Strip Talk #25: Black Panther film is needed, necessary now

Strip Talk #23: Animated Mario has wins, losses over the years
Cartoons, to me, fall in the same sphere as anime and comic books. If you tell a good story, I don’t care what medium you choose to tell it in. If it happens to be about something I love, chances … Continue reading

Strip Talk #22: No fat-shaming allowed of any kind
