Recently published EC cover: “red walls”

Dear comic book conventions that take place outside the United States, s’up?

More like “clod whisperer”, amirite…?

If you’re in a band or a theatre troupe that uses ai to make your poster, fuck you. scab.

Wee adventurer. Mixed media. I actually started this one for septempera but was having a hard time finding the way forward with it. It stayed on my desk for ages and I was thinking of tossing it but I decided to try scanning it and finish it digitally instead, and I'm glad I did!

I've mentioned before I've updated my contracts to make sure everything in the production of my books is done by humans and not "AI"; if you're wondering what such a thing looks like, here's a clause covering that from a recent contract.

The mummy vs the frankenstein vs the dracula.

No ISBNs in Canada for AI writing. This is a fantastic policy, and every country should do the same. www.canada.ca/en/library-a...

I so love that we live in a world where my wife and I can can discuss over lunch sourcing a part for our broken vacuum cleaner and now EVERY AD on my Instagram feed is for new similar vacuum cleaners. It just makes me feel safer.

Look, Joanne is admittedly a disastrous toilet of a human being, but, given that in its centuries of existence the British publishing industry only ever managed to produce seven books, what are we supposed to do?

Pushed this a little bit further last night.

@ronsalas.com dude, you have GOT to change your profile photo. I don’t like this. I don’t like it at all.

I am not going to go see endgame redux or whatever it’s called. If you cannot tell a coherent story in your 3+ hour film without requiring your audience to pay to do 3+ hours of homework, you have made a bad film.

I’ve started using one of my mum’s travel mugs but I can’t quite shake the feeling that it’s giving me the finger.

With the new Ray Gunn trailer out in the wild it’s a REALLY good time to search up the work of Jean-Claude Mézières. Just sayin’…

Some affable space monsters.

I guess it’s Batman day today for some reason? So here are some batmen I guess?

Now, hear me out: Has anyone gone looking right here? I feel like *someone* left us a big clue.

I asked ages ago but didn’t get much of a response so I’m taking another swing at it. Does anyone following me either know how to read Cree or know someone who can?

“Prominent Conservative Mark Carney to change name of party he leads to the NeoLiberal Party of Canada.”

All set up for the Ottawa Comic Con. Come. Buy!

Stone. Gouache on paper. 4th one for #septempera. There's a village near where I live where there's this tree that awkwardly hugs the last remnants of a stone wall. I've been wanting to paint it for a while. And I took the chance to put in a tiny homage to a favorite of mine, Rien Poortvliet.

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

I guess I missed the news that the US had imposed a 50% tariff on original works of art entering the states from Canada. Soooo I guess no more commissions for American customers. I’m sorry your country is closed for business. Get well soon.

I’m gonna need people to stop posting photos of beloved celebrities for a little while. They’re awesome and I love them but my heart can’t take it.

God damn it.

Good mail day. Whisky agrees.

Cara has gone out of its way to opt out of scraping. Tech bros are just doing it now out of spite. Legal action is required. Artists have to help themselves—no one else cares. www.gofundme.com/f/help-cara-...

Looks like theres a new Robin Hood comic coming out so I’m just gonna put this right here: tomfowler.threadless.com/designs/oode...
