Once again we return to our regularly-scheduled bullshit.

All the extracurricular bits I’ve been putting out since the 1923 Special dropped have been a remarkable act of procrastination from writing this essay. You may be able to spot some of my working from that, and the recent reread, here. If you do, why not treat yourself to a cookie?

Alex: Here’s an incredibly obvious statement: The Wicked + The Divine is a comic about performance. Like, yeah, dude, do you remember the very first double-page spread? It’s like page 10 of issue #1.

‘Performance’ is always the word WicDiv chooses for the gods doing their artistic thing. Not show, or concert, or act.
