I make comics. Bunny Vs Monkey, Looshkin, Megalomaniacs, Flember, Fish Head Steve, Max And Chaffy, and Super Duper Bunny League coming to Nickleodeon in 2024!
This was posted today by the Ukrainian publishers of Bunny Vs Monkey, Dogman, and many others. Just heartbreaking.
Two years ago, I ran a crowdfunder seeking support to keep my comic news site Downthetubes operational, and was blown away by support. Thank you. Can you support the site now? www.gofundme.com/f/downthetub...

I just, I don’t get why The P*ke just slap their logo on other people’s jokes. It’s kinda insulting.
I saw a tv Facebook page post this AI horror up and if I was anyone involved (or Amazon) I would be descending the lawyers all over it.
Do you remember 15 or so years ago when there was like a couple of days where everything was cake pops. Books about cake pops. Lovely cake pops. Then they just disappeared again.
The comments under my local town’s FB post about their Pride celebrations are exactly the reason Pride needs to happen.
This is TODAY! Hugh Raine, Luke Pearson, Tor Freeman and myself taking it in turns to do signings and maybe draw silly things 🎸🏄🏻♂️🤯
🤯 THIS SATURDAY! GOSH COMICS! (Berwick Street, London). Come down and meet a host of brilliant comic artists, get things signed, etc etc. I don’t think it’s ticketed so you can just turn up (with so many brill artists though, I suspect it might be busy!) Timings below! 👇
New arrival!! Comics in the Classroom by @eggyhelen.bsky.social & Lucy Starbuck Braidley (@comicboom.bsky.social) - great addition to anyone seeking to use comics in their teaching! But don’t take my word for it, check out these blurbs!! See more here www.routledge.com/Comics-in-th...
If you’re thinking about getting the X-Files Lego set, if you get a Lego Insider account then the set is available on their website early (ie today), and while stocks last you also get Scully’s lab as a free gift 🚀 JUST. SAYING.
Today is the birthday of cartoonist Jackie Ormes (Aug. 1, 1911-Dec. 26, 1985), the first Black woman to create a newspaper comic strip that was read nationally in the US. She created Torchy Brown in Dixie to Harlem, Torchy in Heartbeats & Patty-Jo ‘n’ Ginger. Patty Jo became a toy doll.
It is a bit mad, if you think about it, that one of the biggest movies in the world is about some lad being bit by a spider. And not only that, it’s the third retelling of it.
Happy publication day to The Diary of Spider-Man! I‘m so proud of this exciting book and I hope that spider-fans will dig it! #spiderman
Finished watching all of Fisk. What a joy. Bit sad it’s over but I suspect it’ll become a comfort rewatch.
I just watched a video of a luxury house where it has two showers in the same bathroom, facing each other. One showerhead on the left of this screenshot, one on the right. WHO WOULD WANT TO SHOWER FACING SOMEONE I DONT UNDERSTAND.
Honestly any politician who did something about bloody shrinkflation would get my vote.
Honestly it’s maddening that the most chum-brained hot takes still get to invoice for being in the national press.
*One* undiscussed problem with embracing a Mediterranean lifestyle as advocated by this piece is we don’t have the Mediterranean, we have the North Sea, and the impact of climate change on the currents and weather patterns of the North Sea is…well, it’s not turning it into the Med, is it?
If I’m in the UK and I order things from the EU, am I likely to be absolutely hammered on postage/taxes thanks to the joys of Brexit?
🥕 It’s been out for about a year now so I thought worth mentioning again - if you have Paramount Plus you can watch SUPER DUPER BUNNY LEAGUE, the tv show based on one of my books by *nearly* the same name! (Ignore mention of dates or new eps, this is a trailer from last year 🚀)
I cannot tell you how often I think about the blood in the oatmeal scene from The Golden Child movie (1986). The answer is a LOT.
Why is the right wing press absolutely furious about Holly Willoughby making her own show on YouTube, or is it best I don’t look into it.
It’s one of life’s perpetual mysteries why Kwasi Kwarteng keeps being invited on GMB to be a pundit, or why he’s being weirdly defensive of Farage, until it was pointed out twice by the other presenters that Farage is an investor in his crypto company, because of course 🫠
Eating fruit just makes me hungry. Am I eating fruit wrong.
Comment on a post about how great children’s comics are right now. Is this sarcasm, am I misreading it.

One of my most favourite things about London is how you can drive over Tower Bridge straight into the Houses Of Parliament 🤗
