Here! Have a Halloween comic! Words by me, art by @lanedraws.bsky.social
I have been saying for YEARS that I want to do a heist! I should folding my laundry looking like ROYALTY
I actually love the maps, always have
Dear authors: sorry, I will never look at maps.

Once again, Saturday is upon us, so you know the drill at this point! All weekend my DMs are open to anyone and everyone who’s new to making comics looking for feedback or advice on writing, art, or the industry at large!

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.
i know the desire to fight with these sick freaks is strong but resist the urge and just block. it’s better for your brain.
And now I have "do reptiles have testicles?" in my search history
That's one of those legendary lines, you don't come back from that
What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.
I don't know why but I suddenly want to see Hellraiser as a Saturday morning cartoon

It’s #PortfolioDay and boy howdy, do I need work for the rest of this year. If you like dynamic, wacky art that you won’t find anywhere else, give me a chance! Covers, comics, album art, band posters, merch, commissions, I do it all!

It is tacky for really famous people to be in TV commercials for products. Their gambling debts/boat repairs are not my problem, those roles should belong to actors like the Time To Make The Donuts guy and the actress who said "who are you calling a cootie queen you lint licker" in that Orbit ad.

Short story collections should be way more popular and marketed better for the short-attention present.

I'm hoping to avoid bots. I think I have a good starting point to talk to some people.
This is a campaign promise I can get behind
We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
If my math is right we are now the same distance from the Deep Blue Something song Breakfast at Tiffany's as it was from the movie
We are now two years further from the Bowling For Soup single "1985" than that record was from 1985.

I hate time, make it stop.
Ian Watkins got stabbed to death in prison, so there's that I guess

I'm just saying, if you have spicy scripts that need art, I'm apparently pretty damn good at drawing them
Oh she's not gonna read then, she just wants to force everyone to write them
John Fetterman is a punk-ass bitch

I didn't know Mamdani's wife was a comics nerd! New York, you have to vote for him now because I need at least one person in comics to have good health insurance.

Hey! Had a couple things end up not starting this month, which is kind of not optimal for me, a person who needs to pay bills. So! If you need commissions, short comics, full comics, covers, prints, concert posters, album art, and you like what I do, maybe hire me!
