As an addendum to yesterday’s post, I should mention that the existing Spotlight Sunday posts aren’t going anywhere. The only real change that’s happening is that there will be no new posts, and that all similar posts will appear on the yet-to-be-named site that will serve as their new home. […]
As mentioned in my final Spotlight Sunday post months ago, I’m planning to launch a new site here at OpenDoor Comics that serves as a dedicated location for those kinds of posts, and I noted that the first hurdle is coming up with a name for it. I also asked […]
“I’m not even supposed to be here today!” – Dante, Clerks (And also my inner twentysomething who didn’t figure on making it to 30, let alone 50.) As of today, I’ve been hanging around for half a century, and while many parts of those five decades have been rough going, […]
