Anyone going to SPX this weekend who can go Instagram live with me for the awards?…

This weekend is SPX and GOOF #2 is nominated in the Outstanding Anthology section in the IGNATZ awards!! It would be incredible if we won, a real win for kids comics and it would truly put our lil comic on the map. Consider it if you will!... www.smallpressexpo.com/ignatz-awards/

Half way through HE-MAN and loving it! It just arrived on Prime today, super quick straight to free streaming, I have no idea why it wasn’t a hit. It’s damn good FUN!!!

I’ve created comics for BEANO, The Phoenix, newspapers in NYC, I’ve met and drawn with my heroes like @lewstringer.bsky.social and Sergio Aragonés, I run a festival and comics studio with my wife, and I’ve made friends with so many cartoonists. You know what, I’m doing alright! Thank you x

Macc-Pow was such a delight. Got to meet some idols, catch up with a few friends and just generally geeked out about how awesome comics are for two days solid. If you've not been, put it in your diary for next year. It's like a miniature Thought Bubble for the summer months.

It is an enduring regret that I’ve never made it to Macclesfield for Macc-Pow! @marcmakescomics.bsky.social is officially The Hardest Working Man In Comics and he has been a delight to see at other events over the years. Why is The North so far away from Brighton?

I’ve been posting a gag cartoon a day on Instagram, using my newspaper strips from the past 3 years. I’m about 5 away from being all caught up, so I’m going to attempt to draw one each day starting next week. Maybe 2 a day when I can to keep on top of things!

Best of award lists please always remember to include an all-ages/humour section to choose from. They are the lifeblood of comics, and are incredibly important to the future of comics.

How can I get one of the Tubular Tortoise figures in the UK? Seems only TARGET stock them…

marc makes comics @marcmakescomics.bsky.social · 18/12/2025

My comics don’t make any best of lists, BUT, I put out roughly three brand new titles a year, I support nearly 12 creators appearing in GOOF, and send a ton of comics to be printed and reprinted over the year by Rich at CPUK. So that’s a best of the year right there. I make comics for my job. I win!

Would Patreon serve me better as an outlet for a new regular strip that I might create? Do you get eyes on you that come because of the platform?

marc makes comics @marcmakescomics.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

Tooting my own horn Dept. I once created not one but two brand new characters for the BEANO I’m super proud of that!

I’m looking to pick up a regular comic strip job, can’t decide if I should just post it on Patreon and build an audience - but I’d love another print gig - anything out there?

At a recent comics event there was a publisher there who was expressing interest in creators, including me, not giving business cards but asking for ‘free samples’ from peoples tables. I have since not heard from this person, who is probably too busy reading all the freebies he acquired. Not cool :(

marc makes comics @marcmakescomics.bsky.social · 24/11/2025

Next year my goal is getting a comic published in an American comic book. It’s on my list, and constantly drives me to keep going. It’s gotta happen!

marc makes comics @marcmakescomics.bsky.social · 23/11/2025

Comics websites! Remember that GOOF is worth your consideration for best of lists this year. It’s a stellar lineup of cartoonists from around the world, and is the perfect comic for kids and adults! Please consider us.
