Doesn't feel like anyone's talking about it particularly, but I thought Common Side Effects was great.

Was sorry to see Claudia Cardinale go yesterday. Once Upon A Time In The West is one of my absolute all time favourites.

Old tech archive.

Felt a bit trolled watching The Draughtman's Contract.

An unknown tree suddenly appeared in the garden and produced peaches. As the old saying goes, when life gives you unexpected fruit, do something classic with that fruit.

I asked the absolutely strapped police officers on Horse Guards Parade if I was allowed play petanque there. They said they didn't know...but would not advise it.

Age 19, on Plymouth Hoe. New KIOSK newsletter is up! And it's about the chapters of life. Perfect Sunday read. kiosk.substack.com/p/chapters

New piece for The New York Times, for an article on Medicaid.

I hope drawing and gardening don't go out of fashion in the future.

Spent a week down Devon/Cornwall. It was on good form.

Bit of dramatic summer rain at the weekend. Reminded me of this little animation made from a panel in Victory Point.

Scanning the seabed.

This was such a lovely comic! I loved how the architecture was both the backdrop and the subject, the story was poetic and the illustrations were really really beautiful!

And here are three very different fictional tales: French maestro Jacques Tardi adapts Leo Malet's hard-boiled crime Noir, @paulbrainey.bsky.social 's Why Don't You Love Me is a fascinating, slow burn reveal, @odpomery.bsky.social 's Victory Point uses architecture as much as characters...

Landing craft.

Perhaps not the biggest casualty of the situation, but AI has really destroyed my sense of wonder. Every time I see something interesting/amazing online now, I just think 'probably AI' and move on, becasue I don't have the time to research whether it is or isn't.

Busy skies.

Are you French and/or English? Don't worry, I've got you covered! Available in all good bookshops and online.

Cracking up.

Few I quite like from my latest analogue reel.

Water riots.

Exploring the vast unknown.

Quintin's account was one of my absolute favourites on twitter, and continues to be here.

No one thought to tell me there's an original K67 kiosk in Spitalfields Market, then?

Bishops Rock Lighthouse.

Not sure what to make for dinner? KIOSK has got you covered >>> kiosk.substack.com/p/serving-up...

Water Pressure. New piece for The Believer magazine.

Blimey. Not a single grey hair.

Big buoy, ahoy.

Ada's cabin.

The Hard Switch is out in French! Published by Editions Sarbacane!

Have a good weekend.

The scales of justice.

Props to the stag do that emerged from the New Forest and entered the quiet rural pub I was drinking at on Saturday, fully dressed as the fellowship of the ring on the hottest day of the year.

Summer Solstice this weekend!

Thank you, @stanfordsbristol.bsky.social !!

Struggling artist.

Got myself a new state of the art pencil sharpener.

The weird process of revisiting an older project. Some thoughts.

I wrote a new KIOSK newsletter about making my first 'proper' graphic novel, 'British Ice'. kiosk.substack.com/p/british-ice

Little new fiction cover I did for a McSweeny's insert earlier this year.

You first.

Working out some bits and pieces.

The Hard Switch & Victory Point by @odpomery.bsky.social take us from space opera (ideal for fans of Firefly or Becky Chambers) to family relationships & Modernist architecture. Both from excellent UK Indie @averyhill.bsky.social #books #livres #GraphicNovels #BandeDessinee

Signed a stack of softcover editions of The Hard Switch for @goshcomics.bsky.social last week. Get 'em while they're hot!

I’m on holiday. First read of the long weekend was The Hard Switch by @odpomery.bsky.social. Great sci-fi 🚀 with solid worldbuilding 🌌, a good story – and a squid 🦑 working as an engineer. What more do you need?

Went to Rye last week, and couldn't resist visiting 'Starlock', an early UK modernist house designed by Frank Scarlet. It's almost 100 years old now!
