My review of BEYOND THE ICON: ASIAN AMERICAN GRAPHIC NARRATIVES has been published in the latest issue of BIOGRAPHY. In my introduction, I discuss how Asian characters were portrayed in the very first issue of DETECTIVE COMICS, the comic that would eventually feature Batman.

The proof copy of Broad Sound Vol. 2 - Part One is in transit, so why not share a copy of the table of contents for the print edition. Look at all that talent in one place. It'll make your head spin. Coming next week.
MAD MAX is basically a Western with cars and motorcycle gangs, a pre-apocalyptic revenge flick with outstanding action. It’s the kind of exploitation flick from the days of VHS where you’re like, “Whoa, what is THIS?”

Rounding out the cast is Jodie Comer as Benny’s tough-talking wife Kathy, who narrates the film in a Midwestern accent that is hilariously thick and makes the actress seem 20 years older than Butler, but I think this true-to-life quirk made the film more interesting & less cliche
My new essay on Jun Ichikawa's adaptation of Haruki Murakami’s TONY TAKITANI is a personal one, inspired by the sale of my parents’ home, their possessions, and my beloved Star Wars collection. The essay is about a specific film, but it’s also about me. brightwalldarkroom.com/2023/…
