IIRC, he put a pronunciation guide in his USENET signature.

In the replies to the tweet, DeMatteis says he prefers the pronunciation you were using.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

Weird, that's how I always read it but I always assumed the "c" was supposed to do something and I was screwing it up.

I KNOW I've heard him referred to on enough podcasts as DAY-muh-TAY-us. But when I was a kid reading JLI who didn't know any better, I called him De-MATTY-us.

There's also Chew, which is about eating first and foremost, but cooking is very important to the plot as well.

Hope I'm asking in the right place. I've been gone from comics for a few years. Any good podcasts, preferably Big Two-centric and fun? I seem to only find podcasts that are either singularly focused on that week's pullbox or mostly interviews, when I'd really like something that delves a bit more into publishing history and specific characters.

I've listened to a few eps of Journey Into Misery, which would be kinda what I'm looking for if they had better recording equipment and the main host didn't mumble so much. Hard to hear on my noisy commute to work.

Jay and Miles X-Plain The X-Men is what you seek. Also Miles (of Jay & Miles) did a miniseries called The Lightning and The Storm that's dedicated to Simonson's Thor run. The Amazing Spider-Talk might also be up your alley.

Are the old Jay & Miles episodes under that name or the old one? I've been reading some Claremont X books and wanna pick the podcast up again.

What is "Reggie and Me?"

Argue
Sep 29, 2005

I represent the Philippines
A Reggie Mantle centric 5 issue mini that Tom DeFalco wrote for Archie a year or two ago. It wasn't a must read or anything; it was just an inoffensive side story to Waid's run.

Edit: As long as we're on the topic:

The main Archie title will be rebranding to "Archie and Sabrina", so I guess that means that Nick Spencer's run where he made them a couple is gonna last a while.

And speaking of minis, they announced a new one that I am totally looking forward to, for obvious reasons if you know anything about my posting history in BSS: Jughead's Time Police, to be brought to us by Sina Grace and Derek Charm.

Well it did originally start off as a more typical review back when Superior Spider-Man was a thing, but in I think mid-2017 they relaunched and started looking at ASM from the beginning. They still review contemporary stories, but you could skip those (they're on a delay unless you're a patron, anyway).

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
It's a good thing that particular joke hasn't been around so long that Disney made fun of themselves about it twenty-two goddamn years ago oh wait.

This is the same weird thing that leads to the Goofy-Pluto “problem.” It’s not actually a problem because Goofy’s not actually a dog. Donald isn’t a duck. Mickey isn’t a mouse. They are humans who are caricatured as dogs, ducks, mice. Carl Barks and Don Rosa would 100% back me up on this.

edit: Pluto is a dog
