I haven't talked about this publicly, but last year I was the victim of identity theft. My likeness and identity were stolen and used for nefarious purposes by a person from a foreign country.

That person's name is Chip Zdarsky.

So. My partner suffered an accident that resulted in very significant injuries. While he is, thank christ, alright in the broadest sense, I am now an amateur RN/dog minder/kid chauffeur, so! I've restocked some prints to help keep us in pizza and pain meds.

I have no idea what this looks like in the stadium, but the camera-work and production design on this Bad Bunny show on TV is off the charts.

Did this fun commission towards the end of 2025. Simon and Kirby’s creation The Guardian and my Gangbuster! I created GB because DC didn’t let us use Guardian when I first started drawing Superman. They had the Kirby stuff planned for the first post reboot Superman annual.
