It's incredibly rare to see such a broad spectrum of the industry speak out against a particular move. This is one of those times....NO ONE in the comics creative community likes this policy.
San Diego Comic-Con will allow AI pieces at this year's Art Show, and it's gone over as well as you might expect.
San Diego Comic-Con under fire for allowing AI at 2026’s Art Show
The convention's organizers stated AI-generated pieces may be displayed but not sold at this year's Art Show.

Got back from a week in the sunshine only to find myself in 1 degree Celsius moving a few hundred kilos of rock.
In the plus side I’ve hammered out a pretty decent outline for a weird 4 issue series.

Really strong break down of the recent Comic Book UK white paper by Chris here. I encourage you all to read it and how it pertains to independent UK comic creators.
I decided, as someone who occasionally gets asked to comment on the state of the UK Comics industry, to read the Comic Book UK White Paper. I encourage everyone who works in comics to read the proposals themselves, and form their own opinions.

Hey,
Every Christmas lots of awesome customers like to show their appreciation to us by giving us things like boxes of chocolates, donuts, cookies, cards and other bits.
This is always appreciated, but, it also costs you guys money, and that's money that could be put to much better use than us.
