Corporate media: “You know what would turn the public opinion against this CEO-killing folk hero that everybody thinks is super hot? Knowing that they could literally watch him fuck.” Great work, y’all. Truly fantastic.

People think the chipmunk had that big A on his outfit because his name was Alvin, but you’ll notice the other two didn’t wear their initials. No, in fact, Alvin was forced to wear that letter because he was a disgusting little whore.

The kid and I made snow ice cream! Because we’re classy, I made sure to get the yellow snow, so we could have French Vanilla.

So, not technically my final drawing of 2024, but definitely my last sketchbook entry of the year. After recently doing that profile of Count Orlok from memory and missing the mark a bit, i decided to refresh my memory and do an another somewhat more screen-accurate take on Eggers’ NOSFERATU.

this is why you don’t lift babies by their heads

No matter how much skill you acquire, drawing reveals something indelible about yourself that maybe even you don't comprehend. You're confessing, not flexing. We're connecting with your vulnerability as much as your talent. Hiring a robot to spackle over those faults is a cosmic goof.

Needed a little warmup before inking today, so I did a little doodle of the new Eggers #NOSFERATU from memory, just to get my brain and hands working together. Hope y’all dig it!

Just noticed that this week is the 20th anniversary of Young Zombies In Love at the NY Fringe Festival. (That's the pop/rock musical Gm7 and I wrote way back when.) I see that I have not updated the website in the intervening years. emeraldrain.com

stumbled onto this lynda Barry comic again which always makes me a little verklempt

Last night, I went to a Comics Reading event at an indie comics store/flower shop over in Northern KY. I never realized things like this even existed, especially not in this area. It was a delightful experience, and I walked out of there with a fat sack of new books that I’m excited to sit and read.

I’m super excited to share my first official @eccomics cover, for @onipress’ upcoming EPITAPHS FROM THE ABYSS. This one is a retailer exclusive variant for my dear old pals at @upupawaycomics in Cincinnati, where I’ll be signing on Wed July 24, when the book drops!

Hard to believe that the harsh crackdown on campus protesters only caused the protests to spread to other campuses and to become more aggressive in their tactics, just like every historian has been predicting for the past month.

Our video for @laidbackcountrypicker’s cover of BELA LUGOSI’S DEAD won 2nd Place in the Best Music Video category at the @appalachianfilmfestival this weekend! It was an honor to accept this award on behalf of LB & Honey, @zach_curry & @musicalmoonshine, & all the friends/family who made it happen.

Lorenzo Music voiced Garfield and Peter Venkman in the old cartoons. Bill Murray was Garfield and Venkman in the movies. Because of the quantum entanglement established between these universes, Chris Pratt will play Peter Venkman in the next Ghostbusters movie. Sorry folks, I don’t make the rules.

Biden should have a little drone fly into the courtroom and shoot Alito right in the forehead with a Nerf dart with a note on it that just says, “Sure. Go for it. What’s the worst that could happen?”

A couple years back, I was fiddling with what my general take on Wolverine was, choosing to go more the nasty, hairy, little angry fireplug route, keeping in mind that old rumor about James Cameron wanting to cast Bob Hoskins back in the 90s. Hope y’all dig it.

So, I was looking up the relationship between Snow White and the Evil Queen, and happened across this little tidbit that ABSOLUTELY DEMANDS elaboration:

It’s been a while since I’ve tinkered with it, but for a while, I was teaching myself 3D modeling in @NomadSculpt on the iPad. Every day, I’d watch a @southerngfx tutorial, and then go apply what I’d learned to my model. Little by little, I started to figure it out. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLMTB5v8/

Nine Inch Nails’ SANCTIFIED, only the bassline is the Seinfeld theme.

I’ve never cared to watch a Jake Paul fight, but I am looking forward to the moment that Mike Tyson punches him in the breadbasket and Paul’s entire skeleton flies out of his back like a Simon Bisley LOBO comic.

I just sat down on the toilet and found a little tick starting to plant himself into my inner thigh. Now every tiny itch or tickle has me absolutely convinced that I am covered in them.

If I was a billionaire, I would personally make sure that there was perpetual funding for The Muppet Show, and make sure that it was immune to cancellation. It should not be treated as a business, because it is a public service.

I absolutely LOVE these. I have a modest collection of ViewMaster discs, and the ones like these are my absolute favorites.

Sculpture based view-master slides are a lost art form

Not covid. Any vaccine. This is how you create new, vaccine-resistant strains of long-defeated viruses. It’s a path to mass unnecessary death. Just profoundly stupid, unfathomably dangerous garbage. And it’s about to be the position of the Republican Party.

Thank you to everyone for your responses and, in particular to @mizzelle.bsky.social for sending the Youtube link to the Richmond speech. The link below starts right when Trump promises that he will ban all federal funding to any school that has any vaccine mandates. Measles, anyone?

That’s wild, seems like a knife or something would have been easier

Dark Brandon should drop a press announcement with Seal Team Six all suited up and standing behind him. He just walks up to the podium in his sunglasses and says, “Go ahead, guys. Give presidents full legal immunity. What’s the worst that could happen?”

Raichik gleefully embraces the designation of “stochastic terrorist.” She is proud to foment the hate that can lead a group of children to murder another child. We won’t forget it, Nex.
