checkout this crazy picture my friend @charliechu took http://t.co/c10VdpQ #
RIP carlos trillo. he was an amazing writer. #
actually, now that i think of it: risso just DID work with trillo on a beautiful painted story. #
1 of my hardest & proudest jobs ever was translating the 1st vol of BORDERLINE from carlos trillo's spanish text #
just spoke to risso to give him my condolences. he says they're all in shock over there. trillo died exactly a week after 68th birthday. #
leaving for paris on friday. SO MUCH TO DO BEFORE. #
can one of you people coming out to NYC for NYCC stay at this hotel so i can see the robot take your bag up http://t.co/6DIwPix #
"The NYPD shut down Max Fish for underage drinking and serving after-hours #
what is it we think the audience takes away from bragging about how quickly we wrote a thing? #
let's be honest these images will eventually make it into some kindof political metaphor http://t.co/hmqPBWq via @luclatulippe #
"#TCAF should be called drinkcaf" -@beckycloonan #
duplicate finder tells me i have a single issue, softcover & hardcover duplicate of every single page of VIKING. i am a digital hoarder. #
listen, seriously: you have to trust me on this. it has michael bolton in it AND it's amazing http://t.co/I9GcuNu #

"The guy died in a mansion like a sell-out punk."-@letsgetshort #
can't speak for everyone living in lower manhattan 9/11/01, but for my house: today's not the day for bin laden conspiracy sneering. #thanks #
phototracers: THIS is how you use photoref. http://t.co/6xFIpRY (the magic of chris brunner) #
that "obama dead"video is NOT "fox news". it's just the local fox affiliate for NYC. fox as in THE SIMPSONS, not fox as in glenn beck. #
dear anyone waiting for me to accept their linkedin invites: i don't really plan to ever do that. or to log into linkedin ever again. sorry. #
also: i have jailbroken my iphone 3GS for no good reason and now have no idea what to do with or about that. #
missed the news that NATO'd missed khadaffi but killed his son in an airstrike… didn't they literally do that same thing 20+ years ago? #
