Hi, Kris Simon here. I’ve worked for Image, Skybound, IDW and now Mad Cave. You probably know my work from ShadowHawk, Bomb Queen, Morning Glories and if you’re a mobile gamer, Summoners War. And the soon to be Nakama Press manga line in 2025!
I have some old Nancy Drew books I’d love to gift you, Dave…🔎
Ahead of the release of Punk’n Heads from @topshelfcomix.bsky.social and Halloween Boy from @oni-press.bsky.social, cartoonist Dave Baker talks fandom, exchanging letters with Steve Ditko, Buckaroo Banzai, the art of Rudy Nappi, and re-watching Green Room.

I recently read the two issues of Breaking Into Comics the Marvel Way and it's a load of crap, however, this newsletter by @kris10simon.bsky.social (who you should really sub to, the newsletter is very very good) is full of good advice on increasing your odds of breaking in to the industry today.

The weather in LA has been perfect for a very moody Noir-vember!
Noir doesn’t just live in the city… It can stretch across the Montana plains or lurk in a stack of old comics under a flickering desk lamp.
