Reading Essential Fantastic 4 volume 3, and despite the Kirby art I'm finding it a dull trudge. Seems to be my experience with all Marvels of the era other than Ditko Spidey. I assume a large part of this is due to me not being a child. Which is fair enough. It's no Metamorpho!!!

[reading your palm] wow dude your vibe sucks!

The leopards eating my face enshittified my unserious nothingburger with the dildo of consequences!!!

mandelson and prince andrew weren't arrested, they were taken away to the "watchmen island" to "work on the psychic squid"

My new game is Encroacher: Snakes It's a snake-tossing cryptic adventure coming 2026!

and of course I've got a poster for the new game!

Me talking about my silly little book projects with my friends who are doing their best to keep their month-olds alive.

Whenever the last Eva movies came out I read reviews and heard endless discourse about it being a reaction to its own cultural impact and fan reaction etc, and that’s tvtropes shit motherfucker I don’t want it, give me unequivocal impact of the new and the ineluctable logic of dream haaa

Computers are basically annoying as fuck little boxes full of shit

back on my Scottish Bullshit (listening to a post-rock compilation from 2006)

*Behind the mask* Tell just one person that you liked this newsletter. Word of mouth, more than any other form of promotion, is how creative works get noticed and sustain themselves. Thank you very much for reading.

sketch vs final

zero interest in any new Evangelion not by thon silly billy, Anno. Hopefully, a new series can be filed alongside all the FLCL stuff from a few years ago as stuff I can comfortably ignore

I get it!

Wrap Party Invite from the earlier BBC (not the Hammer movie!) TV serialisation of "Quatermass And The Pit". If you're British, you'll be agog that this was drawn by Tony Hart (of BBC "Vision On" and "Take Hart" fame...which gave us Morph and Nick Park stop-motion, before Aardman was even a thing.)

my energy account is over £500 in credit but apparently I haven't hit my 'target balance' yet so the monthly bill is still outlandish, and they won't give me that money back as they 'reassessed' my bill too recently. It's all very confusing, being alive

This feels very relevant to Scottish comic creators selling internationally - a survey to explore the possibility of setting up a Cultural Export Service scotland.britishcouncil.org/Cultural-Exp...

got hardly any sleep as usual, plus scaffolding men have been hammering away and listening to techno all morning, which isn't as excitingly Tetsuo-ish as it sounds

Why would you invade me in Elden Ring? I am 44!

Happy Birthday to the great James Hong of Minneapolis!!

Back Again with the 129th issue of this project. This time with the beginning of 1992 This is Newtype for January 1992 (208 images) Link at the end.

Too tired to do anything productive with my sunday night, should probably just watch Seven Samurai and try not to fall asleep while reading subtitles

Just a reminder that two volumes of my all-ages comic Cindy and Biscuit are available from all discerning book and comic retailers. If you already have them then please spread the word - personal recommendations are the best currency!

The "Tories in 1997" energy from this is overwhelming.

every time I switch the PS4 on, there's a new No Man's Sky update. Having not played it in probably over a year I assume it's completely unrecognisable by now. Last time I played it it was already a different game to the delightfully boring and ambient one I loved when I first bought it.

heard sectarian lad-chanting while walking through the station, then 5 minutes later had to get out of the way of a zooming police car, I wonder if the two things could possibly be connected

drew this a year ago, apparently. #content

I wrote for @brightwalldarkroom.com about the bloody delirium of Peckinpah’s cinematic self-crucifixtion (and the realest romance ever made), BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA. (With beautiful artwork by Tony Stella) www.brightwalldarkroom.com/2018/12/21/p...

played some Street Fighter 6 with a pal last night, and it remains fun but too BUSY. It's not as fun as an intense game of Nidhogg, which always has us hooting and hollering like dickheads

It's up it's up! Put all my heart and sweat blood and tears into this book, please support it!

i'm posting this panel from the violent yakuza manga Tyranno by itself, because i'm sure you'll have use for it in your life

I like that in the winter olympics a man fucked up at skiing, had a frustrated lie down, then wandered into the woods for some peace and quiet, then was annoyed when the media and police came and bothered him there

if you tip up to £8 on Chuffed. org it gives you the non-committal smile emoji, but more than that and it gives you the sarcastic "you fucking idiot haha" smile emoji, and I don't think emojis are helping in general, given the seriousness of most of the reasons to be donating money

🚨In Ramadan food prices have skyrocketed💔 My child &I are collapsing😔 hunger is consuming our bodies Ican’t even afford asingle loaf of bread to stop my son’s crying🥖😭 We are starving to death❤️‍🩹 Your support is our only lifeline to stay alive🫂 Please help us now🙏🥺 chuffed.org/project/161145 ✅️Molly

An O.M.A.C to end the drawing day

I don't agree in the idea of 'selling out' unless the person has previously said things related to having integrity that they then betray. But I do think in think in the 2020s, any celebrity/actor/musician advertising a product is a soul-free weasel

Darkseid be with you

You can post "it sucks when people shit on the floor" and within a couple hours a floor shitter will show up from the Discover feed to defend it

Hey guys I'm going to be hosting a comics bundle for Palestine. If you have comics on Itchio or wouldnt mind adding them to that site please fill out my intrest form forms.gle/GF6Z6fdgHmsj...

Look what just turned up for #SelfPromoSaturday: my latest #ttRPG hot off the press!

pal's coming round, better put my awful skronky detuned guitar away in case he tries to tune it

Between takes on set Peter Cushing painted wargaming figures. He'd invite female costars to join him if they were new, looked lonely or being perved on by others on set. "Scream Queen" Ingrid Pitt proudly showed me the little figures they painted together once. Kept them all her life #nerdlings

dog upstairs started going pure radge when it reached the guitar squalls in the middle of 'Complicated Game' by XTC from my shitty bluetooth speaker, it must contain the magic frequencies

I prefer the original 60’s squat Hulk which is what I was aiming for but I think his face is a bit too long

See if you can spot the odd one out in this 1988 ITV promo.
