I had the opportunity to read the arc of I LOVE APOCALYPTIC ZOMBIE MISFITS BY @dougwagner13.bsky.social & Daniel Hillyard and it is such a fun and wild book. I was sold at the murder chickens. Yes, you read that right 🐔🔪

IS TED OK? has reached that supremely awkward time in its release/ordering schedule where issue 2 has been solicited well before issue 1 has dropped. It's just the way it is--obviously if you read the issue description you might have some plot stuff spoiled. It's a banger, though.

The cover to IS TED OK? issue 2
Close on Sarah as she looks at the camera in front of a blue/cyan textured background. She's surprised and fearful. Reflected in her glasses is Ted, raging at her, colored in harsh red and orange tones. She's bathed in orange light with a cyan rim light.

The cover to IS TED OK? issue 1--so you can see the overall motif I'm going for. Big head, close-up, very dramatic. Close on Ted, eyes rolled back into his head, otherwise expressionless. He is very much on fire.

Anyone see EDDINGTON? I feel like the movie changed genres 2 or 3 times… and that’s not a complaint.

Does ANYONE know of in the very least a short term solution? Are there non profits that help pay for people's healthcare??? I'm in FL and we are literally in the courts trying to get healthcare expansion on the ballot. I live in the worst part of the country for help. :(

Mike Phillips @mikemakescomics.bsky.social · 13/10/2025

HUGE NYCC NEWS! Just kidding. New issue has dropped! It’s a prequel to Necropolitan #1. This one doesn’t take place in Hell. It’s like one of those Orange is the New Black flashback episodes before they’re in jail. www.drivethrucomics.com/en/product/5... It’s on Kindle too, but Bezos, ya know?

gaseous cloud collapses, gathers into itself - heats up - remaining material thinly spread outward - only rock nearish, gas/ice farther still. Solar system is forming... Panels 10/30... #Nostos #Unflattening 2

10 panels from a comics page in progress - in two rows of 5 each. Top row, panel one a gaseous cloud. 2-4 - supernova, its shockwaves colliding with that cloud. 5th panel see the cloud collapsing beginning to turn. Second tier - first panel - spinning gases, center warming. Panel 2 - great cloud of gas spinning and partly obscuring proto star within, panels 3-5, other side of protostar seen in prior panel - it's later in the solar system's evolution, we see no gas near the star, then a thin layer of rock and farther out gas - a differentiated disk swirling around the star...

Julian Darius is one of the best undiscovered comics writers today. His NEMOT RISING space-horror mini is part of a larger Martian Universe that’s like a Mitchener-esque Martian saga: patreon.com/cw/martian/shop martianlit.com/comics/
