Have you ever wanted to start reading 2000 AD? This week's prog (#2351) is a great jumping-on issue, with all-new stories starting.

I've read it and it's heaps of fun.

You can get it at comic book shops and newsagents in the UK from today. Also availability digitally on the 2000 AD webshop: https://shop.2000ad.com/catalogue/PRG2351P/2000-ad-prog-2351

(It'll be available in comic book shops outside the UK at a later date - there's always a bit of a delay.)

#ECSegar was brilliant sardonic prose in contrast to his hero #GeorgeHerriman and the whimsical poetry of his creation #KrazyKat

I think I relate to e c segar as a creator more but I also feel krazy kat is objectively better. Though luckily that does not matter and we can read as many comics as we want.

Always felt that the most interesting Batman stories involve a version of the character that in all his darkness and complexity still maintains his compassion and humanity, and whose actions aren't solely driven by vengeance without mercy or remorse. Because no matter how synonymous the word has become with the character or how flawed his ways can sometimes be, Batman isn't out for vengeance. His prime motivation is to protect others from the pain and loss that defined his life, and empathizing, understanding, and making those who battle their own darkness feel less alone is part of it too. It's probably one of the biggest reasons why Kevin Conroy's multifaceted and human depiction of the character is considered so iconic, and why the Batman Animated Series has solidified itself as a classic.

Panel from Detective Comics #1026 - “Monsters of Men” (2020), by Peter J. Tomasi, Kenneth Rocafort, Daniel Brown, and Rob Leigh.

#BatmanDay #Batman #comics #ComicBooks #DCComics

Panel showing a conversation between Batman and Killer Croc with the following dialogue:

Batman: The people you abducted are safe and sound, Croc. You put up a hell of a fight... but a deal is a deal. I appreciate you honoring it and helping me get your crew here for treatment.

Croc: This battle... this struggle to keep any sense of normality... just when I get a taste of it, it's taken away... this life is a living death.

Batman: This doesn't excuse what you did in kidnapping those people, but I can't blame you for giving in to your base emotions -- we all do. I find my mask's getting harder to take off lately, but you have to try harder.

Croc: At least you have a mask. I can't take this off. EVER.

Batman: We've all had something taken away from us that ends up changing us. It's not giving in to the darkness that defines us, Waylon.

Croc: Thanks, Batman.

Batman: For what?

Croc: For using my real name.

In the last panel both characters are shown shaking hands.

No one ever called Otto Binder #BOTD (1911-1974) lazy.

Writer of the Adam Link, Robot series in the pulps which were a huge inspiration to #Asimov and others. Then drifted to comics with long runs at Fawcett and DC and short runs at most others. DC editor E. Nelson Bridwell assessed Binder’s total output at "almost 50,000 pages of comics".

So I am a huge comic book fan, and I had no clue that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and Daredevil share the same origin story. A few things were changed to avoid copyright problems from what I heard in a video, but the origin stories are the same from different points of view. That is really cool and interesting to me. #comics, #comicBooks.

“Double Escape” by Mœbius (Jean Giraud) from Métal Hurlant #50 (France, April 1980) which appears to be a riff on the classic Will Eisner Spirit story “The Story of Gerhard Shnobble” (September 5, 1948, excerpt).

#SilentSunday #Moebius #Mœbius #JeanGiraud #BandeDessinée #MétalHurlant #WillEisner #TheSpirit #GerhardShnobble #ComicBooks #Comics @comics @comicstodon

A person in a blue shirt and socks, white pants, yellow shoes, and red cap is imprisoned in an open air tower with high walls. Slowly the person discovers they have the power of flight and rises over the walls and continues around outside the tower. The green-faced jailer in a green/brown militaristic uniform is doing the rounds of the tower and discovers the prisoner missing.
The tower guard looks out of the window to see the prisoner flying through the air and reaching for a gun, shoots them dead. The prisoner’s body falls to the ground below as their soul floats out of it and rises. The jailer stands transfixed at the window bathed in brilliant light and cowering.
Gerhard Shnobble in a suit and hat is flying through the air and circling the ledges of a building where the crime fighter The Spirit, in a blue suit and domino mask is battling a group of criminals. One of them shoots Shnobble multiple times, killing him and sending his body hurtling towards the earth below as his hat remains suspended by the winds and his soul too rises from the body below.

