Pencil sketch of a lanky, humanoid-shaped robot with long, asymmetrical arms that end in either a hand or large pincer claw and backpack motor designs. Also five heads of people with blond hair- two men and three women and a pencil spaceship sketch.

Exploring my my robot design for my sci-fi comic, and testing colors for blond hair. Pencil, watercolor, pen, India ink.

Celebrating Hispanic heritage month

Today marks the start of Hispanic Heritage Month, where we will celebrate and learn about the contributions of Hispanic cultures in the United States.

Fun time last night at Higher Ground in Burlington VT! Short fast songs, long winded stories. Old man yells at cloud. Looks like a sunny drive to Portland ME for my day off. Tuesday: SPACE.

I'm packing as fast as I can! There's something magical about this part of the process. Each label and every box is a connection to someone who helped bring these stories to life. #IndieComics #BehindTheScenes #SmallBusiness

Digital artwork with original characters Aran and Tao as kids, dressed up for Halloween, stopping in front of a house to get candy. Aran, in a Batman costume, stopped on the sideway to pet a cat. Tao, in a ninja turtle costume, went on to knock on the door on the house. From the window of the house a green glowing ghost woman and her ghost cat are looking at the boys 🏀🦀

Transphobic panels from the new Bloodshot #1 where the lead describes young people being allowed to become vampires by their parents using the exact same language that bigots use to describe trans children

I pride myself on my professionalism in comics. I don't talk shit about books I don't enjoy. I am happy when folks get gigs even if I wish I landed them.

So when I say the transphobic bullshit in the new BLOODSHOT #1 comic is disgusting and should have never made it to print. Shameful shit.

Best thing in mainstream comics!

the characters are sitting around a counter top. one asks if the other two are fasting

they both are and they return the question to the first character. the first character is not fasting today because they are on their period. one of the others says he doesn't get break days anymore BECAUSE HE'S TRANS
