🚨ANNOUNCEMENT!🚨

VERY excited to share w/ you all the title & synopsis of my next OGN coming from Humanoids:

HALFBLOOD
Story/art by me, colors by @20eyesbrad.bsky.social

Launching soon via kickstarter-- click the link below to be notified when it goes live!
www.kickstarter.com/projects/hum...

“Do you believe in fate?” asks Senjuro, The Black Demon, to all those who cross his path. Victim or guide.

A masterless, mixed-race samurai, Senjuro skulks through the shadows of an evolving feudal Japan, seeking to serve...but the age of the Samurai flickers on the winds of modernization, and any work to be had is less than honorable. That is until Claire, a wealthy British explorer and anthropologist, swings through the tavern doors seeking aid from the man whose reputation precedes him; the one they call The Black Demon. Her family has just been monstrously slain and exsanguinated, and signs point to perpetrators beyond human. Along with Claire and her Sikh companion Jangveer, Senjuro the Black Demon must face hell on earth to deliver their reckoning, and in the process, find the honor he so desperately seeks.

From the singular mind of Ibrahim Moustafa, who turned time inside out in RETROACTIVE, reimagined The Count of Monte Cristo as a sci-fi epic in COUNT, and put the Western back in Space Western with CYN, comes a thriller that combines worlds have been long-destined to meet, but will collide for the first time within these pages.

Accompanied by an image of our samurai, Claire, and Jangveer in Sikh armor standing at a portcullis with fang-like spikes, dripping with blood.

Thank you so much!

Thank you! The base figures are the Mezco One:12 set. I actually put off getting them for a really long time because I didn't like the heads they came with, but then I got a 3D printer and some sculpting software and made these, and now I iove them, haha.

I enjoyed Superman '25, but it's wild to me to see clips of Gunn talking abt it as if it's a better movie than the one he made, lol.

I feel like he thinks he prepared a hearty, densely nutritious 3-course meal, when it was more like a bunch of tasty appetizers that made me hungry 2 hrs later.

Damn. Never met him, but Grave Digger was one of the first indie comics I ever bought, and I've always kept it close to hand. May he rest well.

RIP to Christopher Mills — an old-school bona fide indie comics creator who did it for the love of the medium, which is the only reason to do it in the first place. He was the kind of guy who makes artist alleys worth walking, and he'll be missed.

Christopher Mills @atomicpulp.bsky.social · 8d

I only wrote about 100 comics in my so-called career, but now that I'm dying, I'm grateful that I got to do even that. Comics are such a wonderful medium, and they've always meant so much to me.

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

Marvel employees were asked whether the 'WONDER MAN' poster for the in-universe movie was created using Al.
"Its artwork made by artists but touched up by Al," which was clarified with "so, really Al-assisted Photoshop work," and the response was "yes."

Double and triple check videos being released from Portland, Chicago etc. We’re all going to be fed a steady diet of AI horse shit created solely to justify mass arrests. When we do have to throw down, make sure it’s for the real thing.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.
