All things Extraction with Ande Parks New Extraction comics coming from Ignition Press and new films/tv on the way as well!

I sat down to talk about all things Extraction (reprint, film, and new comics!) with @andeparks.bsky.social Coming very soon from @ignitionpress.bsky.social! open.substack.com/pub/articles...

I miss listening to words. As an inker I always had something on. A movie I'd already seen, music, talk radio, etc. As a writer it has to be rain sounds or soundtracks. No words. It gets... lonely.

I can’t tell you how important this is to me after being absent (as a writer) from store shelves for so long. Let’s go!

Bardot can go screw, but leaving Bud Cort out of the memoriam last night is some bullshit.

I will have loads of pre-drawn pieces and published pages that I've inked for sale. Cool stuff, reasonably priced.

My boundless charm remains, as always, free of charge.

See you soon!

I don't charge for quickie head sketches, provided you have a sketchbook/piece of paper available. Again, the subject is my choice.

I'm not doing at-show commissions. I have new books out and I want to spend my time talking to people about those projects, not bent over my table drawing/inking.

Some info, just because I have a few convention appearances on the horizon:

I never charge for signatures.

I do not charge for remarques, but if I'm drawing on your comic I'm probably drawing what I damn well want to.

Gilbert Gottfried was right. Ferris Bueller is a raging douche nozzle.

They keep getting new, good ones at Aldi!

It's "First Snow" at the moment.

Stare deep into the bookshelf mirror, for it reveals all!

Went through the studio bookshelves today, taking perverse joy in dumping books by creators I’ve decided were d-bags.

Covers by Dan Panosian, Dave Wachter and Fernando Blanco. Dave is the co-creator on Bad Thoughts, and he is amazing!

It’s been a long time since I had new comics out as a writer. That changes soon & in a huge way! The graphic novel that kicked off the Extraction franchise, back in print & in color! And the zero issue for my first new creator-owned series in years, Bad Thoughts. All from @ignitionpress.bsky.social

The NY Times dared me to spend a solid ten minutes staring at this Klimt masterpiece this morning. I could zoom and pan, but I had to stay focused on the Woman in Gold for the duration. What a bright, glorious way to start my day in these dark times.

Remember when portfolios were a thing? I loved them. Dug these out of the basement today. Gorgeous work by Adams, Anderson, Chaykin, Golden, Jones, Kirby, Sienkiewicz, Wrightson and more. Most portfolios were signed. Such a lovely way for artists to share their work.

The world was saved because a human being didn't trust a computer.

I was confused by the other credits, including my man Hester. There must have been a backup story.

Good lord... gasp. This Jack Davis cover is being auctioned at Heritage, and I just spent a full half hour studying the scan. So much genius here, but what keeps drawing me in is the contrast of line in the two figures, and the inking on the background guy. So casually perfect. He made it look easy.

I love it so much. Here's the page I own. Tones were done on a separate sheet.

Get low - Robert Duvall Speech Scene YouTube video by MrSatanspirit

I defy anyone to watch this clip (from Get Low) and say that any screen actor ever did it better. #robertduvall www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWth...

He'd be a legend for that and The Apostle alone.

RIP to my favorite film actor.

Y’all remember that the Joker is in The Thin Man, right?
