Gamer Girl & Vixen in ‘Dual Wielding’
It’s Friday, which means I’ve got another Gamer Girl & Vixen mini-comic to share! These were all super fun to make, and we’ll have one more to show off next Friday. This one is ‘Dual Wielding’ with art by Jesse Lundberg. And it features the introduction of Super Guard!

Meanwhile, the Gamer Girl & Vixen Kickstarter is doing gangbusters! We’re already over 80% funded in the first week, and we’re less than $1,000 from hitting our goal. This is magnitudes better than we did in any previous campaign! So thank you all very much for your support, and if you haven’t ordered a copy of the book yet, head on over and sign up! I’m for sure making comics, everybody!

I’m Not Sure What Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is Bringing to the Table
We got a new trailer yesterday for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, and I just…I don’t know what this movie is going to offer us. Obviously we’re going to get more of Godzilla and King Kong, and I’ve enjoyed the Monsterverse movies so far. But what is this new film really bringing to the table?
The trailer spends all this time teasing something dangerous and deadly coming…and then reveals that to be a rather lanky orangutan? There are hints of another monsters, and I’ve seen some of the leaked images, but that monster doesn’t look all that amazing. And neither monster is a classic Toho monster of old reimagined into this new ‘verse. So what exactly does this movie bring to the table?
I guess I’ll find out when I see it in theaters on March 29!

I am Totally Down with the Vibe of The Fantastic Four!
Out of nowhere, Marvel Studios used Valentine’s Day to unveil not only the cast of the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, but also the whole vibe. It’s a retro, ’60s throwback feeling. I wasn’t on board with that idea in general, but after seeing the artwork and logo, I am fully in favor of everything this movie is now giving off.
I love the cast as well. The only person we had fully confirmed at this point was Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, and I’m fine with that man in any acting role he wants or gets. I’m sure he’ll be great! The others are Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm! I knew of all three being at the top of the rumors list, so they’re not a surprise. I love every one of those choices!
I just finished watching season 2 of The Bear last week, and Moss-Bachrach was amazing! If I had watched that season when it came out last year, it would have made my end-of-year list as favorite show of 2023. And then everybody loved Quinn in Stranger Things, so they’re both pretty inspired casting. I’m not as familiar with Kirby’s work, but I’ve obviously seen her in some things like Mission Impossible. So high hopes all around for this cast!
The movie is set to come to theaters on July 25, 2025, so next year. Good times. No idea on the plot yet or the villains. I’d be cool with anybody. I love everything about this first look, down to even the retro jumpsuit look of the costumes Reed and Sue are wearing.

My 6 All-Time Favorite Relationships in Superhero Comics
It’s Valentine’s Day and love is in the air! Or some such stuff. It’s not often my Lists of Six actually land on a holiday, so I figured I might as well do something special to mark the occasion! I love a good romance subplot in my superhero comics as much as I enjoy the superheroics. Heck, I’m even writing my own romance comic in Gamer Girl & Vixen — now on Kickstarter!
Forgive me for the plug, but Valentine’s Day is the perfect place to promote the Gamer Girl & Vixen Kickstarter currently raising money! It’s a story of love, lesbians and larceny, so come on down! And GG&V are just one of my favorite relationships in comics. From classic love stories to niche romances that maybe only I enjoyed, I’ve got this list of my all-time favorite comic book ‘ships.
Join me after the jump for a comic book love connection! And feel free to share your own ‘ships in the comments below!
