I finally read through all of @animeherald.com's new magazine and it was awesome! It's so great to physically hold and flip through such a thing, and I love the focus on animanga culture history.

This is a departure from the normal kind of work I do, but it was great to work on. This is HOME BASE, a collection of letters focused around my great grandfather, who was a baseball player. The letters and the idea of the project have been around for a long time (longer than me, even).

The 70s Super Robot That Didn’t Have an Anime: Gattai Robot Atlanger Introduction When talking about the mecha genre, omitting the merchandise component often tells an incomplete story. Most shows are historically also toy commercials, and sometimes decisions can be traced to bottom lines more…

It's not often that I draw a design that immediately becomes a character to me, but it happened here.

Mazinger Z... wasn't the first piloted robot! I believe both of these robots appeared in 1967, before Mazinger Z's 1972 debut. Say hello to Giant Atlanta (巨人アトランタ) and Daimachine (大マシン)! #superrobot #manga #retromanga

I'm working on a similar piece to my "Gundam: Now and Then" image, and here's a preview. There's honestly not a lot of anime robot designs I can think of that have different iterations (of the same design, not like an upgraded form) that aren't already noticed by the fandom.

I have discovered a way to update Daitetsujin 17 for modern audiences. #daitetsujin17 #大鉄人17 #sixseven

In a previously unpublished manuscript, Amuro purchases hentai on Side 6 while on leave with White Base. This particular work was published in 1996 but was done around 1981-1982. Illustrated by Rikako Kugayama, Osamu Dezaki's wife.

I had the great opportunity to design a poster for the new @mspfa.com merch release! It's been a while since I've had my fingers in the MSPFA pie, but I was overjoyed to be asked to contribute a design. Sometimes it really pays to have been a Homestuck fan in high school! #homestuck #mspfa

Since looking at the intricacies of the old Gundam design, I've wanted to try doing my own take on it. I got overzealous with the torso and Core Fighter, though. #gundam #mobilesuitgundam #rx-78-2 #amuroray

More retro-style Gundam #gundam #mobilesuitgundam #rx-78-2

RX-78-2 GUNDAM: NOW AND THEN I really love the classic look of the Gundam, so I wanted to understand all its differences compared to the modern interpretation of the RX-78-2. And there's no better way to learn something well than to teach others! #gundam #mobilesuitgundam #rx-78-2

I think Gundam jeans could look really good. And everybody remembers Denim, the Zaku pilot from episode 1, right? #gundam #amuro

New translation! From Masako Yashiro, a major name in shoujo and influence on Year 24 members, comes a startling, complex fairy tale turned existential nightmare ripped straight from a 1969 issue of COM... Enjoy the masterful one-shot "You Dropped Your Shadow" here!!

At long last, I am pleased to announce that a 4K/HD release of Manga Research Group ATLAS' Battle Comics Pate is now available on the web. This is vol.4 of the sub-imprint of the circle and features work from Masamune Shirow among many others. More below as usual:

18/26 (February 17, 1952) for my money maybe the masterpiece strip of the manga. what a great piece of energy and perspective to just run across in the newspaper

🧵There's a combination of the right setting and state of mind Ron is in, leading to art and writing opportunities that take advantage of the unique circumstances Concrete finds himself in. Scale and the compression of scenes into panels are played with to consistently interesting affect.

George Akiyama's The Moon is a really great underappreciated robot manga #themoon #georgeakiyama #ザ・ムーン #ジョージ秋山

The Moon by George Akiyama is an incredible Giant Robot comic and well worth a read, very short too.

Really haunted by this Margot Ferrick page I saw earlier, it's got the lurid uncanny sheen of a Hajime Sorayama piece but instead of eroticism it just exudes desperation and grief

"Character change from #27 (episode 27) in the Animal Warrior Gundam". An official setting document created by staffers on episode 27 of Mobile Suit Gundam, albeit the designer has not been identified. This document was later sold in sets released by Animec during 1980 to about 1983.

I recently wrote some criticism and offered some background information on doujinshi, queer or otherwise, that Yoshiyuki Tomino & Sunrise Studio II official acknowledged during Gundam's original 1979-1980 run, many by female fans. Link will be in the thread below! 🧵
