Whelp I know who else would be dead on Alien Earth because I got back home from Memphis this weekend to sink full of dirty dishes and a giant silverfish scuttled out AT me and now I’m leaving and never coming back

That’s a wrap! Signed a ton of Emma Frost and Borderlands and ended with some (extremely strong) drinks and oxtail with grits by the Mississippi River. Thank you @memphiscomicexpo.bsky.social for a great weekend!

Just one more day to apply to work with our rockstar editorial team at BOOM! We’re looking for an awesome assistant editor who is great at balancing multiple projects and cares about good storytelling! bit.ly/42ooXLq #comicjobs

Day 2 @memphiscomicexpo.bsky.social thanks for the warm welcome Day 1 and all the Emma Frost and Borderlands love!

In Memphis, got my BBQ!

Boarded my tiny flight to Memphis. It’s been a cursed week so checking safety instructions just in case 👀

Got my shots 💉😷

I know it’s just rumors flying around but we love it for a reason

Wow, finally got my blood pressure down to something my doc isn’t going to yell about, so I think I’ll open this can of Pringles to celebrate!

Setting up one of those right now for myself… #impostersyndrome

Can't believe we're rooting for David Zaslav time makes monsters of us all

“I am the greatest!”

This has been a good creative year for me, working with some of the best!

Credit to @andreadevito.bsky.social for devising that scene!

#memphis Sep 13-14 I fully expect to get the meat sweats from all the BBQ I’m hoping for there! @memphiscomicexpo.bsky.social

Whoop!!

Can’t. Sleep.

Reposting for the evening crowd

🤬🤬🤬

Never gets old seeing something you wrote on the shelf! 🙌 #midtowncomics #timessquare #nyc

😂

Quite possibly the most beautiful library open to the public. If you go to @baltimorecomiccon.bsky.social you must visit #peabodylibrary

Good morning. Let’s get to work ☕️

FOC for Emma #4 is TODAY 8/25 call your store!!

Exceeding all my expectations so far 🙌

Artists working in mainstream USA comics: Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, etc. all expect art to these dimensions. I'm seeing more and more disregard for the standard specs, and it affects everyone's deadlines to have production try and wrestle your art into proper proportions.

Lettering by @airy.bsky.social Colors by Antonia Fabela.

That feeling when you have crushing deadlines but you also MUST see Shin Godzilla…

“Down with fascism!” #ow

I just do what she tells me 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t think I ever met a potato pancake I didn’t like.

Let’s GO! #battlefordc

I’ve been so busy with deadlines I forgot about these from #SDCC. Should I open them?! #labubu #popmart #labubumacaron #labubuhaveaseat

On the run, Emma heads to the Hong Kong Hellfire Club to see if Liu Wo-Han is friend or foe… Emma Frost White Queen #3 out Aug 27. Written by me, line art Andrea Di Vito, colors Antonio Fabela, letters Andrea Maher.

Just gonna leave this here for y’all…

Looks like another month of Happy Meals for me…

Ready for this!

On Aug 5 the FBI released its report on crime in the United States for 2024 showing the lowest rate of violent crime since 1969. Not only did the report reveal that overall crime was down substantially in 2024, but crime fell in 2024 across every category and population group.

Good vibes #wellsborocomiccon

Having a very nice time at #WellsboroComicCon. I’m telling you, these one day shows are the best!

Road trip stop in Williamsport for pierogis and beer #wellsborocomiccon

I got dragged to the gym so I immediately got a root beer float afterwards to even things out…

Free yes FREE one day family friendly comic con this Sat 8/6 in the quaint town of Wellsboro, PA. Look at this lineup of creators! @stephwilliams.bsky.social @sorahsuhng.com #comiccon

So I stopped at Costco for a $4.99 rotisserie chicken for dinner but they were completely cleaned OUT! The guy said eight more were about to come out of the oven so a small mob formed around me but I wrote 30 issues of Red Sonja and I’ll be DAMNED if I left empty handed #triumphant
