I shouldn't go to shops, it's too dangerous.

Hey artists!! Post some art you made from before Bluesky 🌈

All the reactions to Marjane Satrapi's death on twitter from feminists, Iranians, French, Muslims, and Spanish reveals not only how import she was but how politically charged Persepolis is. That's the power of comics. She's made her mark.

Marjane Satrapi made me confident enough to try to draw comics. She was proud, fearless, and filled with love. The world is a darker place without her.

Satrapi’s obituary mentioned this Instagram tribute to her late husband, and as I couldn’t imagine it I went to look. And it broke my heart.

Everyone at 2000 AD is very saddened to hear of the passing of Sue Grant, wife to Alan and an often unsung figure in British comics. Our deepest condolences go out to her family, friends, community, and all those whose lives she touched. Photo by Kim Ayres Photography

We will forever be judged for these failures, all of us, all of us who benefitted from this, who ignored this, who did not take a risk equivalent to the arms tests Palestinian babies have to suffer. History will not see this moment in time as anything but the severest failures of humanity.

The Financial Times exists to protect power and wealth. They're another one contacting old housemates and friends of mine trying to rake up stories and this is the weak sauce they came up with! Help us take on the billionaires. Tax wealth. Not work. Join.greenparty.org.uk

18 year old Garth Ennis wrote into a fanzine, and he was already 100% Garth Ennis.

Artist! Quote with your most detailed art!

Huge amount of daily newspaper output for years now has been “I relentlessly behave like an abysmal arsehole about absolutely everything, and nobody pats me on the head and says Well Done”. Or, alternatively, “I was acting like an aggro dickhead and people told me to fuck off, it’s totalitarian”

The fact that the ticking clock aspect was added in editing is one of those "once you know, you can't unsee it" things. It's brilliant how Marcia Lucas pulled it together based on what she had available. You notice that no one refers to it on-screen. It's all PA announcer voiceover.

“Spider-Noir” is now playing on Prime Video. I recommend watching it in black and white. A ton of very creative people worked for months and months on the visual effects for the show (of which there are a LOT) but you wouldn’t know it by watching the credits.

New hardcovers for VULTURES and HOUSE OF MUIR going live soon.

Marcia Lucas 1945 - 2026 Without her there would be no Star Wars.

This is great: @mikecollins99.bsky.social character concept sketches for Salvation's Child, along with my notes from the original script.

I've encountered this bullshit before. Like the time I nearly punched a relative in the face because he thought that a story I wrote about African sorcerers fighting in Africa against slavery in the 1700s wasn't black enough. youtu.be/30ZdPT67luo?...

incredible that we are still producing movies, in 2026, where the joke is just "what if a man raised his own children 🤭🤣"

I've been writing a short story with Basil Poledouris' score for Conan the Barbarian playing in the background and bloody hell I'd forgotten how operatic his score was. youtu.be/oJyZkDnR2ng?...
