This is a great interview that covers a lot of ground on one of the best Comics of the last 10 years. But there are spoilers, including a confirmation that I read one plot thread correctly. It’s a crime that Mega Robo Bros isn’t more wildly known.

Despite the weather stopping us from visiting the wonderful Watts Gallery, loved spending the day with mum for her 70th. An afternoon fizz tea.. my first! 🥰

'Ikigai' or 'a reason for being' is a Japanese concept explaining what constitutes a happy life. You need to combine what you love, what you're good at, what you can earn money from, and what the world needs. The answer to all four of these for me is creativity. 👍 www.darrellwakelam.com

Autumn doodling! (A3) 🖊️🍁🍂

ALL behaviours are communication. This is still an area I see massively misunderstood in far too many schools😞sanctioning a child for unmet needs is never OK. It’s discriminatory at worst and cruel at best - not a good look. I also question how it fits with Teaching Standards🫤 #SEND #autism #ADHD

It's great to see so many familiar faces here, but also, a big 'hello' to new connections! 😮😁 For anyone wondering what I do, I lead 3D art projects and workshops for kids of all ages and abilities, face-to-face, and online. I've been doing this for 34 years. 😁 My website is www.darrellwakelam.com

Time to start over I guess. 🙂 Hi, I'm Darrell. I make stuff, mainly out of things you'd normally throw away. I work with children and young people, lots of them. I make 3D artwork, mainly in schools . . . and I make sculptures myself, share them online, and hopefully inspire others to have a go. 👍
