I've been quiet but busy. Iva Spasojević and myself are landing this plane, which is #TheReUp202. She is doing an utterly amazing job on the art. Product ths good takes time. Be patient. The entire 400-page saga will be coming this winter. It is sui generis in comics, autobio, and art in general.

Very nostalgic about my art at the minute for some reason. Anyway here’s the A1 size art I did in 2023 for an Exhibition in the big Library in Amsterdam. It was proper fancy and expertly curated by @chadbily.eu it was an excuse to have 2 days in the city and meet nice folks at Henks and elsewhere

Today is the birthday of cartoonist Morrie Turner (Dec. 11, 1923–Jan. 25, 2014). A WWII veteran & mechanic for the Tuskegee Airman, he created the comic strip Wee Pals, the first with an integrated cast. It ran from 1965-2014, and was adapted into an animated series (Kid Power) by ABC in 1972. 1/2

The class is appropriate for non-comics people too! The crux of the course is the introspective examination of the self/character, which you can apply to any autobiographic medium.

The #ReUpGang is always hustling hard, whipping up that #Heisenberg in our underground laboratory. Time for an update. Juliette de Wit has completed “Book 1” of our DC-based, weed-slinging saga, #TheReUp202. We brought in eks.graphics, aka Iva Spasojević, to take us home and illustrate “Book 2.”
