Gearing up for some Halloween fun.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Maybe I’m emotionally exhausted from doctor appointments but their office Halloween decorations skeletons with an enter if you dare sign feels too on point.

Foiled again! 🧐

I can't work out which of those other three is the bot?

People have been SO kind with the Batman designs I've been sharing... Here's my take on Clayface..

Edinburgh in the mist - statue of Sherlock Holmes

Edinburgh in the mist - National Portrait Gallery

Edinburgh in the mist - Greenside Parish Church

Wreathed in mist Edinburgh is the best Edinburgh

Carving turnips was the tradition all over the UK, they look like terrifying shrunken heads! remember having sore fingers as a kid trying to hollow them out.

D is and will always be, for Ducks.

Certainly better than his epitaph for Allegra. 🙁

This definitely spoke to me 😌

Panel 1: The Elmwych Paranormal Investigation Club are entering the cemetery at night through a hedgerow. Griff and Dylan are in the foreground. Griff: If the Elmwych Vampire shows up stand aside. We don't want your pretty fur getting all ruffled catkins! Dylan: Hah! You're too slow for vampires, wolfboy! Panel 2: Griff is flexing his biceps in the foreground as Dylan looks on, pulling faces. Griff: Wind your claws in pussycat. It's always been Wolfman! Panel 3: Amy stands between gravestones with her arms held out as the crescent moon shines above her. The others stand behind her. Amy: Ooh! There's psychic energy here, stronger than before! David: Great! We'll set up a sacred circle! Panel 4: Lydia is pointing to a cloaked figure she has seen retreating between the trees. Lydia: I don't think you're going to need that David! Panel 5: A shadowy cloaked figure with glowing red eyes moves towards us as the club members stand in the distance. David: What the - come on, let's follow. Quietly as we can! Panel 6: Griff and Dylan continue their dispute as they begin to remove their tops. High above, Lydia is suspended in the air, surrounded by long swirling tresses of hair. Dylan: That means us, wolfboy! Lydia: I'll get a bats eye view! Griff: Easy kitten, don't go coughing up furballs!

Will cat and dog be able to set aside their bickering and catch the Elmwych Vampire? More importantly, how does Lydia keep the tangles out of her hair? (suggestions welcome)

And hey, while I've got my soapbox out this morning, there is absolutely no excuse for the percentage of women creators on top books in mainstream comics still being this low.

Love the Lollywood sign!

"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat. People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

Wow! Thanks for showcasing Elmwych and the kind words!

Thanks for the post, I love that presentation by Banes!

I wonder if we should promote our webcomics like AI actually. My comic is here whether you like it or not. you better get on board or you'll be left behind. Yes it's shit but it's existence renders you obliged to consume it!

Just a reminder:

It's YOUR social media feed. You can block anyone you want for any reason you want and you don't owe anyone an explanation.

Your time and attention are priceless. That's why so many people want to claim it for themselves.

Don't give it to anyone you don't want to.

Elmwych Comic P.46 Panel 1: David, Lydia and Amy are walking by a chainlink fence at night, with trees and hedges behind it. David (caption): So tonight we visit Elmwych Cemetery again, hoping to uncover the strange entity Amy encountered there. David: You've seen my attempts at magic Amy! How come you never told me you were a witch? Are you casting spells and stuff? Amy: Yeah, more or less! Panel 2: Seen from above, the three are walking down a pathway that runs alongside the cemetery. Lydia: Don't be so modest Amy! She can do other things David. David: What kind of things? Lydia: Wellll... Panel 3: Close up of Lydia's face. Lydia: ...she can move dust! Panel 4: As they continue along the path they pass a missing persons poster attached to the fence, with the faces of Chris Clench and his two friends. David: Ha!ha! so that's why you like sharing a flat with Amy? She does all the spring cleaning! Panel 5: At the end of the pathway, Griff and Dylan are waiting for them. David: Well this is it! Are we all ready? Griff: Never more! Panel 6: Close up on Griff looking enthusiastic, as Dylan sneers in the background. Griff: Time to let the wolf see the rabbit!

Idle banter in this Elmych update. I can't promise any actual rabbits on the next page , it's a humourous aside, a turn of phrase, a casual slice of idiomatic speech.
Sorry, I know how much you want rabbits.

Impish cartoon self-portrait of the artist, a fellow with sticky-up hair and round glasses, shouts at you: You NEVER NEED TO FOLLOW ME BACK!!! I want to follow your posts, not insinuate myself into your life! BUT IF YOU DO FOLLOW BACK AND WE DEVELOP A NICE RAPPORT OVER TIME, THAT WOULD BE TOTALLY CHILL.

Reissuing this as a point of etiquette

YouTube video by Farm to Taber "Everyone Drank Raw Milk!" No They Didn't

When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine,"

That's... usually not the case!

In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using.

We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that?
