Happy new year and lang may yer lum reek! Oor Wullie is back on his bucket on this Dudley D Watkins grail page for Jonny @jonnycannon.bsky.social from episode 318 of the book club.

Happy new year! The final part of my wee series on Alex Toth is now up on my free Substack: cannonhillcomics.substack.com/p/toths-22-p...

So here’s what 10 years of rejections looked like — 2025: 51 2024: 52 2023: 79 2022: 70 2021: 72 2020: 56 2019: 31 2018: 39 2017: 33 2016: 42 That makes for 525 rejections across a decade. But I also had 55 stories accepted across the same span. So remember — Never give up! Never surrender!

I finally got hold of Toth "One for the Road". I knew it was great from the Cartoonist Kayfabe review, the pages I've seen online and the issues of Hot Rod Cartoons and Dragtoons that I've got, but it's beyond anything I'd expected. It's imperious work by a master.

The Broons take a winter break in this Dudley D Watkins grail page chosen by Jonny @jonnycannon.bsky.social in episode 318 of the book club.

A few pieces of work by Alex Toth that are just sublime in various ways.

This Noel Sickles strip is one of my favorites. Always on the wall near my art table.

Merry Christmas! Here's the latest edition of my free comics newsletter, continuing 22 panels by Alex Toth that blow my mind: cannonhillcomics.substack.com/p/toths-22-p...

Critical to know that McCay drew in black and white and gave his engraver, Mr. Hunt, loose instructions. The art is McCay; the glorious color, the little-known Hunt.

I'm a sucker for bisecting panels diagonally, and I love the way he's got the baddies framed by the tree branches. And of course, there's the ace texturing on all the foliage. I've come to the conclusion that silver birches are the best trees for comics - they even look drawn in real life!

The latest edition of my free comics newsletter co tintues my wee series on 22 panels by Alex Toth that blow my mind. Feel free to post suggestions below! cannonhillcomics.substack.com/p/toths-22-p...

Some strange choices on this 1949 cover by Sheldon Moldoff, but I dig it nonetheless.

I'm a sucker for surrealism and cutaway diagrams, so this Charles Burns cover from 1984 just spreads my jam. In other news: just say no.

Treat the people you love (or even hate) to some of my comics this Christmas!

Toth (1952) was so versatile. His continued experimentation just pushed the form. He was in his early to mid 20s when he drew this.

The latest edition of my free comics newsletter looks at some work by Mort Meskin and a wee bit of Alex Toth. open.substack.com/pub/cannonhi...

This is a jaw dropping collection that completely changed the way I make comics. It's some of Toth's best work. The Monument, for example, is perfect.

Damn Mort Meskin was good. (Scan originally posted by Ed maslow on FB)

@steveningramart.bsky.social has made another comic and it looks great: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ste... This has 16 hours to go on @kickstarter.com and I recommend backing it!

I was very, very lucky to pock up the original issues very cheaply on ebay a couple of years back. It's stunning work

Julio Schiaffino was great.

For DROME, I wanted a character who was mainly defined by color instead of linework. When I started the book, I wasn’t confident I’d be able to do it with my coloring skills, but hoped I would get good enough by the time the character made their appearance at the end of chapter two.
