The biggest challenge is putting some kind of "excuse plot' together. That is, if the plot is ever needed to begin with anyway.

It's times like these that I'm glad nobody ever buys my commissions.

That depends on how you define "higher standards".

Maybe that can be better suited for an X-Rated comedy flick or maybe an XXX picture.

About time you started drawing animals, namely a flamingo.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Well, it's not like you know any of such places near you in the first place, anyway.

Good to see you try to get your spark back.

Imagine what Mickey Mouse has to go through.

Well, if what you're saying is true, then there might be a chance to dare anyone to write/draw better material.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

You don't suppose the story/relationships are poorly executed/developed, do you?

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

I understand where you're coming from: being treated like an outcast like that. I'm sure you've found better people here online than in the real world. I know nothing I say is ever gonna be of any help at all, but I hope I have a lot more to give to you.

Maybe they could set up a "Ride a Clown" joint prior and in-between circus shows.

I'm sure it'll come to you in time, provided your patient for it.

She would definitely not be recommended as a babysitter.

Next, I suppose you'd like to tell me he prefers pineapples on his pizza or pours milk in his bowl before his cereal.

Aw man. And I didn't even complete my account for it.

If y'all are to hire me for whatever animation project you're working on, what position/role would you most likely put me in?

Maybe they're outraged by the backlash they've been getting in regards to their AI reliance.

Happy 250th 4th of July, everyone! And be on the lookout for more Bruce strips coming out every Sunday. (And thank goodness for BlueSky's 10 pic update.)

I gotta admit, for a second there, I thought I was gonna be late to make this for the 250th year of the 4th of July. It's taken me to this point to brainstorm the speech for this very strip. But I managed to finally upload it right on this very day, as we speak. After all, it was now or never.

I highly doubt it's gonna matter at that point.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

Guess at that point, I'm sticking to one/two panels a day. Maybe start with the dialog, as per the tradition of comic strip composition.

000

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

I mean, I'm just used to character poses, yet the background is more work getting the semi-realism of every forest and city. And the story/gag plotting becomes even more so.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

You wanna know why I made my comic strip commission so expensive? It's just so much work getting more than 4 panels composed.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

I could change the prices a bit, if not lower at your convenience. Let me know how low you'd like them to be.

Now that I think about it, Walt could've used AI as some kind of co-pilot.

A rubber body would be impossible to claim. But at least you'll find yourself a little stretching routine that'll work the best for you.

For that, I just know everyone's gonna hate my cartoons.

000

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

And hearing of all those troubled productions in every studio has given me so much worries about how I ought to run my cartoons. I've so many ideas piled up in the vault of my skull, unsure how anyone would ever like, let alone understand them all.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

(Cont.) Because if all those "horror stories," especially within their company and its pipeline, ever go out, the company's reputation would be ruined more than it already is; they could lose their jobs, and ergo their way of life.

Jonathan C. Allen @circuscartoons.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

I've a gut feeling that neither the CEO nor the executives would ever want all those troubled productions compiled into a documentary.
