I think Toxic Avenger Comics #3 was the best thing I wrote this year. It's got all the violent, semi-serious nonsense that drew me to this title in the first place—with new characters like Fungirl and SENTIAC, the environmental murder-bot. Art by the fabulous @tristanwright.bsky.social

Only in the latest Toxic Crusaders comic will you find a half-human, half-dog mutant going on a date with a furry

Classy cartooning 101: Send your colorist a convenient guide that clearly communicates what oozing projectiles are ketchup, and what’s snot. Toxic Crusaders #3, in shops tomorrow.

This issue really, truly clicked for me, and I think as great as Toxic Avenger was (and this book's previous two issues as well), @mattbors.bsky.social and @tristanwright.bsky.social have the potential for something even more bonkers, relevant, gross, funny, human, absurd, etc. Also, Junkyard!

‘Toxic Crusaders’ #3 is a great issue with story and horrors to spare @mattbors.bsky.social @ahoycomicmags.bsky.social @tristanwright.bsky.social #comicbooks #comics #NCBD Read @chriscoplan.bsky.social's review:

I had a good year professionally, largely defined by writing Toxic Avenger books. I'm in a nice spot working with incredible collaborators in a frustrating industry. Got a couple things coming in 2026--my newsletter is the best place to follow what I'm doing. tinyurl.com/BorsNews

Turn on the TV. Doesn’t matter what channel.

Today is the last day to pre-order TOXIC AVENGER COMICS #6 with your comic shop. It's the beginning of a big new arc sending Toxie to Washington, DC, where he will face Doctor Planet and the Planet Teens—new environmentally-themed heroes working for an insane president.

Jesse Moynihan's "Jesus 2" is online! Only till the 12th, though. I had the pleasure of screening this last November, and it's a banger.

Procreate Dreams finally got that peanut butter export buddy

Jordan Crane walks us through his entire working process, from sketches to printed book, in this 2+ hour conversation. Crane is warm and open in discussing his work, this video will be of value to anyone who makes comics. youtu.be/EtM0ZGQAJ_c?...

A #Predator pitch for @darkhorse.com back in the 90s with writer @corymacrae.bsky.social. I drew the piece and then Colin MacNeil did his colour magic. Sadly, Dark Horse passed. After Prey and Killer of Killers, and now Badlands we still feel this re-imaging of Perseus and the Minotaur has legs.
