Been sick a couple of days, not written much; wrote this about why I am not interested in publishing and just posting serialized chapters for free on my website: hpkomics.com/2025/11/sick...

Goblin Shrine comic.
The zine this month was a bit of a curve ball. We made random mini comics, mostly one pagers. This one got away from me a little, but it was a lot of fun building some movement between the illustrations I already did. Thinking about doing more in this world.
a goblin mother carries her brood hoard through a canyon, an then falls asleep. the child goblins awaken and depart. one makes his way to a crying sphinx statue and drinks it's dripping tear.

Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope.

Yes, THAT Pope.
The logic of algorithms tends to repeat what “works,” but art opens up what is possible. Not everything has to be immediate or predictable. Defend slowness when it serves a purpose, silence when it speaks and difference when evocative. Beauty is not just a means of escape; it is above all an invocation. When cinema is authentic, it does not merely console, but challenges. It articulates the questions that dwell within us, and sometimes, even provokes tears that we did not know we needed to express.

Who is up for some #LinkedIn lunacy? I had to suffer through this exchange, so I figured I would share it with you all.

Warning, depiction of an unwell mind discussing #AI and masking their inability to concentrate on reading.

Here was their first comment that caught my attention.

#dystopia
LinkedIn post: "I am not an author before, and I wrote a 100 page book in 3 days (8-10h). And now I am even quicker and I started making minibooks 5 pages each. Why make 100 pages. I know a friend who only makes minibooks an publishes them on amazon and makes good money. I don't read books. If someone wants me to comment on a book I upload the PDF into Google Gemini and I "speak" to the book, I wrap it up, thats the first thing I do, "wrap it up in 2000 chars" and after that I know the content. Then I ask "Wrap up the 3 main topic of the book". I would lever read a book. I just want to "talk to the book". Life would be easier for me if you release your books in a AI friendly format and I might start buying books."

In today's #RGBots Green decides to share some of his deep thoughts on Franz Kafka's classic work 'The Metamorphosis' - very exciting!

www.rgbots.com/comic/litera...

#comic #robot #webcomic #literature
This is a transcript of the November 13th, 2025, RGBots comic. Panel One Green is reading something from what appears to be an e-reader. He talks to the audience. Green: I’ve been diving into a lot of literary classics lately. Just about to finish one right about now! Panel Two Green wraps up his current reading choice. Green: There, that is The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. What an interesting book. Panel Three Green explains his thoughts on The Metamorphosis. Green: I found the themes very interesting and the protagonist to be very relatable. There sure are a lot of ways to interpret what is actually going on, though. Panel Four Green finishes his thoughts on Franz Kafka’s story. Green: But if the family wasn’t doing all that well why didn’t they just sell admission to see Gregor after he turned into a bug? That way he didn’t have to starve. Everyone would have been happy!
