Chuck Schumer should go down in shame with his “strongly worded letter,” man, open your eyes

Here's a sneak peek at FF #31, which comes out TOMORROW at a comic shoppe near you! It features DRAMA and also SURPRISES, paired with FUN and SCIENCE. Sorry but I simply won't apologize for such a dynamic recipe for non-stop adventure!! aiptcomics.com/2025/04/25/m...

edit: three times, black people have provided the bedrock of support against trump. But black people have overwhelmingly supported the Democratic Party in *all elections*

If you're looking for a little guided relaxation and re-focusing in our Unprecedented Times, wellness coach Caitlin McDonald (who I know and can vouch for, she is cool) is offering a free activity and discussion session today at 2pm Pacific Time: caitlinmcdonald.com/coaching/cou...

last year the New York Times or one of those papers had a massive feature article presenting ten or so black men who were open to voting for trump and ever since then, white liberals decided that black men in general had voted for trump en masse

My pattern as of late is to work intensely hard on the comic from about 9 am till about 3 pm and then I crash and take a nap and wake up again around 6 and work for a few more hours. Am I….a baby?

That last retweet reminded me of the writing contest at my Primary school, where the headmistress nun said no-one was good enough to win and all basically substandard, but everyone got an award. Instead of "You're all winners" it was "You're all losers." Thanks, Catholic School.

Sometimes I think a big reason I made it as a professional writer is that my parents avoided the two extremes of "I don't take my child's creativity seriously" and "a child's creativity must be monetized." They always supported my writing (and my study of writing) but making it a job was my choice.

(I am figuring out how to get themmm)

BWP (both stores!) is just an amazing example of what comics mean to communities. Love Katie and Andrea and the whole crew so much.

There is a tendency for people of all stripes to look at women of all kinds as teachers, mothers, caretakers

that email is a mentality born of hustle culture. an eleven year old writes their first story and your first inclination as a parent is to run to the inbox of a working professional artist to ask "can you draw my kid's story" ? at that point it's not even about the kid. it's about the parent's ego.

it's wildly inappropriate because i am a working professional artist who is AN ADULT and that is a parent willing to put their UNDERAGE child in a situation where they could very potentially be exploited. shut the fuck up

oh wow so that's what those Chilean miners are up to.

Given how this site tends to be I am sometimes surprised no one has made more of the "Transformers: Headmasters" name for that line of toys/cartoon stuff. I mean you know if was all bullshit when Nancy Reagan wasn't listed as part of the group.

"turd luddite" would be a good username for someone who doesn't have to be professional online in some capacity.

pleased to report my ambition of becoming a smoothie person has been realized [frozen bananas + berries + kale + chia seeds + greek yogurt + milk]

I don't love the Now You See Me movies (I am a grump about how much they use CG when a movie about stage magicians should mostly rely on sleight of hand and practical effects) but I respect how they are just straight up heist movies where they Ctrl+F HEIST and replace with TRICK

Another fine OJST comic from the mighty @ripleylacross.bsky.social

it’s super cool being a transmasc parent who transitioned as an adult and then became a parent because I get to spend literally my entire life being erased from my own experiences thanks to other people’s gender stereotypes

boys will train in a boxing gym and think they know something about fighting a gorilla to the death

Relatedly, I think it's okay for me to say that I'm absurdly proud of DC Comics as a company for publishing both Jenny's story and publishing DC Pride as a whole. You've seen the world out there. They could've stuck this in a drawer. But it's not just rainbow capitalism; DC is doing what's right.

Making it a thing to change the air filters on the hvac, the hepa air purifiers, and the bipap all on the same day.

I’m not a political expert, I’m just a talkative type. Zohran Mamdani and Adrianne Adams are the ones that I’m looking for. But they are not doing well in the polls! Everyone is angry at our mayor and these two candidates seem to be the ones who want it repair the city. But what do I know

Yup, we're not going anywhere! Just a skip month. Go read Gotham City Sirens!

Hrm I don't really have a specific plot or genre! I love writing dialogue and working with folks who thrive on emotionality and can land a comedy or dramatic beat. Which shakes out to writing interpersonal drama a lot but that's how comics work, baybeee

For the people who are not in New York City, I have a bit of advice: the “liberal” label is not the whole story. As you might be able to tell, with our Wall Street and our NYPD and our Staten Island

I think that Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo are both bad. I do not think there is a useful reason to debate which is worse than the other. I would recommend not voting for either of them in the ranked choice

Just because social media is often a time and energy sink for me as I have OVD and can’t always manage impulsive behaviors exacerbated by social media tech, it’s not an indictment on anyone who enjoys it or can spend hours here without negative consequences.

