My Phoo conversation with Jake Zawlacki for the Comics Journal, replete with 71 occurrences of the word “fuck,” it’s epic.

“I’m walking backwards for this strip” Stan Mack on Real Life Funnies and the craft of listening, interviewed by Matthew Thurber: tcj.com/im-walking-bac…

@DominoComics I’m still waiting for that Toonerville Trolley collection tho

Once this is out, they don't need to reprint any more comic strips, would all be a let down after this one.

Great interview with the legendary Stan Mack by Matthew Thurber tcj.com/im-walking-bac…

My @ComicsJournal exit interview is now live! TCJ continues to be the premiere institution of comics criticism, and its been personally influential since I discovered it ages ago. You know this is huge for me.

Very glad that this Carter Scholz piece, the best essay ever about Barry Malzberg, is now available online: tcj.com/barry-malzberg…

@CollinRugg Hi, I'm an editor at PennLive.com in Harrisburg, Pa., and I was wondering if you could possibly share where you found that video?

REPORT: Luigi Mangione, who was named a person of interest in the execution of CEO Brian Thompson, was valedictorian of the Gilman School in 2016. I have found footage of his valedictorian speech at the 119th Gilman School Founder's Day Ceremony. Mangione is one of six children and said he intended to study AI at the University of Pennsylvania when he graduated. The Gilman School is a $40,000-a-year all-boys school in Baltimore. Mangione had shared a quote online from "Unabomber" Ted Kaczynski before he was caught. "Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy then gives them the drugs to take away their unhappiness," a Kaczynski quote liked by Mangione read.

I wish we could become better strangers- let’s start by putting Clark Burscough’s links between us: tcj.com/if-we-make-it-…
