All I (you? us?) want for 2026 is — 🎈💥
Panel 1/4: Me as my character mascot is trapped between massive balloons scribbled with the letters “AI” all over. Caption text: Only thing I… I want *nngh* for 2026 * gasp* is — Panel 2/4: A right hand emerges with a needle puncturing the AI labeled balloon. Sound fx: “tick” Panel 3/4: BOOOOOOOOOOM! Need I say more.

COMIC: What Artists Do
PANEL 1: A black woman with a grey streak in her curly hair, stands at a canvas on an easel, holding a paint bush. Narration text: PAINTER WOMAN: Give me a canvas and I will lift your imagination! PANEL 2: A latino man with thinning grey hair and a thick grey mustache, holds a book open. Narration text: AUTHOR MAN: Give me a page, and I will transport your soul! PANEL 3: A young red headed woman sits ona stool, wearing a plaid shirt and holding a guitar. Narration text: MUSICIAN WOMAN: Give ma a microphone, and I will fill your heart! PANEL 4: A portly man with long, stringy brown-grey hair, wearing denim overalls without a shirt, holds a finger in the air while motioning to his computer screen, where an image of Darth Vader is shown. Vader is holding up two thumbs up, and has 6 nipples down his front, protruding like that one terrible Batman costume. Narration text: A.I. ARTIST Man: Give me two server farms powered by a hydroelectric dam, and Imma generate a Vader with six nipples. ——— Want 5,000 more comics like this?

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

So yeah, I also made this. But decided to take it with eyes closed. Luck of the draw.

And yes, I'm hopeful for so many things I'm working hard on to bear fruit in 2026. So damn sure it fits. 🍀
Screenshot of Merriam-Webster post on Bluesky: "Take a screenshot of this GIF and whichever new word you land on is your word for 2026". Highlighted word is "hopeful".

Not sure how im gonna manage yet but one of my key purposes for 2026 is to make at least one analog piece per month, both to take a much needed break from digital and to have hard evidence I don’t need to prompt my drawings, as if :P

In a world dominated by AI & disinformation, I expect we will see a major pendulum swing culturally. People will crave authenticity and reality over deep fakes and conspiracist lies

Non-obscure choice I know but for me Dire Straits’s Money For Nothing is the quintessential MTV video. Not just for mentioning MTV directly in the lyrics but also because of its then-revolutionary computer graphics —something previously unseen anywhere really.

Este año '¡Astrid!' por fin vio la luz y me hace MUY FELIZ ver lo mucho que está gustando. Hasta me escribió un padre que se lo compró a sus hijos y luego lo leyó él y acabó llorando 😭
Ha sido el año de retomar animación y empezar nuevos proyectos que espero poder desarrollar en 2026 ❤

Well after a tumultous and rather blah Christmas (how does panic buying a fridge sound to you?) Here's finally an #artvsartist for 2025. Much of what I've done this year won't likely be revealed until the next, however. But I've been busy. 😅
My "Art versus artist" sample of 2025. Clockwise from top: My OCs Daniel, Elias and Susana on their new design revisions, a comics page of a project I still have under wraps, cover and page of Biscuit Birdies, published on Kids Comics Unite's Let's Go Anthology in 2025, another cover piece for a still secret project, Easter and Turtle Bunny arguing, yours truly in mascot form.

Je suis en train de terminer mon gros récapitulatif de 2025 et j'aime toujours aller voir ceux des années précédentes pour voir où j'étais à la même période. Je dessine un doodle par infolettre par mois et après quatre ans, j'en ai une couple de pas pires. Voici ceux de 2023 et 2024:

This strip started as a riff on classic ’80s G.I. Joe PSAs. I needed kids to “learn the lesson,” so I reached out to Tauhid Bondia about using Miles and Kevin from Crabgrass. He kindly said yes! I colored it to mimic ’80s cel animation: grain, shadows, painted backgrounds, & am pretty happy with it.

The 70s. Termite Terrace is closed. Its residents either dead, retired, or moved on to other projects. But their creations, the Looney Tunes, lived on in some form or another to become inescapable cultural icons. This is the story of Bugs Bunny and pals and their legacy.

Fred Schroeder and @davekellett.bsky.social 's Stripped documentary featured quite a number of "last printed issue" moments of American newspapers thus ending an era for comics/cartoonists, most have had to reinvent themselves ever since. And nothing was ever going to be the same. 🥲

Our photographer Alex Kormann captured the exact moment the presses stopped for the last time in Minneapolis, ending a 158 history of locally printed newspapers.
