It's Late Night Mellow... ✨🌙 After gravity weighs the shoulders all day, let’s float for a while... @Eiki090513 in Kyoto greeting the end of May with warm Strat tones. 🔥 Thank you for the relax, Eiki-san. 🙏 深夜のメロウタイム…✨🌙 一日中重力に肩を預けていた後は、少しの間、ゆったりと漂ってみましょう…京都の@Eiki090513さんが、温かいストラトの音色で5月の終わりを迎えています。🔥 リラックスさせてくれてありがとう、Eikiさん。🙏

Panel of the Day. 💬 Amazing Spider-Man 22. Yes - that’s classic Betty Brant jealousy flickering again. Betty invites Peter to the art exhibition that J. Jonah Jameson is sponsoring. She’s quite insistent he comes with her... At this point in the series, Betty is starting to see more of Ned Leeds (the budding romance is developing), yet she still gets visibly annoyed whenever Liz Allan calls Peter "Petey" or gets too close. Peter, of course, is caught in the middle - trying to be loyal to Betty while also turning down Liz’s request to walk her home earlier (to avoid more drama.) Spidey’s love life really is one tangled web. The poor guy can dodge bullets and swing through skyscrapers but navigating these early-60s teenage/young adult feelings? 🤔 That’s the real super-villain. Ditko captured that awkward sincerity so well - Peter wanting to do right by everyone and usually ending up disappointing someone (usually himself... 😳) Classic Silver Era romance triangle energy. Betty’s jealousy, Ned waiting in the wings, Liz orbiting? It’s messy, human and endlessly re-readable. 🕸️❤️‍🔥 #PanelOfTheDay #SpiderMan #ComicBooks

Silver of the Day: Amazing Spider-Man #22. 🕷️ "Preeeeeesenting… The Clown and his Masters of Menace!" Cover date: March 1965. Visual Storytelling? Steve Ditko. The Circus of Crime returns! The Ringmaster (with his hypnotic hat) brings back his crew - including the agile Clown - for a new criminal scheme involving mind control and theft! Peter Parker is juggling his usual chaos: photos for Jameson, Aunt May worries and the eternal balancing act between being a hero and trying to have something resembling a normal life... Ditko’s storytelling here is pure classic - tight pacing, expressive faces and that unmistakable sense of a young man stretched thin by...destiny. (The Circus villains are campy fun but the real heartbeat is always Peter’s inner world. 🌐) #SteveDitko #PrimordialSpiderMan

Art Thursday just got witchier. 🎨🔥 Back on Sunday Night Live, @kpop_junki was energy itself - longtime podcaster, social media rockstar and host of Kickin' It With Kpop (steadfast promo' Queen of Indie Comics...) Outside of our chat this is the first time we’ve seen her art break cover… From her 3-year art challenge: Horror Icons (2023) - Nancy Downs from The Craft. 6x9 watercolour + metallic pens. 🩶 Flowing robes, glinting necklaces, glowing pentagram under the night sky - bold, moody with atmosphere. (Word is she may be cooking her own indie comic one of these days… 👀 We’ll be ready, Katie!) Original post: x.com/kpop_junki/sta… 1st Pillar Art family - your move. ♟️ Drop your Portfolios, WIPs or Finished pieces below.

Panel Of The Day. 💬🕸️ A Ditko Splash-Page and HOW? 🕷️vs🪲!! Second appearance of the armoured menace himself - and he’s throwing down 💜🥊 in one of the most beautiful primordial Ditko ballets you’ll ever see. 🩰 Spider-Man and the Beetle mid-air, webs and wings slicing through Ditko’s moody noir panels like pure choreography. That splash page? Absolute grace in motion. Steve Ditko at his 1965 peak - economical, dynamic and graceful tension. #PanelOfTheDay #PrimordialSpiderMan #Ditko

Silver of the Day. 🩶🕷️ The Amazing Spider-Man #21 (1965.) "Where Flies the Beetle…!" Human Torch guest spot adds extra chaos while Peter’s still juggling life, school, and that classic Silver Era guilt. Ditko's art SINGS pulp. Stan’s cover hype does the rest. This run just doesn’t miss. Pure early 'Marvel' magic. 🔥 #SteveDitko #StanLee #SilverEraComics #AmazingSpiderMan #SpiderMan #TheBeetle #MarvelComics1965
