A drawing of an explosion that sends several dozen Invader ZIM characters hurtling toward us. A harrowing scene!

CAN YOU BELIEVE next month marks the 25th anniversary of Invader ZIM? It’s true! The show premiered March 30, 2001. Crazy to think I went straight from the womb to drawing deformed children at Nickelodeon! #invaderzim

Just a reminder because... hey, I'm from the upper Midwest. I do poorly without work to occupy my time. (;

Gimme a yell, editors!

Invader Zim laughing on a screen going "Ahahahahahahaha"

We are almost at the 25th anniversary of Invader ZIM!

Insane. Proud I got to be a part of this legacy (in comics form)

A circle labeled "The Humanities" surrounded by smaller circles readeing "Philosophy, Literature, Art, History, Language"

The same circles as previous only this time the circle has been made into the shape of a pentacle

Let's all study the humanities

Oh it is so good. I wound up with a bunch of the Creepy/Eerie collections from a Humble Bundle forever ago. Barely scratched the surface on them, so many, and so good.

Shocked this wasn't already released

Oh me too, but I'm doing a relisten to the audiobooks and it is very weird now!

Now imagine you are on Book 5 of The Dark Tower and this happens

I was using last weekend's numbers before but this weekend we could use $500 to help with rent, groceries, and electricity. Lexi has some recent applications that I'm hopeful will lead to interviews etc but it's been a rough 8 months with her unemployment. Jobs are scarce rn.

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

I can't wait for this! I've got a shop putting it aside for me so I can read it all in one go.

My wife has family in Annapolis, I will for sure take you up on that! I always try to get a stop in at Third Eye when I'm there.

Shop Talk: One odd but genuine benefit of coloring your own work is finding all the little things you missed in the inking stage. Somebody's feet in the background, the lining of a coat behind someone's legs. Just little things you have to go back and ink in or add altogether.

It's your move, Pulitzers.

I just want to say: I love these!

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, “Obama: Dems need to avoid scolding and ‘virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Oh for sure! Would love to

Yeah, I've been doing more traditional lately too. Similar reasons!

As for the pitch, still working on it! And a few others, because I'm an idiot.

I feel you on that! I've been doing more yoga and stretches which helps. But then once I am good again, I stop! Which is kind of a rookie mistake, ha!

I've been well, busy, busy. Trying to line up stuff for midyear. What have you been up to?

Juliana! How have ya been?

You know, other than tired, ha!

All I wanna do is make comics and sleep. Which as anyone in comics will tell you, is a near impossibility.

Here's a fun little social asset that ZeroZero whipped up for the new @doughboys.bsky.social comic issue for our Chicago issue. That's me talkin' and such. Art by @fredcstresing.bsky.social and @megcasey.bsky.social.

I don't think I have ever finished Screaming Skull! Robot Rumpus however, is great.

It is 100% one of those. Meanwhile Skydivers and Beast of Yucca Flats are just weird enough to get by.

I will never forget or forgive Francis for Red Zone Cuba, so his name is also burned into my brain.
