I have a piece of advice for young cartoonists: Read some stuff and also do political comics. But maybe use a pseudonym until you get your feet steady

I have been reading Le Morte d'Arthur and frankly I have not been enjoying it. It's like a Wikipedia synopsis: this happened. that happened. That's the worst way to translate something. It shouldn't even count. They should have to give it a new title.

I love Bengus MvC art so much because there are so many good lines and such great thought behind them. Look at Venom's jaw. He has teeth. But there's no actual jawbone. Of course the symbiote substrate would flex with the pressure exerted by his tongue. Of course the tooth-line distorts. Malleable.

this is a cropped section of Bengus's Marvel vs Capcom 2 art. It shows Venom's tongue sticking out, but the teeth and jaw protrude and deform to accommodate the pressure exerted by his jutting tongue. Is this cartoon logic? Is it realism? Who even knows!

Today's hot take is that the 2021 film the Green Knight is actually about Mordred and not Gawain

a Venom comic I drew in 2018

A four panel comic.
Panel one: The Spider-Man villain Venom's tongue is out.
Panel two: Now he's reaching back over his head with it.
Panel three: He's squatting on the ground and his tongue stretches all the way over his back.
Panel four. The tip of the tongue licks his butt.

I can tell that the cats are trying to hide the fact that they get along now because I'll sometimes walk in on them holding secret meetings.

Columbo spinoff where he investigates fairy tale crime

Lt. Columbo holds a spool of sparkling golden thread.
"Y'know, dis kinda stuff just fascinates me! I don't think I've ever seen someone doin' work like dis with straw."

Lt. Columbo stands in front of a spinning wheel beside an impish gnome-person. "You're a real artisan, you know that? You must be real proud of what you've done here, mister, uh--"

"Say, I don't think I caught your name..."

I like Star Wars and everything but it's weird to me that people love cosplaying as Space Fascists. Stormtroopers and Imperial Officers are way more popular than rebel counterpoints.

ink sketches of a character in armour and a heavy fur cloak. she has a healmet shaped like a stylised boar's head, and holds a bardiche. a smaller sketch shows her doing a little hop to destroy something with her bardiche. the last sketch shows her partway through transformation into a boar. she is unclothed and several scars are visible, as well as her fat body with a significant amounto of body hair.

black and white comic page showing a cross section of some small crevice within a living organism in which a little louse has made its home. inset panels show it going through its morning routine - having breakfast, feeding a little pet worm, and going out on errands. text reads "Good Morning Louse by Letty Wilson."

box art for the card TTRPG Rusalka, published by Nessundove. in a green pool of water lilies and sedge, a woman with pointed ears, starlike eyes and a pallid complexion smiles up from the water, surrounded by many hands reaching up out of the water.

a clown labelled "spectral" drawin in black ink. they wear a tattered pierrot garb hung with bells and ribbons, and their eyes are scratched out.

In the 1920s, a man could just put on a raccoon coat and say something like "Bugly wugly!" and girls would flock. No incels then. A guy just said, "Bugly wugly!" did a little jig, and had 75 grandchildren.
