These stories have existed for the entire history of comics. Creators deserve a stake in characters they create (yes even legacy characters).

Also design work in comics is very often treated as an 'invisible' part of the page rate. That's $0 earned to create a new character from scratch -

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

Farage is in Falkirk today, no doubt supported by the racist rabble who have been intimidating people at "protests" for some time. These groups make spurious claims of wanting to protect women and children despite many of their leaders holding domestic abuse convictions. Disgusting racist frauds.

Farage in Scotland: it should make our collective stomachs heave that this repulsive and dangerous extremist has come to spread his poison in our country. Anyone who supports this man is morally in the gutter

for my MA thesis someone had the GREAT idea to write and pencil a 380pg OGN.

i’m probably 70% of the way through but it’s had to take a backseat to some INCREDIBLE opportunities the last 2 yrs.

very much using the end of this year to tie up some loose ends and retool/format/do...

I don't think the GC crowd have reckoned with the fact that people might recognise a group that goes around threatening every women's org with massive lawsuits for not conforming to rigidly conservative limits on womanhood as profoundly misogynistic

As part of my MRes research, I used comics practice as philosophical enquiry, drawing from Albert Camus and Irish Mythology to create my own lore. The comic is called 'Thy Will Be Done' and it is available to buy on my etsy right now to download or in print (shipping only to UK & Ireland rn).

Everyone at 2000 AD is deeply saddened to hear that artist Adam Stone has passed away. Adam was the winner of 2024's @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social Talent Search and his first work in 2000 AD was only just published in July.

Our thoughts go out to his family & friends https://adamstone.muchloved.com/

Character concept art for Morgan from my comic ‘Thy Will Be Done’ in her human form. Maybe this version of her will get to make an appearance in a later instalment 👀

Let the dead die

This isn't a ghost, this isn't an ancestral spirit

This is a monster wearing your loved one's skin

Your ancestors live within you, in the love they showed you and the guidance they gave you and the life they built for you

Don't give these bastards money to commodify their memory

Artists have always loved to sketch!

Sketch of a sparrow from Egypt dated c. 1479–1458 BC.

Some 3,500 years ago in Egypt, artists used small flakes of limestone as sketchpads!

MMA excavations 1922-23, Deir el-Bahri. 📷 The Met www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

Met Museum photo of an Ancient Egyptian artist’s painting of a swallow on a flake of limestone, dated to the New Kingdom, Dynasty 18, joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III, c. 1479-1458 BC. The sparrow stands in profile with head to the right. It is delicately painted with a pinkish body. The outline and details are highlighted in a reddish/brown pigment. It’s legs, eye, and beak are painted black. Limestone flake dimensions H. 6.6 cm x W. 10.6 cm. This may have been a practice drawing of the sparrow hieroglyph which was used for words meaning ‘small’, ‘poor’, or ‘bad’. Egyptian artisans who decorated tombs and temples made practice sketches on flakes of limestone which are known by egyptologists as ostraca (singular: ostracon). Sometimes the drawings were used as a template when transferring an image to the wall of a tomb or a temple. Limestone flakes were readily available for this purpose as by-products of the construction of temples and rock-cut tombs. A number of ostraca were recovered at Deir el-Bahri during the 1922-23 MMA excavations.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️

toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf
The cover spread from a one page zine printout. The left (back cover) features images of a scale and gavel, with notes on First Amendment and filming rights, and the advice to “shut the fuck up.” On the right is the cover, a megaphone with the title text “PROTEST SAFELY.” Behind it are faceless protestors. The subtitle notes, “A brief collection of tips from around the internet.” A spread from one page zine printout. On the left is an illustration of a protestor with the title “What to Wear,” including a helmet, goggles, ear plugs, gloves, a mask, a backpack, and layers/long sleeves/pants. Each have additional notes explaining their use. On the right is “What to Bring,” featuring illustrations of a backpack, money, water bottles, a mask, a granola bar and bag of trail mix, a first aid kit, folded shirt and pants, and an ID, with “DIY Defense” listed underneath it showing one protestor using a luggage case, one holding a trash can lid, and one using an open umbrella as a shield. A spread from one page zine printout. On the left is “Protect Your Identity,” advising to cover up identifying features, avoiding photography of protesters, deactivating biometric phone-unlocking tools, and writing emergency contact and counsel numbers on your arm. On the right is “Be Like Water,” the motto of the 2019 Hong Kong protests, and the text “BEWARE THE BAIT” with images of a palette of bricks and a masked man holding a crowbar toward a protestor with a sign, “Psst, free crowbar?” encouraging the reader not to engage with traps and undercover agents. A spread from one page zine printout featuring the hazards of protest opposition, including tear gas, rubber bullets, and LRAD sound cannons and flash bangs. Caution tape images accompany the text explaining the dangers of each, how to flush out eyes that have been maced/etc, and how to extinguish a gas canister with a traffic cone.
