  • His “Batman: Gotham by Gaslight” was the first full story I remember illustrated by him. Still holds up, IMO.

    Before that I remember buying comics that he’d done the cover art for and being disappointed that he’d not drawn the interior :) Alpha Flight, X-Men, and so on.

    I currently follow his Instagram and got a copy of his Quarantine Sketchbook–so many nice images to pour over!















  • Thank heavens for this man. Working WiFi helped me take my first steps into Linux and FOSS.

    The king has laid himself down and will not rise again, The Lord of [WiFi] will not rise again; He overcame [Broadcom], he will not come again; Though he was strong of arm he will not rise again; He had wisdom and a comely face, he will not come again; He is gone into the mountain, he will not come again; On the bed of fate he lies, he will not rise again, From the couch of many colours he will not come again…



  • Another example is the area around the main train station, which used to be a carpark and bus station. It’s now an open public space and shopping center, viewable here. No cars, plenty of places to sit, and plenty of commerce.

    That section of Krupnicza at the top of the post is doing fine in terms of business. There’s a nice stationery shop, a couple of bakeries, takeaway spots, and even a Starbucks–among others.

    If you insist on a larger area full of trade with cars banned, you might consider ulica Grodzka, running from plac Wszystkich Świętych all the way to Wawel Castle. Several city blocks in length and full of shops and restaurants.

    If none of that impresses, then maybe give us a concrete rubric, and I’ll see what other nice places in Krakow I can suggest.
