It amuses me no end that a get texted by celebs thing is still going after 5? years. I signed up at the time to get texts from Paul Scheer and Sir Paul McCartney, my mom was a Beatlemaniac so I was going sign her up. Never did. Haven’t heard from Scheer in years. Sir Paul texts about once a week.

Another studio day, after picking up the aforementioned paper and supplies. Turned a pack of cardstock into a few decks of what I call the “Tarot Generot”, a very basic tarot deck design-inspired by the generic products from Repo Man. Available soon as a free download or buy a copy in person/online.

Back in the studio for an evening of comics making but first I’m binding up some blank comics. There will be some available for free here at The Yellow Door and I will see if some other local spots would also like them. Plus you’ll be able to download and print them yourself if you like.

Heading home from a nice late afternoon to early evening in the studio, trying to make it a habit to work on my own comics here every Sunday night. And more ideally but this is for drawing with the analog tools, I can do digital anywhere.

When people ask me “what’s the greatest comic ever made?” this is probably my most frequent answer. Been trading in a lot of good old stuff to help lubricate my poverty and move to NB, & used some of my credit for this first beautiful volume. So much better than the illegible tiny trade paperbacks

Whew! All done scanning the weird old ads out of the pile of comics I’ve had in the studio for months. The comics themselves will be recycled into bundles for fundraising and in the worst cases of damage, scraps for collage and button pressing.

Having another day of scanning old comics in the studio. Some classics like Kirby’s 2001 treasury, some random old stuff with hostess cop cake ads.

If you’re looking for an excellent movie that happens to have a Xmas component and also speaks well to our times, do check out Stalag 17 by the great Billy Wilder starring the great William Holden.

This is a bit of a medium experiment for me but I like it so far. B&W photo I took in Digby nearly 40 years ago > photocopied and enlarged on inkjet printer > mounted on primed Michaels canvas and pulled, leaving some paper residue > finished with brush and acrylic paint 🎨

About a decade ago I did a few years of nanowrimo, and one of my favourite completed novels was about a female Jack Reacher style character who returns to her hometown and starts kicking in the teeth of local criminals. This is the root of a new comic idea I had called Icebreaker, set in America.

TGIF! Staying dry inside and finishing up a job application, finishing up a fun binding project that I’ll be discussing over on my Patreon, and hopefully finishing decorating some treat bags before the local kids brave the weather. Stay safe all.

I like the @tourbox.bsky.social Neo but it’s annoying that you basically need the Bluetooth version for the iPad, which doesn’t support the wired connection. If you are looking for one for your desktop video editing or artmaking shoot me an offer, I might be tempted to upgrade 😎
