Cartoonist. I draw comics
I really do think this is an excellent metaphor for the moment.

I do occasionally use Adobe Photoshop for a specific effect after I have finished and scanned the page in, but otherwise I have no interest in drawing digitally.

Remember when Bone was in Disney Adventures magazine? I certainly do, so I dug into the story behind its time there, talking with @jeffsmithsbone.bsky.social, @comixace.bsky.social, Marv Wolfman, and @cliffchiang.bsky.social about the how it all came together and its impact.

It's fun. It's silly. It's adventurous. It's caring.
It always makes me happy.
I first got the full Bone collection in college and was blown away by the art and storytelling! @jeffsmithsbone.bsky.social is an absolute legend. His rat creatures are fun villains you meet early on, and I love them so, so much.

Met this amazing leaf bug when I opened up the shop this morning.
Obviously I dubbed it Ted, in homage to @jeffsmithsbone.bsky.social
Iโm choosing to believe that meeting (and not stepping on Ted) means I am about to be part of an epic adventure.
The work of @jeffsmithsbone.bsky.social and Rafael Rosado always make me feel positive energy. They commit wholly to projects and characters.
@natepowell.bsky.social and @anntelnaes.bsky.social make me feel like I'm seeing things anew, but they speak truth from deep wells of emapthy and observation.

Thereโs a direct connection between @jeffsmithsbone.bsky.socialโs Bone appearing in Disney Adventures and my mom advocating for comics in her school.
I always wondered how Disney decided to inject an indie juggernaut into its massive readership. @davidharper.bsky.social tracked down this history:
"Pogo" by Walt Kelly The cover shows Pogo holding a suitcase and umbrella and raising his hat to the reader.
Today's random Pogo paperback. The very first one, from 1951.
