Eric Lacombe’s “The Weight of Silence” at Last Rites Gallery.

Currently on view at Last Rites Gallery in New York City, New York is the solo exhibition of new paintings by artist Eric Lacombe entitled “The Weight of Silence.”

A master of the absolutely nightmarish, Lacombe has dedicated “The Weight of Silence” to the moments right before death and the anticipation of what may come.  As Lacombe says, “imagine the very moment before death when life slips away and something new begins: this moment is truly precious, because everything is silent. I want to evoke that stillness, that loneliness, that sensation of fear, melancholy and happiness.”

“The Weight of Silence” is on display until April 15th, 2016.

Amazing Spider-Man #16.1

One page. 

Literally…one, out of context, Gerry Conway written page (nearly an entire year later) has demonstrated more though provoking introspection on Peter’s part over the Superior arc and more depth to his character than the entire run of Superior or sixteen issues of Amazing thereafter.

And it was not played as a handwaved side gag as has been the case in other issues.

One page by a guy who hasn’t written Spider-Man in like 20 years is better than almost everything from the passed…what? Year? Five years? Eight years?

Sigh

For as long as I can remember I just wanted to do what was right.

The DBZ x Linkin Park AMVs were definitely a core part of my childhood.
