The new edition of Heroes of Homeroom C Vol.1 will be on sale next weekend at Calgary Comic Expo. It will also be featured as an add-on during the HoHC Vol.2 Kickstarter campaign!

I have cool friends and we make cool stuff.

This is the first copy out of the box from the brand new printing of Heroes of Homeroom C Vol.1. Artwork by Carlos Granda, colours & letters by @fredcstresing.bsky.social and cover by @jamaligle.bsky.social.

Your Uncle Kingdom is a happy man today.

RFK Jr looks like the mid-point of Ben Grimm’s transformation into The Thing.

JD Vance looks like the mid-point of democracy’s transformation into a post-nuclear wasteland.

Joe Biden thinking some random Black guy looks like the only Black guy he actually knows is PRIME Joe Biden.

Andrew Scheer is getting fat. So now he’s fat AND stupid.

You’re driving a pink Tesla? I knew you were a shitty person even before I saw you try to cut off that bus in traffic.

Adventurer Athena Voltaire, posed on stairs as fires burn behind her, in a composition that's an homage to the cover used for Dave Stevens' The Complete Rocketeer.

Athena Voltaire is a 1930s pulp-style adventure in the spirit of the Mummy, the Rocketeer, and Indiana Jones. Originally launched as a webcomic, it received an Eisner Award nomination in 2005.

If the name of your recipe begins with “Marry Me…”, you can fuck off with that shit. But I WILL take a second helping of that “Frequent Fuck Buddies chicken & dumplings”.

I feel like this year’s spring cleaning is going to be the most ruthless ever. This is going to be the year of “I’ve got no kids. Who am I saving this for?”

Today was my birthday. The best gift you could give me is to visit www.kickstartthiscomic.com and hit “Notify Me On Launch” to be prepared for the campaign to fund my graphic novel, Heroes of Homeroom C Vol.2.

Please spread the word, #Blacksky!

I am not judging the Orange Tyrant for celebrating Robert Mueller’s death. It would be hypocritical for me to judge him that way when I am planning a week long festival of joy when HE finally kicks the bucket.

I dislike a lot of people but I only HATE a select few. Drumpf is one of them.

Wrestler Forehead is the toxic male equivalent of Mar-a-lago Face.

I’m starting a southern rock cover band but to avoid any copyright claims we’re going to be called The Almond Skinners.

Don’t ask me no questions about the Midnight Rider.

Laying on my bed, doomscrolling and contemplating my sadness when the cat pushes both back paws into my ribs as she stretches and goes back to sleep.

Okay. I think I can make it through another day.

As a post script to my earlier thread, don’t underestimate how miserable I am right now. Even picayune things will likely set me off today as my brain seeks to vent emotion rather than just allow itself to cool down naturally.

I would happily punch a stranger if they pestered me.

In a few weeks, I’ll stop overthinking this. I’ll stop obsessing about “why couldn’t he just be decent to me?” I’ll stop second guessing the decision to end all contact with my only sibling.

And this current pain and guilt and sadness will have been worth it.

And then we’ll never discuss it again.

If someone doesn’t show you basic decency, if someone ruins your equilibrium, if someone is a constant source of bad feelings for you…

Exile that motherfucker.

I’d rather live and die alone than let certain people have access to me. And I encourage you to do the same to people who bring chaos and harm to your life… even if it’s me. I’ve had people cut me loose and I’ve almost always known why.

And good for them. You have to protect YOU.

My parents are both gone now but he is still the most toxic source of anxiety in my life… so now he’s gone. In time, I’ll be able to at least wish him well but at this moment, I wish he were trapped under a piano.

Don’t allow toxic people any sway in your life. Family, friends, fans, foe. No one.

I wasn’t home from Japan for 24 hours before I was made miserable again. (I’ll talk about it here because if I mention it on Facebook, I catch shit from family elders.)

Anyways, I have disowned my brother.

I’ve wanted to for years but my parents kept guilting or cajoling me into not doing it.

Why, yes, when my plane lands after a 12-hour flight, I would LOVE to spend an extra 30 minutes or so, stuck in my seat waiting for a gate to open for us.

Cumming. Cuming involves adding cumin to whatever you’re cooking.

Doc’s Comics Sharing my love for old comics with run flipthroughs(as shorts), highlights of what I pick up each week, and various takes and tips on collecting that might cross my mind at the moment. Mostly silver...

If you’re a silver and Bronze Age #comics nerd I humbly request that you give my #YouTube channel a shot. I’m slowly approaching 1000 subscribers and would love to get there.

It ain’t the flashiest channel in the world but I’m having fun

I’m in the stands at Korakuen Hall I. Tokyo right now watching the first night of the New Japan Cup tournament. Chase Owens is in the opening match, so don’t you ever tell me I don’t know about suffering.

“Text me some nudes so I know you got home safe” sounds like an adorable way to say good-bye.

In the middle of colouring a Muppets sketch cover and a pair of Copics die on me. Now, not only do I have to leave the apartment, I have to buy a marker for $9.29 and tax that I could get next week in Osaka for $4.25.

Yinz all better click “like” when I post the finished product! 😆

Blissfully unaware

The only downside to the whole thing is leaving Chloe with a friend. She has a veterinary appointment on Monday and that is already traumatizing enough for her. Poor little fur all has no idea what’s coming for her.

I hope to produce plenty of video blogs. I’ll be uploading them to YouTube and mirroring/linking them here. Short of doing a comic convention in the UK or somewhere, this could possibly be the last time I ever use my passport. I plan to enjoy it.

I don’t think I’ve mentioned it much anywhere but I’m finally going to Japan. In fact, I leave in nine short days. Tokyo and Osaka. Plenty of pro wrestling and sumo on the agenda. Plenty of nerd shopping and an art supply shop where Copic markers are less than half the price they are here.

Emma Frost and suitors…

The Muppet Maltese Falcon.

Mais, oui, mon ami. I will indeed be there. Hence a few new sketch covers are in the works.

Sam, are you going to be tabling at Toronto Comicon?
