Vols 1-3 of REPUBLIK are already in their 2nd Ed. the 1st print run sold out through simple in-person market trading alongside partnerships with small businesses.

Now working on vol4 - the final, double-sized chapter! I’m hoping to have it done early 2026 before announcing my next comic project!

Ever been blown away by the picture quality of a 1080p Blu Ray, but NOT a 4K HDR stream on Disney+?

There’s a lot more to the cinematic experience than resolution and for that Physical media is the GOAT.

In a world of streaming and a bajillion different subscription services I really thought I’d fallen out of love with film. That all changed when I decided to rebuild my old DVD library I gave away years ago. There’s something magical about taking a stroll this big wallet that reanimates that love

The photo of Gaza resident A’ed Abu Amro that this illustration is inspired by blew me away when I first saw it in 2018. One young man standing against the colonial Israeli regime. Outnumbered. Outgunned. Outstanding. #freepalestine

After listening to @how2wrestling.bsky.social ‘s recent podcast about the INCREDIBLE and mysterious Bray Wyatt I just had to illustrate this tribute to one of the most engaging and mesmerising wrestling performers of the past 15 years.

Knowing what your audience want is super important, and at the market I do every month they’ve made it clear; “MORE GAMING STUFF!”

Loved this project

Yeah… so maybe my sonic the hedgehog fandom has been pretty high the past few… lifetime.

Not many males remember the exact moment they became aware of the impact of death but I do, and it was being 6 years old watching Transformers the movie

Discovering @toddmcfarlane.bsky.social ‘s epic Spawn was a right of passage for teenage comic obsessives back in the early 00s and I was no exception! Whether it was drawn by Mcfarlane himself or by the incredible Greg Capullo, I was ALL IN! From then on, drawing Al Simmons became a regular thing

I’ve spent about a month solid listening to @demontomatodave.bsky.social and @chrismcfeely.bsky.social ‘s AMAZING Sonic the Comic the Podcast and the nostalgia inspired me to illustrate this (unfortunately I never mustered up the courage as a child to send a drawing to the graphic zone as a kid)

I illustrated My THIRD children’s book which was recently put into print! Stay tuned on where to get it 😘

I have been SUPER CRAP at update BlueSky, so here’s a recent art dump

In 22 years of making comics THIS is my first ever double page spread!

That’s volume 1 of my Cold War era sci fi comic REPUBLIK off to the printers! Can’t wait to see the result!

So, yesterday some douchebag hacked my THIRTEEN YEAR OLD Instagram, killing off my 900 followers and over a decade of artwork, but this ISNT a tragedy. I’ve been wanting to clean up my insta and having an old backup account was a blessing! The new handle is slam_comics for all who wish to hop on :)

Got my monthly market stall coming up. Thought some valentines cards might be fun.

Well, all that’s left is the cover! Super excited for issue 3 of my Cold War era sci fi comic REPUBLIK to be hitting my stall next Thursday!
