Great to get reacquainted with the old seadog. Super stuff from @rapiaghi.bsky.social @robjoneswrites.bsky.social and @rorydraws4.bsky.social Hope Griff isn't "out to sea" for too long

Finally gettkng to the Kickstarter pile. First up - this little gem of a comedic space opera. But with a bit of a kick at the end. Kudos to @chrisbaldie.bsky.social and Michael Park.

Unashamedly biased post the third. Terrific (terrifying) end to the TOMB saga. Great story and script by Ian Mondrick (not on Bluesky ?). Superb artwork by @benjaminaefilby.bsky.social both ably supported by Bennion, Jones, Napier and Makepeace. We are the Pale Horse ?

Unashamedly biased post the second. A fine debut solo collection from @benjaminaefilby.bsky.social Three cautionary tales economically told and superby illustrated.

Unashamedly biased post the first. Superb creepy little tale from @robjoneswrites.bsky.social beautifully illustrated by @benjaminaefilby.bsky.social

Thought Bubble 2025 haul. Credits as I get through them (hopefully finished by November 2026 !)

From the #Kickstarter pile - a fine end to the (current) series from @matthew-hardy.bsky.social @robjoneswrites.bsky.social (two of the nicest chaps in Indie Comics circles) & Co. All 3 issues have been superb.

Your wisdom is in you. You'll be great !

All set up and ready to go. Go see @benjaminaefilby.bsky.social at #thoughtbubble (Bubble Boy Hall,Table C2) and say hello. Lots of quality books to peruse and buy !

Stunning visuals and gripping story as per usual from @simoart.bsky.social A brilliantly realised dystopian world. Really fascinated to see where this goes...

Mmm. Looks like Blackwood Enterprises have either sowed some pretty dodgy seeds or are about to need some pretty strong weedkiller. Plant-centric antics from @robjoneswrites.bsky.social @rapiaghi.bsky.social @matthew-hardy.bsky.social & Co.

TOMB OF THE PALE HORSE - Final Issue & Collected Series The final book in the legendary cosmic horror series. Includes a hardcover collected edition of all four issues + backmatter and more!

Lets get this over the line. 92%funded. You won't regret it. TOMB OF THE PALE HORSE - Final Issue & Collected Series, via @Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/ian...

Been playing around with new layouts and adding new stuff to my website

The strangest acquisition from Thought Bubble 2024. And one of the strangest books I've ever read. The newspaper stories are by turns weird and horrifying. The illustrations by @jwebstersharp.bsky.social are mind-blowing. Truly unique.

A welcome delivery from the pen of @russellmarkolson.bsky.social. Super stuff. And a great, simple back cover that paints a perfect picture.

Revisited this rather excellent gritty crime story by @jordanthomas.bsky.social Chris Matthews and @letteringbear.bsky.social. Just as good as when I first delved into the Mugshots world.

And yet more from the TBub24 stack. This fine horror/ere collection from @rapiaghi.bsky.social, @robjoneswrites.bsky.social and various others was fine (gruesome) entertainment. The two tales with the guy oblivious to, and inadvertently killing, a couple of eldritch threats were standouts for me.

A real favourite from my TBub24 haul. A great (if slightly skewed) take on my favourite comic book character by Ed Pinsent. Y'know sometimes when you stumble across something really special. Well...

A couple of slices of oddness (and a touch of nightmareishness from"Insomnia") from the pen/brush of @danwhite.bsky.social. And looking forward to more Cindy & Biscuit...

Another great episode of Wind in he Willows with added chemicals and firepower by @chrisaldhous.bsky.social and Oliver Harud. Yes, from the TBub24 stack.

Another one from the TBub24 backlog. The King is dead (well, nabbed through a portal actually), long live The King (to sort those pesky aliens).

From the TBub24 pile. A fine visceral (and funny) tale in here from @davecook.bsky.social and @davidcousens.bsky.social

More TBub24 catching up. This time a stack of goodies from @theahmedraafat.bsky.social and Co. I particularly like the Halftones collection and the Jerry Robinson hommage.

TBub24 / Patreon catch-up. Another super instalment to the Gateway City saga from @russellmarkolson.bsky.social - and just take a look at that cover ! The prose story in this volume wasn't too shabby either.

Last TBub24 catch up for now. A nice little Flash Gordon yarn in here by @jordanthomas.bsky.social and @russellmarkolson.bsky.social

And again with the TBub24 back catalogue. Great (vicious) ending to the Hardboiled Heart arc. It really did what it said on the tin. Kudos as always to @dftaylor.bsky.social

More Tbub24 catching up. Great to get reacquainted with Mr Automatic. The usual high standard, high concept spy-jinks from @fraserc69.bsky.social @jamescorcoran78.bsky.social and Colin Bell

Catching up on TBub24 haul (at long last). This book collecting some of the late Chris Reynolds' work is superb. Impossible to categorise. Extremely odd and slightly disturbing but beautifully, sparsely illustrated. Nicely done @darkandgolden.bsky.social

Super who & why dunnit with a twist by Messrs @rdouek.com and @russellmarkolson.bsky.social. From TBub24 no less !
