There is no safety net for creators/staff or fans from sexual harassment at many publishing venues, so Image secretly working with him in private for years is shocking but not surprising. Just because it's a place that publishes creative owned work doesn't mean they won't act as craven as most corps

Image Comics & Warren Ellis have been developing new comics together since 2023, with Ellis joking back then that the publisher was "trapped." Details: www.thepopverse.com/comics-warre...

I think the problem is that there is a internet monoculture now for dumb guys where they all say the same dumb stuff but back in the day you’d have bespoke dumb guy opinions like how your uncle thinks Buddy Holly faked the crash

It’s been interesting to see whose mind immediately went to Rocky Horror and whose mind immediately went to Muppets and whose mind immediately went to Clue and whose mind immediately went to SPAAAACE and on and on and on because no matter what age you are he’s iconic and very special to you

A side note from this drawing… Anyone new here might not have seen the Pencil Graveyard before ✏️🪦 It's the most oddly satisfying thing I own, & on Friday I'll drop the 1st round of nubs from this moth drawing into it with a satisfying plink. I expect these 5 colours to end up in there soon, too

An old & very large coffee jar filled with teeny tiny pencil nubs in all sorts of colours. It's very strangely satisfying, & if you shake it you get a nice plinky sound of wood on glass.A little plastic pot with 9 teeny tiny pencil nubs in it, on the palm of my hand. They are; 2 Polychromos dark sepia, 2 Polychromos ivory, a Polychromos brown ochre, bistre, nougat & warm grey III, and a Luminance raw umber 10%.The 5 main colours of pencil I'm using in the moth drawing from the quoted thread.  Polychromos dark sepia, Polychromos brown ochre, Luminance raw umber 10%, Luminance buff titanium, Polychromos thulite brownish.

Going around shading in the same areas on each moth in turn to start with. That's gonna help me orient myself as I start to build up the layers. Also helps keep all the moths consistent. Don't need to be perfectly symmetrical or perfectly identical, that's not how real moths look. Just consistent…

Close up on one of the moths in the drawing having pale ivory lines shaded on its wings.

I think Only Lovers Left Alive is the only vampire/immortality movie I’ve seen deal with the fact that most people are fucking idiots and it’s exhausting dealing with that even for a few decades, never mind forever.

the hatred towards my use of AI on this website has unfortunately forced me to return to X, where i can always find civilized conversation with users like basedracist88 and The Gentleman Bitch Strangler

People tell me they like suits but don't have occasions to wear one. You can wear a suit to court, funerals, and religious services. Doesn't have to be your trial, friend's burial, or religion you believe in. Go to random trials, attend a stranger's burial, join multiple religions. Try it sometime.
