Okay. I need a boost here.
Looking for artists.
We're talking about some potential comic book style art and/or concept art for the #iHunt film. We're privately funding development, so budget isn't Hollywood.
I want queer and/or nonwhite artists. I want cool styles.

Absolute Batman warmup
@ssnyder1835.bsky.social and @nickdragotta.bsky.social are killing it on that book. Feels good to be a monthly Batman reader again.

Lil' Burgers was the one comic that immediately caught my attention at the fair and MAN IS IT SPECIAL!!! If you wanna feel like a teen in 2000s discovering absurdist shonen manga that sucks you right in, ABSOLUTELY go give it a read before the fair is over!!
Last 3 hours of the @shortboxcomicsfair.bsky.social , means that it's almost a wrap on Lil' Burgers!
Big thanks to Zainab for bringing me on for the fair! Has been one of the most meaningful (and the single most creatively fulfilling) experiences of my life!

A well deserved break for the GOAT!
SBCF closes today at 8pm UK time!
I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to all the fair artists, and to the wonderful SBCF readership for their support.
After 12+ years of knocking about in comics, I'll be taking a break next year, but hope to be back in 2027.

It feels only right that Batman & Robin: Year One wrapped during October, aka Batober. So, I celebrated the occasion by sharing my 12 favorite drawings the great @chrissamnee.bsky.social did during that run.

A really insightful conversation
Many months ago, Ram hit me up to ask if I'd consider unretiring for one last thing.
I asked him what he had in mind.
He'd decided not to renew at DC, and said he wanted to step away from superheroes, as well as just monthly DM comics.
I thought it over.
I said yes.

This year’s @shortboxcomicsfair.bsky.social lineup is INCREDIBLE. Check it out to find new comics to love. If you’re looking for recs, @nabeelrooshan.bsky.social’s Lil’ Burgers and @paperflan.bsky.social’s A Box Full of Darkness are my faves so far, and great examples of how diverse the Fair is.
