Nap Comix #379 I was a guest at London Comic Con Spring last weekend and I took the boys with me. Henry really likes comic cons these days so it's always a good time. He was obsessed with this 'Garlic' and followed it around for ages, haha!

John Allison is one of my favourite comic creators. He's also incredibly generous in that he allows us to read his work for free, updating 3 days a week, on
badmachinery.com
Checking that website is, honestly, the first thing I do on those sacred days. (1/2)

I'm gonna be buying some flights soon and I get real anxious about Big Purchases. Am I alone in thinking Big Purchases must always be made via laptop and not a phone? A phone feels too flimsy to make such a Big Important Purchase. Maybe I am just an anxious idiot. I am an axious idiot.

I submitted 'Nap Comix' to the Eisners! Apparently my imposter syndrome is much less powerful than the fact that I had written 'APPLY FOR EISNERS' on my whiteboard and therefore am trapped into doing it!!

So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.

I’m all for this change. But it should have been an open call to the community, initiated months ago. Not 6 days prior. HCD is important to me. I take pains to plan in advance and ensure I have childcare, that I’m not on deadline, and that I can bring together local artists to draw in community.

The Cartoonist Cooperative have decided that Hourly Comics Day should be on the 8th Feb rather than the 1st to better observe the start of the USA's Black History Month. This is super cool and I'm all for it, BUT... (1/?)
