Damn chip. Banned...over that? Clearly they haven’t done a deep dive into the profiles of “certain” accounts.

Also, damn, this week’s Batman was...wow. And yes, the good old detective dialogue was very much a highlight of this issue. Fact, lots have been saying that’s partially what they loved most about it. Me, I’m a simpler fellow. I see Batman and joker together, thrown in a twisted alternate persona that has alienated Bruce from his family in his attempts to usurp his control over the body. I am curious as to know how Joker is even aware of the other Batman down in Bruce’s head? To me knowledge, those two have never met until now.

Also, was it ur idea or Jorge’s for the callback shot to the killing joke with Joker’s throne there? Just curious.

Just how long is mindbomb planned for? This going to be roughly the same length as Failsafe and Bat-Man of Gotham, or a shorter one?

Keep it up chip! Also I can’t wait for more news to drop about Avengers Twilight!

I was wondering where they got all those amazing and definitely realistic sex tips from!

I don't know, AM I addicted to questions? Can I stop at any time? (Asking for a friend)

I wanted to thank you and Matt for making Sex Criminals. I can't imagine the crazy things people said and or wrote to y'all. thankfully the comic shop I was shopping at during that time was owned by a family who was around my age and they couldn't keep sex criminals on the shelves because they would sell out quickly, thankfully I had it on my pull. on a side note my older brother has always believed Kurt Russell is related to us because in Used Cars, The Thing and I think Escape From New York our last name is used prominently in some of his lines and the name of his nemesis car dealers in Used Cars. which reminds me if Matt has any powers have him demand that I get a walk on on Monarch when the strike ends then perhaps I can ask Kurt myself.

And Whoopee! Yay, Chip. Because of this Sex criminals variant I now remember the Newlywed Game’s use of Whoopee and will never think of Whoopee pies the same way again. I’ll resume rereading Daredevil now and let you get back to your video games and Bat things.

…Butt yes…(I know. I know.)

I remember when Apple banned Sex Criminals, so annoying. That Jobs cover is making me 😂 right now. Whoopee Criminals needs to be a thing, Chip. (I have such an urge to do fan art of this…)

Wait, Matt’s doing the Kurt Russell Godzilla thingy on Apple?!? This is a small reason why I am glad I subscribe to your ‘stack Chip, I am so out of the (Infinite) Loop.

Happy anniversary to you Sex(y) Not-Quite Criminals.

Have an awesome week writing Bats averages and Public Domain etc. Chip.

Dude, sex criminals is 10? That's crazy, in 10 years it'll be 20 and Street Saviours will still be in development hell. Feel old yet!

I've been waiting for your Batman/Joker showdown since I read Howard The Duck. Gotham War was probably the most invested I've been in a Batman story in over half a decade and I can't wait to see what comes next. My girlfriend is exasperated from hearing me speculate.

That magazine cover is too accurate.

Really really loved this recent issue of Batman. I really like (what I assume is) your ongoing theme of the importance of people and connection to Bruce being what makes him a hero. After being on his own for a while, he becomes more monstrous and scary to the people he means to save. This almost feels like an inverse of New Frontier's scene of Batman scaring a kid leading to his costume change.

I really like how comics can feel like improv, yes anding each other to create really cool stories greater than any other mediums. Was your inclusion of Vandal Savage yes adding his appearance in Ram's Detective run or the other way around?

I do have a couple more questions, assuming you can answer, but will this arc reference Johns and Fabok's Three Jokers, or is this overriding that? If yes, does Red Mask have anything to do with certain dead Jokers from that story returning?

Thank you for your time and I look forward to the next issues of Mind Bomb and Public Domain... and hopefully Sex Criminals #31 or #420. Cuz anniversary issues 🤷‍♂️
