From the Golden Age of comic strips, Geo McManus's Bringinging Up Father. A strip about Irish Immigrants winning the sweepstakes and becoming nouveau-riche. Amazing! Thanks to my daughter Sophie for getting this for me.

Got to see Frankenstein before it comes to Netflix November 7th. Loved seeing Guillermo Del Toro's gorgeous visuals on the big screen.

Late night inking wearing a robe with big sleeves. THAT would be a mistake... 😑

Spider-Man was torn off of the top of my Little Free Library. A little "trick" on Halloween I assume. Luckily this was just a print and not an original painting like the last one. Still disappointing. I think that does it for me for putting any art out there. 🫤

Remmick from the movie, Sinners. Happy Halloween! 🎃🎃🎃

AI tech companies and investors are pushing big time that AI be used for everything. Not because it needs to be, but because of big profits no matter the cost to the rest of us.

It's Bernie Wrightson's birthday! (October 27, 1948 – March 18, 2017) Here's Wrightson's segment from the 1987 documentary, The Masters of Comic Book Art. Hosted by Harlan Ellison. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig_y...

I like to reference places in the Twin Cities when drawing Sally Forth. For the 10/27/2025 it’s Armatage Elementary School, where my kids all went. More places I’ve used on my Patreon at patreon.com/posts/119614337

Sketchbook drawing of Keke Palmer. Experimenting with Sakura Gelly Roll pens for touch-ups. Not bad, but have to play with it to get it nice and opaque. My go-to for white-out are the Presto correction pens.

Flash Gordon headshot using Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pens. Working on the Sally Forth comic strip as my day job, I have to re-remember how to draw in this style.

Facebook memory from two years back - Minnesota Cartoonists lecture done in conjunction with the big Peanuts exhibit at the Minnesota Historical Center. Covered cartoonists past and present - there's a lot of 'em!

President bone spurs' many false claims during his rambling speech to top U.S. military officials. www.cnn.com/2025/09/30/p...

Trump revealed that he wants to use American cities as training grounds for the armed forces, and Hegseth declared he wants to end “woke” culture. That hundreds of top U.S. military officials were abruptly summoned from around the world for this crap... I'm at a loss for words.

Love this quote. A nice reality check from someone who's been in the biz even longer than me. It's in reference to getting the work done whether you're in the mood to do it or not.

Remember that What If story where Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy fell asleep on top of that bridge, and then Gwen's leg fell asleep, and when she woke up it was tingling like crazy, and then Spider-Man just kept sleeping? That was AWESOME! (Read like Chris Farley)

Reanimating the dead with AI just freakin' creeps me out.

With comics always on the brain, stopped into a Books A Million store which recently opened up nearby - here's a quick review! patreon.com/posts/books-million-139939993

No more CGI and more of this. I'm dead serious - this commercial from 1975 is so much more entertaining. 😁

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Tylenol was introduced in 1955, and then my brother Tom was BORN LEFT-HANDED IN 1963! Granted, my Dad was also left-handed hand, but that's irrelevant. SCIENCE! Thanks to my niece Emily for bringing this to light in regards to the recent orange dumpster fire announcement about autism.
