Rape Culture in Cosplay: I’ve personally witnessed a famous Wizard World cosplay judge ask a contestant if her breasts were “real or after-market” while she was on stage.
If you pull out soundbytes and quotes of Moran, she seems to be perfectly stable and makes a lot of sense but when you hear those bits inside a larger story, you’ll find her saying the opposite of whatever she just said too.
His advice was often the same: channel it into your work (writing, art, whatever). That famous line comes up time and again, “Bleed on the page.”
This Go Fund Me was created while Christine Lawson was still fighting for her life. Her surviving family still has to pay those medical bills. Every little bit helps.
This nascent Comic Book Retailer Alliance plans to have their first meeting in May at the Diamond Retailers Summit where the founding members will iron out their mission statement. In my personal opinion, if Larry’s Comics wants to be a dues-paying member of such an organization, that’s fine but I would not want to see Doherty on the board.
Today’s guest RYAN K. LINDSAY returns to VODKA O’CLOCK to talk all about his new series HEADSPACE available through Monkeybrain Comics. A surreal trip inside the mind of a serial killer where readers get to meet interesting characters going through their own developments. ** Mild spoilers within.
I really hate when people accuse others of making excuses for not getting on with a project. Fear is very real and it’s in my way.
People are blamed for their cancer if they’re smokers; people are blamed for their diabetes if they’re fat. Surprisingly, there is an awful lot of blame surrounding how someone chooses to face their battle with mental illness.
Returning to VODKA O’CLOCK is writer/model LELA GWENN who gives updates on her Nerd Bondage Projekt and her current comic book series BORN DARK which is on Kickstarter.
With tongue firmly in cheek, I suggest anyone with a mistress pay attention to their “care and feeding.” No, we’re not pets but I bet anything you treat your pets better.
So many people helped Comic Fusion hold another successful fundraiser for SAFE in Hunterdon during October’s Domestic Violence Awareness Month initiative. My financial figures are all rounded but after seven years, our total raised is somewhere around $45,000.
The 2013 NJ SUPERHERO WEEKEND AND WONDER WOMAN DAY to benefit SAFE in Hunterdon will be hosted by Comic Fusion on October 5-6 in Flemington’s Turntable Junction shopping village. Comic Fusion will auction superhero sketches to raise money and awareness for this domestic violence charity.
If you knew me before, I don’t expect you to call me Amber or Love. I do however expect you to not give me shit, weird looks, or mock my name that could only possibly be that of a stripper or porn star. Fuck yeah, I do adult work too, fucking deal with it.
AMBER LOVE 09-OCT-2012 Stacy Korn announced on her Facebook profile that our efforts for this year’s Superhero Weekend raised somewhere around $7,000 for SAFE in Hunterdon. Superhero Weekend would not be possible without the art donated by the talented and generous people of the comics industry. They get a lot of requests for sketch donations [...]
From 2007 onward, the owners and staff at Comic Fusion in Flemington, NJ have hosted an annual SUPERHERO WEEKEND. The event is two days to raise money for the domestic violence organization in the county, SAFE in Hunterdon. This event’s primary activity is a large comic art auction which has online bidding available. In store, customers can bid on the art as well plus there are other activities like raffles, guests in the comics industry to meet, and plenty of cosplay.
I’m pleased to announce that my comic book short story is well underway. It’s TEEN DETECTIVE for the Creative Compassion all ages series.
Using any of these banners and links will click you through to the CosplayDeviants.com website which is full of gorgeous geeks, male and female! You’ll enjoy every glorious second of it.
This weekend I am so happy to be bringing my very first printed comic to a show. HOLYOAK is a short five-page story with additional material that will be available at the Comic Geek Speak Supershow in Reading, PA (Apr-30 – May 1).
28-MARCH-2011 I’m thrilled to announce that my story arc for SUBCULTURE begins today! Stick around for eight parts of geekery about gaming conventions, comic shops and Free Comic Book Day.

I really have been devoting way too much time to checking every single profile of a friend request that comes in through Facebook. It bothers me that people can’t sometimes even upload a profile picture but I’m supposed to be “friends” when I share everything. There are also tons that have only a few friends [...]
I just received notification from PayPal that they consider my site in violation of their Terms of Service. They have closed down my account and will not allow me to access it nor give me the money in it. Their notice even says that I cannot petition them to argue my case. This is why [...]
