I’m looking for a gig. Here’s a detail of a short story i’m working on now. I LOVE short stories, love them!!!! but i need one of those big things like a miniseries or something to survive. Thanks for the consideration.

A rare East Coast appearance for Ol' Phil. One of the finest comic book shows around!

For those interested: I wrote a 290pg graphic novel biography of Saint Ignatius Loyola so Jesuit schools had an accessible way to teach the life and spirituality of the man who founded their order.

Some news I’ve only shared with two people before today. I got enough orders of my most recent project to take it to print. 2,500 copies were delivered today.

A menu without prices listed is not a menu.

The post-SDCC advice I wish I could give to a certain type of young creator: Be less thirsty. Put in the work and time and the jobs will come. Cons are about making connections and having fun. Not every conversion has to be a pitch, or even a discussion on comics. Usually, I'd prefer anything but.

I'm heading back out to L.A. next month to catch The Breeders at the Hollywood Paladium and I thought I'd do a few appearances as well. Let's get Thunderpunched and Divine Hammered along the way!

airlines are grifters and their CEOs should go to prison

I admire our government's new commitment to honesty.

I'm excited for this Absolute Cinema I'm about to experience.

At 7am, it's 95 degrees with 35% humidity. But don't worry! This afternoon, the humidity drops, and it's only going to be 116 outside...

It was a moment for #Spain’s #WorldCup football team to receive accolades well earned. As players crossed the stage for trophies and medals, they received congratulatory hand shakes and applause from #PMCarney, #PresidentScheinbaum, #PresidentTrump. Some more enthusiastic than others. #cdnpoli

Reminder...

How can Disney mail me a letter saying they can't find an address to mail me a check?

What?? A last-minute signing I just bullied myself into with the wonderful @magmacomix.bsky.social! Tomorrow at booth 1709 from 7-8 I'll be signing Death Comes for the Toymaker, so swing by and grab a copy!

If you're a college aged (and above) student in Phoenix who plans to make comics, or an artist who is curious about the process and wants to learn more, then check this out. Fall classes start in about 5 weeks and I teach on Wednesdays.

I'm tagging along with @jgonzo.bsky.social to SDCC. I'll be there Wednesday and Thursday. No schedule at all but I'm sure I'll be at the CBLDF party and at various pubs around. If we're mutuals, please say hi! Check out Gonzo's account for all the rad stuff he'll be up to.

One way of getting around the "is this AI" question is to credit your artists.

I'm rooting for the colonizers here. But truthfully, I just hope everyone has fun.

Hey, do me a favor and do an internet search for "free fridge" and your town's name. And then go drop some stuff off when you have some food you're not gonna eat. Got some takeout with an extra wonton soup you're not gonna eat? Take it to the free fridge. Someone needs it. Seriously.

Live look at Thomas Tuchel

Watched a movie called Redux Redux last night, and I'm furious I didn't think of that idea. I'm really disappointed in myself, honestly. If you like violent revenge fiction, watch it without reading the synopsis.

I traditionally colored this big ass Phantom original art by Ryan Quackenbush as a commission. This thing is like 24x36 (ish). Intimidating to say the least. Ryan is an outstanding artist, so I'm happy to know he, and the commissioner, Ed, are pleased with it.

I'm sorry, you wanted to be able to literally dictate what happens to other people's bodies but you think you deserve privacy? Fuck. Off.
