New pre- #steampunk #Cogs&Caves from me! Mixed media comic (photos, cave art & graffiti). Inspired by myths from the land of ice and fire. Hills that look like trolls, a Remnant that has only ever tried to help. Buy at www.mindstainshop.com or @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social Redshirt Hall, Table A11.

On the subject of @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social, if you make comics, please assume that we would like to stock them. While budget and space are limited we love indie comics and their creators, so if you're coming to Thought Bubble please swing by our stand and give Regie the Hard Sell...

Final 3 hours of frantically spamming everyone about High Grey. Soon I get to spam everyone about other exciting things while @ckinney.bsky.social draws a lot of cats and I wait to make it all fit on the page and stick @robertsburton.bsky.social cattish thoughts in between cat paws. kck.st/49r8nN0

Morning #cat bounds out of the door, off on an adventure while you tend to the daily grind. You wonder what a cat might be thinking. Explore this in High Grey, a very cattish graphic novella. Last 3 hours of the kickstarter, ends at noon. kck.st/49r8nN0

Morning cat looks up at you with those beautiful eyes and says, still time to put me in that comic. 26 hours to go and still seeking the final star of the show. Still places for non character cats to have pride of place in a panel. Immortalise your cat now and back High Grey. kck.st/49r8nN0

It's been an interesting dip into social media while spreading the word about High Grey. It's like everyone has only one table at a con and you are all shouting at once about your new comic while at the same time gasping about the horrors of the world outside, never knowing if anyone can hear you.

Tonight I sat in a pub with friends and read comics that we picked up @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social. Its been such a busy year I realise there were some from last year I still hadn't read! Pub comic reading will have to become more regular activity.

@alexpaknadel.bsky.social @casparw.bsky.social Had a lazy sunday with All Against All. I love how feasibly alien your aliens are... did you ever sketch out exactly who 'the enemy' was? Might have to have in person chat else spoilering it for anyone not read it.

Daleks have taken over the BBC studio and it still gives me chills. How brilliant is that after decades.

It's 5pm. Your cat is waiting for you at home and you know it is going to stare at you with those big eyes until you immortalise it in a comic book kck.st/49r8nN0 #HighGrey
