Also, good to hear from you. Don’t drink too much… I know it’s tempting. I’ve been drinking too much lately — not good. Lol

All countries have their problems, that’s how I see it. I’m okay living in the *in between * not black or white, left or right, fight or flight. I have empathy & sadness for many things around the world. I’m just doing my part to be a good person where I can make an impact the best.
Makes sense. Perfect.
What comic era are we in now? We’ve had Golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, Modern Age, etc…
Matthew, yeah… that is where I am now. After decades of doing it myself I’m seen as the one-man-army. But either I change my style, find someone with another style, or keep my style until it comes back in style, lol. Every attempt at collaboration has ended in failure.
Just need to create some character designs that are truly different and STICK TO IT. However, I know publishers are often looking for *teams* because more creators on a book bring in more audiences. A single creator kinda taps out at a certain point… I guess. I dunno.
I guess I’ll end up doing it myself. I’m broke, no money to offer upfront - only backend profits.
So hard to find artists for comics nowadays. So many do characters, but they can’t do backgrounds. So many do superheroes only, or it’s too cartoony, or only spot illustration - not sequential, especially for a series of 4 to 5 issues.
Y’know what…? You’re right.
Especially as I sit here trying to “paint” and realizing that I cannot paint, hahaha!
I’m an old dog that might need a new trick. I dunno. But I feel more like a spectator in the stands more than a player on the field. #artist #comics #creator
Took me a while, but I have come to realize that I am an Artist Living In Epilogue.
November 21st. 2012. Comic book wives have a special place in heaven. #wedding #anniversary #comics
Well, that is interesting and mellow coming from you. I was expecting something a bit no more raucous, I’ve been head banging a little lately. Still good to hear from you, and I hope the best for your mental journey— god knows I was in that shit just two days ago. Glad I don’t own a gun.
Line work and composition is excellent. Love it.
After 30 years as a published comic professional I’m still trying to break into the comic industry, lol.
I mean, I would’ve thought the iPhone /iPad would be the villain, or any number of robot Ai toys.
Just drove back to California from War-torn Oregon. I couldn’t believe the sheer destruction [/sarcasm]
Jesse Welles concert last night. #jessewelles #music #live #concert #filmoresf
This is what my therapist would call “exposure experience”
Gonna see a concert tonight, but my introvert side would also be just fine staying home. #comics #writing
That pretty much brings me right back to a personal website all over again. That, with a newsletter, Patreon and social media is the supposed trinity to engagement. Just have to put in the work. Once again… the problem is me. lol
I might, I’m always thinking of Kickstarter. But even that has gone from an *indy* thing to a big publisher thing.
Yeah, the Zuckerberg thing is a tricky one for me. Facebook literally has billions of active monthly users, and remains the top platform - no matter what the kids say about boomers being on it. Hahah!
That’s the question, isn’t it? What would make this feel more like a place I could invest in? Not sure. I guess the problem is really with ME, I need to engage more and build myself up. Not just here, but everywhere. Maybe that’s it. Maybe I shouldn’t be looking for *one platform*
I’ve been on Bluesky since February - when I left all Meta stuff behind. I still don’t feel at home here, nor any social media platform. I’m basically social media homeless. #media #socials #bluesky
A new type of exorcism… or would that be exoroticsm?
And if a priest showed love to a demon would he still be a man of the cloth?
Can a demon find love? If so would they still be a demon?
One again, picking up the script I started almost a year ago. UNLOVED. The story of a demon searching for true love. #comics #art #demon #romance
