Thanks to @dodafoo.bsky.social ! Time to update the convention banner!

One of the best nights of ECCC was hanging with @terrydodsonart.bsky.social , @adamwarren.bsky.social , @chrisroberson.net, @lukasketner.bsky.social , and @dodafoo.bsky.social talking not about our love for comics, but our love for old comic book advertisements. We all knew them word-for-word

At The Fine Print Crew panel at ECCC with @caraoneil.bsky.social @dodafoo.bsky.social @zackdavisson.com

Want to work in comics but don’t know where to begin? Let us help! The Fine Print Crew will be at @emeraldcitycon.bsky.social Thursday March 5th 12:15pm in Summit Room 342. We’ll be chatting about working in comics & answering questions! @zackdavisson.com @caraoneil.bsky.social @dodafoo.bsky.social

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

For about 10 years now, @dodafoo.bsky.social and @caraoneil.bsky.social , @valentinebarker.com , and whomever we can wrangle on stage have been doing a convention panel called "So You Want to Work in Comics?" We give all the advice anyone will ever need on how to break in. Step 1) Make Comics.

He's not wrong.

still my favorite christmas post

Had the fun recommended procedure today for once you turn 45. All went really well! I’m hungry and groggy now, enjoying some apple juice. And of course I left my Santa hat on! But seriously people, get that colonoscopy when you turn 45! One more way to stay healthier longer!

There are 1,700 ballots that need signature confirmation. That is enough to change the election. Go. Check. Your. Ballot. komonews.com/news/local/s...

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

•ABC: fires Kimmel for mocking Trump •CBS: fires Colbert for mocking Trump •ABC: fires Moran for slamming Stephen Miller •MSNBC: fires Matt Dowd for saying “hateful thoughts lead to hateful actions” •FOX: Champions Brian Kilmeade as he calls for Nazi state murder of America’s 600K homeless people

People told me I was overreacting in 2016 and again last year. Clearly I was under reacting. This country is being run by facists that are a danger to the future of the USA.

👇👇

The murder of Charlie Kirk is terrible for our country. Violence is not the answer. To learn from this, let's not fictionalize who Kirk was. A day before his death, he said: "Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America." That's not respectful speech. That's violent rhetoric.

Something we do at every convention that will let us is run a "So you want to work in comics?" panel, showcasing the many jobs you can have in comics. There are lots of ways to work in comics without being the writer/line artist. You may not be the lead singer, but you are still in the band.

Thanks to everyone that came out to see the Fine Print Crew at Rose City Comic Con and thanks for the excellent questions! We had a blast chatting with you. We always love to help, so reach out to us on here! @dodafoo.bsky.social @valentinebarker.com @caraoneil.bsky.social @zackdavisson.com

Where do these people want comics to go next? If they demand we show respect to the real people who have the same ideology as the most evil villains in comics, what are the plots even gonna be? Centrist comics where we can see Red Skull win his debate against the first year Xavier students?

I will keep comparing facists like Trump and Kirk to Nazis.

Just got a picture with this hero out protesting today in Spokane. Back of his shirt said “VETS AGAINST FACISM”

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

2020: attacks on “BLM” 2022: attacks on “CRT” 2024: attacks on “woke” 2025: attacks on “DEI” BLACK. THEY MEAN BLACK.

ECCC Day 2! @dodafoo.bsky.social

This is embarrassing. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social if you don’t have the guts to meet the moment, please step down. We need better. Pickleball paddles and pink suits ain’t it. You all should’ve stayed home.

The Republican Party is a a Not see bar, and according to tonight’s speech, they’re happy with it.

Coming to ECCC? Ever thought about working in comics? Check out the Fine Print Crew Friday at 8pm. @zackdavisson.com and I will be joined by @valentinebarker.com , @caraoneil.bsky.social & maybe more. We’ll talk about jobs in comics you may not know about, answer questions, give advice, & have fun!

The Fine Print Crew: So You Want to Work in Comics? Fri, Mar 7, 2025 • 8:00 PM If you've ever wondered "How can I join the glorious world of people who work in comics...?" Here's your chance! We'll walk you up to the door, tell you how to open it... the rest is up to you!!! @dodafoo.bsky.social

Ukraine was illegally invaded by Russia, and Trump thinks that instead of fighting back, they should just accept it. I guess this isn’t too surprising when you remember that Trump is a RAPIST.

I will immediately judge anyone who calls the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America now. Utter stupidity.

“No tolerance for intolerance” - Dark Matter by Pearl Jam Being a good person doesn’t mean tolerating the hate we see in the world, it means standing up to it and defending the targets of hate.

So, is there some sort of “America is Great Again” meter we can be following along with? Because I’m really trying to to figure out where “The whole world hates us” puts us on the Great Again Meter.

One side of my beard has a lot more grey than the other

This is my evergreen status for the next 4 years.

To help and aid those who have suffered during the recent and devastating Los Angeles wildfires, I am auctioning off this Cyclops original illustration with 100% of the proceeds going to the American Red Cross. Here is a link to that auction: www.ebay.com/itm/16725502...

Also binged Nobody Wants This earlier last week. It was so much better than I was expecting. Looking forward to another season!

Started watching Silo a couple days ago and got hooked. On the season one finale now. Very cool show.

Happy New Year to everyone except Trump and the people who voted for him. You can all fuck off.

Only time you’ll hear me say these words… GO BLUE!!!! Let’s make history today and elect the first female President! Forward!!!

Finally read “Count” by @ibrahimmoustafa.bsky.social Amazing work my friend!

“You could do far worse than to build a lifetime of friendships with the people you meet in comics." @jimzub.bsky.social @dodafoo.bsky.social @jacksonlanzing.bsky.social @collinkelly.bsky.social @lyssawrotethat.bsky.social @mrsbarker.bsky.social @jodyhouser.bsky.social @caraoneil.bsky.social

Today is 5 years out from the surgery that almost killed me. Happy to still be here and now just over 3 years cancer free. Scans coming up next month, hoping they continue to be clear!

Preparing for RCCC tomorrow. I’m “not” @zackdavisson.com ‘s handler, but I am his “handler”.
