There is a new Animal Crossing update coming out. I have no social life & am very depressed, so this is literally THE BEST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED.

Read a preview of FML #6 from Dark Horse Comics, written by Kelly Sue DeConnick with art by David López.

CXC’s first ever full manga track brings together creators from literally around the globe—Japan, France, and here in the U.S.—for four days of programming, events, and workshops that showcase not just Japanese cartooning, but also the vast influence of manga worldwide.

The women around terrible men aren’t secretly heroes of the revolution. They are collaborators.

What movie did you see way too young? Day of the Locust. I was 7. I have no idea what the fuck my parents were thinking. This scene STILL traumatizes me. Like, I think about it TO THIS DAY. youtu.be/wjgA-ToMdvQ?...

ARGH I wish I had some D&D friends to geek out with about D&D news!

Last weekend CBS Sunday Morning featured a segment on Barbara Shermund, one of the first women cartoonists for The New Yorker and other major magazines from the 1920s to the 1960s. Truly, it is quite a story, well worth a watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlCr...

Just talking to my comrades and realise they don't actually have an Eisner ballot, as they're not registered. So, I'm lobbing this in public - anyone in comics (creators, retailers, librarians, educators, editors, whoever) can apply here and vote before June 5th. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I don’t think I’ve ever hated anyone in the way that I hate the incel running the current White House social media account.

TRUTH. Let me tell you the story of the woman who had my mom be her housekeeper for free, in exchange for “sharing her energy.”

openai’s new ghibli “generator” is explicitly an intentional attempt at humiliation of a prominent objector openai is culturally fascist as well as functionally fascist it’s not an accident

MEASLES 📣Reminder! If you're 40+, you should talk to your healthcare provider about getting a titer test &/or MMR booster! I wanted to be tested before getting a booster I might not need, & learned my measles immunity is 👍 Phew! If you're Gen X & or elder millennial - PLEASE CHECK‼️

The epitome of Spring Break in Ohio.

A speaker just asked my freshmen comics students if any of them knew who Frank Miller was and only one of them raised their hand. Oy.

Please please please watch this

I just discovered that there is a lake in Palau that is full of jellyfish who have NO STINGERS. They have no predators in the lake, so they just bloop around eating algae. I WANT TO PLAY BUMPER CARS WITH FRIENDLY JELLIES.

Comics - an undefeated art form, tbh

this is making the rounds on facebook so i thought id bring it here for u m'lord

we could all have enough. everyone. everywhere. certain people made choices that we shouldn't. that's why we live like this. when you understand this, the world will change for you in some ways, and remain the same in others. but poverty and hunger and homelessness are policy choices. not inevitable

If you're looking to make comics this year and aren't hand-lettering, this is your annual reminder that Comicraft's one-day font packages sale is on. ALL fonts are only $20.25, even the ones that usually cost many times more, so don't wait! www.comicbookfonts.com/Default.asp

Pro tip for artists new (or old) to Bluesky. If you’re in the market for work, make sure the top post on your profile is one containing images of YOUR work. Pin that shit! Otherwise it’s often challenging for potential hirers (like me) to find your stuff in your feed when there’s lots of reskeets.
