I’ve been working on post-Los Angeles wildfire products mainly interviewing those who took the early retirement out of the federal gov. Rusty Harris-Bishop recounts his deployment and the work of community involvement coordinators to keep the public informed in LA. #lawildfires #emergencyresponse

That time I caught a woodpecker stealing seeds from a bird feeder for birds half its size.

Oh damn. “False Flag” is at the top 1% of screenplays on the Blacklist. 🤩

You can check out the graphic novel written and drawn by me at redwoodcomics.com/false-flag.

Well, a pleasant surprise from the Blacklist for “False Flag.” The 2nd 8/10 evaluation for the feature screenplay.

If you haven’t already, consider following our campaign on for issue 2 on @wearezoop.bsky.social. Visit zoop.gg/c/false-flag-2. You’ll be able to order issue 1 if you missed it.

When taking on a story as serious as “False Flag,” it’s harder to do some of the “gimmicks” to move a title. Considering a dramatically simple approach to issue 2 with just the single physical or digital copies at a lower threshold…although I do appreciate those out there who appreciate my work.

Working on issue two of “False Flag”while issue one is finishing at the printers. Issue one ships by the end of the week. Get notified when the @wearezoop.bsky.social begins by visiting zoop.gg/c/false-flag-2.

I will say it has been hard to stay positive the last couple of weeks. It’s been busy but I will say I’ve been thankful to the folks sending me and my colleagues words of encouragement.

Looking through my collection of photos and found an old one of my son flipping through songs on an iPhone. They get old too soon.

First post using @flashes.blue. A lone glass table survived the Palisades fire.

Stepped up my #valentinesday game. Eggs on point.

When satire becomes the reality…

Redrew a page that I felt worked better for the story. Will likely add what was here to a later issue (if it works).

I find myself often tinkering with a page air switching pages based on story. Any #comiccreators that do the same?

I am hunkered down getting FALSE FLAG #1 finished by the end of this month. The LA fires have slowed me down as I’m likely to deploy in support of cleanup efforts as part of my day job, so there’s a scramble to get it done and a cover of issue 2 included.

I bought a thing a while back and it finally arrived.
