What a different time! Here’s EC Segar working on Popeye at home…in a suit and tie! When I’m at home working on Collectors, I don’t even know what a shirt and pants are!!! #popeye

Collectors Theater! A smart husband knows when to wave the white flag when an argument raises its insidious head! #comics

I’ve avoided talking about this because in my few run-ins with Todd, he always been one of the nicest guys in comics. But on this, he severely out of touch. In the now infamous interview, he argues that AI makes art more efficient. 1/2

If you were worried that Eddie would never get his copy of Amazing Fantasy #15, then don’t miss this new chapter of Untold Tales of Collectors! But...getting what you want can sometimes be more dangerous than you suspect... collectorscomic.substack.com/p/untold-tal...

You know what time it is? It’s time for a new Untold Tales of Collectors! New chapter up now! collectorscomic.substack.com/p/untold-tal...

Sometimes running a shop, wanting to spend time with the partner you love and trying to care for an elderly parent robs you of your time to create your comic. But work on Untold Tales of Collectors rolls (slowly) on… And most importantly…no AI is and will never be used in the creation of this comic!

Untold Tales of Collectors #19 is up! Are Eddie and Corey on the verge of a breakthrough in getting back their Amazing Fantasy #15 or are they facing a jail breakout? Read the whole series for FREE! collectorscomic.substack.com/s/untold-tal...

Another victory this week! SCOTUS denied an appeal of an AI artist…sorry, an AI slop generator…upholding a decision denying copyright protection of ‘AI art’. #aiart

I make comics on 11x17 Bristol board, blue pencils and ink pens. Some draw theirs digitally. Both are legitimate forms of creating art. What isn’t a legitimate form of art is texting a prompt into a computer to generate a fully formed page. If you create comics with AI, YOU ARE NOT AN ARTIST.

Finished! At LA Comic-Con #lacomiccon

Work in progress here at Los Angeles Comic Con. Ready for colors!

I never learn my lesson to check the published year on Marvel sketch covers. This one was from 2012 and Marvel’s early blank covers were made with terrible paper that was too slick. Inks and colors don’t blend well on them and instead smear into an ugly mess. INTO THE TRASH YOU GO!!!
