Aww, glorious stuff. The... I think the correct word is 'grotty' english experience for two bright-eyed young US punk rock teens circa 1981. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uwP...

Poster for the next Gosh/Broken Frontier Drink and Draw wingding on the 20th of this fair month. See you there, I hope...

FT headline: " Wealthy Dubai residents race back to UAE to avoid tax bills. Some risk spending too few days in the emirate and too many in the UK.." Thoughts and prayers, everybody, thoughts and prayers...

Picked up Bog People from my local library on Friday and powered through it over the weekend. Superb anthology of #folkhorror - no filler, all great tales. Highly recommended. www.awesomebooks.com/book/9781784...

This Friday! The Gosh/Broken Frontier Drink and Draw with special guests Skai Campbell and the mighty Dix!

Violence!

2 x Carol Swain is a perfect intro to the elusive, intriguing work of Carol Swain. A road trip reveals troubling truths, and the spectre of war hangs uneasily over a small town. With new introductions and an interview with the artist. Available to order here: darkandgolden.bigcartel.com

Hard to place exactly what vibes I'm giving in that photo. I think it's the face I have when I've just answered the door and suspect that the caller is just about to tell me the good news about our lord Jesus Christ.

This amused me greatly 😂 especially the fox painting 😂 Thank yoooo @cheekybudgie.bsky.social

Coming soon! The first Gosh/Broken Frontier Drink and Draw of 2026 with Rein Lee and Matthew Dooley. Sharpen your pencils, wits, and whatever...

Nice to see cartoonists for Gaza picking up an award. Well done Rachael and Krent Here's hoping it doesn't need any sequels...

Review of Bog People from The Morning Star. Does this mean I'm part of the solution?

Missed that the Grauniad reviewed Bog People, favourably, back in November. Don't mention me though. The bastards.

George is largely unmoved by the plight of a fictional cat.

In a new blog post, I review the amazing work of J. Webster Sharp. https://comics.edpinsent.com/2025/12/19/space-chameleons-and-other-chimeras-of-the-mind/ "The reader is drawn into a vortex by the hypnotic flow of images, each successive tableau more outrageous than the last"

Myself and Mr Hine would like it known that we bear no ill will towards ms Frances Crawford and her TITLE-STEALING debut novel, and wish it well when it debuts next year. I mean hers is just A bad bad place, ours is THE bad bad place, so it's fine. It's all fine.... (stares daggers at the screen.)

Aaaargh jesus we're buggered.

Anyone wondering whether to pull the trigger on Clown In A Cornfield on Prime and questioning whether it fulfils its title remit can rest assured that, as of 50 minutes in, it has delivered clowns and cornfields aplenty.

Coming soon! Sharpen yr pencils! My poster for the last Drink and Draw of the year! Be there!

Welcome to my unpleasant world! Tabling at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social

The new one reviewed by Andy Oliver of Broken Frontier in time for @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social www.brokenfrontier.com/magical/

Like it says, I'll be in Harrogate this weekend for @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social 2025. I've got half a table, (C20a) between Sam Hart and Sean Azzopardi's Phatprint Comics, where I'll be flogging the new comic 'MAGICAL' amongst other things. Hope to see you there.

It's here! ' Magical' is a (cough) delightful A5 fairytale comic out just in time to ruin your Christmas. It'll be at Thought Bubble and Gosh and the Cartoon Museum soonish.

It's out! And it is a thing of disconcerting beauty. Should be available from all proper book emporiums today. Read and enjoy and spread the word.

Looking forward to tabling at the Goblin Market this Sunday. Hope to see you there.

Well, the Thought Bubble table maps have been revealed and i've graduated from Bubbleboy to Redshirts, happily between Sean Azzopardi and Sam Hart.

Work in progress. Page from 'Magical', a bit of a fairytale. Which will, gawd willing, be ready in time for Thought Bubble, possibly Winchester...

My poster for the Halloween Drink and Draw at Gosh/the Royal George on the 31st. With guests zombie Zen K and spooky Shane Melisse. I guess that makes me macabre Mark Stafford. Be there! And, uh.... Boo!

Random cool photos i found going through my cameras memory card..

Now extended due to popular demand! (Possibly.) Our gallery show at the All Good Bookshop on Turnpike lane now runs until 10th October. Go see!

On the 18th I'll be signing Black Forests at Gosh alongside Peter Hogan and Glenn Fabry. Because it's spooky season.

Random Lakes photo selection.

Through the door today. My copy of 'Bog People.' Looking rather handsome...

Good times at Markfield Road Festival. Much art was arted.

Late addition to the Uneasy art show at the All Good bookshop on Turnpike Lane, a pricey giclee print of my 'Doomstrolling' strip, in which I take the much missed Yoshi dog for a somewhat fanciful walk around the streets of Seven Sisters.

This weekend, starting Friday eve is The Markfield Road Festival, a fantastic creative wingding just around the corner from my place. there's live music and art and a bit of carnival and discussions, and best of all is Gaunson Studios throwing open their doors to let us wander around and gawk. Come!

Just out- All Is Not Well, an anthology of comics about caregiving, homelessness and disability edited by Jonathan Clode and Ryan Prout of Cardiff University. My bit, 'Loss of Habitat' is in there, alongside work by Ilya and Bern Campbell and Brick and others giving inky voice to real experience.

Are you over 16, based in the UK and make comics - or intend to make comics - for public consumption. If so, the UK Comics Creator Survey has some questions for you. All responses to the survey are completely anonymous and will help advocate for better support and more funding in comics.

Coverage of the show we haven't put up yet!

So glad I share a birthday with this lovely lady it saves so much effort on my part. Cheers everybody!

Post Goshfest cat appreciation with Sean and Alex and Fred and George.
