Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 14/12/2025Disney investing in OpenAI is way worse than if they just took licensing money. They now have a financial stake in the success of AI art. 1100
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 22/09/2025What movie do you consider “perfect?media.tenor.coma robot is standing in front of a doorALT: a robot is standing in front of a door 190
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/05/2025I try not to be political on my social media but then find myself wondering why no one seems to be paying attention to Adriana Smith 240
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 12/04/2025I saw a comment saying how Norah Horwitz accomplished so much in editing at such a young age, but she was so prolific, dynamic, and confident, even just from the couple years I knew her as a still teenaged intern at Marvel, almost two decades ago. I am completely saddened by the news of her death. 050
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 01/04/2025I spit on your feelings of imposter syndrome, mine are real 1141
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 29/03/2025I also love oversharing but hate having overshared and both are so bad 020
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 29/03/2025And I also hate about myself that I am aware of my follower count on this app being 1998. 030
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 29/03/2025I have a store signing in an hour and I hate the idea of no one showing up, and I hate the idea of a lot of people showing up. I hate that I hate that. I hate that my day is going to depend on what others think of the work that I do and I hate that in the end, to the world, I am only my work. 050
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 29/03/2025I feel like I spend most of my art-consuming life chasing comic books that make me forget that I make comic books 010
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 28/03/2025When I hear talk of pie I am always disappointed when it turns out it’s about pizza 030
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 28/03/2025I think I like devs more than severance because it’s like a quadruple shot of espresso to severance’s venti caramel macchiato that also has four shots of espresso 010
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 28/03/2025watched severance and my theory is there will never be a season 3 and there was never going to be and in my mind that’s perfect 120
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Once right a music producer gave another producer the rights to use his voice as featured on a track As a sample on a new song For free and uncredited Without knowing how it would be used It was him saying right about now & The funk soul brother Never provide free labor On anything sold for profit 040
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Posting my thoughts on the culture that created that AI Studio Ghibli filter would only add to that culture 110
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Watching severance for the first time while reminding myself that it’s perfectly okay that there are people who couldn’t get past the first episode of The Wire because they were annoyed by Dominic West’s Baltimore accent 040
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Do you know what was a waste? Boom! shouldn’t have just marketed that Keanu Reeves writes comic books, but that Keanu Reeves READS comic books 070
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/03/2025Once I saw that pro basketball is watching adults get paid to put a bouncy ball into an orange hoop I couldn’t unsee it but just like that when someone in the US tells someone speaking Spanish to speak English I can’t unsee them saying don’t speak that colonizer language speak my colonizer language 030
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 10/03/2025On my last flight home I wrote a pitch/first draft for a comic adaptation of my childhood favorite cartoon On this flight home I just now wrote a pitch/first draft of an Ultimate book for my favorite Marvel character I will likely never show either to anyone but it’s fun imagining being a writer 282
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 09/03/2025People freaking out over the severus snape casting meanwhile legit 99.7% of the cast of venom 3 is English actors doing American accents and no one bats an eye I genuinely think wolverine could be played by an Asian actor. If Robert Pattinson can be Batman I think Steven Yeun could be wolverine. 181
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Just watched gladiator 2. It felt exactly like a movie called gladiator 2 161
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 28/02/2025You underestimate our collective ability to deny the undeniable if it makes us look too hard at ourselves, after all the primary audience of all our performative actions and words is ourselves. Rest assured the vipers can’t believe anything other than their own victory, their survival depends on it. 080
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 22/02/2025The commission request was leeloo from fifth element 0201
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/02/2025I’m often asked which character I love to draw but the thing is drawing 100 images of a character and drawing 20 5-panel pages of that character are two totally different things. One’s like thanksgiving dinner, the other’s like dessert for breakfast 0101
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 15/02/2025I like how I did the wrist straps on gambit’s coat. I hate how I forgot to do a shadow of rogue’s jacket on gambit’s right sleeve, or make it clearer her left sleeve is rolled up. Also I should have softened rogue’s hip so people don’t think I purposely starved her. Also gambit’s head is too big 1220
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 15/02/2025I’ve been doing these ballpoint pen commissions at conventions on 11x17 and have been enjoying doing them a lot more. I’ve also been charging for all signatures at shows, unless they’re personalized in which case they’re always free, and was pleasantly surprised by so many personalization requests. 1254
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 10/02/2025Did this headsketch in my sketchbook on the plane, which led me to do this more finished piece as a commission. What is it that’s so freeing about doodling in a sketchbook that tightens and stiffens up when you do it for money 0251

Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 24/12/2024Major retailer using AI art for its Christmas card is disappointing as hell. 060
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/12/2024I’ll be honest, I saw all the characters including the dog and was wondering if it would be accessible to people who didn’t know, but the dude sprung a walking tree and talking raccoon to an unsuspecting audience and made it work so what do I know 040
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/12/2024I’m a huge collector of slabbed comics but I only buy things I like looking at and never for spec. Buying things on spec is basically hoping to get paid for storing shit in my house and I just do not have the space 110
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 19/12/2024I think there should be an elseworlds story where Superman’s son has no powers. I think that the natural progression of that story would be something that people either relate to or absolutely hate. 120
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Field of Dreams is the best baseball movie but is not a sports movie Bull Durham is also a great baseball movie that is not a sports movie For Love of the Game is both but not great The best sports movie that isn’t technically a sports movie but is SO a sports movie is Searching For Bobby Fischer 250
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Don’t know if this was anyone else but growing up in Hong Kong meant that I found out about the challenger disaster through punky brewster and ONLY through punky brewster 120
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 16/12/2024I think my favorite band of all time might actually be The B-52’s 050
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 15/12/2024I don’t know why some comic readers resent the collectible aspect of comics. Variants don’t affect the readability of books at all, and in many instances help fund their existence (I used to hate the retailer incentive aspect until I learned that retailers themselves don’t have a problem with them.) 282
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 15/12/2024I am always amazed when I meet an aspiring comic artist who tells me that they don’t read comics Even if it’s true why are you telling me that 290
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 15/12/2024I’m hard to shop for because I buy everything I want for myself and most of it is art and no one really knows what I want except me like who knew that this would be the highlight of my 2024 acquisitions 040
Mike Choi @mikechoi.bsky.social · 14/12/2024A sketch I did on the plane. This is a microcosm of what I think is wrong with much of my artwork. I focus so much on making things look competent that I forget to make it interesting. It’s supposed to be the Hulk but man it’s a boring ass Hulk. The Adjectiveless Hulk 4181
