Wow! What a week! As much as I love that PAWS can be found in 13 languages all over the world, there's something so special about topping a bestsellers list here at home! 😊 My thanks to all the Canadian booksellers, librarians, parents and kids who made last week's launch such a huge success! ❤️🍁

Big thanks to everyone who came out to Kidsbooks in Vancouver last night to help me and Michele celebrate the launch of the latest PAWS book, The Trouble With Leo! Truly a high water mark for me in almost twenty years making comics!

Here comes trouble! 🥳 The fifth volume of PAWS, The Trouble With Leo, from Penguin Random House, is in stores now! Available wherever books are sold! 🥳

As a huge fan of the CBC and supporter of public radio, I was thrilled to sit down yesterday with On The Coast to talk about The Trouble With Leo, the fifth book in the PAWS series, which will be in stores in two weeks! www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

This Valentine's Day, press start on romance 💘 Go on a date (or double date 👀) across time-warped Toronto! Scott Pilgrim EX's demo is live NOW on Steam!🌀 #ScottPilgrimEX

I had an absolute blast coloring the mini-comic for the new Scott Pilgrim game from @tributegames.com. If you like Scott Pilgrim and you like video games, then do yourself a favor and go check it out!

And (not to toot my own horn) I got to do some background assists! It's a fun one. Very happy to have played a small role in Supes/Spidey!

I am utterly delighted to share that @mattfraction.bsky.social @stevelieberart.bsky.social @claytoncowles.bsky.social and I briefly got the Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen band back together to do a back-up story in Superman/Spider-Man #1. In stores March 25!

DC's Supergirl Next Door is out today! It was a blast to contribute a Guy Gardner story to this fun Valentine's-themed anthology. Big thanks to editor extraordinaire @amarino2814.bsky.social for letting me have fun with everyone's least favorite ginger bowlcut!

Today’s the day!! BATMAN & ROBIN: YEAR ONE (12 issue collection) out NOW! 📚 softcover & hardcover 📚 By @markwaid.bsky.social me, @matlopes.bsky.social @giovannaniro.bsky.social @claytoncowles.bsky.social @amarino2814.bsky.social @roblevin.bsky.social ISBN9781799502319 320 pages! 6-5/8 x 10-3/16

My upcoming middle grade graphic novel Inbetweens (which is based on my mixed experience at animation college) got a starred review in School Library Journal! YAY! www.slj.com/review/inbet...

Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

Very cool to see PAWS included again on the CBC's list of best Canadian children's books of the year. Hazel Has Her Hands Full is one of only two middle grade graphic novels on the list! Thanks, CBC! 😊 www.cbc.ca/books/the-be...

Ha! I just saw the final proof for the short story I wrote for DC's Supergirl Next Door anthology! Rafael Pérez turned in some really fun, impressive work for his first DC gig; great letters by Dave Sharpe; and look at this gorgeous @amyreeder.bsky.social cover! Final Order Cutoff is Dec. 15!

I just saw the sad news that Drew Hennessy has passed. I didn't know him personally but had the pleasure of coloring some of his work. He was a brilliant inker—a master of the craft. Please take a moment to read these recollections by those who knew him best: perkyposts.blogspot.com/2025/11/drew...

The DIE!DIE!DIE! deluxe hardcover is out TODAY! It collects all 14 issues of violent hilarity plus the most time-consuming back matter in comics history! Robert Kirkman! Scott Gimple! Chris Burnham! Nathan Fairbairn! Buy! Buy! Buy!

Amazing to see this book still getting some love even eight years after it came out. Thanks so much for the support, Jeff! ❤️

Man, I needed some good news today. Thanks, Google Alerts! Looks like Hazel Has Her Hands Full is the 22nd best-selling Canadian book of 2025 so far. 😳 It's been on the Kids bestsellers list all year, but I'm shocked to place so high among all Canadian authors. quillandquire.com/omni/indie-b...

A quick reminder that Edvin Biukovic was a genius and my favourite cartoonist.

Huzzah! I'm thrilled that I can finally reveal the title, cover and release date to the fifth volume of PAWS, by me and Michele Assarasakorn. The Trouble With Leo will be in stores March 3, 2026! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/FNN/p...

Oh, man. I loved working on this book. 😍

Whoa @nathanfairbairn.bsky.social had to do this gag TWICE?!?

Thrilled to finally be able to share the cover to the deluxe hardcover collection of Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen. An absurd amount of work, but fun to do. Fantastic work by @stevelieberart.bsky.social , @mattfraction.bsky.social and @claytoncowles.bsky.social. In stores everywhere July 29th!

Got my comps of the Die!Die!Die! HC today and it is a thing of horrific beauty! Good work @robertkirkman.bsky.social @skybound.bsky.social @nathanfairbairn.bsky.social @ruswooton.bsky.social & Scott Gimple!

The wonderful folks at Puffin Books are running a graphic novel competition for under-represented UK authors, so if you've got a story to tell, why not put together a submission and give it a shot! Find out more by going to: www.penguin.co.uk/discover/chi... Good luck!

Hey, look what came in the mail! If you're a Canadian author or illustrator, please make sure to register your work with the Canada Council for the Arts Public Lending Right program, which compensates authors for the presence of their books in Canada's Public libraries.

Wow. Having a little trouble processing this news. After stalling out for a few weeks at #2, PAWS: Hazel Has Her Hands Full is the #1 bestselling Canadian kids book this week. 😳 www.cbc.ca/books/what-c...

Huzzah! It's my book birthday! Hazel Has Her Hands Full, the fourth book in the PAWS series by Michele Assarasakorn and me, is out now from Putnam Penguin Random House! Available wherever books are sold! ❤️ 🐾

My office is a mess because of Christmas time and end of the year binge reading not being cleaned up yet, but this is where I do my dark bidding on SKTCHD and Off Panel. Your space really makes me want to spruce mine up!

Okay, Bluesky, I’m going to give this social media thing one more (last?) try, and I’d like to start by checking in on all of my comics friends to see where they’re at. And I mean that literally—show me your workspace, and maybe let me know what you’re working on! I’ll start! #WorkspaceWednesday

While I'm dusting off my Bluesky account, I suppose I'd better mention that the boxed set of the first three volumes of PAWS is now in stores, just in time for Christmas shopping! 😉

Just approved the upcoming Danish edition of PAWS volume 4 (in stores January 14th!) and thought I'd take a moment to express gratitude. I'm so thrilled that our series has been such a success internationally. Twelve translations and a British Commonwealth edition! More than I ever hoped for. ☺️

Hi! I joined Bluesky a few weeks ago but was unsure if I'd ever post here. I've had a pretty big shift in my career path and nowadays very little of my audience is even online. Plus, the last year on Twitter really killed my interest in social media. So I've been lurking here. And it's been nice!
