I uploaded a new page for Center World!

Moving forward, I'm just going to post singles or batches of pages whenever, since steady schedules are difficult for me to keep. I want to continue exploring with more stories in the future as well.

Read the full story at: thecenterworld.com
Comic Page Panel 1: A blue screen with a number 18 in the lower right. Panel 2: A woman appears on the monitor: When can we expect communication with earth to be established again? Panel 3: Darzi appears: We haven’t established a firm timeframe; however, it shouldn’t take more than a year. Panel 4: Darzi (continued): The good news is that humanity now has a sustainable population on this side. In the meantime— Heather, Triss, and Quizzik stand in a diner, in front of the same TV. Quizzik: OUR work is done.

Went to the opening of the Ghost in The Shell exhibit in Tokyo, on now until April.
A nighttime aerial view of a futuristic coastal megacity from Ghost in the Shell (1995), with dense skyscrapers, illuminated bridges, and waterways stretching toward a glowing skyline under a dark, cloudy sky. Original artwork at the exhibit in tokyo Rough animation sketch from Ghost in the Shell showing a man (Batou) falling backward while holding a handgun, drawn in loose pencil lines with construction marks visible. Detailed pencil drawing from Ghost in the Shell inside a military vehicle, holding a rifle, surrounded by mechanical panels and cables. Urban cityscape from Ghost in the Shell depicting tall, weathered Hong Kong styled apartment buildings with scaffolding, signage, and dense industrial detail under a hazy sky.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: the stage of the Jerry Springer show with an audience watching. A peeved looking person sits in a chair. Jerry Springer stands next to him and says, “we have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the incensed audience boos loudly. Panel 3: security attempts to break out a fistfight between the onstage guest and a prehistoric fish, the Tiktaalik.

My map for Quake Brutalist Jam III: The Smell of Sunshine.
Video game screenshot from Quake Brutalist Jam III. An underground level of a sunlit enclosed courtyard. Everything is made of concrete and hanging vines are visible. The ground level of the same courtyard. A multi-tiered bunker-like structure with angular shapes stands in the middle, above the pit. Soldiers stand guard. A much bleaker scene; the cavernous interior of some sort of megastructure. Bluish fog wraps around a tiered structure and hints at the forms of distant pipes. No sky is visible. A substructure, reminiscent of a parking garage, but with unclear purpose. Short flights of stairs connect several levels lit by regularly-spaced overhead flourescent lights, and there are various sizes of blue storage containers in the background.

My first feature of the year explores the phenomenon of Quake Brutalist Jam for @theguardian.com, and how the FPS mapping community is keeping old-school level design alive. www.theguardian.com/games/2026/j...
‘It’s the underground Met Gala of concrete murderzone design’: welcome to the Quake Brutalist Game Jam
Quake Brutalist Jam began as a celebration of old-fashioned shooter level design, but its latest version is one step away from being a game in its own right

Madi tries to look out a frosted over window “it’s January 18th and I have to head into Minneapolis for a comic show. I’m regretting this choice almost as soon as I wake up. It’s so cold that my windows have frosted over and I can’t see out of them. When I check my app it says it’s about -5 degrees f “ Madi drives with the heat blasting “ I bundle up in as many layers as I have. Double scarves, winter gloves and wool lined boots. I clear frost off the car in record time, it takes me seconds, not minutes. Even so, my fingers are numb before I even get into my car, it takes 15 minutes with the heat blasting before I can feel them again” Madi trudges through the snow “I don’t have to walk terribly far after I park. But the snow is needed like and painful. By the time I get to the door I’m crying and snotty.” Madi is crying Madi looks at her phone, a man is being dragged by ice from his home wearing nothing but a short blanket hastily covering his shoulders but not his chest or legs, boxers, and crocs “ I finally get home and check into the news. Immediately I see a photo of a man not far from me who was taken from his home by ice today. They didn’t let him out on any clothes before dragging him out into the cold. And I think about frosted windows, numb fingers, and needle like snow”

I think a lot about how Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex repeatedly referred to the US as the American Empire and Ive taken to calling it that in my head for a long time now without thinking twice about it.
