It look like Flat Donkey is officially official. My supportive wife and chief comics enabler, Michele, just surprised me with this mug. ❤️❤️❤️

‘Charity & Sylvia’ is one of those books that lingers with you after you’ve finished it, as if the characters are people you know and think about. @dandq.bsky.social #comics
Take some quality time getting to know Charity and Sylvia
Tillie Walden’s ‘Charity & Sylvia’ immerses us in the lives of a same-sex couple from the early 1800s.

I remember becoming nauseated at the Mütter Museum in Philadelphia, realizing that the displays I was looking at were parts or real people. I recalled that visit while reading this book. However, I was far from nauseated while reading. Quite the opposite—I was glued. @dandq.bsky.social #comics
Arizona O’Neill lays herself bare in the macabre—but not horrific—‘Opioids & Organs’
Her personal account of trauma and coping aims to enlighten, not frighten.

What my copy of “Charity & Sylvia” looks like right now. I’ve finished reading. Let my thoughts bubble. Review coming your way. Thank you Tillie Walden and @dandq.bsky.social 🤔

I’m not proud of my first reaction to “Proxy Mom: My Experience with Postpartum Depression”, which is why I posted my honest review. It’s an important book by @sophieadriansen.bsky.social and Matthou.

How I read ‘Proxy Mom’ and flubbed it
‘Proxy Mom: My Experience with Postpartum Depression’ is a graphic novel on an important mission, which I was slow to grasp.

This beautiful book was a library find. It jumped out at me from the shelf, and I'm so glad it did. Thanks Taiyo Matsumoto and @viz.com. #comics, #manga, #seinen
'Tokyo These Days: Vol. 1' is a different kind of love story
Taiyo Matsumoto gives us an insider’s manga about manga and a deeply human look at the creators who live for it.

It was a pleasure spending time in Thomas Ott's haunting and delightful forest, published by @fantagraphics.bsky.social #comics
Treading the quiet horrorscape of 'The Forest'
Thomas Ott’s wordless book is (almost) as rich narratively as it is visually.
