So glad her husband got that job so at least one cartoonist in New York can have health insurance.

Cartoonists only want one thing and that is to be appreciated for their hotness by a weird little guy (who is also the mayor of New York) who will take them on a date once in a while.

Extra well-done. Apt for the last day of 2025.

I post this old comic every year

Youtoob knows what I want and what I want is to see the deskulling of a slag pot and breaking of a red hot skull using a Fractum model 100!

Woah! Holy Shit!

I’m working on an autobiographical fiction webcomic (maatcrook.com/demonstrative) and I want to read others! Do you have an autobio webcomic (fiction or non-fiction) or know of some I can read?

Happy 2026

Next week, the next chapter of my webcomic goes live! A new page every Wed at 10am (PT)! In Demonstrative: Year 1 Kittum is a baby named Turkey. Man, Darling, & Mygael are worried when a stranger sweeps the group off on a magical journey. Read the prologue chapter now: maatcrook.com/demons...

🧪A few more hours to go…

I never get tired of a wood oil painting pallet.

THE DAY CARES ARE LOCKED BECAUSE YOU MADE A GENERATION-LONG EFFORT TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO KILL THE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING GHOULS

Fantastic way to learn that MTV still exists.

“Self-deport” is a whitewashed way to describe “fleeing the country under the threat of state violence.” I agree with Maria here — it’s important to call that exactly what it is.

1-page comic

Like a lot of other working artists on the site, I got called a "landlord" because I use copyright protections to limit access to my work in exchange for money. I then use that money to buy things like food, clothing and shelter.

Kind of telling that ABC News/Disney is using the "Trump-Kennedy Center" language to refer to the Kennedy Center despite the fact that it is legally still the Kennedy Center.

Our graphic novel Out of Alcatraz just made Hollywood Reporter’s Best of Year list! Congrats to @mrtylercrook.bsky.social, @besspallares.bsky.social, @gorinson.bsky.social, & @oni-press.bsky.social!

Truth. I've started giving copies of OUT OF ALCATRAZ as a gift to people who know that I've gotten back into comics the last few years but aren't quite sure why (since they know I don't do superhero stuff).

Out of Alcatraz "One of the best comics of the year, regardless of genre." @oni-press.bsky.social @ifyoucantwell.bsky.social

biggest technological revolution of our lifetimes and it's not AI or blockchain or cryptocurrency or metaverse.

He strikes a match with a thumbnail and lights a cigarette. He exhales a cloud a smoke as he quietly acknowledges how good it feels. “Fuggin’ A.“ He leans back and slides his Vintage Akai earphones over his head and hits play on his iPod. “The McElroy brothers are not experts…”

Wow... I've read her letter (which she wrote using AI 🤮) and allll the comments underneath it (including her many many clarifications of said letter), and it's so unintentionally hilarious. 🫠 My reply to her:

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

i think what gets overlooked is that part of the humor and charm of edits like these is that you're perfectly aware that someone sat down and spent their own time making it. they chose to do something cool or silly or stupid or genius, regardless of the results that human element elevates the work

In spite of every day in 2025 feeling like I didn't accomplish enough that day, I still had an okay year. I made some big strides toward getting multiple creator-owned books going and I got way better at oil painting. Not to mention Finishing Out of Alcatraz, one of the best books I ever worked on.

Fuck it. I'm starting my new planner today. I don't even care anymore.

A lil' batman from this weekend. Oil on panel 6x6 inch.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Here’s a timelapse of the tiny zombie oil painting I started on last Friday's live stream! youtube.com/shorts/NKwf3...

It’s in the name. Shouldn’t be hard to figure out.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

This is just going to always be my go-to response to this kind of thing anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

it’s pretty nuts how a throwaway line in so many stories about various public figures is like “btw the president of the united states said this person should be killed”
