Like what you saw or read here? Interested in getting rid of some of that pesky extra money you've got just sitting under your mattress? Well, consider throwing a few bucks in my tip jar!
Are you tired of having to comb through dozens of articles trying to figure out if DC Comics has done something cringeworthy today?

So shocked and sad to hear that The Toonseum here in Pittsburgh was robbed today. Among what was taken was the director’s laptop, which contained a lot of the planning materials for the upcoming Comics Arts Festival being thrown to celebrate the National Cartoonists Society Conference being held in our city this year.
The Toonseum is an amazing place, it helps to preserve and share comics, cartoons and animation as an artform. They run classes for students of all ages, bring some great exhibits and artists to the area and throw some pretty damn sweet shindigs.
If you are able to help them out at all in the wake of this robbery, please head to their donation page. If not, please at the very least pass this message along!
Thank you!

Tyrion is always the favourite.
“I’M TYRION” said EVERY TYRION FANBOY EVER.
(Also, shut up, Teddy, you know you’re secretly a huge Sansa fan.)
EDITED TO ADD: I also kind of hope at some point, Miss America sits down the boys and explains to them how The Hunger Games is clearly the superior book series. Explains with her fists.
