I've a new graphic novel out. If you like grilled bread or the supernatural this really is the comic for you. You can follow the link to buy it but try and get it from your local indie bookshop if you can. Thank you. bonnierbooks.lnk.to/ghostandtoast

Do modern kids know what a screwball is or am I just ridiculously old? This picture though...

I'm upping my game with this COVENTRAIN idea @coventrycc.bsky.social Can I pitch to your PR team? Or just show them this. I'm pushing for full car wrap, Cov symbol mascot & branding the heck out of it. You've got a crazy new weird little thing here - maximise it! #cvlr #tram #train #coventrain

Today you can get the entire current Kitty Quest series on the Kindle for under a pound a book. I'd prefer you'd buy the real books at your local bookshop but I'll turn a blind eye if you follow this link to Amazon and get your Kindle copy here: tinyurl.com/Kitty-Quest

I did the Easter illustrations for Alexa. Ask your device about the Easter Bunny and you'll get a nice little interactive assignment and see a picture too. #illustration #cartoon

Also - look at how much a copy costs a quarter of a century on. I was always destined for cult appeal. #retrogaming #nintendo #videogames #ratattack

It's 25 years to day that the best ever Nintendo 64 console game was released. 21st April 2000. The Playstation version had already been out since October 1999. Designing this game was my first ever 'real' full time job and I was super proud of it. #retrogaming #nintendo #videogames #ratattack

I think ball-point pens are an underused medium. I like those 4 colours in one pens the best.

I really enjoy the genre of the classics but told from the baddie's point of view. See Stone Blind.... could I pitch a book about Cerberus, the Hell Hound of Hades? Of course not - I just like drawing three headed dogs.

I feel I need to post more illustrations on here - I'll try to be more proactive.

Look at these amazing Kitty Quest comics the students of St John's school in Kenilworth made for #WorldBookDay2025

I'm really enjoying TCGP on my phone. First time player. I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's great when companies allow illustrators to go crazy with their IPs. Obviously this isn't some rare card, it's just one I did. #pokemon #pokemontcg #tcgp #illustration #art #characterdesign

This morning's procrastination has taken me down a yellowhammer worm-hole. Have yet to find out why they're called 'hammer' (or whammer). Any help @rspb.bsky.social ? I love that its song has a rhythm that sounds like "A little bit of bread and no cheese."

I remember the days when there'd never been a good film based on a video game, but is the Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise the first films that have become better than the games? Apart from Sonic Mania and all those retro titles.

Small silly seasonal Kitty Quest strip. You can still get these books for Christmas you know. #books #graphicnovels #comics

I can't do the 20 covers in 20 days challenge that's flooding my feed, but I often think about this book although I've never met anyone else who's read it. #BookSky #Books #Afterman

I wrote a piece on why comics matter for @booktrust.bsky.social which you can read here. www.booktrust.org.uk/news-and-fea... After my recent book tour and the young readers I met I can tell you that they really do matter. I'm not sure a lot of UK publishers get that.
