I’ve been wanting to revisit Back to the Future for a while. Finishing up on the illustration I then find out it’s Michael J. Fox’s birthday today. It was meant to be, apparently. I hope you enjoy! Oh, and Happy Birthday “Marty”!

Even the most renowned grey cells deserve a holiday. And what could be more fitting than a tranquil cruise along the Nile? #poirot

Electric dreams! Been a while since I drew a “Car of the Day”, so here’s an electric one…from 1974. Zagato, an Italian design and coach building company, produced the Zele, a microcar between 1974 and 1976. It wasn’t exactly known for it’s blistering speed, maxing out at around 50 kph / 30 mph.

The Secret of Monkey Island (1990) – one of the best games ever made! Did you ever play it? I had to do a little ligne claire homage of this funny and slightly crazy game. My personal favorites among the many versions are the pixel version from 1990 and the followup – LeChuck’s Revenge from 1991.

1. Chat GPT’s “Ghibli” feature reminds me of the story of plastic: When plastic became available in the 50s and 60s, everybody loved it. It was stylish, modern – furniture, kitchenware, fashion. We all know how that ended: It’s now seen as cheap and disposable...

A little Black Adder homage a la ligne claire. Even though the first season was arguably the weakest, it’s nevertheless the right place to start. Maybe I’ll get back to the later seasons at some point. Which season was your favorite?

Meet Jerkbert Duckson. He is not happy. Back when he was a hatchling, ducks didn’t simp to self-proclaimed alphas and wannabe fascists – they fought them. By all means share, if you sympathise with Jerkbert.

I got the Twin Peaks box set for Christmas, so it was odd to suddenly hear of David Lynch’s death. As a fan of the series, as well as Lynch’s direction and his portrayal of FBI Chief Gordon Cole, I thought I’d keep it light by sharing a characteristically quirky Cole quote from the show.

Just joined Bluesky, so I thought I’d start out with a few bits of art, being a comic book artist, specializing in the Franco/Belgian ligne claire style. Here’s some mashup parodies I did between the Tintin comics and the Star Wars Universe. For anyone stumbling across my profile, I hope you enjoy!
