There are probably going to be a lot more temp bans until people calm down/get used to how things are now.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Writer/Editor/Talent Scout. I'm giving away a book from GrayHaven plus doing portfolio reviews for new artists. My wife is an artist and she's doing free sketches tomorrow for kids 13 & under (and selling commissions as well).

Ah, that's really cool. I'm a bit of a writer myself, but still really wet behind the ears.

How long have you been doing this?

We can't question Osborn and his Avengers.

I've been doing the Promotions stuff with Shadowline for seven years now. Have been with GrayHaven a little more than two years (had my first story published three years ago). Started out as a writer, moved up to editor. Then also added Assistant Art Director which turned into Talent Acquisition Coordinator. Started doing production and lettering last year. I love doing what I do -- as we've been able to give about 250 people their first published work in the industry.

Listening to some people, that'll be a while.

Sub-Zero MKA, what does MKA stand for?

Mortal Kombat Annihilation. You know, the best Mortal Kombat.

What this guy said. Alternatively, Mortal Kombat is Awesome (I made it up when I was sixteen).

I'd hazard a guess they'd have to referee a little more hard ass at least through the first week.

Just had a sudden realization -- I know Jonah is a big fan of the Clippers. I wonder if the Sterling situation had any influence on this.

That's awesome. I'd love to get in on the comics industry, but lack the time/talent. Does your wife also work for GrayHaven or is she freelance?

I actually thought yesterday how similar his actions were to how hard Silver came down on Sterling. In terms of severity, I mean.

She's done a 3-page story in one of the issues but that's all. Her work is more on the marketing/design side but she does different types of art (watercolor, pen & ink, acrylics, copic markers) as well. She's also a tremendous writer (far more talented than me) but writes short stories & novels as opposed to comics. She has a few ebook on sale over at Amazon.

Everyone is in love with BPDG.

We all love the Princess.

And people don't like Doctor Who?

These must be those parallel universes I've been hearing so much about.

Not liking Doctor Who! That is not right.

laurence llewelyn bowen?

Always count on him for something interesting.

Any Arrow fans here?
Any gamers here?
Any pop culture fans?
Any politic interested people here?
Anyone read good comics lately?

I want to discuss those. Pretty please?

I am enjoying the new She Hulk comic.

You mean Laharl, yes? I liked that game almost as much as I like buttsex.

Squirrely girl, Hi!

Your optimism is sweet, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Agreed.

MunchKING got banned? So no protesting via spamming then? If nothing else, it made for strangely compelling viewing.

No, it just wasted space.

We already hit the LCBS for our pulls this week. They limit the # of free books each person gets, but they slipped one they knew we wanted in w/our pulls. But we're stopping in anyway; there's free food, and the owner doesn't usually work weekends, but she'll be there. And it's cool to watch people bring in their kids; always good to see the market expand, eh?

The owner is really nice and she has a cute puppy!

Mortal Kombat Annihilation. You know, the best Mortal Kombat.

I thought so.

[Marc Lombardi]

Gotta turn in as I have a long day tomorrow. It was nice getting to know the lot of you. I hope to be able to hang around here as often as possible...so you're all stuck with me now. G'night everyone.
