I’m trying to get better at not posting blatant wishes of death towards the mega rich, but sometimes one slips through.

Good day to be an Everton fan, let’s gooooo.

So Netflix are buying Warner Bros. This is the next step in blu-ray and DVDs dying.
They’re also chummy with Snyder so it’ll be funny if they give him back the Justice League movies.

I’ve been so focused lately on getting BUMP 5 and Pumpkingirl done that I’ve completely forgotten to come up with any other ideas.

I find myself less interested in Absolute DC now that I’ve learned it’s just another universe that regular Darkseid was like “fuck you in particular” with.
The crossover with main DC is inevitable and those never end well.

So any other of my art friends want 50 bucks to draw some pumpkin based violence?
Quick reminder that I’m always looking for artists to do art pages for a future Pumpkingirl comic!
Small project, so only $50 USD BUT no deadline and you can draw whatever you want 🎃
So far, @donnaablack.bsky.social and @lanedraws.bsky.social have done these 2, still looking for 8 more!

“Are you allowed to tell people you’re a hitman?”
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

My favourite thing about pitching to comic publishers is how they all seem to want six finished pages of art in advance and then also want to do edits for those “finished” pages if they decide to move forward.
Maybe just accept art samples from other projects, y’know?

I love Persona and Shin Megami Tensei, but I hate that they’ve turned me into a guy who plays JRPGs. I used to make fun of people like this, now I’m playing all the Mana games 😔😂

I’ve started to consume WWE content exclusively through stupid memes and it’s honestly a really good way to keep up with who’s champion, which is all I really care about anymore.

I’ve decided I’m out of ideas so I’m gonna start blatantly plagiarising other comics.
