In Memoriam: 2020

By and | Dec 31, 2020 | Columns

2020 has been a very difficult year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and consequently, it felt like the passing of many of the comics creators, actors and artists who died this year did not fully receive the attention they deserved.

By | Dec 31, 2020 | Columns

I didn’t do as much comics reading as I certainly would have liked this year. Like so many of us, life got in the way, whether it was my day job or other aspects of my personal life. But when I do look at that reading list, small as it may be, there’s one thing […]

My Comics Year: On Burnout and Getting Through

By | Dec 28, 2020 | Columns

“It’s been a tough year” is a major understatement. First and foremost, I’m happy to be here – at Multiversity, in comics at large, cosmically. There’s not much else to say about the state of the world except things were and continue to be hard in many ways, and I’m extremely lucky nonetheless. My 2020 […]

By | Dec 28, 2020 | Columns

In a lot of ways, the holidays are about tradition. Everyone’s got ’em.
