Another #SDCC in the books. Thanks so much to everyone who came out, hung out, and made it another awesome one this year. Closing it out the only way I know how. Until next year!
Good lord, #SDCC starts tomorrow. In for a frenzied day of preparation, but I can’t wait to be there! Here’s my schedule:
Mark your calendars - @gavinpsmith.bsky.social and I will be signing copies of MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: GENESIS #1 at the one one and only Midtown Comics on August 5th!
Getting my SDCC schedule down, so if you want to meet up, or have me on a panel, please get in touch!
Siiick. Check out this oversized collection of Venom: Black White and Blood! Thanks @marvelcomicshqs.bsky.social!
Last day to preorder Masters of the Universe: Genesis #1 is tomorrow, 6/29! Read all about how Skeletor came to Eternia, and how he plans to seize the power of Greyskull! From @darkhorse.com
I’m doing an AMA on /Mastersoftheuniverse right now! Happy to answer questions about Genesis, Skeletor, or whatever else you want to ask about - join us! www.reddit.com/r/MastersOfT...
Today is the last day to preorder HELLO DARKNESS #23, featuring a sick new horror western by me, @stevansubic.bsky.social and @edduke.bsky.social! Let your comic shop know you want a copy!
Every time my job hosts a lunchtime work event, half of me is “I don’t appreciate your ruse, ma’am.” And the other half is “oooh! Free cookies!”
On a purely selfish note, it was gratifying to see how the writers, directors, and yes, Jared Leto characterized Skeletor. He’s a little more over the top here than how we have him, but (forgive the pun) the bones are the same. Just a bad guy living his best life.
John Blanche was, is, and shall remain an absolute legend. Gutted to hear of his passing.
You had questions. I have things that can pass for answers. Check out my latest newsletter, where I open the mailbag and go off! open.substack.com/pub/richdoue...

The @christophcondon.bsky.social section of my bookshelf keeps getting bigger, and I love it.
