Diamonds Are Forever?

Gunwallace at 12:00AM, Feb. 20, 2025



Diamond Comic Distributors has gone bankrupt. As someone who once worked in a comic book shop, back in the 80s and 90s, it was something of a shock. I came over all nostalgic for their blue logo. I still have a number of cardboard boxes crammed with comics that have ...

Poetry Time 109: Alienation

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Feb. 16, 2025



Sound-proofed, but still aloud
Some say I make thunder, others cloud me mute
Still Alone, but in a shroud
Some will walk me by, others crowd me mad
“So when will your world arrive?” Quote one mind.
Deadborn, but still alive

Art For Art's Sake

Gunwallace at 12:00AM, Feb. 13, 2025



I was tempted to write about something easy and non-controversial this week, but then decided I would just keep being me. At least this post has something to do with comics, and current news. I'm genuinely interested in what people have to say on this topic, as it it ...

Poetry Time 108: Transmissions

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Feb. 9, 2025



Lights upon a fading sky.
Whipping the night to encircle the dead
Blocks are talking to your I.
Curve them a wave and encircle them red
Joys comes dancing you goodbye
A smile so wide it will encircle your head.

NaaN (Now, always and Never)

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 8, 2025



There is a poem by one of the most interationally famous Greek poets, Konstantinos Kavafis, called Waiting for the Barbarians. I invite you to give it a read (I've linked its translation) but here's the gist in a nutshell: It's about the Romans waiting for the Barbarians ...

Poetry Time 107: Posthuman

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Feb. 2, 2025



Event horizon. The faintest stroke of the rosey dawn.
The end of time or so it sounds.
Clawing, scratching and crying to abound.
Here it comes the future drawn.
As my past self gives its final yawn, please, no funeral mound.
Let the belly of the wolf be my final ...

Buffering

Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Feb. 1, 2025



If there is one thing my comic partner and I have realised these past few years is this. The first half of the year is manic for us. Every year we get together to inscribe our goals into stone and within two months life has bulldozed its way through them ...

Poetry Time 106: Cold to Hot Shadow

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Jan. 26, 2025



Your heart’s beating inside the hourglass
Orbiting your soul system it comes to pass
Begging for a new season to amass
Alas, white shadows still lasts–shrinking
But the earth is now drinking and the silver shifts to brass
Your heart’s still beating in the hourglass.
