Mail call #2: ‘Pirates: A Graphic History’ by @silvaniart.bsky.social via @kickstarter.com

That Tylenol news conference gave me flashbacks to my 6th grade book report I had to give on Tom Sawyer. (To this day I have not read, nor will I probably ever read Tom Sawyer)

Thanks, @silvaniart.bsky.social! My copy of Pirates arriving is a delightful surprise in this SWELTERING GODDAMN HEAT

My Rapture outfit

Thanks for your support. Read it with rum!

Looks like backers are finally receiving the first shipments of Pirates: A Graphic History! Show me your copy with your best pirate face!

What movie(s) do you consider "perfect"?

Happy Batman Day!

It’s #talklikeapirateday Wanna learn how to talk like a pirate? How about steal, fight and drink like a pirate? Well mateys, have I got a graphic novel for you! Pirates: A Graphic History will be available at New York Comic Con next month and through my store in time for the holidays!

And just when I was starting to forgive the Mouse for Rise of Skywalker…

I think if I had an opportunity to write Scrooge, the first thing I would do is debunk the idea that the money bin was a gold coin hoard. It was always meant to be cash. Like the world’s largest loose change jar. Gold is fine for animation but comics should stick to the “money” bin mold.

I'm having a little trouble getting used to my new CPAP machine.

Battle doomscrolling by posting 5 small pleasures in life: 1. Going to Target for soap and finding a new action figure you didn’t know was out. 2. Pillow-sized burritos served wet 3. A row to yourself on a redeye. 4. A new chapter in the Fantagraphics Carl Barks library 5. Rain

“Oooooooh no ya don’t” Last call on NYCC commissions. This is for in-person pickup at the con only. Starting at $140. Email me at silvaniart at gmail with your requests.

Why would anyone design power tools with this color scheme? It’s just begging them to combine to form some ferkakta robot that only robot that only takes orders from Megatron

How do you answer your phone?

I wrote and illustrated a humorous, handy dandy guidebook about everything pirates. It was my first Kickstarter and funded on the first day. I more than doubled my goal and am in the middle of fulfillment. It will be available for general sale around the holidays.

I know I wouldn’t mind going back next year. I’ll bring lotsa ducks and pirates with me. What could be more Orlando?

Age Verification? Sorry, I left it in the trash compactor of my Kenner Death Star playset

Currently working on a D!sney project and discovering how easy it is to do it without using AI. Go figure.

Okay, what in Zuckerberg’s zooming zeitgeist happened to instagram?!?!

Last call on getting some Game Changing original art for NYCC. Commission preorders close this week. Email me at silvaniart at gmail to snag yours, doc!

Artists, quote with your woman art!

Thanks Dragon Con for a great show. The artist alley is one of the best run in the business with comic pros front and center, Print mills off to the sides and AI on the curb outside!

Drop an old person you’re going to turn into in the future.

“He’s a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Duck Knight.” Dragon Con commission.

Dragon Con day 3! Come see me in the Comic & Pop Artist Alley to get your copy of Pirates: A Graphic History and lots of original art! #arrr

Dragon Con is here and you can find me in the Comic & Pop Artist Alley at table 214. I’ve got Pirates: A Graphic History, Draw-A-Saurus and lotsa original art! It’s more fun than a barrel of hard tack!

Bulkhead window seat will do nicely for a redeye, thank you very much!

I’ll bet you didn’t know we had wild geese and rhinos here on Maui. Here’s a quick video of the geese but you’ll have to trust me on the rhinos (sound up)

Double the powder and shorten the fuse, Atlanta! I will be at DragonCon this weekend. You can find me in the Comic & Pop Artist Alley at table 214. I’ll have copies of Pirates: A Graphic History and Draw-A-Saurus plus lots of original art!

If I had known they were giving out free graham crackers in urgent care, I would have gotten a staff infection YEARS ago.

I've never done this before, but I'm going to drop the minimum bid on the Buzz Lightyear group to $300. $300 can buy a lot for a food bank! Feel free to bid higher. Send your bid to [email protected].

First batch of Pirates: A Graphic History are packed up and ready to scuttle off to the post office. If you ordered one, check your email for details. If you don’t order one, what the hey?!?

Someone sounds jealous of the hippies long, white, luxurious pony tails.

The biggest stresser of my book campaign has been the shipping, especially for a one man operation. There's like 500 options and none of them easy to sign up for or connect to your Kickstarter. Luckily I found an easy option, so Pirates: A Graphic History is going to ship via... PirateShip.com

Cowabiscuits! NYCC commissions are open. 9x12” full color starts at $140 per character. The only way to guarantee an original piece is to preorder!

If a panel ain't at least 40% sound effects, it ain't worth drawin'!

‪If you see this, post something purple!💜 Well that was a little too easy.
