muppet christmas carol (happy holidays!)

In this moment of industry and infrastructural collapse it’s the people who have always done the labour who will continue to do so, leaving the greedy palms of corporations grasping at hollow promises and meaningless narratives.

I wanted to show off my colours for Overwatch: A new Empire. It was a lot of fun collaborating with the team and Hannah's lineart was a dream to work with. Art by @hannahtempler.com and story by @samcking.bsky.social 1/3

more frog, again. seasonal frog

its crazy that a cluster of assholes banded together and with their powers combined created an algorithm that can give you psychosis for free

Some tiny sneak peeks from my inking desk- hoping to launch my comic in January with the full first chapter on Patreon and mirrored for free to it's own website. 🤞🦩 Thanks for sticking around while I was percolating. I feel a change is in my future!

Remember when I got really into pro-wrestling? Now I can say why! So SO excited for the release of the latest comic I got to write for Overwatch 2. "A New Empire" is the origin story for Vendetta, the game's new baddie. With INCREDIBLE art by @hannahtempler.com and @riansygh.bsky.social

new overwatch motion comic out now! writing by @samcking.bsky.social , art by ME , interior colors by @riansygh.bsky.social

Bizarre feeling to realise I’ll probably make more money off the A/nthropic lawsuit settlement than I made over the entire course of the work they stole from me. Perhaps we’ve created a society so unbalanceable it should be re-levelled from the top-down?

Noodlin around. Thinking about finishing Friendly& #1 sometime soon cause I have a new idea for him.

Outside my window in sunny Los Angeles 🌴

I used to live next to whatever this building in Glendale is and I miss seeing it.

Incredibly endearing cast and the kind of charming, effortless, cartooning that makes me feel like I did reading Octopus Pie in 2013. This is a creator to keep an eye on, I feel absolutely certain everyone will be familiar with their work in ten years.

To break my Reddit addiction I’ve been forcing myself to do the daily crossword but am just now realising I’ve only substituted one type of insufferable for another lol

I’ve got a cold rn so I’ve had a humidifier running to keep the room at about 40% humidity while I recover. Today I finally felt well enough to sit at my desk for a bit but my cintiq wouldn’t boot on. I went through all the standard tech problem solving and just couldn’t get the thing to work

Sick with that nasty flu that’s going around and we regrettably spent the day wearily watching all three Maze Runner movies. Never doubt yourself again. If this garbage can get green-lit your project can too.

I finished inking chapter 1 of my book today. It might have taken me one million years but I’m proud to have gotten this far despite things being so tough rn. 🌷

We should be able to get revenge

I know fascism is here by the absolute bonkers censorship of the top-50 on the car radio. These conservative IHeartRadio idiots are out here bleeping normal words like “wet” or “stoned”. Drives me crazy!!

Feeling a shred of hope and optimism for the first time in a long while, looking wistfully out my Los Angeles window wondering when the wave will hit our city too ☺️☕️

just over $2k left to raise for my service dog, so i'm gonna post my link here again with the same offer as last time: if you donate $5+ to my gfm and post screenshot of donation + a picture of ur pet in the comments i will reply with one (1) silly drawing of them, just for today and tomorrow! :)

ok ok last muppet render for now 🐸

Scarlet Morning is one of the best novels I’ve read in years. A genuinely thrilling pirate adventure that made me feel exactly how I felt as a kid reading Lemony Snicket for the first time.

LRT: lol I forgot to mention I’ve been working in comics again for a little while now, lots of cool little projects coming out in the next few months!!

GUESS WHAT❗️ADVENTURE TIME #️⃣5️⃣ IS OUT‼️ BEHOLD❗️ BABY FINN‼️ W: @winnstinn.bsky.social A: Kenzie Bugg Colors: @riansygh.bsky.social L: @robutoid.bsky.social Also including “GOVERNOR TIFFANY” by @derekmballard.bsky.social & PM Araya

1976. More from my book.

Another character from my book, trying out a slightly more laborious approach. I'll have to be more economical in the pages.

I'm working on my ghost hunting book everyday. I can't wait to show more. Learning csp has been challenging but I'm starting to feel it out. This was a lil test.

I'm looking for BG Paint work, would love to paint some anime sparkles for your project! www.riansygh.com/animation-de...

The thing I am finding out, about drawing a 400 page graphic novel, is that I have to keep drawing it. And I’m not so sure I really /fully/ understood that one hundred and fourty five pages ago

These trader joes blood orange mochi icecreams have my whole ass in a vice grip.

Penciled page 100 in my book today! That's officially one quarter down, three to go. Did you know that comics take an outrageously long time to make? Here's a sneak peek because I crave validation.

I know things are going great for everyone when this comic gets numbers going again

i’m not an artist, i’m not an illustrator, but a stupider third thing: i’m a cartoonist

i close my eyes and believe that you are here

Dystopia is here, my smart watch just pushed through an Ad that just says “you want to eat Taco Bell, don’t you?”

Being forced to do my work outside on a beautiful day because the loft where my workspace is wants to be 90° for some fucking reason

Got the farmers market baguette cradling me like the baby Jesus while it heals and restores my faith in the world

Absolutely WILD seeing my work in this database stolen by AI fuckers

Today’s greatest comics challenge yet: five people all talking seated at a low table. I should have set this conversation in a blank void.

Looking through a bunch of art from 10+ years ago and feeling a mixture of bewilderment, nostalgia, and deep personal embarrassment ha ha

Trans rights are YOUR rights. Fighting for us is fighting for self-determination and bodily autonomy for everyone.

So tired of being forced to call my reps so they might feel a little bad about putting me into the big blender, but what else can you do when you’re stuck in the big blender and also trying to dance on the spinning blade?

When you hit the entrance to the HOV lane and get to feel like the King Of Burbank for six exits