Saw near Bristol. Magnificent.

Where was this urgency and framing during the election?

Hey, look what's not a secret anymore. I lettered this for @tonyisabella.bsky.social and still get EXTREMELY EMOTIONAL whenever I remember it exists.

Book announcement coming later this week

The Germans probably have a word for the complicated knot of shame and pride you have when walking along a path, and a string of runners are coming the other way while you're carrying as many reduce-to-clear boxes of Creme Eggs as you can physically hold.

ADVENTUREMAN: FAMILY TREE 2 ships next week from @imagecomics - catch up with a look of issue 1 here- bindings.app/read/BjYZ36tU @mattfraction.bsky.social @claytoncowles.bsky.social #Adventureman

they do look the same, actually. This is not “telling on ourselves,” you video game fans are in your own world that is unfathomable to normal people

ayyy happy pub day to @jasondashbailey.com !!

It's always Miami Vice and never Miami Virtue

A Tesla honked repeatedly at pedestrians crossing lawfully. At ME in particular And I promise you, I did not kick his fucking door. You know what that is? Growth.

Grateful & humbled that my daughter and I are being honored Thurs. by the @afspnational.bsky.social with 2025 Lifesaver Awards for our work on @imagecomics.com/Syzygy's A HAUNTED GIRL, co-created by @marcolorenzana.bsky.social, and the mental health advocacy behind it. More here: shorturl.at/UTrGF

My kids told me that I should draw more Naruto characters— and who am I to argue with their sweet li’l faces? So, here’s SASUKE UCHIHA!

I added a few ink drawings (including this one) to www.tomgauld.com/art-for-sale

I caught them both in the act: The guy with his wraparound shades that you’re going to block on social media. And his wife, taking the photo of him. You hate to see it

minority report was a cautionary tale

Jeff Bezos is softer than baby shit.

Was reading a Red Bee story and ran across this sequence which seems particularly timely. The epidemic is influenza, and they're celebrating "hospital appropriations" graft that has emptied the town's coffers. The Red Bee left them alive, which I think was a mistake.

Thread with some bits and bobs about the new game I'm noodling with and doing early playtests of.

jessica i see you want to be part of the publishing industry and my advice is to just say sorry and move on instead of getting pissy and trying to explain a creative process. we all know how it works

Give credit where credit is due! The White House deserves full credit here and our First Amendment right guarantees Amazon may speak to Americans of the real costs of this new policy. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Yyyyyesssss youtu.be/gYbnjaK5nsI?...

my art is not an invitation for a writing prompt as these are my characters with their own stories. thanks

The Jackson Donne books by @davewhite.bsky.social are some of my favorite crime novels - dark, twisty, well-crafted and firmly in the Robert B. Parker tradition. So glad they're back in print - with a new installment next year! buttondown.com/DaveWhite/ar...

This is how I won over @phoenixforce.bsky.social

my agent fwded me this email which a) is a wildly inappropriate & disrespectful thing to ask of an artist b) exploitative of your child. i had words.

I wish I had room in my suitcase for these

I'm *praying* Glinner moves into my neighborhood. *Oh*, the fun I would have with him.

Doctor Manitoba Canada Fact: Loosing an election so badly you also lose your own riding is fucking funny.

What an industry we work in, where Diamond gets accused of exciting new crimes every morning.

The great thing about the NDP is that the people who show up for them to work on campaigns, those who vote, really believe in positive change for ordinary people and they want to work for it. They are not cynically aligning values with the bigger parties, they have goodwill, and they care.

I cannot emphasize enough how much you should order this book. It is unlike any other Pride special to date in its ambition.

I just did an autobio comic, so I can do this! Colors by the great @robinfasel.bsky.social. I should draw me more.

THE LAST OF US but it’s Beanie Babies.

Wilford Hamilton “Captain Billy” Fawcett, born on April 29, 1885. A veteran of the Spanish-American War & World War I, he started the bawdy humor magazine, Captain Billy's Whiz Bang, in 1919. Fawcett Publications expanded to include other magazines, and eventually, comic books. #Shazam!

The best part is, this is an actual New York pizza and the source of the photo is the New York Times. For real. You’ve been double-gailed!

So I was supposed to stay on Twitter and get harassed by the people who turned it into a right wing echo chamber in order to prove to the people harassing me that I’m not in a leftist echo chamber? What I don’t get is why I would feel the slightest desire to prove anything to those people

A nice little lunch
