This was originally written for ComicMix. The perfect storm of self doubt (Me??) my paranoid thoughts (yeah, that one fits) prompted me to send it to Bleeding Cool instead. ComicMix has an article of mine sitting in its cue that’s been sitting there for weeks. No doubt because of another perfect storm fueled by Murphy’s…
Draft number one of this narrative was written not 24 hours after I met yet another amazing young lady named Paige. This draft is number 15, and at almost six months this is the longest it’s ever taken me to finish a single article. More than two years ago, I wrote about a talented young…
Fair warning: this one is long and a bit sappy. I would, however consider it a personal favor if you would give it a read and send me a hug. I need one. OK, another version of this article will be appearing on Bleeding Cool but this is the Mike Gold special edition, chock full…
This will be hard to believe, but the truth is I seek neither understanding nor accolades regarding my work here and at Bleeding Cool. The bravado and swagger I write with is, more often than not, part of the attitude I’m trying to convey in the article. Frequently, that does not come through – what…
There’s much more to this story at Bleeding Cool. On January 21st of this year, the Washington Post broke the story of the return of Milestone. Missing from the Post and every article since about the new Milestone 2.0 was any mention of me. I’m a founder and co-creator of the original Milestone’s best-known property, Static…
Part 1 of this series can be read at BleedingCool.com Hollywood, I’m sorry. I’ve been wrong. You’re not responsible for the overwhelming opinion the general public has of my industry being just for kids. Yes, SDCC is our house, but our house is all fucked up. We deserve to be viewed as nothing but geeks,…
Happy New Year! I was never so glad to say those words as I was at midnight, seven days ago. 2014 was the best year of my life professionally. Without saying why, that’s saying something. On the flip side, 2014 was the worst year of my life personally. All my life I’ve known that money…
My beloved New York City had, until recently, a law on the books known as “Stop and Frisk.” In a nutshell, it meant if a police officer suspects, for any reason, that you may be up to no good, they can detain and search you. Guess who the majority of people being stopped are? Black…
Rupert Murdoch is one of the most powerful men in American media” He’s a lot more Australian than American but I think he holds citizenship in both countries. Don’t quote me, I really don’t care to know if he does or not. I just find it amusing that darling of the Far Right was born…
Niggers, Get A Fucking Clue Please read last week’s installment . Last week I recounted what happened to me, at the hands of a black woman, while backstage at The Arsenio Hall Show some months ago. I’m not pointing out she was a black woman, that’s not important. What’s important is she’s black. Most, from what…
The image of Icon to the left was on Arsenio Hallâs Facebook page last week. Thereâs a funny story behind that. Well, its funny to me. I like Arsenio. I like him a lot. Iâve met him a few times but we are by no means boys. Whenever I see him Iâd like to think he…
Today is my sister’s birthday. She would have been 60 years old had she lived. She’s been dead twice as long than she was alive. My sister Sharon Davis was assaulted and left for dead in a South Jamaica Queens vacant lot. People passed her all night, if just one would have stopped and gotten…
