There are some Bigfoot problems that hit harder than others — and for certain legendary figures, male pattern baldness anxiety isn’t just about looks… it’s about legacy. Today’s comic imagines what happens when one very famous cryptid starts wondering if his myth might not survive a receding hairline.
What I’m Watching: Invincible, JJK, and the Great Animation Trade-Off
I’ve been watching Invincible with my sons, and I’ve got… thoughts.
First off: the story? Very, very good. Genuinely compelling stuff — even though the violence and gore is way past my personal comfort range. I'm not super comfortable with one character shooting another. The stuff that happens on a median-level episode of Invincible is a real challenge for me.
As someone who does NSFW comics, I'm constantly amazed at how perfectly acceptable Invincible is... yet an animated series based on Phil Foglio's XXXenophile would have people losing their ever-loving minds.

Further, it's a little disappointing to go from watching Jujutsu Kaisen (which we're also following at the moment) to watching Invincible.
JJK features jaw-dropping visuals and animation that constantly raises the bar episode after episode. It's phenomenal.

On the other side of the spectrum, Invincible clearly put all of its budget into getting celebrity voice talent. Some of them are very good.
I just wish a few of those Amazon dollars had been spent on the animation. Some of the scenes are pretty clearly PNGs that get enlarged to show an object moving through space, and it's a goddamned embarrassment.
But the story itself is very, very good.
2007 Convention Schedule
Wizard Convention has just announced its convention schedule for the next two years. Looking at the calendar, there’s some really good news ahead — especially for everyone who has been trying to get me to come back to Chicago. Wizard finally put a little space between its Chicago convention and Comic Con International!

Here’s a look at Wizard’s schedule:
- Wizard World Los Angeles: March 16-18
- Wizard World Philadelphia: June 15-17
- Wizard World Chicago: August 9-12
- Wizard World Texas: Nov 2-4
- Comic Con International is scheduled for July 26-29.
- Emerald City Comic Con is scheduled for March 31st-April 1st.
- New York Comic Con is February 23-25.
- Baltimore Comic Con is in September.
So this is a good time to ask: Which cons would you like to see me put on my “must attend” list for 2007?
I’m committed to New York Comic Con, Wizard World Philly and Baltimore Comic Con. I’m strongly considering Emerald City Comic Con and Comic Con International. Wizard World Chicago is now officially under consideration. Are there others I should be considering?
