I like to snap photos whenever a woman in a movie or TV show reminds me of Samurai Cop

I woke up on Friday to discover that Publishers Weekly named The Heart That Fed as one of their ten best books of 2024. I still can't quite wrap my head around it, but I'm grateful to everyone who helped get me here and honored to be sitting alongside such amazing company.

Huge thanks to the @marvelbythemonth.bsky.social crew for having me by to talk all things The Heart That Fed, not to mention classic Marvel comics and a thoughtful discussion about Britain's vampire laws in 1975 (you'll have to listen to hear our thoughts on that one).

Episode out next week!

Woke up to a nice surprise this morning - #1 in Vietnam War new releases and #2 in biographies and history graphic novels! Thanks so much to everyone who liked, shared, and pre-ordered. Your support means the world and I'm beyond grateful.

After nine years of work, I'm so excited to finally share the cover to THE HEART THAT FED, a graphic memoir about my dad, the Vietnam War, and our relationship as father and son. Coming May 28th from Simon & Schuster. Preorder here:

So much more to come!

More figure drawing catch-up; a 5 and 40 minute pose.

For some reason I stopped posting my figure drawing sketches (the reason is I'm lazy), but I haven't stopped drawing! Time to clear out the backlog, a few at a time.

Great catching up with everyone at RCCC. Never a bad day when you end up with some original @stevelieberart.bsky.social and Brian Stelfreeze art.

Still reeling from last night's Breen.

I admire the chutzpah

At last, my own sealed copy of Batman: Digital Justice

For the "Scott Adams wasn't always like this" crowd (taken from an interview with Tristan Farnon in The Comics Journal #232):

Some of my work from today's figure drawing session. For the first time in a few weeks it felt like I fell into a nice groove.

"We have those at home!" I cry in vain

To inaugurate this account - a hand I really liked from a recent figure drawing session :)
