And Now For Something Completely Different
Comic Reviews for the week ending 9/29/2024
Good morning, my friend,
Does anyone still get that reference anymore? Monty Python fans? Anyone? Anyone?
Ahh, well. C’est la vie.
If you’ve been following my personal account on X (formerly Twitter), I’m writing content that doesn’t fit squarely within the comics realm.
Comics are one type of storytelling, which is an increasingly lost art, but storytelling is critical to almost all aspects of entertainment and society. We need more storytellers - in comics, in film, in prose, and in life.
Stories aren’t just the medium to talk about superheroes and aliens. It’s the way we communicate ideas, teach generations, and build our futures.
Therefore, you’re the first to hear about a project in the works, beginning with a new newsletter and postings across all platforms.
I’ll be looking at how we can all be better storytellers, from understanding what makes fans tick to the technicalities of editing stories and everything in between.
If you’re interested in knowing more, pre-register for the new newsletter with the link below. Everyone who pre-registers between now and the launch date will be the first to get the newsletter and all related content 100% free.

Stay tuned here for more details in the weeks and months ahead.
