Billy Bat spans decades and shows comics within the comic. The very first page in Japanese actually uses Blambot fonts. But those weren't around in 1949, so we used period-appropriate fonts and hand lettering.

I designed an alien based on one of my new favorite fonts.

It's a terrible kind of radar sense.

Step aside, tacticool, it's time for TOYETICOOL to play!

Fascinating scene from Tagawa Suiho's Madono Yukio-san, Tagawa's longest-lived serialized strip in Shojo Kurabu (1935-1939): Yukio, who is studying comics under Tagawa (as a character within the story) is asked by a little girl what the ? marks that appear in comics are.

Like halfway into writing the script for my last comic I realized that it was probably subconsciously influenced by the Zeit Zeiger strip I just reposted.

Here's the link to the Kickstarter! Check it out! www.kickstarter.com/projects/130...

I helped out a little with a Kickstarter for a neat sofubi, and naturally I'm a fan of the design so I drew some fan art. Check out Dislocation Toys' Carmila! The Kickstarter only just dropped today, too!

when i decided to go with the cape-wings, the entire concept moved away from just a moth to include more bird-like and mammalian features. this is when Man-Moth becomes a bugbear in the original sense of the word

I love the way Hayato looks in Zeta Gundam. He's just some guy who grew up #gundam #zetagundam

I'm releasing a quick font called SKYFANG! It was inspired by the logo for a video game I have never played. It's licensed under the SIL Open Font License, which pretty much means you can use it anywhere with no fuss. You can download it here! chaseburns.itch.io/skyfang-font #font #openfontlicense

Lichtenstein's Monster I had to dust off the ol' Image Duplicator for this one.

It will always be my mission any time a Roy Lichtenstein theft appears in my feed to remind the world others did it first and better — in this case Russ Heath, artist for the story "Aces Wild," written by Hank Chapman, and published in All-American Men of War #89 (Jan-Feb 1962).

Thinking about how Galvion somehow managed to make an Ingram almost five years before Patlabor. It even had the leg holster before Robocop.

I really love the Barzam's design. It's a weird looking grunt suit that started appearing with no fanfare at all. #gundam #barzam

For Golden Week, Quattro is getting Hyaku Freaky in the Hyaku Shikini #gundam #quattrobajeena

INSANELY successful shoot yesterday for the revised climax of DREAD PLANET. It's wild how much this has elevated an already pretty fun project. Huge thanks to everyone who came out to help, my friends fucking RULE.

I feel a little sheepish at the notion of posting more traditionally cheesecakey illustrations, so I have another drawing that sort of balances things out that I'll post tomorrow. I think it aligns more with my followers, and honestly the joke is better too.

Whenever Golden Week rolls around I always enjoy seeing the lighting rendering.

When I drew Quattro recently, his sufficiently buff arms and curly blond mop reminded me too much of Matt Johnson. It'd be an awful fancast but I drew this anyway.

Alright, taking the mask off now. A few years ago, this "らロひレ ロチ てロチチモモ" (Soul of Coffee) thing went kind of viral, and even made its way into Detective Conan—English text using Japanese letterforms, confusing anyone who knows Japanese. …But what about the reverse?

It's an interesting mental exercise to think of what manga would be fitting to letter with the serif-heavy Daniel Clowes lettering.

Tezuka manga covers from Japan that didn’t use Tezuka’s art. Typically for special collections or re-releases. It’s fun seeing how different artists reinterpret his characters.
