Actual footage of me reading comics Twitter.

Wishing comics got more respect? Better creators than you already fought and won that battle 35 years ago. The best YOU can do is not cock it up by acting like a moody teenager on the internet all day long. Pull up your pants, and make better comics.

Wishing comics had wider reach? That battle was also fought and won, 15-20 years ago, with the web and the book market. Build your raft and make it strong, but don't pretend you didn't miss a boat. Also: make better comics.

Trying to posthumously deputize a beloved creator into your "argument" while also antagonizing his widow online? Kindly fuck straight off into the sea.

Damn, I hate having to be the Dad of Comics. But many (most?) of you need one, and badly. Don't make me turn this car around.
