Writer (film/TV/comics), pop-culture obsessive, semi-cool nerd, entertainment industry professional, Nice Jewish Boy. HALLOWEEN TEAM comic book series will return soon!
After 20 years, my run with NBCUniversal has come to an end. It's where I've spent my entire professional career to date, and I'm so proud of what I've accomplished there alongside many talented colleagues. Transitions like this one can be tough. But looking forward to figuring out my next chapter.
August 1st too soon to start spooky season? Phantom of the Opera at the Pantages!
Some very exciting and productive HALLOWEEN TEAM conversations today ... Soon, what was once thought to be dead ... will rise again.
I'm a longtime fan of Mikel Janín's comic book artwork, but the art he is doing right now for Detective Comics is IMO his best yet. Absolutely amazing stuff. And the writing on this run from Tom Taylor is also best-in-class. I hope this team is on the book for a long, long time.
Posted on FB/Reddit groups but thought I would drop this here as well: looking for comic book artist to help finish my Halloween Team sequel, Halloween Team: Shadows. Looking for pencils, inks, colors - and ideally letters too. Similar to style below. Limited budget but would be a paid per-page gig.
Some good recent feedback from @networkisa.bsky.social around my sci-fi pilot script THE PROGRAM. I haven't done much in the way of screenwriting contests lately, but man, I'd love to keep trying to make something happen with this script.
Helped to get another new batch of new-to-digital films released today. Including: - The Questor Tapes - A Pig's Tale - The Cat and The Canary - Strange Confession - Cookie's Fortune - The Naked Man - Caught in the Draft - Go West, Young Man - The Jerk Too - The Shepherd of the Hills - Unconquered
Love the show, but had very similar thoughts watching the premiere. I’ve consumed A LOT of other media since the S2 finale!
Literally happening to me today as I visit my gf’s hometown (Chico, CA) for the first time! I know where all the Blockbusters were now …
A truly magical night seeing Ringo Starr and his All-Star band at the Greek theater! Got to check multiple classics from The Beatles, Toto, Men At Work, and more off my live music bucket list. Was surreal seeing Ringo live sounding as great as ever in his 80’s. Got me a bit emotional. Awesome show!
PSA: you can now get AMAZING STORIES: THE COMPLETE SERIES for the first time on digital. From the mind of Steven Spielberg, this legendary sci-fi anthology features episodes directed by Spielberg, Scorsese, Hooper, Zemeckis, Joe Dante, Brad Bird, and more. Available on Apple, Fandango, etc.
How many Millennials had this pop into their head at least once while watching Backrooms ...?
Anybody want to hire me as a box office pundit? (called Backrooms' success months ago)
Helped to launch another big batch of new-to-digital movies today. But one I wanted to call out is THE MAN WHO LAUGHS (1928). This creepy, nearly 100-year old classic is legendary for having served as an inspiration for Batman's greatest villain, The Joker. athome.fandango.com/content/brow...
PSA: The Bionic Woman and The Six Million Dollar Man digital Complete Series sets available now for the first time on Apple, Fandango At Home, etc. "Better... stronger... faster."
A fun day at the Renn Faire in Irwindale. First time seeing the Merry Wives of Windsor and Tenacious D&D shows there - both were great! And the fair was packed today!
Finally got my hands on physical copies of IT’S A HORROR SHOW: THE FOUND FOOTAGE ANTHOLOGY. It's a super cool comic book horror anthology, that includes a twisted tale of vampire romance written by me! With A+ art by @lorryjamison.bsky.social. Get it here: www.apollocitycomics.com/product/its-...
Long time Monty Python fan, first time ever seeing SPAMALOT! Really enjoyed the show.
Got to see THE LAST FIVE YEARS 25th Anniversary Show tonight at the Hollywood Bowl - starring Rachel Zegler and Ben Platt. Both were great, but Zegler delivered an absolutely superstar performance that tore the house down. A fun show - felt like a special experience to be there live for this.
A few fun pics from #WonderCon Me with Superman/Wonder Woman, Skeletor(s), and Vecna.
Did one more panel at WonderCon - Tom King and Tini Howard talking writing comics! Mouseman knows!
A fun day at Wondercon. Saw some old friends, met some new people, went to a panel with the great Scott Snyder, met one of my favorite ever writers in Tom King, got some cool comics and merch, and capped things off with a hearty dinner at Downtown Disney. Oh, and saw some incredible cosplay!
I think Terry Moore is one of the most unique and talented comic book artists ever (certainly one of the best at conveying character and personality and emotion) - so was happy to support his new “how to draw” book on Kickstarter … and was very excited to get my copy in the mail.
Checked out the new DC Comics x AEW comic book that came out this week. Being a huge fan of both, there's some fun stuff in here. This is my favorite bit:
I've been a bit radio silent on my comic book, HALLOWEEN TEAM, as of late. Unfortunately, the series (and its in-progress sequel series Halloween Team: Shadows) is no longer being published by Comicker Press. Where do we go from here? TBD. But one way or another ... Halloween Team will return.
Hey #PortfolioDay Writer here. In 2025, I released the first issue of Halloween Team: Shadows (the sequel series to Halloween Team), with more on the way. I also had a short story in It's A Horror Show: The Found Footage Anthology. Hoping this is just the beginning of my comics-writing journey!
