Thank you for the kind words. I hope so. I worry my attention and focus is going to be absolutely all over the place.
I've gotta be off my meds for the next week due to having some wonderful side effects. So, unmedicated post-ADHD diagnosis Rob era begins now.
Seeing the latest round of industry layoffs, it's just making me feel that, as comic creators, we all really do need to unionise.
Maya is one of the best in the business. Professional, kind, and always learning. She was a delight to work with and, in my opinion - as a writer with a ton of marketing/pr/biz dev experience - would be a great addition to any publisher looking to up their game. Hire her!
Hey folks, after nearly 4 years at Mad Cave, I was let go this morning. It was a wonderful time getting to work with an amazing list of creators. If we have worked together, please stay in touch. I am available for freelance editing and would love to work with you all in the future.

So the last few months I’ve been talking to a regional distributor in the ME about doing some local variants for Absolute Batman. Pitched a few concepts and we chose this one to go with. Sadly didn’t make the final cut for editorial reasons but here it is anyway

Or, play Tau? Fish based space communists!
I am genuinely glad I took some time to just enjoy reading some books for the sake of it this weekend. And I wasn't disappointed.
I have needed some time to just dive into comics. Working as a letterer I do get the opportunity to read so many books as I work on them, but there is sometimes a certain level of detachment, and you forget just what it was that drew you into the medium/line of work at times.
I also read the first 2 volumes of @kierongillen.bsky.social @stephaniehans.bsky.social @claytoncowles.bsky.social & @rianhughes.bsky.social DIE.
It is simply stunning stuff. Rich. Dark. Contemplative. Epic in scale & scope. Raw & honest. I didn't know just how much I needed this book.
This weekend, I FINALLY read Year Zero Vol 0 and Vol 1 from @benjaminpercy.bsky.social @danielkraus.com #RamonRosanas #GoranSudĹľuka #LeeLoughridge #MiroslavMrva and @salcipriano.bsky.social.
Intense, character driven zombie apocalypse comics done PERFECTLY. incredible work all round.
Look, let’s be honest. The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one…
Read some comics. Ate some cake. Disconnected for a while. Now the plan is to chill and curl up with the most beautiful woman in the world and watch the first couple of episodes of From.
My 10 year old son is back with a new game he has coded & designed from the ground up. This is Pico-Dash, his version of Geometry Dash.
Once again, I would love it if you could give it a share around!

Caught up with @denizcamp.bsky.social @stipanmorian.bsky.social @matthollingsworth.com & Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou's Bleeding Hearts #01-03 and it was MAGNIFICENT.
Fucking hell!
These fucking ghouls need death. Simple as.
What the fuck do you say to this as a man, except, we cannot be trusted whatsoever.
It is vile. It is reprehensible. It is absolutely disgusting.
I cannot get my head around it, Rich.
It is completely and utterly vile. Women are right not to trust men whatsoever.
Given the stakes “all men” is the is the rational position.
This is why “not all men” is no good. No, it’s not all, but it’s a hell of a lot and we can’t for some reason have them facially tattooed with a warning.
Content warning before you google and read the story.
It is horrifying. Proceed with caution, especially if you’ve suffered SA.
Men are not safe to be around. If the men women trust most can commit this horror, what hope do women have around men they don't know? The answer is none. No woman is safe alone around a man, because men have proven ourselves untrustworthy.
The sooner society realizes this the better.

A new report reveals monthly, 62 million men, mostly from USA, visit a website that teaches them how to drug & rape their spouses, prostitute them to other men, & broadcast it online for other men to pay & watch.
Here's the hard truth...
