Pinned post - because I've realised I'm more likely to have somebody else's work at the top of my feed than my own.

I like creating stuff. Sometimes that's comics, sometimes it's illustration. Mostly digital, but busting out real-world tools a bit more now.

Currently writing and drawing comics.
Legion, from the X-Men. Zombie astronaut bouncing around on the Moon. 9 panel comic page - an astronaut regaining consciousness in an underground cavern and making his way to his partner's location. The other astronaut seems mesmerised by a bright light. That "six fan arts" thing that was floating around the internet a while back. I got other people to pick them for me and ended up with: The stalk (Saga), a Cadbury's Smash robot (you'll have to be an old fart to get that reference), The Spectre, Dorothy (Wizard of Oz), Zed (Zardoz) and Quint (Jaws).

Oh, I wonder what this is? It feels pretty heavy, but I don’t recall buying anything (not that unusual).
Large package I just found in my porch

I occasionally like to remind people that being wrong isn’t nearly as important as how you choose to deal with being wrong.

Equally, if you freely offer up an unconditional apology, because you know you were wrong - and that isn’t good enough - that’s on the other person, not you.

You’re welcome.

I haven’t done Halloween since the pandemic - but here’s a few of my favourites.

Maybe I’ll come out of retirement next year.
Walter White Halloween outfit. Yellow hazmat suit, glasses, goatee, respirator/air filter and shaved head. It was a big deal to shave my head at the time because I actually had hair. Terminator Halloween prosthetic that looks like a large portion of my face has been blown off, showing the metal skull underneath. Red LED where my eye should be. I was wearing the battery that powered it right on top of my eye - like an idiot. God only knows what I thinking… Chest burster from Alien Halloween outfit. Lots of parents tutted at the bloody gore - and at least one child refused the sweets. Result! The Corinthian Halloween prosthetic (mouths with teeth where my eyes should be). I could see surprisingly well out of the gaps between the upper and lower teeth.

With the release of 'The Savage Sword of Conan' #11 mere weeks away, featuring my first full 48 page epic story, here's a sneaky peek at the lettering proofs for the first four pages...

The universe can be weird at times. I was going through a big box of paperwork last night - stuff I hadn’t touched for years - and found the original handprint I used for a cover. This morning, that exact cover turned up in my Facebook memories…🤷‍♂️
Inky handprint from 2015/16. I made it to use in a cover for Self Storage issue 1. Found in a box of old papers I was sorting out last night. The finished image for the cover of Self Storage issue 1. It’s a blue roller door with the number 83 sprayed on it, with a bloody handprint over the top. This image showed up in my Facebook memories this morning.

Decided to up my game. Game and fortune will surely follow.

(I’m good with just fortune, to be honest)
Superman and Batman as stick figures. I may have peaked.

Found while tidying: 26? 27? Something like that.
Old passport-sized photo. Probably around 26-27. Very short, dark brown hair. What hasn’t fallen out is shockingly white now. The very epitome of youth being wasted on the young.

Work I did for a thing. Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (1922) - reimagined film poster.

Reimagined film poster for "Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens" (1922). A blood-soaked Count Orlok is surrounded by vampire bats, the full Moon shining behind them. The bats heading right towards the viewer.

Right in the feels - for reasons I don’t feel like talking about today.

I often hear (from massive bores, obviously) that suicide is the easy, or coward’s way out.

Shockingly, suicide probably isn’t anyone’s first option. It’s where people turn when they think they’ve exhausted every option.

Little hand drawn animation and banjo theme I made. It's been a year since my brother's passing, it's hard to type stuff so l'll just let the video speak for itself. Thank you for watching. Keep going, enjoy the sandwiches.

Not my best Batman, but it’ll have to do!

Batman, looking all stoic. Bats and lightning behind him. Some very wonky anatomy.

I’ll make this easy for you; here’s pages 1-3 if you want to read #terranomegapage4 head over to www.patreon.com/pjholden it’s FREE!!!
Page 1 Terran omega Four panels, all black. Deep space. Our camera doesn't vary, we are looking at a tumbling space ship, a salvage ship. Panel 1. Behind the ship, In the background is a small thing that looks like a google map pin. Caption: ++REPEAT ++ SALVAGE SHIP RESPOND ++ Panel 2 the ship continues to tumble. The pin is much larger now, about the same mass (if not shape) of the tumbling ship Caption ++SALVAGE SHIP THIS IS BLACK OMEGA ++ PLEASE RESPOND ++ Panel 2 The ship continues to tumble the Black Omega, is now very largely, cropped by the panel, still behind the tumbling ship and obviously larger than it. Caption: Nothing Caption: No response. Ship appears to be dead. Panel 4 The tumbling ship remains, surrounded it now is the centre of the Black Omega, the ship so large it now dwarfs the little scrapyard junker. Caption: But... I am detecting three lifeforms. Caption: I can send a drone...? Page 2 Double page spread. Left hand side a large full page panel. Terran omega floating in space. An armoured heroic looking character carrying a staff of pure light and wearing a helmet that’s a cross between dr fate and galactus. Floating behind here (and where’s she’s flying towards) is a large chunky salvage ship (which is big and blocky and has two very obvious hands for gripping salvage) Terran Omega : "No, I think I'd like to do this myself" Second page has a column of panels. First: Terran omega flying towards a door (she flies gently while standing) Second; her hand reaches towards the door and is cracking with energy Third: her helmet and staff now inside the airlock of the ship Terran: I'm inside Terran: ... Radio: *static* Terran: Hmmm... on my own. Terran: Ok Fourth: she’s walking carefully down a corridor filled with smoke Terran: Now. Let's look around.

Going to bed now but I’d love it if it’s the last thing you do tonight is set up a Patreon account and sub to my Patreon for free so you can see page 4 of Terran Omega. I really had fun drawing it.

Fell down a coronation Street rabbit hole this morning - and watched episodes from 1962, 1972, 1976, 1978 and 1980 on YouTube. I didn’t even watch them in order, so I felt like a time traveller.

Due to PJ being incredibly fast, but time poor and me being incredibly slow, but having a 30 page head start, we’ve worked out that we’ll both be ready to release our efforts at the same time.

It’s like Blur vs Oasis all over again!
