in 2010 I did a 50 States Tour (and DC, too). I fell in love with all of them, honestly, because in each one I met someone who could explain why they cared so much about their home. that trip eradicated any patriotism or nationalism I had and replaced it with a deep love for people and culture.

I love my city.

There is exactly one thing that needs to happen on Independence Day. One tradition The only thing that absolutely had to happen was fireworks, and Trump fucked it up because he couldn't stop talking

Love to #stayhydrated so I brought my water bottle to this moderately patriotism-inclined Pennsylvania lakeside beach on July 4th forgetting its adorned with this A+ sticker by @ryandunlavey.bsky.social and my kid sees it and states loudly “SO WHAT DID KARL MARX DO EXACTLY PAPA?!”

new metaphor just dropped

My partner, our kids and her extended family - absolutely. Other than my brother and one uncle I don’t think any of my living blood relatives even know what I do for a living.

It's my birthday! 🥳 Once again, this means everyone is legally required to peruse my shop wares and/or share this post - ko-fi.com/elainemwill/...

Any comic artist folks who would be interested in jumping on a pitch with A Publisher? Sequential experience an absolute must, and previously published is preferred. If you enjoy drawing dinosaurs, historical fashions, and stylish action, it'll be up your alley. Happy to share details!

Put together a bundle of four of my self-published comics for $20 (usually $25). Not available anywhere else in the world and I only have a handful left, get 'em while they're lukewarm: ryandart-shop.fourthwall.com/products/dis...

Happy to report that every live-action Superman film that I have seen in the theater* has been a good time at the movies. (*Superman 1978, Superman II, Superman 2025 and Supergirl 2026)

I have more issues of MY BULLSHIT and BAD GUY in the works (after I get through my current project that will take the rest of the summer to complete). In the meantime - plenty of back issues in stock! ryandart-shop.fourthwall.com/products/my-...

Giant Home Depot Skeletons are not a personality

I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

I'M GONNA BE IN LONG ISLAND, FOLKS!!!

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

My advice for drawing a 200-page graphic novel in six months is the same as my advice for life in general: Figure out a way to make it interesting or you'll go insane

25 years later, Rodney Mullen's ending video for Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 remains the most astonishing feat of athleticism I've ever seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1Ye...

So @matthewbogart.bsky.social just released a new minicomic on Patreon that has me in tears and I think everyone should read it. It feels reductive to call a story "human," but Matt really does make the most human stories. They're sensitive and lovely and perfect. www.patreon.com/matthewbogar...

Did a bunch of sketches at Heroes Con 2026 but THIS one was the most fun, by a mile. I've been a fan of Evan Dorkin since my buddy Matt Johnson gave me his extra copy of Milk & Cheese #1 in 1991 (which I still have!) but never drew his characters before. I need to draw more creator-owned fan art!

Name a TV show you’re positive no one remembers but you. (it's been a lonely life)