AND SO... LIFELESS... 
GERHARD SHNOBBLE FLUTTERED 
EARTHWARD.

BUT DO NOT WEEP 
FOR SHNOBBLE...

RATHER SHED A TEAR 
FOR ALL MANKIND...

Suddenly from an adjoining subway car a drunken, boisterous fellow bursts through the door and lurches towards the businessman then begins to serenade him with a tune.
Holding onto the train pole the drunk concludes his song then begins to run out of steam, leaning on and sliding down the pole. He then moves directly in front of the businessman, and holds onto an overhead hand grip while peering at the businessman intently. He then sits down next to the businessman and tells him a story, alternately looking cheerful, in a rage, and weeping uncontrollably. All through the drunk’s overwrought display the businessman sat there stoic and emotionless. Finally exhausted, the drunk leaned against the businessman and passed out.

The boys look stoked. Hope things don’t get gnarly and they wipeout. 🏄‍♀️

Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge are running on a beach and are being chased by seemingly every boy in Riverdale except Jughead. Betty is in pigtails and a bikini with a red, white, blue, and black print. Veronica has a red and white hair tie and wears a red and white one piece bathing suit with side cutouts. Veronica says, “I thought you said surfers were interested only in waves and curls?” Betty replies, “I said, waves and girls!!”

My father-in-law had these stashed away behind a bookshelf. Worth anything?

Thrifty ingenuity wins again.

Frenemies/BFFs Veronica Lodge and Betty Cooper catch some rays on a beach near Riverdale. Veronica (who is rich) is laying on a green blanket wearing a bikini with a red, black, and white print and a red hat. Betty (who is not rich) walks by wearing a black and white checkered one piece swimsuit with cutouts along each side and white-framed glasses with green lenses. Two boys from behind an umbrella admire Betty’s look. Veronica with a touch of sarcasm says, “Those new cut-a-way swimsuits are very expensive!! How DID you manage it, Betty?” Betty replies, “With a pair of SCISSORS and an OLD bathing suit!”

#Introduction I'm Eclectic Lee, a middle-aged geek/nerd who's into #ComedyMusic (#WeirdAl, #TheFuMP), #ClassicVideoGames (#Atari), & #ComicBooks (#RomSpaceknight, #NewUniverse). I particularly like when those interests cross over (#PacManFever, #AtariForce). Minor interests include #DouglasAdams, #StarWars, #StarTrek, #DoctorWho & #TheatreOrgan. I hate politics, but will occasionally boost a political post, although I try to keep it positive. I've been on this Internet thing since the 1990s.

Betty Cooper, a blonde girl in a sailor hat wearing green clam diggers pants and a green and black top holds a fishing pole and is standing next to a huge fish she caught that is almost the size of her. To her right is Jughead Jones in his usual crown hat and black pants with red socks and a blue shirt. They’re watching Veronica Lodge and Archie Andrews, a red-headed boy in orange shorts walking in front of them arm-in-arm. Veronica, a brunette girl is wearing a black and white-striped one piece bathing suit with a red short-sleeved jacket over it with an enormous sun hat with black and white stripes that match her suit and red shoes that match her jacket. As Betty looks on Jughead says, “Offhand, I’d say Veronica caught the BIGGER fish!”

GCD is unsure of the inker, but Rudy Lapick is a safe bet.

On a summer beach Veronica Lodge, a brunette girl with a white hair tie in a red top and white capri pants is talking to her BFF Betty Cooper, a blonde girl in a tan one-piece bathing suit with yellow, orange, red, and black stripes on top. Betty has just returned from swimming and is drying off with a green towel. They are sitting on rocks overlooking the shore and Veronica says, “Can you imagine, Archie accused me of going to the movies with DANNY last night!!” To which Betty replies, “The nerve of him! You WENT with RICHARD!!”
