Tom Petty was right. Waiting IS the hardest part. We are so very close to launching the next Family Graves comic into the world that I can't stand it. Here's some great art by @brianatkinsart.bsky.social & @jj81-studios.bsky.social. #digthefamilygraves #comicsky #makecomics #indiecomics #monsters

My general rule of thumb is that if it doesn’t make the face look like it’s made out of Play-Doh then it wasn’t a hard enough looking punch. 😆😆

I told my comics class that you have to purposely add old people, young people, and different kinds of people because it turns out they exist.
So when you draw a crowd, even if you only draw one bug-eyed old witch it helps.

Working up a sketch for a Black Canary blank. Unclaimed so if you’d like it just hit me up. Have loved this character for years and love any chance to draw her.

More art from the second out-of-this-world Family Graves mini-series. @brianatkinsart.bsky.social is doing a fantastic job! Keep following for more on this monster family adventure comic that's like The Munsters meets The Fantastic Four. Big things happening in 2025!

Surprised that Instagram continues to be the best app for me to actually see what artists are creating.
I slowed Way down on that app due to meta AI but just not seeing much art elsewhere, especially here.
