"Personality, knowledge, and emotion are the three things that need to exist [in art] โ€” and I'm sorry, they don't come from a fucking app." Del Toro sums it up ๐Ÿซก

Happy Fantastic Four weekend! I worked alongside a bunch of great folks on this film quite a bit over the last few years, happy to see it finally out

In a night of pure magic with the incomparable @thejoedante.bsky.social and some gremlin friends, we had the best time at our sold out screening of GREMLINS 2 on 35mm (big shout out to our projectionists who helped make the night so unforgettable)

Bonkers. I have always enjoyed working for WotC in the past but have never been able to make it a priority because the rates are not very competitive. Imagine if an illustrator got to see some sort of royalty in the .01 of a percent range, that still comes out to $20k here

Aside from how dangerous this is, the idea of your car being a *third* workplace is incredibly depressing.

It's apt that corporations/governments divided the internet into SFW and NSFW & are now making it all Safe For Work, because that is the defining frame they want to place on the world--everywhere you go is for Work, not pleasure or art or love or culture. You must always Work for Them, or die.

One reason I hate when people shit on "spandex clad cyclists" is that they are just wearing the clothing that is appropriate for the activity, both in terms of wicking properties and aerodynamics. You don't have to be racing to appreciate gaining some extra speed (and comfort!) on your commute.

I love Thorneโ€™s work on this. Wish there was a collection but what Iโ€™ve seen of his style at this time really speaks to me. I own the original of the last strip featured here. Hanging in my studio. I bought it knowing nothing about Dr. Guy Bennett, I just loved the art.
