Years ago, Steve Niles floated the idea of a B&W monthly Cal McDonald/Criminal Macabre series. Nothing came of it, but i was really excited by the idea of a more textured, rough art style reminiscent of Bill Sienkiewicz or Kent Williams' pen and ink comic work. Sigh. Someday.

I saw it pointed out people are forgetting something important in the shadow of the hardship of walking up an escalator: Charlie Kirk was a life-long racist and everyone who publicly mourned him are either similarly racist or just okay with praising a dead racist.

Reminder that Trump campaigned on sending troops into American cities to take out "the enemy from within." Something to consider next time a pundit tells you the election was really about inflation.

We Bring Only Death is going to be a series of stand-alone horror/dark fantasy stories, and while drawing a longship, I wondered what I would do for a contemporary story and formed the gist. Man, I hope the first book finds its audience!

Told to try this against. . . www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8087...

Rest In Power ✊🏼

The US Trump's base really wants is there on full display in the latest episode of Peacemaker

hear me out, government of canada, you could just FUND THE FUCKING POST OFFICE YOU ABSOLUTE GHOULS www.thestar.com/business/pos...

Just saw this - -anyone have a credit for the original cartoonist?

In less than a week, it'll be October, and I'm prepping to attempt another Witchtober. Can I draw another 31 smiling witches? I'll certainly try! I decided to include a handy chart for those inclined to come along for this trip through spooky season.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

Talking to Mark Russell ( @manruss.bsky.social ) about Traveling to Mars, the best book I've read all year, and the best thing he's ever written. youtu.be/3swmdP2rE7M

When the news leaked ALIENS: EARTH was getting more seasons, I adjusted my expectations from a done-in-one season story, like his FARGO series seasons, to his LEGION series. So, the season one finale wasn't a climax but a promise.

Spreading the untruth there's no autism among the Amish is just throwing a lies on top of more lies. The entirety of the anti-vax movement made this grift possible. Considering it was largely driven by white moms on their path to the alt-right endgame shows the inherent entitlement.

The videos from pastors and priests telling people the rapture is fake is like flat-earthers saying alien abductions are made-up.

Everyone: make sure to avoid taking autism-causing Tylenol tomorrow because it might mess up your Rapture plans

Just £589 away from hitting our target now with just over five days left on our campaign www.kickstarter.com/projects/tri... @deanhaspiel.bsky.social @deanwhitecolor.bsky.social @davidmbarnett.bsky.social

Hello, my merry misfits of mayhem and mirth! We're proud to reveal the first VARIANT COVER of the campaign. Created by popular artist @azoinab, we've got a kinetic action piece of our very own Merry Andrew. This cover is sure to appeal to fans of Frank Miller, manga, & violence!

Something in a discussion last night put me to thinking on DEADWOOD - it's farewell movie, in particular. So, that collection of talented cocksuckers is accompanying me in the studio this morning.

Rewatched CHILDREN OF MEN with friends tonight. Clive Owen can really bring it when the writing is right and he's well-cast. I can't think of his giving a better performance.

There's nothing to celebrate in a popular white nationalist's murder, but there's even less to celebrate of his life.

I think it's becoming clear that if you like indie creators, you're going to need to support them any way you can. And that doesn't mean money, just spreading worth of mouth can be powerful as well.

There's a strange artist culture on TikTok. Stylized manga/anime doodlers beefing is strange. When planning drawings or proportions are dire issues, I can't take it seriously. None of them are Kim Jung Gi, so it looks like dick measuring contest among the micropenis crowd.

I'm drawing more Viking stuff today, so no new #batmanday stuff from me, but I'll repost this one from a previous year that I thought turned out pretty well. #comicsky

With its largest company, OpenAI, likely to end up stuck in its nonprofit status and collapse into a shell of its previous fiscal capability and either be sold for parts or just blow away, the future of generative A.I., its investors and other proponents is looking increasingly bleak

The Carney Liberals are a disappointment again. Claiming Kneecap can't be allowed in for supporting political violence while the govt. continues to support genocide is beyond hypocrisy www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

Fuck me this is bleak. But please, do continue to use GenAI slop thumbnails for your YouTube videos, or your album art, or your book covers or whatever else. I'll continue to refuse to watch/listen/read any of them, knowing already they're not worth the time & that you're a disappointing lazy hack.

When they declare Antifa a terrorist enemy, do they just not realize they're telling everyone who they are?

I've known Disney chairman Bob Iger since 1979. He's now made it official: he's a whore

Colbert, Kimmel, and every other late night show on notice from Der Orange Fuhrer brought this scene from The Watchmen #1

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

As they ramp up their war on the Left, Trump called himself a "moderate". I guess all white supremacists see themselves like that.

You could feel real sympathy for Colin the Nazi and his struggles to convince the people that know him best that neither he nor Charlie KKKirk are Nazis. If you really wanted to, of course. . . .

Nancy Mace, "because I'm a rape survivor I will continue supporting my rapist President to punish trans people because we've decided they're the target du jour."

This horrorshow isn't limited to the abandoned park in France. The same company owns the closed Marineland in Ontario www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0mY...

US President back-pedalling furiously after his administration treated some innocent hard-working Koreans like they were innocent hard-working Latinos.

Nobody, and I emphasize, nobody should go to the US. If you're games industry, I promise you that there are better events everywhere else.

It's a great disappointment how many people think you should show any consideration for people supporting the building of concentration camps. These monsters deny those outside their group no decency or respect, and it should be the mirror we hold to them until they fully reform.

There's a constant cost to visibly rejecting hate in this world. From estrangement from my mother and brother, to social media shadow banning, or threats of violence from supposed "free speech advocates". And it's far less for me as a cis white male. The silence from others is so disappointing.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Things must be calming down. Only three threats of violence or death over this one so far. 😆

Going to bed now but I’d love it if it’s the last thing you do tonight is set up a Patreon account and sub to my Patreon for free so you can see page 4 of Terran Omega. I really had fun drawing it.

A fuck you to all the people insisting they aren't modern Nazis despite sharing most of the same views.

Just saw a story where the connection between Columbine victim Cassie Bernal was made into a false martyr and what the evangelical right is going to do with Kirk. None of these people saw Scorsese's SILENCE. This one scene filled this old atheist's heart: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOX8...

The new weekly newsletter is going out shortly. In it I talk about the storytelling process for We Bring Only Death and my plans for the coming Witchtober You can sign up for future mailings here: mailchi.mp/1d75eec2fabb...

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed. Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing. Both sides!

Ruin a song by adding the word "literally" to the title. The Night They Literally Drove Old Dixie Down

Best description of how A.I. is flailing and about to collapse. Not argued: without big money investments backing it, there is nothing stopping governments from properly regulating it finally youtu.be/_wStScmT748?...
