Calling all comic artists! Applications for CAMP 2026 are now open! Visit www.comicartsmaineportland.com/exhibiting to apply!

I ended up deciding not to exhibit at Flamecon anymore because there's so few comic artists there so it didn't seem like the right show for me. Which is fine -- not every show needs to be for me. But personally, I'd love to see a % of tables reserved for people making & selling comics!

The saga of the siblinghood of the travelling sash comes to a close!! It's on its way home to @isabellarotman.bsky.social, without whom Abortion Pill Zine wouldn't have happened. I'm lucky to have Izzy and @marniegalloway.bsky.social as co-authors and even luckier to call them my pals!

So many events 😵‍💫 See you there??

Oh no oh no

1/2 I have been with Silver Sprocket since 2017. I will likely have more to say about it when I have formulated my thoughts well, but for now: I have been in conversation with many sprocket artists (not all -- there's a lot of them) and the majority of us want sprocket to survive and succeed.

COMING SOON!!!

Seeking concept art for setting to include in a lecture on setting in Comics! Anyone got any they are willing to share, or know of good resources?

A little handout I made about the different parts of a comic and what they are called for some school visits I did recently. Handout is available at the end of this thread! Feel free to print and use (for educational purposes only!)

Christmas prep is kicking my ass this year. I blame all my friends who had kids.

Tabling pet peeve: when people stand in front of your table with their friends and ask their friends questions about your work as if you are not there.

I think another annoying but less frequently discussed aspect of book bannings is the undue administrative burden it’s meant to create. It’s supposed to make being a teacher or a librarian feel like more trouble than it’s worth. It’s in line with how often teaching salaries are barely livable.

Does anyone know how to ink beards without them looking too solid?
