Thank God you're finally off Daredevil. I mean, I can't handle it anymore. Like Matt himself, I can't be this happy every month. It's bad for me. Good riddance. And take that Marco with you! I must perform some sort of comics penance now for enjoying Daredevil suffer as much as he does. Maybe I'll just hit myself with one of those door-stopper omnibuses.
Truly it is the end of an era. It’s going to be so strange seeing someone else plotting out the adventures of Daredevil and them not be you.
Tbh for me, ur work has been what u might call, MY run on DD, the run that I will always think back on and think of as what the character should always aspire to be, in character and in quality. And I don’t say this lightly. I’m the sorta guy who, unless something catches his eye, he’s not likely to give it much focus. Such was my attitude for DD for years...
Till you and Marco that is.
Now I’m going to have to work on readjusting my expectations for the next team, and hope I feel the same intrigue and satisfaction from their work, as I have this run.
In regards to you and mark...who has the trophy now? I get it back or did he swipe it again?
Finally, any idea when you will be able to discuss more info about the upcoming Gotham War event, without the danger of being taken out by the editorial team’s snipers?
I’m unsure what else to say other than that I enjoyed your daredevil run. But if I weren’t a fan of yours, I wouldn’t be here, so... I hope one day I get to write Daredevil and retcon his entire life as a superhero into an LSD hallucination of a child who just got a bunch of acid poorer into his eyes.
Matt Fraction had the travelling Harvey at ECCC 2017, and offered fans the chance to touch it in exchange for a donation to The Hero Initiative. A win-win for fans and The Hero Initiative, but maybe not for you - who knows what kind of pre-Covid cooties ended up on your award

Hi Chip,
Poor Grimace. He doesn’t look nefarious, more like a giant, bipedal Ube gumdrop.
Just saying: That Daredevil 14 cover is perfect for a Remarque.
I won’t say my final thank you for Daredevil just yet. I will enjoy your last two issues with Marco & Matt. Now I understand why I call your DD my favorite soap opera.
I wish you were a part of the goddamn treat Marco is moving onto…but I get it.
May you have a great weekend, Chip.
Thinking good things for you, Marco & Rafael at the Eisners in 3 weeks.

Always great seeing what you post on here Chip.
dear chip,
thank you for this as always!
"For anyone NOT sick of me" is very funny. i continue to be healthy of you.
though, to be inclusive, what else do you have to share for people who ARE sick of you?
"In (ugh) NON-Chip news"
oh, thank you! asked and answered.
thanks again for all things!
love,
myq
PS in the states, we spell "humour" without that "u." it's "HMOUR." just in case anyone comes at yo.

Are there any non-villain mascots for McDonalds?! You can never trust a clown and the hamburglar flaunts his crimes.
That promotional art you did has been my phone lock screen since you released it, so I’ve definitely gotta get that variant cover.
I know this has nothing to do with what I just read but I hope you and all your people are not too affected by the wildfires up there
i think there should be a substack tier that makes it legally okay for me to refer to you as my husband

You mentioned Grimace but NOT The Hamburgler! I guess he’s not having a moment, but I must say I’m disappointed, Chip.
