With 23 years of continuous work as a letterer, and over 30 years of print/production experience, I’m now unable to find any new lettering work in comics. Please keep me in mind when staffing your creator-owned projects and please consider requesting me on your WFH projects 🙏

What if they opened their mouths and killer wasps came out but also the wasps were robots and the robots had nuclear bombs in them? What then?

Can't help thinking that this photo of Gorton & Denton Reform candidate Matt Goodwin with Steve Bannon - convicted fraudster, close friend & enabler of Jeffrey Epstein, promoter of violence to overturn a US election & admirer of Satan - has not had the coverage it deserves.

I think my brain has some kind of Mad Magazine/National Lampoon function that clicks on during dark, dismal news cycles and allows me to see the humor in them.

In huge positive news, the Australian government just ruled out handing the work of their country’s creatives to AI companies for free 🙌 They resisted the well-funded tech lobby & shut down proposals to upend copyright law. Other governments should do the same!

It's been a weird year for my drawing. It kind of peaked using a computer and I wasn't able to sustain or replicate the results I was getting. With all the Ai shenanigans going on at the minute, my response is to go back to basics and draw freehand with a brush pen. Drawing direct.

Here's a better idea: every data centre you build, you build enough renewable energy to power it, and you supply the waste heat from your cooling system to power homes and businesses nearby. Simple. Common sense. And fair.

@geengeenie and I treated ourselves to a pair of the cheap seats at Basildon Vue to see James Gunn’s interpretation of Superman…which was, predictably, brilliant. Everything from the casting to the music choices is perfect. Mister Terrific is just that and Krypto is the new Baby Groot.

Just a small wave at anyone caught up in the Unbound/Boundless mess that you can get advice from the Society of Authors on contracts if you're a member. It's ÂŁ32 a quarter, cheaper if you're over 65/under 35. Pretty much anyone at any stage of a writing career can join as an associate member.
