Reading that issue of The Hulk where @Gargron tries to capture him and harness his gamma ray strength to power the supercomputers of Mastodon:
@maj bin auch schon ganz nervös - bis zum jahresende haben wir noch 😬
@matthewbogart Hey, I just found your comment, for some reason my instance or client didn't let me see this.
Still, a heart-felt thank you, four months in the making!
The chapter turned out quite well, and kept my spirits up.
Now that it's done, though, it's back to that earlier, tougher chapter, but by now I might be up to it! 😅

@Eidon The pleasure is mine!
And Robe of Feathers is amazing...
@Eidon Well put, thank you very much!
This reminds me of #Tezuka‘s Star System, in which he used the same range of archetypal characters in different time periods or places.
In Phoenix (火の鳥), e.g., the characters transcend their individuality and (re-)appear millennia later, expressing a similar function or attitude
.
This does bear semblance to Bach‘s mathematical approach, as Tezuka designs a very structured architecture of life itself.
Thank you for making that clear to me!

This is from Tezuka Osamu's アイエル (also known as "I.L").
A wondrous masterwork.
Highly recommended!
Here's a little composition I wrote and called Jōmon
@Eidon As someone who considers #comics and #manga as much closer to music than its supposed sibling #animation, I find your Bach/Chopin comparison very intriguing.
If you feel like it and find the time, I would be happy if you could elaborate.
@cypnk All you people making jokes about Tantalos and I never seem to grasp what's so funny about him.
Glad to see that the Goethe Institute India included #Moresukine, my ancient webcomic from #Tokyo, in their collection of so-called Graphic Travelogues.
The website’s a fun assembly of (mostly German-speaking) artists and their autobiographical travel #comics from all over the world.
An offer to my #privacy-concerned #Berlin bubble:
If you’re a bit freaked out about #Apple’s content scanning plans and feel like it would be interesting to test the waters with alternative OSes, I could help you set up Linux-based #SailfishOS.
Admittedly, I’m not very techy and can’t guarantee that we’ll get there, but I have flashed a few devices and all ended up running the Finnish OS without problems.
DM me if you’re interested.
In the mid-nineties I went to a #NeilGaiman signing at my local comics store.
I brought my first #Sandman paperback from home because I couldn't afford to buy anything from that signing, and stood in line with my best friend and fellow #comics nerd.
And I remember being awfully proud that Neil, after taking a quick look at us, advised my friend to “Dream a little,” whereas he signed my comic with an encouraging “Dream On”.
@justanotheranarchist Oh wow, I'm just back from traveling and had no idea!
Thanks, this made my day 🎉

The latest version of the thoughtful, capable, and ethical replacement for Windows and macOS is here. elementary OS 6 empowers you to be in control and express yourself, continues to innovate with new features, and is both easier to get and more inclusive. https://blog.elementary.io/elementary-os-6-odin-released/
#Gaming 2021 – just helped a kid set up their brandnew #PS5, and boy, what a #privacy nightmare!
If you don't uncheck a box unmentioned during setup and hidden deep down in layers of preferences, the PS5 is always listening and remotely analyzing everything that is said to “improve its services”.
And to ensure this, yellow LEDs in your controller alarm you when the built-in microphone is _muted_, which was very counter-intuitive for the kid.
Yikes! Peak #SurveillanceCapitalism
