In all of my time doing comic shows, I’ve never had a banner. I was invited to Eagle Con that’s coming up in October at Cal State L.A. and I thought it was time. It came out great. Hopefully it helps me find some new readers.

I’m late to the party with this beast, but WOW. What an achievement. The tension, pacing, brutality, intimacy, heartbreak, and plain ol’ drawing virtuosity is stunning. I haven’t read a comic like this in a long time.

I love well designed, beautifully illustrated magazines. Here’s an 1897 issue of Jugend from Germany.

It‘s clear that Hellcat doesn’t realize what bronze age Marvel comics are all about.

More work in progress done on my IPad using Proceeate. It’s a 2 pager that will appear in Kurdles Adventure Magazine #3 that will come out someday, in a nebulous future.

This is a comic panel featuring Hank, a hairless unicorn/human hybrid. He’s expressing concern about something spreading off screen.

Here's some vintage horror fan art. It's the "non-human creature" from Brides of Blood after he's ripped asunder a lovely Filipina virgin. It's part of the Fear in the Philippines box set from @severinfilms.bsky.social

I I designed a Kurdles coloring page for the kids to enjoy during breakfast at the Springhill Suites hotel in Prescott, AZ. I tried to capture the region. Anyone else want a location specific Kurdles coloring page for their business?

It’s a coloring page of two Kurdles characters enjoying a hike in Prescott, AZ.

Purchased in the Philippines in the mid-70's when my dad was stationed at Clark AFB, these unauthorized plywood and felt decorations hung in my room for much of my childhood. I thought most were long gone, but I rediscovered them in a box at my mom's place.

I love the low stakes of old Superman comics

When I'm not drawing backgrounds on Beavis & Butthead or spending time with my kids, I've been known to draw comics. #comics #kidcomics #kurdles #animation

This is a one page comic from the Kurdles featuring a stuffed bear named Sally and Pentapus, a 5 legged, walking cephalopod.

It’s the first day of school and we give the kids copies of their passports in case they’re hassled by ICE.

I don’t really do comics that format well for social media, so try your best. This one is dedicated to Pete Hegseth, who needs its message most.

This crazy shadow down the middle of Thunderbolt Ross’s face took a lot of guts. Or maybe Herb Trimpe had a big drop of ink fall from his brush and made the best of it.

We’ve been trying to free my adopted kids’ dad from ICE. It’s been a tough battle and the conditions at the San Luis facility in AZ are terrible. Worse than prisons. Our oldest has joined the fight. @maddow.msnbc.com

I usually frown on swipes/homages in comics (or anything). However, as I was introducing a character in the new Kurdles book, things lined up in such a way that I couldn't resist referencing one of my favorite cartoonists. Can you guess who?

I thought I'd break up your feed of doom scrolling with an anxiety inducing image from one of my comics.

I've been posting these over at Pixelfed and thought it might be good to share them here. These are samples from 3 short stories that will be in my upcoming Kurdles Adventure Magazine issue 3. I still have about 30 pages to finish before it's ready to come out, so it's still a little ways off.

After taking a couple of years to try to be a part-time animation guy and spend more time with the kids, it’s time to return to animation full-time for a long time. Anyone know of any bg or storyboard revisionist gigs out there? I’d also like to try art directing should that opportunity arrive.

“Pumpkin” was beautifully written and drawn by Jennifer Yuh Nelson and came out in 2000. It was published by me and is available with the rest of the Robot Publishing Co. books that I still have at robertgoodin.bigcartel.com/. #JenniferYuhNelson

My goofy war comic is now available at my new online shop. I’ve also added the first two issues of The Kurdles Adventure Magazine, some postcards, and a bundle of some comics I published years ago. I’m new to Big Cartel, so let me know if you have any problems. robertgoodin.bigcartel.com/

Humbug was one of Harvey Kurtzman’s post-Mad magazines that featured some of his old stable of artists. Issue 7 had Will Elder and Jack Davis in glorious 2-color from 1958. #Humbug #HarveyKurtzman #JackDavis #WillElder

I will be debuting this crazy thing at Comics Arts Los Angeles this weekend. Although the printing from my home printer looks great, it was nothing but costly trouble. As a result, only 100 signed and numbered copies will be made. #CALA #MiniComics #WarComics #ComicArtsLosAngeles
