My art for Ocelot Pride was revealed today! I’m so honored that I got to create something for a Magic the Gathering card that is popular with many players!

This is why I wish we had a Cartoonist's Guild. Not a collective. Not a union (legally not possible). But a guild with collective bargaining (and insurance omg). But who of us has the time to maintain one??? We are kept so damn busy bleeding our fingers dry for publishers who have NO CLUE.

I just backed Evie and the Helsings Volume 1 Trade Paperback on @kickstarter.com @stevebryantart.bsky.social Love this series, sorry I could not spring for the guitar! www.kickstarter.com/projects/don...

The cover for this week’s issue is “Wintry Mix,” by Harry Bliss. See what’s inside: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/0dREbA

Americans having to bootleg broadcast news about our government’s offshored concentration camp is a level of fascism that immediately precedes democratic societies dropping leaflets on us from weather balloons.

The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.

Everyone, please share my portfolio so as to connect with new creators & clients ASAP. Thank you!

Damn, that’s… exactly what I bet I looked like tonight

@pattonoswalt.bsky.social put on an amazing show tonight at Go Bananas in Cincinnati even though he was a little under the weather. I never know what a sketch I draw in the dark will look until after but but it captured the moment! At least we did not have a Tig Notaro Incident.🤣✍📗#urbansketching
