Watching breaking bad and reading les misérables are truly polar opposite experiences.

Two bad comics about Henry’s jester outfit.
a comic about the serial murder quest from kingdom come deliverance 2. the first panel shows henry examining the murder victim. he says “jesus christ. she has no blood left in her.”
in the second panel, henry continues to examine the body. “there’s a dark ring around her neck. was she strangled? her hair is all hacked off. both her breasts have been cut off as well…”
The last panel shows henry in a jester outfit, jingling solemnly. “I need to get to the bottom of this horrific and very serious murder.”a comic showing margaret from kingdom come deliverance 2. she is sitting expectantly and asks “can’t you wear something more refined for this mission?”the second panel shows henry in his jester outfit, colored poorly with crayon. he says “what do you mean?” to the disappointed and disembodied head of margaret in the foreground.

My terrible comic for Make A Terrible Comic Day, featuring Henry and Istvan It was the first thing that came to mind.
A comic that depicts the confrontation between Istvan and Henry at Trosky. Henry enters the room but does not see Istvan. Then he sees a shadow scuttle across the floor. Then he captures istvan in a glass and releases him out the window.

Because it's popular to share sources to build your own refs outside of A/ ridden platforms, here's my drive of pictures I took at armor exhibitions. I took these with my phone, some of them suck but they are pretty detailed. You're welcome to use them as ref. drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

Will i actually finish #hourlycomicday this year
Four panels of hourlies. The first says “3:50 am i am pinned down” and shows me under a blanket and two big cats. The second panel says “4am can’t sleep” and shows me looking at my phone while pippin stomps and yells. The third panel says “5am Feed boys*” and shows pippin and timo with their dishes of food. One is labeled “food sensitive diet + cobalequin” and the other is labeled “renal support + amlodipine.” A footnote at the bottom says “*old men.” The last panel says “back to bed” and shows me looking at my phone in bed. “reading the oneshot for D&D (very excited to DM badly.”

Hourly Comics Day has MOVED! It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st! hourlycomicsday.com #hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd
"IN OBSERVANCE & SOLIDARITY". Two black speech bubbles with white text read "HOURLY COMICS DAY IS NOW ON FEB 8TH. CARTOONISTS HONOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH. FEB 1 - MAR 1". There is an illustration of a black silhouetted hand raised and holding a pen in the top right, and an illustration of a nib pen and an ink well personified on the bottom right. The nib and ink are bumping fists. A URL at the bottom is "hourlycomicsday.com".

The second of the two zines i made in 2024: Like a Life Raft - a fascinating friendship starring Oscar Levant and Harpo Marx.
The cover of a mini zine titled Like a Life Raft with the words written in rope. There are two lifesaver with photos of Harpo Marx and Oscar Levant within them.The first page of the mini zine has two brief biographies taken from Wikipedia about Oscar Levant and Harpo Marx. Oscar’s reads: “Oscar Levant was an American concert pianist, composer, conductor, author, radio game show panelist, television talk show host, comedian, and actor.
He was equally famous for his mordant character and witticisms, on the radio and later in movies and television, as for his music.”
There is an illustration of Oscar. He is a dark-haired man in a suit and tie with a grouchy expression.
Harpo’s biograohy reads: “Arthur "Harpo" Marx was an American comedian, actor, mime artist, 2) and harpist, and the second-oldest of the Marx Brothers. I" Harpo's comic style was visual, being an example of vaudeville, clown and pantomime traditions.”
There is an illustration of Harpo. He is wearing a top hat and curly blond wig and making a clownishly cheerful face. There are three smaller illustrations of his brothers, Chico, Groucho, and Zeppo.

The second page of the mini zine says “One year, at a time when Harpo lived in Hollywood as a bachelor, Oscar was always at his house - smoking, drinking coffee, and playing the piano.
According to Harpo:
"I lost a house, but I gained a friend."”
There is an illustration of Oscar at the piano, smoking and resting his cheek on one hand. Harpo, out of costume and in a plain shirt and slacks, approaches with paper money in his hand. A speech bubble reads “Hey Oscar! Here’s a buck. Play me some Chopin.”The center spread of the mini zine has three quotes, each accompanied by a photo of the speaker. The first is from Susan Fleming, Harpo’s wife, from her book Speaking of Harpo. “Harpo had an uncritical fondness for troubled nonconformists and since there wasn't a more troubled nonconformist in the world than Oscar, Harpo loved him.”
The second is from Harpo from his book Harpo Speaks. “The rarest gift Oscar had to offer was not his virtuosity, but something very few people were fortunate enough to receive-his smile. He didn't give it often, but when he did, it was sunshine in Moscow. His mouth untwisted into a grin, his eyes squinched and twinkled, he ducked his head as sheepishly as a kid caught in some mischief, and in this startling flash of warmth you realized that Oscar, for all his sarcasm and sullen cracks, didn't really mean to hurt anybody except himself.”
The third is from Oscar from his book Memoirs of an Amnesiac. “Harpo Marx was one of my closest friends.
He was a dear, warm, sweet man.” An extra note to the side remarks that this compliment comes “after MANY PAGES of complaints and wise-cracks” about other people Oscar has known.The Last two pages of the mini zine depict “My favorite anecdote from Harpo’s autobio.”

My tavorite anecdote from Harpo's autobio:
The last thing I remember before drifting off was Oscar thrashing, groaning and rattling his bottle of sleeping tablets in the berth above me. An hour later I woke up. Oscar was hanging over my berth, his head poked upside-down through the curtains, screaming at me. I asked him what was the matter.
There is a cartoon of Oscar leaning way out of a train berth to yell at a blissfully smiling Harpo. The speech bubble reads:
“You son of a bitch!
I don't mind your sleeping but do you have to SMILE in your sleep?”

What the hell, I said. If that bothered him, why didn't he stop looking at me?
"Doesn't make a damn bit of difference," said Oscar. "Even if I don't look at you I lie up here knowing you're down there smiling. I've taken five pills and I can't take any more and you're driving me out of my mind." I knew it was no gag. This kind of torture was as real and as painful to Oscar as if he'd been put on the rack.
There is a cartoon of Harpo flipping to his stomach while Oscar retreats angrily behind his berth’s curtain. The speech bubble from Harpo reads:
“Look, I'll sleep on my Stomach with my faceto the pillow. Would that help?”
The speech bubble from Oscar reads:
“Try it.”
Oscar retreated into his berth and all was quiet. After a few minutes, he called down, "Much better!"
