Actor in things (Like Academy Award winning Spotlight), writer of comics (Like Ringo nominated Better Place), and occasionally roped into producing still, but would rather not. Yes, that profile pic is me.

The “Sunday Strips” from Who Are The Power Pals #2 was so much fun to do, would do a whole issue in that format!

TPB comes out end of this month, if you’ve missed the single issues now is your chance!

We have an official signing at 12:30 on the Saturday, but I’ll be there all weekend right beside @theahmedraafat.bsky.social . If you have Better Place feel free to bring it to be signed, since I don’t know the next time I’ll be in the Uk!

If anyone I know is at NYCC I’d appreciate you grabbing me one of these.

Jared Cullum @jaredcullum.bsky.social · 2d

Big news for NYCC! My pub & Walmart put out an exclusive look at the new series Usagi Yojimbo: Kaitō ‘84 w/ an ashcan showing some pages, process and a sneakpeak at character models. Stop by the Walmart booth and grab a copy! Saturday the legend, Stan Sakai will be signing them!

Comps are here! Out October 28th! Go buy a case to give them out to the preteens who don’t dress up and walk around with a pillowcase. They’ll love it!

1. I've absolutely done this, and will probably do it again without thinking. Apologies to artists and letterers. 2. My scripts are Courier Prime. If that's bad, it's Scrivner's fault. 3. I have no idea what Hanging Text is so now I have to learn.

and emails. My first hour or so of every day when I’m actively on a book is emails.

What drives me nuts is each 'event' I buy tickets from ticketmaster has their own 'manager' page or app, and I can't seem to just access or put all the electronic tickets through the ticketmaster app. I have to go through each individual 'manager page' or app.

Headed out to Fan Expo now. I'll be right beside Shawn at table A02. Find Shawn. Find me! Hope to see you there!

Shawn Daley @shawndaley.bsky.social · Aug 20

This weekend at @fanexpocanada.bsky.social, I encourage any fans who are artists or writers to come talk comics--show me what you're drawing, ask about the process, talk about your work--these shows are such a great way to learn! I'll be at A04 all weekend. #fanexpocanada

Unfortunately many Canadian cities were designed to get workers back and forth quickly from suburbs to (name your industry...mining, steel, forestry, manufacturing plant), and it developed a long standing car first mentality that I have a lot of trouble with. It's why I long to move to Europe.
