Sorry to miss your New Year’s party I am unfortunately trapped under an uncharacteristically pleasant Glinda and lost feeling in my legs several hours ago

Idly mused that perhaps 2026 would be the year I buy a banjo so I checked the music store and bad news, they had a used banjo but it's been sold but in even badder news

me at 25: I swear if they card me I’m gonna scream me at 35: if they card me I’m gonna pretend I don’t have it so I “have to” go home and eat a whole tray of costco jalapeno poppers

Here it is, your #ArtVsArtist 2025. I feel like I did a lot this year, enough to warrant two of these grids, and there’s more, but here are some highlights. I got sculpture, analog and digital, I got illustrations, comics, trading cards, I did an album cover, even short animation… WHEW! On to 2026!

For 2026, my Patreon backers will be getting a 100+ character LOTR paper figure set. If you want to get 'em by mail (I'll be sending out a batch each month for the whole year), be sure to sign up at the "Captain" tier by tonight to get January's batch! www.patreon.com/c/chrisschwe...

This was not, in fact, a dull year, and I suspect I may have jinxed my entire 2026, but once I got the idea in my head I had to draw it (Happy New Planner Day!)

Even I have to admit I did some pretty okay stuff this year.

Honestly my favourite work from 2025, and it was a random MS paint challenge #pixelart

remember to start fresh and clean

At the risk of sounding materialistic I bought a larger television and while things don't bring happiness this thing does bring me happiness

⭐️ Who's ready for the new year? ⭐️

All jokes aside dont lie to your fiancée about finances. Get then into warhammer so you go into debt together

I'm not the Scrub Daddy - I'm the daddy who scrubbed up

Although it had more full-body Muppet shots than I like and some pretty bad/unnecessary green screen, Michael Caine did make me cry. A nice way to end my movie-watching 2025.

Open up this picture fully. Then look at the surface of Mars. Then look up to the top right. Spot Mars' moon Phobos high in the sky. Then notice the bright spot beside Phobos. That's Earth.

Happy 79th birthday, Patti Smith.

I always get mixed up which one is an intrepid boy reporter and which one is the most fantastically built and incredibly uninhibited woman alive.

Kids in snowsuits look so warm. Why can’t we normalize adult snowsuits for everyday?!

Tried explaining We3 to the kid and started crying in the manga/comics aisle of the Chapters

Got a Becorn Calendar because I deserve wonderful things in 2026 www.youtube.com/@davidmbird/...

Having to go to the beach is terrifying enough already without it being infested by smooth clone weirdies, jesus christ this cover gives me the willies

It was snowing this week, so I was in an appropriate mood to finish this page.

Bunch of old friends bullshitting for an hour and a half about this, that and the other. Bob Fingerman, Greg Benton, Robbie Busch, me and our host @stephendestefano.bsky.social. Watch/hear us talk about comics we made when we were kids, cartoonist signatures, Gahan Wilson and all sorts of things.

This year, I have been mostly painting 197 miniatures in as many different contrast paint colour schemes as possible. Good number for a surprisingly hectic and hammered by numerous instances of illness year. Roll on 2026. #WarhammerCommunity

#COMPANIONSofCHRISTMAS: Türst! Türst is a cruel hunter who most-dangerous-games his way through the Swiss countryside during the Christmas season. He hunts with a trio of braying, three-legged schweinhunds (the offspring of a tryst between a hunting hound and a wild boar). 1/

Here are four of my most popular cartoons on 2025

The Peter Max Book of Crochet (1972)

Sometimes you can barely draw anything at all and other times it comes streaming right out of you if you feel something very strongly, such as self loathing

If you're considering recording & distributing a TTRPG AP show I beg you not to invest money, time, & effort to just slap it up on YouTube. I hate A-Cast as much as the next guy - their ads make MaxFun's sound good - but for $15/mo you can have a proper podcast feed I will at least listen to once

The greatest remix of all time, or merely the most appropriate?

One of the surprises earlier this year was seeing this pencil original art again after so many decades. Slightly water-damaged (but scannable), my original pencils for the TYRANT® #4 cover art, which I inked on vellum overlay. Thanks to Diana Schutz for holding on to this & for the return!

Model Diane Webber pulling off the difficult advanced yoga position known as "Average Comic Book Cover."

I want a job on The Daily Show. Show a clip of a scumbag being a scumbag, make funny faces and hem and haw while the audience lockstep laughs. When that dies out, follow up with a piss-weak joke. Maybe yell, "Seriously?!". Passes as hard-hitting satire. Cherry on top, you can afford to live in NYC.

Feeling fuckin' grouchy.

modesty laws prevented showing even one lousy frame of John Waters' PINK FLAMINGOS (1972) in the trailer, so the only footage in it is of people reacting to a screening they just came out of. every single type of extant queer person is contained in the specific sequences I have selected here

me finally getting recognized for fucking up everyone’s lives constantly

You know who was great? Claudia Cardinale. Terrific actress, fine human being, never became a fascist. Also extraordinarily beautiful. She was a feminist and a UNESCO goodwill ambassador. She died earlier this year. Just remembering her today for no particular reason.

I finished up a brand-new book in 2025. I’m going to try to get you to notice it (and buy it, and perhaps even talk about it!) in 2026. You can’t read it presently, but if you want to get a head-start you cooouuullld preorder it, or just even put it on your Goodreads “want to read” list now…

French cannibal: oh, mais oui!

By popular demand (I assume.)

They say imitation crab is the sincerest form of crab

I sent this video to my friend and she got mad at me

At the risk of sounding a bit negative at a special time of year holy fuck what a shitty Christmas

Do you think Hank Ketcham ever drew too many comics and got Dennis elbow?

My dog and two cats love to throw up on the floor and they represent 60% of the household. As a leader I can't just ignore public opinion so I also throw up on the floor sometimes to stay popular
