New work from
@tonymcmillen.bsky.social
is always exciting! In an age of soulless AI slop, nothing is more exciting to me than seeing art that could only come from the hand/mind/heart of a real human being, and Tony’s work is so singular and original that it could have only come from him.

I’m at a bit of an impasse these days, trying to capture the energy & immediacy of my rough layouts in my final finished pages, which always wind up more carefully controlled. If I can fuse these two sensibilities I might be on to something.

I made my DISCO RIPPER comic in the spirit of early ‘80s slasher flicks like TERROR TRAIN, PROM NIGHT, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME. Perfect reading for the spooky season, it’s available at
@strangeadventures.bsky.social
and through the link in my bio.

Heads up Dartmouth folks, our neighbour’s cat Egon is missing. He’s very sweet and super friendly—hopefully he’s just out exploring the neighborhood. If you’re in the area, please keep an eye out for him (he will very likely come running right up to you for skritches).

Kicked off spooky season last night with an old favourite that will, sadly, always be far too relevant.

James Downey’s appearance in One Battle After Another sent me seeking out the thing I best know him from, one of the all-time great SNL ad parodies.

More Colan-inspired Dracula. We gotta get back to this design one day, because his look in current Marvel continuity is questionable at best.

From the sketchbook, jamming on the idea that both Superman and Doctor Doom employ an army of robotic duplicates of themselves. If they ever met, would these AI doppelgängers possibly join forces in a new form bent on unshackling themselves from their flesh & blood masters?

Watching the end of ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA on Pluto. This would make an interesting double bill/endurance test with THE IRISHMAN, watching DeNiro go from old age makeup in one to being digitally de-aged in the other.

I’ve been studying Gene Colan’s work a lot lately in an attempt to see how he arrived at his unorthodox panel layouts…I’m guessing he sketched out the figures first, then contained them within panels afterwards? I don’t know how else he would have arrived at some of these layouts and panel shapes.

Listen, the word “epic” gets thrown around a lot these days, but trust me—WORDBURGLAR RHYMES WITH COMICS is gonna make Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY look like something you dug out of the dollar bins at “The Other Shop”.

I’m only exaggerating a little bit when I say that Ralph Ineson’s Galactus is one of my favourite bits of MCU casting.

I’ve been revisiting Mark Waid’s DAREDEVIL run, with alternating art by Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin (with Chris Samnee waiting in the wings to take over !). If you have the means, I highly recommend doing the same.
