Without Noel Sickles, there's no Milt Caniff, no Alex Toth, no Frank Robbins. He's the source for a huge slice of how comics are drawn.

The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at oops wait hang on aww crap

More LINK. And...friends?

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.

I hate unboxing videos. HOWEVER, I am a CARTOONIST. So.

This is charming as hell.

Coming in December! STARTLING TALES OF SANTA CLAUS 2025 ANNUAL! 80 pages of fantasy adventure Christmas comics feat. @seakae.com @docshaner.bsky.social @nedroid.com @emmetthgraham.bsky.social @nickfil.bsky.social @longtalljodie.com Six stories, all new or in print for the first time!

Kids would read more American comics if they were encouraged to crumple, tear, throw them in backpacks and generally beat the hell out of them. Big advantage of manga and scholastic ogns is that they’re sturdy and no adult is telling you to delicately put them in a plastic sleeve in a cool dark box.

And here's Lucy Bellwood with some INCREDIBLY useful advice for comics writers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXO1... @lubellwoo.bsky.social

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Speaking of Otomo, this is where I admit I haven't read Akira because I'd rather read it right to left and wasn't sure which edition to get so I kept putting it off. Anybody get that new hardcover edition from Kodansha that just came out?

Hahaha

thank you detroit lions have a good day

Hi ICE killed a single dad at a traffic stop here on Friday Today they are disappearing people again in broad daylight, they are everywhere If you have any national platform at all Chicago is fucking begging you, please help us

I had enough people reach out to me privately after this the other day that I wanna reassure folks that I'm okay. I turned 40 this year, it was a long and trying summer, I had a nasty head cold and last week was dark. So just the mid-life working-in-comics crisis that I have to assume we've all had.

Comic book creators! Whatever you had planned today, it's gonna have to wait. Go watch this! www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/...

This will fix me: @docshaner.bsky.social edition.

I was invited to our middle school's career day but for the second year I've politely declined because I worry that I'll start off by blurting out that I regret not just finishing my music degree instead of switching and it'll just go downhill from there

it’s cool that bluesky is bending over for conservatives and banning people making jokes about charlie kirk’s death. as we all know, once you give in to the right they will leave you alone

Expecting marginalized people to feign sympathy for a racist hate monger who built his career on selling the idea that the country would be better off without them is ‘passive aggressive oppressive’.

There are people dedicated to our extermination, in their own words, and we don't owe them anything.

I'm glad somebody else nabbed this one before I could get to it, but I -am- definitely going to spend the rest of the week thinking about it.

Reposting for the afternoon and west coast crowd. Alex Toth. $50 and up

Found while organizing after moving the office- Outtakes from the cover to Terrifics #15, aka @mitchgerads.bsky.social's profile pic. By my kids way back in '19. Translations in the alt text.

Got it because (1) I've heard of it and (2) I like the cover.

I won’t be at Rose City this weekend, but I am taking commissions from home! Watercolors are the most popular, and start at $250. You can purchase through my site and select the exact options you want! jonathancase.net/store?catego...

COMIC BOOK EDITORS & CREATORS! I'm available for logo work, book design, brand design and consultation, marketing/social media templates and graphics, etc. If you’re a cool person and want to make a cool thing, drop me a line. dylantodd.com/work

with peace and love, I'm pretty deeply invested in American comics and Japanese comics both, and I'm not sure that pitting them against each other has ever been the answer. I'm still developing a strong take, but it feels like asking if Cinnamon Toast Crunch is beating cheeseburgers in the polls.

I've been busy with the move and haven't had much opportunity to draw. Getting back into it.

Hey all- I'm currently in the middle of moving my office and looking to consolidate a bit, so I'm running a 35% off sale on the original art store - docshaner.bigcartel.com Now through Monday, please share if you feel moved to do so.

c'monnnnnnnn

Often find myself looking at what Dodier's done with Jérôme K. Jérôme Bloche and wishing I were working on something akin to it. In spirit and scale more than anything, though I do love a lot of the genre trappings of the series.

King Features was moving some offices and found a trove of Flash collections, which they were kind enough to send me — including two gorgeous Dan Barry tomes and the excellent @jeffparker.bsky.social @docshaner.bsky.social series, which is my usual answer to "how do I get into reading Flash Gordon?"

Been sitting here typing and deleting and typing and deleting and have come to the conclusion that I have too many thoughts about movies repeatedly trying to adapt Westlake/Stark's Parker books to even think straight

Sometimes I think back to 2017 when all of the fascist shit started happening and so many democrat politicians looked somberly into the cameras &, like a sitcom dad, told us that these trying times demonstrate JUST HOW fragile democracy is… Then they all did nothing but capitulate for 4 years.
