I've had a very nice chat with @ernestopriego.com (senior lecturer in comics studies at @City St George's, University of London) about our work on "Strange fruit, Abel's song" @EditionsDupuis www.comicsgrid.com/article/id/2...

For many years, the Vancouver Whitecaps were viewed as a small-market club that would never do anything substantial. So, what’s changed? #VWFC thethirdsub.ca/2025/12/04/t...

What sort of odds can I get on Rayan Elloumi scoring his first MLS goal off the bench? #vwfc

I have drawn a mini-comic, as an introduction to my Moebius book at @upmississippi.bsky.social , which you can find here: www.upress.state.ms.us/Books/M/Moeb... Digital version, but the original is a cute A6 booklet, because who doesn't like fanzines? [1/2]

The Whitecaps are just the best

Delighted to have this opportunity to write about autobio comics for @faberbooks.bsky.social

Not what you want ot wake up to. Big fire on Hastings Street.

This was a real joy to write! If you ask me again next month I might choose 3 others but these comics have definitely stuck with me.

This one's lovely, especially if you're a fan of classic Brit humour comic NUTTY. (And a shout-out to @lewstringer.bsky.social for some expert artist identification!)

@wilkinscaleb.bsky.social Was Blackmon always number 33?

Baguettes!

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

Can we possibly revive the Situationist International? The times seem appropriate.

@wilkinscaleb.bsky.social I could be doing something useful, but instead I’m watching 90 minutes of bumpf before the Las Vegas Grand Prix

Looking forward to Comics Forum 2024! ernestopriego.com/2024/11/11/m... It's probably the wrong tag but hey #ComicsForum24 #ComicsStudies

Not sure I understand the starter pack thingie but it seems nice…

I’m currently perusing Taiyo Matsumoto’s Tokyo These Days (in translation obvs) and thinking about the joys of manga. What about you?

Suddenly followed by a lot of comics people, so I should probably post more about comics and less about my dog.

I did a thing for the conversation.

What is your favourite F1 dog? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRM_P207

Gus and his harem of love pillows.

Before/After

After I complained to the dog groomer about their website not saying they didn’t take dogs over 50 pounds, they asked for a picture.
