I love when Minnesotans do fan art of each others work👏👏👏🤘❤️

I love being engaged locally in the cartoonist community especially getting to see pages as #WIP I can’t wait for this really fun book to come out! It’s pure comic book joy

Anyway here's a space guy

If you’re not following James, aka Goblin Mouth, do so now but at your own risk. More great talent from the twin cities area, James is really nailing down some trippy horror. I especially enjoyed Time Zones. What if time zones were a physical manifestation as well. A wacked out esoteric trip

Hey Everyone! If you haven’t met Russ @doodlehoff.bsky.social now is great time to meet this ingenious MN artist and creator. His new collection of trading cards are going to be a hit this fall. You can get them at Eau Claire Con in WI or Fallcon in the Twin Cities! Show us more Russ!👏👏👏

Say hello to Ari Grace! 👏👏👏Another great talent from MN!

Look at those lips!!!! Great ink work from @jad-art.bsky.social and his upcoming book “Finding Kismet”
