The federal government is waging a censorship campaign, an all-out war on the First Amendment, on a scale without precedent in living memory. @andycraig.bsky.social

We just turned 4! 🥳 🎂 🎉

Spent all of Saturday running back and forth between the set of DEAD FORMAT and the store (where we had RJ Roles signing) so there was no time to write a Sunday newsletter. So, this is a good week to catch up on previous issues you may have missed: briankeene.substack.com

Love this!

helmet sketches, I kinda forgot that my whole reason for designing a muzzle was to nail down the look and then design a helmet to go with it. I think the muzzle was supposed to go quickly or something idk #art #mechsploitation #sketches

So cool

Human artists! Use one piece to convince people to follow you

I’ve been invisible for the past few weeks cause I’m working on my the release of my #indiecomic, Mercy’s Eclipse! I’m really excited and I wanted to share this panel which is heavy with foreshadowing and double meaning!

Love!

I have two sides of art 🤭 Show me yours!

If an enormous international clock of creators telling stories about cryptids through the lens of eco-horror sounds like your jam, we have a few hours left to fund the book. www.kickstarter.com/projects/pau...

We're into the final hours of BUMP IN THE NIGHT, and quite a bit from our target. It's time for a big ol' reminder thread of who's who and what's what. www.kickstarter.com/projects/pau...

Been a minute! Finishing up the first issue of my upcoming comic, Mercy’s Eclipse! That said, for our anniversary, buddy grabbed me this amazing @elfquest.bsky.social tote! He knows me so well! Thank you Wendy & Richard Pini & the Elfquest crew for all you do and the endless inspiration!

Finished the inks on my first #indiecomic and now adding colors. #scifi #digitalart #MercysEclipse

this guy is out here proudly being a eugenicist freak while people at mainstream and "respectable publications" make excuses for him or even muse about whether he has a "few good points"

Happy #nationalsuperheroday Hitomyris is the one of the three main characters from my upcoming sci-fi comic, Mercy’s Eclipse. Being the last of her kind is hard enough, but now she learns she may be the key to turn the tide of a war that may impact the galaxy!

It's #NationalSuperheroDay! Support indie heroes like Liberty from my own American Dreams! (And we have a KS going on for the next issue, just saying: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ame... )

WISCONSIN: The chair of the elections commission, a lawyer, breaks down what actually happened using the actual complaint. Arresting judges like this is a wild fast-forwarding of our plunge into authoritarianism.

If y’all artists ever need a quick pick-me-up, remember that your art is probably saved in someone’s camera roll right now

Going in and checking out #Andor!

What we’ve launched today is the first step for how we’re going to evolve verification. The initial set of trusted verifiers includes news orgs who’ve agreed to take on the task of verification for their journalists. In the future, this set will expand, as well as how apps can choose to use them.

Graphitti Designs 80s/90s HC are catnip to me. I would have a lot of them but have a few of them. These Elric HCs are lovely oversized books with signature pages. Never read an Elric novel. Love Elric comics though. Might have to do something about that at some point.

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

With the Battles of Lexington, Concord, and Menotomy—plus related smaller skirmishes—the American Revolutionary War began 250 years ago today. How does the 'shot heard round the world' sound today? www.thebulwark.com/p/lexington-...

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Hip Hop variant cover of the day… Gamora tribute to Mase Art from Elizabeth Torque #comicsky #hiphop #musicsky #variantcover #marvel

Loooove! Gamora looks so good here! 😍😍

As an aside, I’m on @duolingoverde.bsky.social working on Japanese! 😁

“No... What I told you is that the path is safe, if you don’t TOUCH anything!” Finally got this explorer painting done. I've never actually shown Mira acting as a guide. Of course, it helps if they LISTEN do the guide...

An absolute must-read from @stevevladeck.bsky.social this morning: “Just before 1:00 a.m., the justices (aggressively) stepped back into the Alien Enemy Act litigation—in a decision suggesting that a majority understands that these are no longer normal circumstances.”

A fun thing about the trump team’s obsession with DEI & political correctness is that during the 2020 campaign, Trump aide Katrina Pierson told other senior staff to stop putting “African American” in their comms and do “black” instead b/c not every Black person is African American, & they listened

My name is Ben and I have autism. I’m not less than anyone else I just see the world differently. Lately I’ve been working on losing weight by walking. I walked 5 miles yesterday. It’s also helps with my confidence and I can enjoy the outdoors and the scenery.

My favorite Superman memory was when I was in Ohio and decided to visit the house where he was born. The current owners are lovely and happy to give you a tour of Jerry Siegel’s old home. Awe inspiring to stand in the attic where an alien immigrant that would change the world was conceived.

Ha! Thats my girl!
