Graphic Novelist and educator. New Book: Unended
Sketchbook stuff . If I’m not teaching or working on my graphic novel I’m either living in the waking nightmare of our collective future or drawing these
Last sessions teaching at 92y after 17 years. I’ve taught hundreds of people there and use to teach 6 times a week , it’s gotten to be maybe one responsibility too many so I’ve asked them to take me off schedule. Always weird to leave a place
Watched “corvette summer” last night, I loved this movie as a little kid. Cinematography much better than any movie being made at this level now would be. Mark Hammil’s Hair is amazing (- so many of these movies the hair looks like a wig ) as his androgynous overall beauty and look at Annie Potts!
Last few films - I saw hunt the Wilderpeople last night and it’s like Rushmore if it was done by the creator of What we do in the Shadows. Woman of the hour: initially snapped it off after ten minutes as a Netflix half ass true crime cash grab - it’s much better than that and I recommend it
Part 2 of movie round up - I’ve never seen Possession before and it’s a masterpiece. I’ve seen donate afternoon many times first time was on late night tv while in high school in the 80s. Very interesting rewatch in 2025 . Watched Being There as well many times over the years
I’ve been meaning to do a sort of public post of the films I watched during this break from school - have been watching stuff late at night while coloring my graphic novel or writing or doing desk work. It’ll be a multi part post and I’ll maybe describe some of the movies if I can find bandwidth
Recent sketchbook stuff on vacation in Kentucky with Hyena
There's a video on YouTube where I talk a bit more about Polish comics from the 80s with @joshbayercomics.bsky.social, and there are visuals, too
More Halloween content: made this during the summer after Tom Sharpling and a Julie Klausner proposed a 2025 Addams familyMunsters crossover reboot with Marjorie Taylor Green as Grandma Munster, Rudy Giuliani as Grandpa Munster, George Santos and Fettermsn as twin Festers- continued in comments
