THE FLYERS NEED TO DO THIS WITH GRITTY

This is so up there with one of the greatest things I've ever seen in sports

Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”

the library bought it.

which in turn means that the community bought it.

In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

Thank you!! I'm really excited to share them with everyone!

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

a couple of t shirt designs.

And lastly some of the logos I've done the last couple years and some merch because I like to design for that too time to time.

One of my biggest skill gaps as an artist is being able to think three-dimensionally. It means I am overly reliant on reference and can't extrapolate small changes from imagination.

So I'm doing exercises like this- where I draw an outfit from ref and then draw again from imagination at a new angle

My most woke comics opinion is that you don’t need to be “good” at drawing in any capacity to make them, as long as the reader understands what they’re seeing the way you *want* them to understand it, then you are successfully cartooning

"one day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this"

Thank you! I've been wanting to make one for a bit but wasn't sure how to go about it, but I finally figured everything out haha. Should be my last poster for 2025!

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

The New York Times **HAD EMAILS IN ITS POSSESSION** tying Donald Trump directly to Jeffrey Epstein's global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy –– in the middle of a 2016 election where a global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy was a HUGE topic –– and they didn't publish one word it for a decade.

Comic book page original art for a detective comics title splash page by the great Alex Toth. At the very top you see some lovely small hand lettering by Toth introducing his story and then a little below that you see in much bigger hand lettering into a logo sorta. DEATH FLIES THE HAUNTED SKY with a skull making the little open space in A. Below that you see batman's cape flying up into the above DEATH FLIES... part with BATMAN handwritten in a big logo type way across cape. Below cape you see back of batman's body as he jumps through air with a baton attached to rope flying around him. Old school dog fighter jet coming towards him. It's just incredible. Toth showing off tbh and I love it.

Alex Toth.

Strong contender for greatest title page ever imo.

Every month I pretend Wizard Magazine is still publishing monthly issues so that I may mail in a decorated envelope to their Magic Words letter art contest.

This month, November, I’ve submitted K-Pop Demon Hunters!

And what do you know? It’s been selected as Envelope Of The Month! Wowee!

Portrait of a satyr with golden ochre horns hiding amongst a thicket of holly leaves with a few red berries amidst them. His sweat beads and drips down his face while hot breath pants from his ruby lips and turns to vapor in the cold air

Winter always makes me think of a satyr, once joyous and drunkenly reveling through warm summer nights, now fleeing the hunter’s arrow among the spiny underbrush of dense holly trees, his sweat frozen, matting fur to his face, and his breath turning to vapor as it disappears into the frozen air

I've also seen it do the opposite- it's nice when that happens but you're right, it's so often not the case.

I think this is the curse of humanity I've had to come to grips with. Empathy and social awareness aren't the norm. It's an acquired set of principals that a lot of people will live their whole lives without. You can try to make people understand, but you can't teach empathy to people.

So much of what's happening all boils down to individuals thinking only about them and not thinking the leopard will eat THEIR face. I've always tried to be someone who cares for all...but I think the leopard needs to eat their faces. The only teacher with patience left for these people, is reality.

I know we all have a lot of other things to worry about right now but this is your PSA to get the latest covid booster & flu shot if you haven't already. It takes a couple weeks to build immunity and holidays will be here soon. (Stickers from my shop! shop.breelundberg.com/product/get-...)

Knew I was going to draw #Frankenstein fan art the minute I finished it… as with everything @realgdt.bsky.social LOVED the visual aspect of it and especially The Creature’s design - that mix of grotesque and gentle - which inspired this

The Latest Defense Against ICE: 3D-Printed Whistles Chicagoans are making, sharing, and printing designs for whistles that can warn people when ICE is in the area. The goal is to “prevent as many people from being kidnapped as possible.”

Little EC style retro pulp cover homage for the new FRANKENSTEIN!⚡️

I genuinely thought that's what it was too haha. I feel like you either go that route or reboot the whole thing again. Either option makes total sense to anyone with a pulse except this guy, apparently.
