I call it “sad wet cat”
👋 Hi Wellies,
First—
Ukazu says, a rising tide lifts all boats, including the S.S. Check, Please! She’s hopeful that the success of Heated Rivalry, as well as another queer romance graphic novel-turned-TV show Heartstopper, will make the dream of seeing her work onscreen into a reality: The book has been optioned for adaptation. — Vanity Fair
Check, Please! has been optioned for a film/television adaptation. A while ago, actually—and that’s lovely. Nevertheless, the vast majority of options do not become television because it takes a million things going right to get projects off the ground.
That being said.
Ahem.
Speaking of getting projects off the ground...
From when Bitty first stepped out into the rink at Faber, to when he kissed the ice at graduation, we've all been part of this fun, weird, magical world of Samwell hockey. But when I left the world of Samwell hockey, I left knowing Jack and Bitty's story was done. Bitty's journey as the first openly gay NCAA Division I hockey captain was done. We baked the last pie; we shut off the lights at the kegster; the story was complete.
…But as I looked around I realized, I had one more story to tell.
Which is why I'm thrilled to announce that a brand new volume of Check, Please! will be serialized in 2026. Dozens of new comics, exciting update drops, your favorite characters with brand new storylines, and characters you've yet to meet.
Hello, Internet Land—SMH is coming home.
This fifth year of Check, Please! will be filled with shenanigans, drama, hockey, pies, Haus parties, and a new message of acceptance that is near and dear to me. And it's been brewing over the last year and half! But with the latest boom in queer hockey stories, I figured, hey! ¯\(ツ)/¯ Here's another one to look forward to. :)
Marginalized athletes still face harmful bigotry, and for this reason, queer sports stories are more important than ever. I love Samwell hockey and how each of you has embraced this roster of athletes.
There's so much more to come.
Ngozi 🏒🥧❤️

MORE NEWS? SURE:
Y’all I was this close to deleting my page before the queen herself hit us with Year 5 news so… welcome back, Wellies?
you wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me
everyone should read Check Please because it has lines like MUST BE MOTHERFUCKING DOWN TO MOTHERFUCKING CLOWN
a lesbian: actually I thought I was a trans man for a while and it turns out I’m just butch
a trans man: oh same! i thought I was a lesbian and it turns out im a trans man
nonbinary person: ive thought I was both and now i realized i’m neither! isn’t it cool how we can all talk about our shared experiences
people who come into my inbox: how dare you have anything in common. you’re invalidating literally every trans and lesbian person at the same time
This is why “queer” is so important for questioning people who know they’re not cishet but haven’t figured out every last micro-label yet, or people whose labels are changing over time, or for someone who doesn’t feel comfortable sharing every last detail of their journey, or, or, or.
Tango: i downloaded grindr for u :) we will find u a man. Together
Whiskey: TANGO NO
Tango: i want my best friend to be happy
Tango: what’s a power bottom
no one on the smh (not even rans believe it or not) knows that holster’s been in theater like almost the entire time he’s been at samwell. and absolutely not a soul from the drama club knows he’s on the hockey team. so imagine his surprise when he’s studying for finals in his room and he hears a very familiar “CALL TIME IS AT 4 SHARP” and he perks up and is then filled with dread at the realization that denice ford is about to blow his cover to bits
💖 THE SAGA 💖
Summer before their junior year Ransom & Holster create a secret language using kazoos and are absolutely unbearable all of preseason and most of September
reading through the extras today and i’d just like to celebrate the fact that the precursor to dex’s “Hot Gay Bartender” look was apparently “47-Year-Old White Dad Gets Kinda Dressed Up to Go to an Applebee’s”
lardo to their family: i have a new girlfriend!
lardo's family: cant wait to meet her :)
lardo: (brings shitty home for the 1000th time)
lardo's family: 😐
going 2 bang pots and pans together and say that jack zimmermann and kent person were not the problem for each other, it was canadian junior hockey and the environment surrounding that was the problem
