Mmmmm indeed!

I’ve learned that drawing convincing piles of coins is harder than it looks!

WickedCon isn’t on BlueSky, so you’ll need to go remind those guys personally.😜

Thank you!

We’ll see! For pictorial narrative, I think this guy is the record-holder:

A week or so left to go dust off your back issues and work on your cosplay!

Sketchbook on sale shortly!

The TPB collects the series AND it includes the original Starlin/Aparo issues (with the alternate ending) that lead into Robin Lives story line.

Thanks! We were trying for superhero x sci-fi.

The proofs just arrived! So far, very pleased. Won’t be long now!

Josh is reposting some choice Mignola. Follow in awe!

Magic!

Supporting players, setting, antagonists, sneak peeks of Steve’s look, character, and vibe, and a preview of the coming adventure- all prepped for Steve’s entrance in the Sunday strip. Establishing action!!

Every page is a clinic.

Signatures, sketches, and tall tales from bitd! Also, just possibly, something new..

Do NOT sleep on this, just 26 days out! @rick-leonardi.bsky.social will be at the Central Florida Comic Con in Lakeland, FL Jan. 17-18! Get you there to come see him! Tix and info: centralfloridacomiccon.com

😂This is my new all-time favorite cartoon!

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

Fun screengrab!

‘26 coming at you, ready or not!

Twice traveled in the USSR. Each time, US shootings were held up to me as proof of the danger of life in the West, of the failure of the democratic model. For ordinary Soviets, it was a reflexive defense to any criticism of their system..

A snowy morning.

A mortal lock!

I was told this story years ago, but in the telling, the pages weren’t pasted up. In the version I heard PCR actually cut the balloons out of the inked page with a knife! Glad the reality was a little less…furious?! (Not a situation I ever encountered first hand, btw)

The words may peel away, but the pictures live on!😂

I’m honored! Need to step up my sketch game though..

Nice one, Spidey.

Recent covers I've drawn that feature Spider-Man.

Friends, the @heroinitiative.bsky.social is genuinely one of the best things about the comics industry. If you have any extra dollars this holiday season, I hope you'll keep them in mind. www.heroinitiative.org

Well, there was that one time..

Cool! Try a little desaturation. Then note the direction of the incoming light, and cast your shadows accordingly. Look for ways to get separation between the figures. Cheat a little!

14 minutes apart, one from Brooklyn the other from Jacksonville. Identical message. And Verizon just shrugs.

Howard Chaykin yuks. Almost as good as Reuben Flagg’s undercover name: Pete Zarustica.

Personally this is Greek to me. But if YOU see this and know the answer, please chirp!
