My condolences to Francis and the entire Coppola family and friends.

My latest Substack newsletter is up: A sweeping Epic co-starring Steve Niles, tales of 7174, and a spinner rack tribute to Trina and Mark.

What a life and legacy Trina lived. The entire comics medium is better for having her in it as long as we did. And she was also so much more than her work. An amazing artist and human. R.I.P.

Nice night Warwick's celebrating the release of @donwinslowfilms’ final novel.

Happy birthday to the great Francis Ford Coppola 👑

Francis Coppola’s ‘Megalopolis’ Screened For First Time Today For Distributors At CityWalk IMAX deadline.com/2024/03/franci…

It was wonderful to be in that room today. So happy for Francis and what he and his team have created.

FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA'S MEGALOPOLIS screened for 300 guests in L.A. The film received a standing ovation, with a visibly moved Coppola trying to hold back tears.

A person in attendance tells me, 'It’s startling, not like any movie that’s out there'

Nice to see a couple shiny new Harlan Ellison books in stores this week. Well done, J. Michael Straczynski.

This is fantastic news, Stephen Mooney, congrats. And it's about time! I can only assume you'll be voicing the character, too, right?

At 13thDimension.com today, I offered up 13 reasons to celebrate MAD Magazine artist Mort Drucker's birthday. There are of course many more reasons than that, but gotta stay on theme...

Happy 93rd birthday to the Shat!

My latest 13th Dimension celebration of a childhood (and adulthood) favorite on their birthday - this time, Mad Magazine great Al Jaffee:

The art in the comic preview is so good. Excepting the obligatory parity between the main character and his double, everyone has such unique, expressive faces. I'll say it again: the line economy places Ignazzi art among my favorites in comics from Europe and the Americas.

In my latest Substack: an announcement about Image Comics/Syzygy's latest series, Self Help, coming in May: chrisryall.substack.com/p/tales-of-syz…
