Giddy is a very good word for this. Funny, spooky and myth referencing. Good for YA and OAPs
“My Dad Fights Demons feels like an encore and a street party at the same time. The book is loud and giddy and also tender and attentive.”

Aw man I love those old sketches! The top left is even sorta carried over to be one of my favourite splash pages in the book 🥰
When we originally came up with My Dad Fights Demons, it had a different title. The creative process changed the name of the book! Here is how the cover from @abbiebsart.bsky.social original sketches to the title changes, and the eventual title that was published! #comics #graphicnovel #mdfd
Young Comics Laureate Mollie Ray (Ray), creator of critically acclaimed graphic novel Giant, has launched Scribble through the Struggle, a campaign with a wellbeing focus many comic creators will surely identify with.
I'm auctioning these two original "Robin of Sherwood" pages by Mike Noble. First published in 1985 (from the Christmas issue of Look-In, cover dated 21st December 1985), created for the story “Beasts from the Past”. Poor old Robin of Sherwood somehow found himself pitted against an angry dinosaur, a story idea so bonkers that only an artist of Mike’s calibre can surely bring it any credibility, which of course he does, with aplomb. Art as pictures. Each board measures 368 x 500mm. All speech balloons are original and still attached. I strongly advise selecting a delivery service that includes tracking; the postage price is set based on that. Find the art on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/127765079348
