Fathers, talk to your boys about consent. They'll think you're cringe; fine, let them think you're cringe, doesn't matter. They need to hear it, and they need to hear it from you.

Don’t throw out old pyjamas. Collect as many pairs as you can, and in the middle of the night spread them out on Pete Hegseth’s front lawn so that when he wakes up he’ll think he missed the Rapture.

I think I can sum up my relationship with Batman as: I like the character fine, but I would like it much more if it were something completely different from what it actually is

In 2003, writer John Arcudi was asked by Andy Helfer to write a couple of issues of Batman: Legend of the Dark Knight. (I was friendly with John, we were trying to pitch a comic together at the time.) John didn't really want to do it, so he said, "I'll only do it if Roger Langridge draws it."

It occurs to me that, as a working artist, I should probably post my art more often. So here’s a commission I did last year.
Colour drawing of a giant typewriter around which we can see Tintin, Sam the Eagle from the Muppets, Gyro Gearloose, Snoopy and Woodstock, Hagar the Horrible and Skeletor. Winnie the Pooh appears to be rummaging around inside the typewriter.
