“They asked for a sword, and we said, ‘Well, we do have swords, but we can’t give them away because they’re museum artifacts,’” said Todd Arrington, forced to resign as head of Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library.”

This is quite an escalation by ICE to go after immigration expert @davidjbier.bsky.social for his always accurate social media posts. Wow.

A Washington Post poll on Thursday found that 47% of respondents were blaming Trump and the GOP compared with just 30% blaming Democrats. Our messaging is working, keep it up! #MAGAShutdown

History repeats.

what’s made in fire must properly belong to fire; and so hell’s probable.

Read bad art. Write bad art. Critique bad art.

The new compilation has five years worth of cartoons because over the past five years no publisher I approached was interested. Admittedly I mostly gave up, I had some other stuff I was dealing with. Still, I do love waking up in the morning and seeing all the support this thing is getting.

Happy birthday, Charlie Brown

"I've always been terrified of dying broke or of being a failure. I've never taken a bit of success for granted. When it came I was always sure it wasn't going to last." Julius Henry Marx, born 2 October 1890.

Look at this thing and realize it is going to last less than 10 minutes outside before it is utterly destroyed. Look at it. It wants to have its days ended. Look. It craves the kiss of fire and embrace of the baseball bat, the caress of the brick, and the final loving touch of the sledgehammer.

In 1971, a 30-year-old Neal Adams sat down to crank out a Superman cover for Julie Schwartz. Took him an hour or so. It became one of the most iconic comic book covers of all time. Coming up at Heritage soon. Might be a million dollar piece.

Today is the birthday of artist Ramona Fradon (Oct. 2, 1926-Feb. 24, 2024). Most known for cocreating Metamorpho and her work on Aquaman, Superfriends, Plastic Man, and the comic strip Brenda Starr, Reporter.

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

🧵 Portland: ICE thugs assaulted disability rights activist Amanda Siebe as she filmed in a bike lane. Siebe, who uses a wheelchair, was body-checked to the ground. Protesters begged agents to be gentle, shouting “She’s disabled!” Instead, one agent sneered back: “She’ll be disabled now.”

October means baseball playoffs and Halloween, so why not wed the two with a little of Jack Davis’s EC Classic, Foul Play?!

is wishing the happiest of birthdays to artist Michael Golden.

This is where we are. #ICEraids #Chicago

Just chipped in on this. Here's hoping you can, too. givebutter.com/c/B7HQDj

If the government doesn't show up within the first 15 minutes, the day is cancelled and you're allowed to go home.

Sketched three monster heads the other day and decided they should all hang out together. Had a bit of insomnia and put the sleeplesness to work by adding torsos and arms to the crew. Just goofing around on the iPad.

Happy Government Shutdown to those who celebrate, don’t forget to leave unpasteurized milk and irradiated shrimp out for Saint Epstein before you go to sleep

Their feelings are very delicate

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

Looking for the violent? Look for the guns

There was a time when we really were trying to make America great.

There have been 6 mass shootings in the USA over the past 24 hours. The casualty count stands at 41. Here’s the President of the United States of America.

Drew a couple of heads while waiting on laundry this morning. Been doing minor chores on a mostly lazy Sunday, not really fired up for the eternal losing battle against ants in the kitchen so I’m letting them have their countertop parade until I make dinner. No news today. Just wanna draw and chill.

if you're in the Bay Area and end up going to the Art of Manga exhibition at the DeYoung Museum in San Francisco, please enjoy the self-guided audio tour. I recorded the narration for it, and a lot of people gave interesting comments & context on some titans of comics. www.famsf.org/exhibitions/...

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Tonight’s cartoony head doodles. Bottom one is a rerun but it fit nicely down there.

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse. Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away. Thread 👇

My car window sticker of Calvin peeing on RFK Jr seems to be having no effect on US politics whatsoever!!!

Continuing my (near) daily head doodles. Have a few more, but this is the only one I’ve colored so far.
