sorry, no USA
all four HOME books together The Michaud Bros have broken through with their Science Fiction Opus, HOME. The brothers art styles are clearly related while their narrative themes differ and I like what I've seen and read very much." Bernie Mireault, creator of the JAM and member of the Canadian comic creator hall of fame. Built on a chassis of big ideas and raw human emotions, and rendered in stylish, retro-hip black&white visuals, HOME is pure old-school sci-fi goodness with an unmistakable indie sensibility. Francois Vigneault- TITAN HOME is a gorgeous, deeply thoughtful, and moving meditation on humankind’s endless obsession with the day after tomorrow… our hopes and dreams for which can never really die. I can’t get enough of it. the michaud brothers are magicians. -Jay Lender- Writer/director of Phineas and Ferb, Spongebob Squarepants, and "They're Watching."

Bonjour la France, ceci est pour toi. 🇫🇷🥖

Are there any French comic book authors among my followers?

I'm working on an article about the status of comic book/graphic novel authors - both writers and illustrators - in France, and I'd love to hear their point of view.

If you've ever read and enjoyed my books, please consider leaving a review over on Goodreads.
There's currently only one written review for book one, a nice and very thoughtful summary, giving it three stars.
A perfectly fair review and I think I've adressed some of the reviewers issues in book 2.
How much weight does a secret have when it’s not your own? How does leadership shape the bearer? These are the questions with which Home: Volume 1 is concerned. The story follows two men surnamed Thoreau—Patrick and Emmanuel—both captaining different spaceships and struggling with isolation: one forced upon Patrick, and one chosen by Emmanuel. It’s in this parallel isolation that we see how each man carries or rejects their duties as captain and the secrets that come with the position. After the tragic and unexplained death of the former captain, Patrick finds himself the sole inhabitant of a giant spaceship—Arc 29—capable of supporting thousands of lives, his only companions a giant wolf and a complicated robot. There are secrets to explore and answers to find aboard the ship, but Patrick is reluctant to do so, perhaps still overwhelmed by the untimely loss of the captain, he keeps the answers at arm’s length. Emmanuel, by contrast, holds all the secrets close to his chest, lets them eat away at his vitality as he searches for the answer to a problem that, it seems, he has never shared with those closest to him. (And the larger secret may not even be of his own making.) The results are catastrophic for him personally but it’s a disaster he cannot avoid if he is to fulfill his obligations as a leader. The crushing sense of duty Emmanuel carries is in stark contrast to the breezy life Patrick experiences in the wake of trauma—spent mostly playing golf collecting crystals on low gravity romps, and pointedly ignoring his duties as captain. Not that Patrick doesn’t face his own demons: the shadow of the former captain looms large over the ship and Patrick struggles to break free. Patrick’s story never delivers on its initial mystery—that remains, one assumes, for future installments—and as a consequence the pace lags. But in that slowness the characters and the ship they inhabit have space to reveal themselves. more...

Fancy shot of Rio the cockatiel giving me sweet cuddles.

He has a bad wing, had a panic flight earlier, and now he's extremely cuddly and attached.

unintended positive side effect of turning off Gemini in my gmail- I've cleared my inbox to 0. Since they don't seperate the emails into tabs for you anymore, they all showed up in my inbox and it prompted me to just fucking clear the thing out.

Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

another detail from book 4
our protagonist is in a spacesuit and is standing on the surface of a spaceship, upside down to the reader, holding a long paint roller, saying "what? I should be happy but--"
