For some reason I wanted to draw a Hobbit today I have never been into Tolkien I liked the Hobbit 40 plus years ago well enough never read the others and only seen bits of the films not my thing sorry! I think it’s all those Elves they seem like middle class pricks. Anyway I remember spiders

Very excited that I'll be at the inaugural @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social at Copeland Park, Peckham with my fellow @mindlessones.bsky.social Sat & Sun 11-12 July. I'll have the complete first chapter of LOS, my comic about William Blake, which somewhat conveniently finishes in Peckham arc-london.uk

Elric…. Must admit I know next to nothing about the character but I am pleased with how this one came out I had several attempts where I couldn’t quite settle on how he looks there were so many different versions online. Should really read some Moorcock at some point.

Reminder: it is still *illegal* in the UK to rip a legally bought and owned CD to MP3 on your computer. But Google will likely convince the UK govt that every creative endeavour should be available for it to remix and regurgitate, entirely for free. One rule for the public; another for megacorps…

I’ve drawn a quick comic about #wimbledon2026, tennis storylines, and live-action sports anime: tomhumberstone.com/wimbledon2026

A brilliant trio of comics (fun, creepy and a fair bit in between) from @frasergeesin.bsky.social including a collaboration with the always excellent @andrewhickey.500songs.com

I really like Virginia Woolf's Orlando's and it looks like Jules Scheele's has done a great adaptation of it. Also very good newsletter to be reading with my breakfast coffee

the DOJ's counterterrorism messaging named "Antifa", "Anarchists" and "pro-trans extremists" as major threats. nearly a third of the 22 Prairieland defendants are trans. Autumn Hill and Meagan Morris, sentenced to 50 yrs each, have been held in men's prisons, even denied hormones in the last year.

Got the go ahead to post the whole thing🙂

my latest @lwlies.com letter is about why i still love renting dvds – featuring my beloved cinema paradiso postal subscription service, the importance of controlled chaos when choosing what to watch, and my backstory as a teen video shop employee. read and subscribe! mailchi.mp/tcolondon/th...

Footering with ways to colour the really ink heavy pages of Stramash these pages were drawn straight down in ink and they were my attempt at Peter Howson style figures and German expressionism rather than proper drawing

I love this book and I hope we get another like it from Dan.

I haven't read the comic this one is about, but this was still a really clear and very fun read. I love a good mixed feelings essay and this more than fits the bill. Lots of nice bits to chew on.

I will be exhibiting with @mindlessones.bsky.social at this free festival next month. I think it’s going to be a very, very good weekend. A total mega-priv to be invited. You are invited too.

hello everyone i am working on a big piece for guardian about the CURRENT STATE OF MUSIC ZINES!!!! i have many already but i want to get as many as poss from FAR AND WIDE in uk so pls either fill out the form here or email me directly (email on my website in bio) www.theguardian.com/music/2026/j...

I've added some functionality to my website that supports reading certain comics in their entirety online - with panels adjusting to desktop/mobile viewing! Here's my comic about AI art, automation, and the misunderstood history of the Luddites: tomhumberstone.com/luddites Read it for free!

This is a very good manifesto for, uh, basically everyone who works in an art form that also has a commercially pressured market attached to it. Comics I am looking at you in particular, but also other things.

an old drawing, 2024 or something

Saw that Limmy was live so I went to check in to see what his reaction was to Keir Starmer resigning

I'm a bit late for the solstice but this is the perfect way to start your day - or end your day. Grab 10 mins and have a listen. 💚 (This was my Yorkshire solstice)

@julesscheele.bsky.social has adapted and slightly reframed Virginia Woolf's Orlando and we think it's excellent. "Open-minded readers will enjoy the party". @averyhill.bsky.social theslingsandarrows.com/orlando/

This is what they meant by Sensible, Moderate, Practical politics and “ending the culture war”: giving the worst people in Britain what they want at the public’s expense, and not even benefitting from it. They behave like this because they are horrible, self-absorbed people.
