Michelle Obama having the class & strength of character to give Melania Trump the traditional FLOTUS White House intro, despite horrible things Melania said abt the Obama family, while Melania fails to do that for Dr. Biden is...exactly what one expects at this point. Grotesque.

It cannot be understated how important these two senate runoff races are. It's the difference between important legislation getting through or being stonewalled and compromised at every juncture. Donate if you can, and let's turn out the vote in Georgia AGAIN. 💙💙💙
It's official.

First of all. This made me cry. Just this. Second, I feel like modern actors in heavy special effects movies don’t get enough credit for making this shit work even though when they actually did it, it looks absurd. Takes a great imagination and a lot of trust to do that. 💙
As a reward for helping me get to 40k followers in 2020, here's a sneak peek of a

Please don't try to raise creators up by throwing other creators under the bus.
Praise is lovely to receive but it's hard to accept & engage with if it comes wrapped in criticism/rudeness for other creators who are usually our respected colleagues & often our good friends. 😕

Hi
#VisibleWomen
! I'm Kelly Thompson, Eisner-Winning writer of comics like Black Widow, Cap Marvel, Deadpool, Jessica Jones, Hawkeye, Rogue & Gambit, Jeff The Landshark, & most recently a new creator-owned book called Black Cloak which you can find here:
The sooner you guys start correctly calling this an attempted coup the better.
We don’t have 3 1/2 years this time for you guys to call a spade a spade.
I think this is just me showing my age but when I see two characters in love seeing one another for the first time after a long time apart I want them to hug, not kiss. Kissing yes. But first I want that hug. There’s something so soul restoring about a hug from someone you love.
Another thing I should add is that yes, I'm receiving a lot of shit from people. No, it's not cool & it sucks that creators just expect it to be this way now.
HOWEVER. I also received an INSANE amount of love and positivity and excitement this week (and still am). 💙💙💙💙💙
The amount of good
@GailSimone
has done for comics can hardly be fathomed, let alone questioned.
She is a trailblazing legend and without her so many of us aren’t here at all.
Just to be super clear.
You DO NOT NEED TO HAVE READ ANYTHING before you read issue 1 of Absolute Wonder Woman.
BUT. If you already love Wonder Woman, these are some of the greatest modern stories abt her mythology/the Amazons & they were very much an inspiration for our book.
Kelly Thompson recommends reading Wonder Woman Historia before Absolute Wonder Woman!
"Lot of people have speculated this online and I will confirm this.....at least parts of the tattoo are the Hecate image on her shoulder that's sort of directly taken from Wonder Woman
So.

Was doing a podcast the other day and we talked "Pet Avengers" and I finally decided on my team. I feel really good about it: Lucky/Pizza Dog, Jeff The Baby Landshark, Jonathan The Actual Wolverine, Old Lace, and as a wild card(s)...Dr. Strange's mean snakes (I love them).

Hey Everyone!
I really appreciate the support -- it's nice to know you guys have my back, truly. But please don't attack/ swarm people -- even if they're being not great & even if it's well-intentioned/on my behalf.
Keep it cool. We're all just out here trying to love comics. 💙

I am extremely lucky to have incredible readers/fans/supporters. I'm grateful for you guys every damn day.
But there ALSO sure as hell be a bunch of motherfuckers out here constantly talking shit & having NO IDEA what they're talking about.
I’m not saying number of twitter followers are some barometer of success in life but it IS pretty funny to me when someone with ONE FOLLOWER tries to take a swing at how unsuccessful my comics are.
Wow. Wonder Woman dodged a motherfucking bullet.
There's probably a decent joke in here about it not being surprising because she's pretty good at dodging bullets, but I'm too tired to figure it out.
This is from last December, but for those of you that maybe missed it and are hungry for more
