Stuff Bully Got: A postcard from Metropolis!

I got a postcard from Metropolis, home of Superman (Also, of Clark Kent, but I'm sure that's just a coincidence), from Pal Jon Morris! And look, he drew me a lovely portrait of Super-Bull! Thank you so much, Jon!



Go pre-order Jon's new book (ad) and buy his two other books about the League of Regrettables, too! They're great fun!


Thanks again, Jon!

Comics at Housing Works: What I bought at Housing Works for myself

Naw, I'm only kidding about buying that whole big blue bag of comics — that's what I use to carry stock upstairs from the basement!

But I did buy some great comics at Housing Works Bookstore and Café, where I volunteer in the comics department, and I've been meanin' to show them to y'all!


(Yes, lots of Kirby reprints. And Mxyzptlk comics. And one where a razor turns into a robot.)

I actually hardly ever buy floppies anymore (I'm more digital now) but these are goin' on my comics spinner!


Remember, that's Housing Works at 126 Crosby St., where you can buy fine comics just like these! Well, not just like these, because these are mine. But there's some other great ones there, too.
