After 22 years as a letterer, I now only have enough regular lettering work to keep me busy for 2 days per week. So if you’re staffing a new project, please keep me in mind as your letterer! Or request me via your editor! Recent clients include DC, Marvel, BOOM, Dark Horse, 2000AD, etc.
Thank you 🙏🏻

New Jump series today: ALIEN HEADBUTT, your typical pro wrestler v. aliens battle manga. Debut serialization by Akira Inui. Bananas fun in this pilot chapter. Hope it sticks around but me liking a new Jump strip has a 50% rate of being cancelled early. On the Viz and Shueisha apps.

I have a suspicion that a lot of things are potentially going to happen quite fast at this point. If more competent MPs don't see that they have an opportunity to get Starmer to resign and reset Labour with three years left in power before a GE then they really shouldn't be in politics.

Really glad Usazki has another hit series after her first, ACT-AGE, got cancelled because the writer of that was a sex pest. Really charming series. Check it out. 2/2

What's it like to create during a crisis? I talked with members of the Minneapolis comic community like @trungles.com, @zandercannon.bsky.social, K. Woodman-Maynard, and more about making comics during ICE's occupation, the ICE Out Comics initiative, and more.

Stop judging yourself by the standards of evil men. Stop determining your goals according to theirs. There is joy and importance and meaning in the world, and their world is not the world.
