“wow look at this performative male” actually, that’s a guy reading a book

I know a lot of people are starting to log out for the holidays, so while we're all still here, I just want to share an important annual reminder from Comic Book Dad that you are awesome --

I keep saying this, but the extremely wealthy would rather own an apocalyptic wasteland of burning rubble, than share a prospering planet.

I try to focus on posting about art and comics and not my complaints about the state of everything but GOOD GRIEF

What a delightful story!

Good art cannot be made by machines who watch from the sidelines. It can only be made by real people, who experience the joy and pain of living in the world first hand. Without that, it's just pictures. #art

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Found a pile of these last night. Did them about 15 years ago!

Why does the bluesky logo suddenly look like it's made from salt dough and is about to fall off the wall?

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Stands by the Perimeter Fence and Screams for 30 Seconds Before Vanishing Day to all who observe.

Bit of old-school light relief from me in today’s Guardian. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

jeez, comics are so hard. i can't believe i made a whole book. like sure it took 12% of my entire lifespan to do it, but also, how'd i do that

This thread. Co-signed. Listen to Chris. He knows what he's talking about. And he is ABSOLUTELY correct.

Elmwych comic latest - breaking into mausoleums is exactly why they closed Highgate Cemetery but wolves rush in, as the saying goes. #vampire #werewolf #cemetery

Gearing up for some Halloween fun. #halloween #samhain

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Maybe I’m emotionally exhausted from doctor appointments but their office Halloween decorations skeletons with an enter if you dare sign feels too on point.

People have been SO kind with the Batman designs I've been sharing... Here's my take on Clayface..

Wreathed in mist Edinburgh is the best Edinburgh

D is and will always be, for Ducks.

Will cat and dog be able to set aside their bickering and catch the Elmwych Vampire? More importantly, how does Lydia keep the tangles out of her hair? (suggestions welcome) #vampire #werewolf #leopardman

And hey, while I've got my soapbox out this morning, there is absolutely no excuse for the percentage of women creators on top books in mainstream comics still being this low.

Choose Your Own Adventure Thursday is back! The votes are in across social media and you chose to climb up the Hollywood Sign! Let's see how this one ends... #adventuresoflollipop

then perish 😀

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI

I wonder if we should promote our webcomics like AI actually. My comic is here whether you like it or not. you better get on board or you'll be left behind. Yes it's shit but it's existence renders you obliged to consume it!

Happy Autumn 🍂

Sweater weather

Just a reminder: It's YOUR social media feed. You can block anyone you want for any reason you want and you don't owe anyone an explanation. Your time and attention are priceless. That's why so many people want to claim it for themselves. Don't give it to anyone you don't want to.

🌟 IT LIVES! 🌟 The UK Comics Creator Survey is BACK, baby! Here to gather up, analyse and disseminate your data to help uplift the comics world, like if Robin Hood was a statistician or something. ukcomicscreators.org.uk

UK artist selling to the US- My wonderful assistant Sarah and I are working out how we can still sell to you! Here is what we have found so far. Prints,posters,comics have 0% tarrif BUT Royal Mail will charge 50p per parcel in fees. Tees and Playing cards (MTG??) have 10% tariff plus 50p fees

Idle banter in this Elmych update. I can't promise any actual rabbits on the next page , it's a humourous aside, a turn of phrase, a casual slice of idiomatic speech. Sorry, I know how much you want rabbits. #vampire #werewolf #norabbits

Reissuing this as a point of etiquette

When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine," That's... usually not the case! In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using. We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that? youtu.be/vKDPast9WFk

no joke this is why i throw letters in before i start drawing haha. they don't have to be perfect but it's a real good reminder to leave that space. i'd do it even if i wasn't responsible for the final lettering tbh (this doesn't save me from when i edit my dialogue after i've drawn the thing oc)

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Something special today at BF! Raging Against the Machine: Comics and Generative AI “Art” (Interlude) – Read @tomhumberstone.com Tom Humberstone’s Comic ‘I’m a Luddite! (And So Can You!)’ on AI Art, Luddism and Activism Here at BF. www.brokenfrontier.com/raging-again... #NoToAIArt

Just received this GORGEOUS volume from my friends at @normaeditorial.bsky.social dedicated to the life and works of Maestro PEPE GONZALEZ. 280 pages of just flat out stunning artwork 😍😍😍 from his romance covers and pages to Vampirella to his Hollywood stars portraits.

Last week at Broken Frontier... Raging Against the Machine: Comics and Generative AI “Art” Part 3 – “Generative AI is Fundamentally Colonial and Patriarchal” www.brokenfrontier.com/raging-again...

Looking at art for inspiration: "Ooh, I like this style. Love all the hatching and texture and layers." *remembers the carpal tunnel years* "Maybe not though..."

This feels like a spot of good news www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Censorship doesn’t always come from politicians or pearl-clutching watchdogs. More often, it’s enforced quietly by the companies that handle our transactions. That’s why it’s so important to recognize that we’re not fighting these battles alone. uncensoredartists.beehiiv.com/p/romance-on...
