1. So, at the Worldcon this year there was a person who was going from panel to panel, bothering panelists by trying to get them to "collaborate" with them on a project and sliding the proposed project to them on a piece of paper. Folks, I cannot stress to you how obnoxious this sort of thing is.

Right. Okay. There is an increasing chance that I'm not going to get paid before the end of the month, which is gonna 'cause some huge problems. Which means I need to do something desperate and possibly insane. If you help me pay my bills, I'm going to make a comic on Bluesky.

Comic writer Roger McKenzie passed away earlier today. He was 75. Roger was the main writer of Daredevil when he was assigned a young new penciller, Frank Miller. Roger showed him the ropes and handed off the writing reins to Frank with issue #168. Condolences to his family friends and fans.

Early this morning, Peepster-in-Chief Roger McKenzie passed away peacefully in hospice care. He'd been dealing with end-stage heart failure and kidney disease for the past several months. He was certain that he still had some stories to tell in the time he had left, and struggled mightily to write one last script. He loved and valued all of his comic book colleagues, his friends, and the Peepsters who supported his work. He'll be greatly missed by his wife Tami, chosen family member Catherine, and furry family members Timmy, MoJo, and Baby Girl.

And if the kids stuff isn't your thing, I also do 10x5.5 digital portraits of characters. They're more work for me, so I price them at $75 with minimal colors and no timelapse, but that's another option if you want something less kids-y!
