@jamesthefourth.bsky.social just really want to say: I kinda hate you because you’re too fucking good. The Deviant was so good and compelling straight through, never caught a single twist. Seriously you’re too fucking good at this, my hate comes from jealousy. My love comes from pure admiration.

@ryannorth.ca I never knew that a flying flaming t-Rex was the idea that was missing from my life. A perfect concept and it’s just a few panels!?

Going through the @comiclab.bsky.social pro tips archives while in the waiting room of a hospital (everything is ok) and going over episodes 368 & 369 to help me tighten up the stories I’ve been working on. Thanks Comic Sifus.

Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor meeting River Song would result in the greatest indenting flood of flirtatious chaos, I’d love to see it happen.

From an interview with guitarist Al Di Meola: “You can have these giant pauses in music and that’s where the drama is” And wow, what a perfect way to describe the expressive use of whitespace in comics. (Cont)

Drive is one of the greatest science fiction sagas of all time. I currently rank it well above the Dune series.
davekellett.bsky.social Dave Kellett @davekellett.bsky.social · Apr 10
New DRIVE is up! The emperor comes up for judgment!
PANEL 1: THE CAPTAIN, and older human woman with glasses; ORLA, a younger human woman with curly hair; CAPH, a large dinosaur-like Grasskan; CUDDOW, a muppet-like alien with 6 eyes; NANDO, a human young man; and SKITTER, a squirrel-like alien with a mohawk; sit at a table with CAPTAIN TILL, a large Grasskan in a cloak. The scene is warm and inviting, while the snow falls outside a large window. CAPTAIN: Captain, this meal has been delightful, than you! TILL: Indeed this “mint” was a wonderful suggestion. We do not have this plant in the Grasskan Emp— PANEL 2: Over TILL’s shoulder, we see THE CAPTAIN motion apologetically. TILL: Correct. We DID NOT HAVE this plant int he Grasskan Empire. CAPTAIN: I am so sorry for your loss. PANEL 3: Close up on TILL’s profile, as she scowls. TILL: Thank you, Captain. The Vinn were an…UNYEILDING foe. One I fear we will face gain. PANEL 4: Close up on THE CAPTAIN. CAPTAIN: Well if so, you won’t face them ALONE. This time. PANEL 5: TILL’s face fills the frame. TILL: Indeed we share an oath to the same Emperor. To that end: may I ask what an esteemed captain like yourself MAKES of him, as a leader? PANEL 6: THE CAPTAIN motions to ORLA as she takes a bite of food. ORLA looks a little shocked. CAPTAIN: Well…I imagine Orla will choke on her Hornhawk, but I’ll answer you HONESTLY. PANEL 7: Behind the shoulders of THE CAPTAIN and ORLA, we see TILL in the background. ORLA watches THE CAPTAIN talk, a little surprised. CAPTAIN: I would best describe him as…CUNNING. A cunning narcissist who is plagued by doubt. PANEL 8: THE CAPTAIN alone in frame, continues to talk carefully but honestly. CAPTAIN: But that same doubt, and that same self-interest, might yet be put to use. Having set himself as the Empire’s savior, he is desperate not to lose to the Continuum. And that is an energy that might be steered toward good. PANEL 9: TILL rests her elbows on the table as she continues to listen. TILL: “Steered”?

Since finding out my memoir lost its publisher in the Diamond Fallout I've put it up for pre order in my Big Cartel shop. So far we've sold EIGHTY copies. That is huge for someone like me. Diary Comics have sold 74 copies, all together. I am so grateful 🙏 THANK YOU. More than I could have hoped for!

Three comic volumes: one memoir and 2 diary comic compilations. All are available right now from my big cartel shop, linked in my bio. 💚

COMIC CREATORS! Please by all that is good an holy: put page numbers in your books! It makes it much easier to cite things when using them in academic papers! When a key argument or example can be found in a graphic novel having to count pages is rough.
You don’t know how or what can be used.

My wife asked me to slow down on the comic buying last night. Then these show up today. @davekellett.bsky.social it’s a nice looking stack of books. I’d like to pitch that Em is the bestest over Gloria as she’s most likely not going to murder me when she sees this.

America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.
X post by Amy Nixon (@texasrunnerDFW ), featuring a verification badge. The post reads, "The USA is weird now. If you're a person under 30, you probably think it's normal but that's because you don't know. Trust me. It's weird."

NEW COMIC: Crisp, cold glass o’ water

======================

(Also! Pals! Just *3 DAYS LEFT* to get the ANATOMY OF DOGS! And thanks to unlocked stretch goals, it now comes with three of my e-books, free!—>
www.kickstarter.com/projects/sma...
PANEL 1: SHELDON, a ten-year old boy with huge glasses, drinks a glass of water, while ARTHUR, a yellow duck, stands next to him. ARTHUR: Did you know the water you’re drinking was peed out by dinosaurs? PANEL 2: The conversation continues, SHELDON squints his eyes. ARTHUR: Or gosh! MULTIPLE dinosaurs over the 180 million years they existed! PANEL 3: Close up on SHELDON, excitedly giving an in-depth explanation. SHELDON: No no no. Photosynthesis would’ve taken six molecules of water, combined it with six molecules of carbon dioxide, and generated one glucose molecule and six oxygen molecules. And poof! Your dinosaur water CEASES TO EXIST. PANEL 4: The conversation with ARTHUR continues. SHELDON scowls. ARTHUR: Hmph. Sounds to me like a lotta mumbo jumbo… from a dude absolutely plastered on Dino pee. ——— Want 5,000 more comics like this?
