Good biography! . #MichaelDouglas: #ABiography by #MacElliot is a #fascinatingread. I am not drawn to #celebritybios by nature,but this one jumped off the #libraryshelf so took it home. So far I am reading about his #wildyouth as a #60shippie conflicting with his father #KirkDouglas. Now I am onto his #actingcareer in #thestreetsofsanfransisco and subsequent journey tomake the #oscarwinning #oneflewoverthecuckoosnest. #booksrule https://www.instagram.com/p/B6_vw9wD-56/?igshid=u81fogdssidy

Great hike in great weather miles above the ocean: the “Sea to Sky” trail to “Raptor Ridge Trail,” approx 7 miles in the dramatic hills near Jenner, California. Our days in California were basically structured with an epic hike in the morning, and chill wine tastings in the afternoon. (More on that soon!) 😉 . #hikingcalifornia #trailsofcalifornia #seatoskytrail #raptorridgetrail #jennerheadlands #jennercalifornia #northerncalifornia2019 #californiavacation2019 #waltjaschek #randyrosenbaum #waltran #oceanviewsbeauty (at Jenner, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0RlzAwg5dB/?igshid=9x7nzx91827z

We called it! Congrats, @stlouisblues! . This is the climactic scene from issue #3 of “The Golden Adventures of Brett Hull” comic book series, in which Brett helps the Blues win the #stanleycup. This tale of time-travel was published in #1994 but is set in #2094, so we were early by 75 years! Art is by Don Secrease and Rick Burchett, words by me. . #bretthull #stanleycupfinals #stlouisblues #blueshockey #stlblues #comicbookseries #comicbookmoments #comicsaboutsports #goldenadventures #climacticscenes #timetravel #sportscomics #waltjaschek #stlmade https://www.instagram.com/p/Byseb2JDq3j/?igshid=127puier0vcwr

Dr. Pym Goes To Wizard World Part 3: Doc and Deadpool. . #drhankpym was surprised and relieved #drstrange still had a #gemstone not in possession of Thanos. By the #eyeofagamotto! . #Deadpool, meanwhile was completely #inchatacter. Taking the #scottlang action figure, he said, “Oh, the places I could put this.” 😆 . #doctorstrangecosplay #doctorstrangecosplayer #deadpoolcosplay #deadpoolcosplays #hankpymcosplay #hankpymcosplayer #drhankpym #wizardworldstlouis #wizardworldsaintlouis2019 #wizardworldstl #waltnow #cosplayofinstagram (at Wizard World St. Louis) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwHhmCiD1KE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x0qodpb615o9

Dr. Pym Does Wizard World Part 2: Into the #Wonderverse. . #DrHankPym bumped into #WonderWoman outside the con. He’s just glad he didn’t bump into the #swordofathena .

There were 12 variants of #detectivecomics1000. Only got 3. I’m learning something called #selfrestraint. . I’m a #Batmanfan. Been reading #DetectiveComics since I was 7.

That #Watchmen hoodie I scored at @savers_thrift has proven to be #transformational. . One, it’s #verywarm, which helps when #stliscold. . Two, it inspired me to reread the #greatgraphicnovel #sourcematerial in advance of #watchmenonhbo. Hope they do it justice, but likely I’ll say, #thebookisbetter. . Three, the arrival of this #cooldiscountgarnent into my life comes as I ponder a pivot: away #atlast from #advertisingandmarketing — had a good 35-year-run on that, and back to some my first #creativeloves: #writingcomics, #creatingcartoons, #makingvideos and #writingfeaturestories. . More on all that soon, but the lesson: #buythehoodie (at St. Louis) https://www.instagram.com/p/BurlPylDsb_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=onxnbyyodjhg

“Ned and the Nude:” A Spec Comic for The Simpsons™

Can a Simpsons™ character handle full-frontal nudity? Even in the name of art? This 6-page “Ned and the Nude” comic was written by Walt Jaschek (here’s the script) and drawn by Don Secrease and Bill Lux, as an audition for a gig at Bongo, publisher of the Simpsons comicbook. It’s a PG-13 rated tale about nudity in pop culture and America’s queasiness about that. It’s also a silly Ned Flanders solo story. Simpsons are © 20th Century Fox. Created by Matt Groening. (Props 4ever, Matt.)
