With all the wars and crises going on in the world, let's discuss arts.
Russia is back at the Venice Biennale. This is not just art - it’s a cultural-information operation: an effort to make the presence of an aggressor state appear "normal" again.
Attention, Comic-Book Poland! They are coming! 🚨📚
To takie call of duty predyktywnej bukmacherki plus marketingowy stunt. Także, wiesz, luz. Literatura.
❗Terrifying and hypnotic, Diefenbach by Benedykt Szneider (comic book author and art director of the game Ruiner and my good pal) can be supported on @kickstarter.com❗
It’s not their fault. No one danced for them on TikTok with captions explaining that this wasn’t a good direction for the trip😎
Thanks for mentioning Rosiński. One of our own, an extraordinary narrative talent, an absolute classic. When you have a moment, I recommend looking up the work of Jerzy Wróblewski. He had a chance to draw for Marvel in the 1980s, but politics probably got in the way.
In summary: US troops are merely mercenaries in the service of the Saudis and the criminal government of Israel. What a spectacular, pathetic downfall.

So sad to share that legendary colorist Tatjana Wood has passed away at the age of 99. Her pioneering painterly touch graced scores of DC & Vertigo series. She was truly one of a kind and a special friend. May her memory be a blessing.
Fck’em, you’re doing great. Big fan:)
And some people were worried that the Large Hadron Collider would create a black hole that would swallow our planet.
No nie wiem, czy te konta są w większości „polskie” oprócz standardowej grupki pożytecznych idiotów😎
Mały recykling Fiata 126p w mojej wersji Liberty Walk Abas Works, narysowanej dla Błażeja Kurowskiego do trzeciego tomu „Stachonowiec in Space”. Myślę, że Maluch na to zasługuje.
Ooooh, I’m so jealous:) Awesome job, congrats❤️
Conciliatory, from what I can see. Apparently only half the bottle was drunk.
Outer Dark is one of the darkest books I’ve ever read (more than once) and one I no longer want to revisit after becoming a father. But I do recommend it. Of course I recommend it.
We can see it when we jump from Outer Dark to, say, The Road. But for me, the linguistic razor of that first title cuts closer to the skin. Maybe it’s because that first one was also the first McCarthy I ever read. And maybe also because of the translation, which was itself a razor in its own right.
McCarthy’s sentence is a 100% linguistic distillate. No seasoning, just pure meat. You do have to recalibrate a bit after lush, sprawling prose, that’s true.
I think the season is already about halfway through on Crunchyroll. I’m four episodes in so far and it’s pretty good. It’s a very sad story overall (just like the previous one), but there’s definitely plenty to feast your eyes on.
I was there when this comic (one of the best in Poland in 2023) was being born. Fungae is comic-book literature of the highest order, a work of narrative mastery created by some of our finest people and my good friends. Don’t miss it over there across the Big Water, chooms!
I haven’t talked much about what I did in the international Legion of Ukraine, because of survivor’s guilt, because it’s difficult, & my army experience didn’t involve guns or the front line. I used a laptop more than a rifle. But with the legion being formally dissolved, I want to change that.
Last Saturday, during Podziemne Kocury, the Polish independent comics awards were presented. In the Zine/Anthology category, AKT #39 from Toruń won (partly dedicated to celebrating the 25th anniversary of the publishing house Kultura Gniewu). The issue also features my illustration.

To ALL my comic loving/making friends on here. If you can do me a MASSIVE favour and share this message (not just like) about my new crime heist comic THE SKIM...
Well, that would be all kinds of wonderful and i'd appreciate it greatly.
Thank you!

You don’t need Disney-level resources and drawing skills to create animation.
People have made classics with sand and a source of light. With magazine clippings, or their own bodies animated via stop motion. There’s no barrier to entry, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/sand-and-a...
Otwarte Komiksy hosted Berenika Kołomycka and fragments of the animated pilot episode based on her Tiny Fox and Great Boar comic series were presented publicly for the 1st time! I had the honor of directing it. Produced by EGoFILM. The production is co-financed by the Polish Film Institute.
As always, I encourage you to purchase the magazine directly from the publisher’s store.

Check out the available cover variants!
So, the best-selling comic published by Kultura Gniewu in 2025 was… PRODUKT #25 (and the previous issue from 2024 ranked 11th!). I’ve had the pleasure of serving as its editor-in-chief since 1999 (with a 20-year break between 2004 and 2024, when the magazine was no longer being published).
Mam na to pewien sprytny plan.
