It's about time the cat litter brands hired a real artist for their redesign. I can't wait to see what you bring to Fresh Step. Congrats!

I checked off a bucket list item last weekend at @horroronmain.bsky.social by hosting a couple panels including a comics panel! I was super nervous about it, but happy with how they turned out. Looking forward to the event next year.

This is what Austin Theory reminded me of tonight.

Watched The Beekeeper yesterday. Jason Statham didn't once say "buzz buzz." The movie was ridiculous with a lot of stretches but the biggest one was a rich politician who decided to tell the truth instead of hiding a scandal. Absolute Sci fi territory.

Slice(s) of Life has officially gone to print! This comic is a labor of love and it's taken a long time to get to this point, but I am so happy with what we've put together with friends. @theothermarioc.com, @mattmanbegins.bsky.social, @theilluminerdi.bsky.social and I are pumped! In Pizza We Trust

I caught up with Clay Adams on ComixLaunch about making the jump from comic reviewer to comic writer, how ComixLaunch helped with my last Kickstarter, and one fun tip about promoting projects. Give it a listen! www.comixlaunch.com/session505

I'm playing Batman: The Enemy Within and really enjoying it. The story is great and it jumps right into life-and-death situations, forcing you to make hard decisions. That being said, I get a ton of anxiety when it says "[Character] will remember that." I instantly wonder if that's good or bad.

Working my way through @davidharper.bsky.social's Best of 2024 list and really enjoying them. In Utero, Nights, and The Library Mule of Cordoba were completely off my radar and I learned about them on this episode of Off Panel. sktchd.libsyn.com/offpanel478-...

I'm only 9% into Wake Up and Open Your Eyes by @claymcleod.bsky.social and this is absolutely riveting. Can't wait to see where this goes.

Digging into the data and coming up with a bunch of self doubt in this week's newsletter. This helped remind me why I'm writing comics in the first place. jamesfergcomics.substack.com/p/saving-the...

Putting A REAL SLOBBERKNOCKER together has been a blast and my favorite part has been seeing how much Dan continues to up his game with every panel. It's been a pleasure to see how he is on an entirely new level with this book. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jam...

Big shout out to @pacillustration.bsky.social for returning to A REAL SLOBBERKNOCKER with another awesome variant cover as an homage to Pro Wrestling Illustrated. He hit with this idea on the 1st issue and knocked our socks off. Can't wait to see what he does with the 3rd and final issue.

"Honey, could you pick up toothpaste at the store?"
"Sure. What kind or flavor?"
"I don't know. Nothing fancy."
"Got it."

Thoughts on the dry spell of the mid-Kickstarter campaign for A Real Slobberknocker as well as pushing through frustration on a new story in my latest newsletter. jamesfergcomics.substack.com/p/frustratio...

Supernatural coming of age, horror, comedy, romance? Other genres? Set in an alternate version of the US in the early 2000s. Vampires are real.. Monsters are real. This kid is trying to get through life. Great dialogue. Cool concepts.

#ComicsDNA This is a mix of comics that stayed with me from my youth (Spider-Man), those that got me back into the medium (Preacher, Astro City), and one I loved as a reviewer (Nailbiter).

Dan has been sharing behind the scenes shots of A Real Slobberknocker #2 on Instagram. I really like this panel. Jake is pissed. He's going through some shit in the ring and he's tired of it. Dan keeps upping his game with this book. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jam...

The Technodrome from the original TMNT animated series toys from Playmates. I had the sewer, the pizza shooter, and a slew of Turtles and enemies, but I never got the Technodrome. The one time I got to play with one at a family friend's party, we had to leave right after it came out.
