Two panel comic. Panel 1: a bat hangs upside-down from a telephone line at sunset. The bat is in front of a billboard advertising the Florida Mega Jackpot, which is valued at $5,318,008 - represented with a digital ticker. Panel 2: the POV flips to the bat’s upside-down perspective, which makes the digital numbers look like they spell “BOOBIES”. The bat appears delighted.

Hey. No one can do everything. But we all can do something. It’s not all on your shoulders alone. Do what you can an hour at a time, heck, a minute at a time. Deep breaths

A little sneak peek of something I'm working on.

I'm not doomed, I'm just late
A comic about feeling doomed. Bex is lay on the floor with her head down. She says,  "It's too late for me... I fucked everything up... I took too long..." She suddenly lifts her head and says, "then again, I'm always late..." Sitting up,  she says, "And it's usually fine..." Finally standing on her feet, she says, "So why am I worrying about it?"

Merchandise Pricing and Philosophies — Chan Chau
Hi Folks, When I'm at conventions, I find myself often confronted (quite literally) about my pricing. Not necessarily because I charge too much, but more so because I charge too little for my product...

Some of my favorite pages from Luxury Ball (2016)
Cover of the Luxury Ball zine. Roselia in a flowing formal gown, sitting on a pokeball, with the words “Luxury Ball” in aggressively loopy cursive. James from the Pokemon anime in heels and a strapless sequin dress, sitting on top of his partner Weezing. Deoxys in its speed an attack forms. Deoxys speed wears a form-fitting romper with a cape, Deoxys attack wears pearl earrings and tiara and a flowing single-shoulder dress. Sableye wears a cowl dress and several jeweled accessories. She’s sitting on top of a Probobass, who seems unbothered.

Aw, gosh. Found a rogue timelapse from Freestyle! If I remember right, this was a test page. I had inked my previous books traditionally and wanted to save myself some scanning time, but knew I'd need to find a digital process that still felt natural (and didn't fling me into Detail Hell).

It’s so so lovely seeing games like Dressmaker and Meccha Chameleon bring out the creativity in folks who normally wouldn’t do it in every day life. Once they get the tools and a safe space to play, they forget worrying about being good and just have fun. I love it

9 days left, and we're just under the halfway mark! The stories and art in this collection are INCREDIBLE but we need to fund it to make it happen! 👇🏾🌟 www.kickstarter.com/projects/bon... Is something making you hesitate? I'm happy to answer any questions or concerns! #booksky 📚💙
A book map for Heavy Are The Years showing the cover (made by Riotbones) that reads: Three illustrated stories in one volume!

An archeological crew discovers an ancient city but the gods who were once worshiped there have turned... strange.

The eternity of a 50-year time loop, and using it to adopt the world's angriest cat, again and again.

Love and grief across generations as a young mother fights death itself to be reunited with her baby, recruiting the help of strange and familiar spirits.

Now live on kickstarter!

FYI, from Toocheke. They added a Tapas migration feature.
A screenshot of an email that says

Import Your Tapas.io Comics Into WordPress
You may have seen the news about Tapas shutting down. If you or anyone you know publish there, you’re probably wondering what happens to all of your comics and years of work.

We’ve just added a new import feature to Toocheke Companion (available in version 2.23+) that can move an entire Tapas series into WordPress for you — including episodes, images, thumbnails, and original publish dates.

It keeps everything in order, so you don’t have to manually copy and paste hundreds of pages.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

Four panel comic. Panel 1: two guys playing basketball outside.

Panel 3: Guy 2 calls up to the creepy ghost, “you wanna hoop?” Panel 4: the ghost is outside playing basketball with them. She bricks a shot from the free throw line. Guy 2 says, “that’s H-O-R.”

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.

@treewarrior.bsky....
maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists
