Find me at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social festival this weekend in Harrogate, I'll be in the 2000AD Hall, Table B42. I'm launching HARU: Book 3, and will have copies with me, both paperback and hardback. I'll also have some original comic art too. Come find me and say hi!

It’s almost @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social time - perfect time to brush up on some essentials thanks to @kidscomicsunite.bsky.social 💚

That's a wrap on Project Pixel Panels regular, which means both versions are now done. I need to come up with a permanent name and do some preview graphics before I can release it to you. Not sure how to do pixel art. Never done that before.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Anyone sent a parcel to USA recently? I just had one returned by DPD with no comments on why. I filled out the pro-forma invoice etc. It was a gift. Not sure why or what service to try instead. Royal Mail Click & Drop wouldn't let me do it at all. Any advice? My local post office has recently closed
