Hark! A thread of comics I've been borrowing from the library! (Shout out @stlpubliclibrary.bsky.social) 1. IN UTERO by chrisgooch44.bsky.social. Such a well-executed tale about friendship and self-discovery. Also has maybe the first-ever body horror imagery that's oddly satisfying to look at??

Wanted to share some fun logo work I did for a local business owner friend! Would love to do more like this.

Another note on SFX: The thing or action making the sound should be shown in the panel with the SFX! Like, if you have photography SFX in a panel ("POP" "FLASH"), ya gotta show that camera doing the thing. Either that, or show the source of the sound in a subsequent panel, like this.

Comics freelancers: How do we feel about publishers' typical net-30 payment terms? AFAIK, many of us aren't paid anything up front and don't have much negotiating power. It's frustrating, considering the small-press and individual creators I work with usually pay within a week of invoice!

Always so lovely to hear feedback like this!! I'm available for comics lettering, design, and pre-press work through 2026 and beyond 😽

Where my Western lovers at?! Back some awesome comics from writer @jamilscalese.bsky.social, who has my wholehearted endorsement as a super talented creator AND top-notch collaborator 🥰 Had a blast designing these books!

Love cats? Mysteries? How about cats SOLVING mysteries?! Check out this Kickstarter from @amberunmasked.bsky.social, a really lovely human who I'm always proud to work with 😽

9 games that made me (my9games.com) P.T. would be on here if they had it!!

Been working on some hand lettering for a ~secret project~ and dang is it fun. Exhausting, but FUN.

Hey, #PortfolioDay. Been thinkin' bout chu. Lookin' for some comics lettering? Maybe a page design or two? A little manga retouch? HMU. I'm available whenever you need me, bb. Peace. 💼 haleyroselyon.com 💌 [email protected]

Snow day in St. Louis -- perfect for cozying up with kitty and my comp of Dream Theater: Parasomnia from @z2comics.bsky.social~

Comics people! What's your preferred way to show whispering/quiet talking? I tend toward small text in a regular-sized balloon, with added italics on a case-by-case basis. But sometimes I'll mess with opacity.

Jumpin' on the bandwagon to share my lettering stack for Thorn #9 (words by Josh of @oaktreecomics.bsky.social). Double-page spreads = double the fun!!

FEASTERS is on Kickstarter now!! Thanks to Noah for the opportunity to letter this rad story AND for letting me go all out with the frontmatter design!! This punk-rock aesthetic has been my favorite to experiment with 🖤

THE WITCHES OF PEPPERWOOD BAY VOL. 1 is out now!! Had such a blast working on this adorable story. Can't wait for Vol. 2~ (I got to do fun stuff like cute chapter titlesss)

Me when Noah announces some cool shit (that I just happen to have lettered 😘)

It's my 8th year as a letterer (!!) and I can't wait to work on more amazing art and stories! I'm Haley, and I've worked with Image, Oni Press, Legendary, Top Shelf, and more. Find my portfolio at haleyroselyon.com and reach me at [email protected]. #portfolioday #comicsletterer

Tron: Ares soundtrack got me out here feeling like I can somehow defy the cruelty of the universe

It's wild that we still don't have a commonly accepted comic script format. Basically every script I get is different from the next, with varying levels of technical or layout issues. (But hey, we're all out here doing our best.) Keep your letterer happy with these tips from @blambot.bsky.social 🥰

Fellow lovers of sapphic romance, it's the last day to back Bound by Words!! From the wonderful @atticdoormark.bsky.social and @boaillustration.bsky.social Already fully funded! Check it outttt www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a...

The double tails coming from the joined balloon at the top is sending me 😅

This #LettererAppreciationDay, I'm gonna grab some books off my shelf and shout out some rad-ass lettering! (thread 🧵)

Always a *treat* (😸) to work with Amber on these kitty tales. Also a treat to letter such gorgeous art by @lanedraws.bsky.social!

Just learned that meteorologically, autumn starts on Sept 1. Therefore, the only logical conclusion is that Sept 1 is scientifically the first day of Halloween.

It's giving me (2021)??

Just received my comp of Goat Magic from @oni-press.bsky.social!! Big thanks to @kagwheeler.bsky.social for the opportunity to do such satisfyingly naturalistic lettering ✨ GOAT MAGIC available Aug 19!!

Comics lettering tip! Burst balloons often work best with straight tails. They lend a directness that complements the sharp nature of a yell.
