Had fun working that scene into this comic page I made for "Patlabor: The Movie."

Matt Feazell is a mini comics staple in Metro Detroit since 1980 (possibly longer), specifically hailing from good ol' Hamtramck, Michigan.

I'm disappointed seeing @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social promoting a pro-Ai book.

For all the talk of book bans, this is incredibly short sighted on how generative Ai negatively impacts writers, artists, musicians, and people in general.

We should demand better from the ALA.

I have no idea if my posts are being hidden, I just assumed my art and music is so niche, only a handful of people may engage with it. Plus, "likes" don't pay bills.

That said, however, I know people enjoy my resource sharing. Makes me happy to know at least that much can get organic attention.

DTE is teaming up with big AI to raid Michiganders’ wallets, jacking up utility bills so billionaires can power a massive data center that will suck up 25% more power than DTE customers already use. 

Tell me, how does this help the rest of us?

Amid worries data centers powering artificial intelligence could inflate utility bills in Michigan, DTE promises the deal will help with affordability for other customers.

Wisconsin just repelled a data center like this. You can do it too! The movement was largely stuff you can do from home and a few dedicated people standing in an empty field. It's very possible to stop this shit before it starts

@aoc.bsky.social says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody."

Exciting to see Cartoonist Kayfabe hit 100k on Youtube! 🎉

This channel is one of the greatest resources for comic readers and makers. A rich collection of comics' history and knowledge unlike any other.

It is bitter sweet, but very happy it finally happened. 🥲

Michiganders, this is serious business! We're already seeing DTE try to push a new data center through near Ann Arbor and Saline without a chance for public comment! This WILL impact not only our land and water, but our energy bills! SAY NO.

Just as a heads up that Brooklyn, NY, based printer @cartpress.bsky.social, operated by @shanzine.bsky.social and @junimadii.bsky.social, has been added to The Really Huge Comic Book Printer Guide under the "Riso" tab.

The list is always growing with more services to bring your books to life! 📚🖨️✨

I find it hard to believe Adobe would understand why "Ai" is bad branding for the Illustrator logo.

So here is my pitch for a better logo.

Back in my day, AI used to stand for Adobe Illustrator! And we hated that, too!

Im not a Michigan resident anymore but it is my hometown… if you are concerned about AI and especially its fresh water usage make your voice heard!

I've been beyond fortunate enough to be able to collaborate and work with Kyle Murdock over the last couple of years.

Not only is he an amazing client who's a blast to work with, but also a great friend who makes every project we do a lot of fun and reminding me why I love what I do so much!
