongly approve! Phantom of the Paradise and Little Shop are two of my all-time favorite films. Could this be the year I finally – FINALLY – see Rocky Horror???

There hasn’t been an Albuquerque in 75 years. All ghosts now.

Thank you, Marlon! 🙏 Been jonesing for laughter ever since Neil Gaiman went down. THANK YOU.

This is the most Grease I’ve ever seen.

be bad at your new hobby who cares

This would have been in Chicago, but I believe the LA River did reach that far at the time.

Is this something that happens in the musical Grease?

My uncle, who was a genuine 1950's greaser, said the cops used to hassle them for "pitching pennies" outside the convenience store.

I grew up in the neighborhood where the musical Grease is set. My father went to the high school where the musical Grease is set. My uncle personally knew the guy who wrote the musical Grease. Have I ever seen the musical Grease? No.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE GREASERS.

A look inside Ghostboy which reveals a glow in the dark skeleton. The word "AHHHHHH!" is behind him.

David Attenborough [whispering]:

“As the predators close in on their helpless prey, we can only watch in silent horror, for it is not man’s role to interfere in the hierarchy of nature.”

Afraid I'm going to have to yuck his yum this time.

I think you can still grab a cheap one on eBay!

There’s at least one Harry Potter clue on Jeopardy! every week and whatever 40-year-old dead-ender keeps putting them in there should go to jail.

That's so nice to hear! I remember at the time some reviewers thought the depiction of online culture felt unrealistic. Glad it resonated with you.

I had a KIMMIE66 sequel all shined up and ready to go, but DC shut down the Minx line before we could even talk about it. Bummer!

Might be tricky to reprint this one, because I was doing some highly inadvisable things RE: layering screen tones that made the production team go absolutely insane.

The cover of the cyberpunk ghost comic Kimmie66, featuring a wild-haired character in front of some blurry circuit-board-like background.

A page from Kimmie66, showing a cartoony goth character sitting in her cartoony goth room. Some futuristic vibes here.

A page from Kimmie66. Telly sits on a hillside, looking at her ghostly friend. Her friend’s back is turned, which somehow makes it spookier.

A page from Kimmie 66. The main character, Telly, screams and pulls off her VR goggles. She’s just seen something terrible. A bunch of fellow students stare at her quizzically.

Next year will be the 20th anniversary (whut) of my cyberpunk ghost story Kimmie66. I should really see about getting that one back in print somehow!

This is so cool! Looking nice and skeletonny these days, JD. (And a Kimmie66 sequel WOULD be pretty cool, wouldn’t it?)

A cartoon illustration of a vampire sleeping in the basement of a castle with sun streaming through a nearby window with a bunch of cats on top of him also all sleeping.

They were all tremendous day sleepers. #grickledoodle #vampire #cats #daysleeping #horror #cartoon #art #drawing #funny #humor
