Hourly Comics Day has MOVED!

It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st!

#hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd
"IN OBSERVANCE & SOLIDARITY". Two black speech bubbles with white text read "HOURLY COMICS DAY IS NOW ON FEB 8TH. CARTOONISTS HONOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH. FEB 1 - MAR 1". There is an illustration of a black silhouetted hand raised and holding a pen in the top right, and an illustration of a nib pen and an ink well personified on the bottom right. The nib and ink are bumping fists. A URL at the bottom is "hourlycomicsday.com".

shoutout to the random dog that demanded pets, and then refused to let me leave after said pets.

Everyone has that one story they hate to hear. BECAUSE IT'S LIES!! LIES!!! 🤬

What comes to mind for YOU? We want to hear it! Iron Circus Comics is taking submissions for Lie Machine shortly! Get your noggins thinking and then submit here on December 1st! 🧠
ironcircus.com/lie-machine/
What is this? Lie Machine is a non-fiction anthology about propaganda, bad faith arguments, headline-twisting narratives, and biased reportage, both in the past and present . . . and perhaps, potentially, even the future. Remember the woman who sued McDonald’s over too-hot coffee, and then had her perfectly justified lawsuit condemned as absurd and greedy by the popular press? Did you know drug prohibition legislation in the US was pushed through on a wave of racist fear-mongering? Or are you watching Grok spread Holocaust denialism in real time, and wanna talk about what that might mean for the future? Yeah, we want stories like that. And we want those stories from you. https://ironcircus.com/lie-machine/

I’ve made a number of comics related to or directly influenced by the podcast @unexplained.bsky.social over the last 3 years. Paranormal comics are so fun to write and Richard’s work on Unexplained has been a huge inspiration. Read them all for free on my website: www.amoryabbott.com/illustration

"At its core, I wanted to create an inequitable world where demons like to roam and slurp up all those desperate people. Yum."

We interview artist @scarletwingskaili.bsky.social about her HALFSOUL series, which depict mental health struggles in a magical setting:

A self-illustrated portrait of Scarlet Wings Kaili. She is depicted as a woman with medium skin tone and chin-length dark hair in a choppy cut, in profile in front of a window with cracked glass, holding a feather.

How to make comics
A four panel comic... Two rows of two panels each. Each panel is a shot of an artist sitting at a desk. In the first panel, the artist is sitting in front of a blank piece of paper, wondering how he can come up with an idea for his next comic. In the second panel he says, " I know! I'll just grab it from the future after I've already done it." He then reaches down from the second panel into the fourth panel to grab the completed comic. In the third panel, he looks at the completed comic with disappointment. "Whoof! This is the best I could come up with?" In the fourth panel, he willingly discards the comic by handing it up to the artist in the second panel. "Ehh, you can have it," he says.
