My Superman tale

When my phone transcripts a message from my dentist, it reveals reality…

2 copies of Jacques And The Great Art Theft sit basking in sun light. they look resplendid in their canary yellow covers.

My beautiful hand holds open a page of the Jacques comic. In this sequence Jacques is descending from rooftops gracefully only to be foiled by a pesky pigeon.

Once again my ageless and delicate fingers hold open a page of the Jacques comic, in which our titular hero is springing through the air in a perfect somersault to catch their errant umbrella

My withered and taloned claw like hand holds open the first 2 pages of the Jacques comic. It's an establishing shot that shows that Jacques lives in Paris, lives in a shabby apartment and is struggling to find his gloves.

I'm working on a new Jacques book of short stories. But in order to do that I need to sell some of the old books so that I can pay my colourist!

I probably sound like a freak but I keep saying "adult graphic novels need their 'Bone' to really take off" and if PRH would like to give Rama a 6-figure advance to make one that might just be the moment we've been waiting for

surreal digital painting of a prison of flesh grabbing at and tearing at the face of an iridescent sculpture trying its best to wrest free of the prison, meanwhile an abstract faceless being gawks at it, arms not making sense.

DON'T STEAL MY FACE

They're just bringing together the Avengers of comics academics and letting you watch their discussion for free? Incredible!!

Comic cover with the title "What Does HIV Mean?" by Jordan Collver & Jaime Garcia Iglesias featuring a patchwork quilt.

Comic Page 1: A young man accompanies his boyfriend in a clinic waiting room. His phone pings with a reminder for an upcoming Queer Sewing Club session. He kisses his boyfriend goodbye outside the clinic and arrives at the sewing club, holding a Vintage City bag and waving to the instructor. He pulls out an old denim jacket from the bag and and excitedly tries it on. It's covered in badges/patches and a bit tattered but still cool. He feels good in it, but the instructor notices and appears shocked with recognition. TEXT: Most gay men in the UK have been touched by HIV in the UK in some way, whether they live with the virus or not. A central strand running… through the community… but unique to each person. Today, people with HIV can live full and healthy lives. Although there is still no cure… [background sign]: CLINIC thanks to medication like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and effective anti-retroviral treatments, HIV is a preventable and manageable condition. [phone message]: Reminder: Queer Sewing Club - 1hr And people living with HIV can’t pass on the virus. [building sign]: CLINIC ENTRANCE For many young gay men who have grown up having these options, it’s the only reality they’ve known. [handbag]: VINTAGE CITY “When I first came out… coincided with PrEP becoming more available.” (Caleb, 30, white, HIV– on PrEP) Clinic visits for testing, prevention and treatment are part of everyday life. “The issues of sexual health […] lots of people in the queer community go through as a rite of passage” (Tyler, 35yo, HIV neg) Seen as a matter of routine and responsibility. But it wasn’t always this way.

Comic Page 2: A colourful 80s flashback of the instructor as a younger man wearing the same jacket... it was his! He looks up anxiously at an imposing hospital building and is ushered in through the back entrance by medical staff in PPE. He sits alone in the waiting room. We next see him standing in the middle of a lively dancefloor surrounded by men dancing and chatting. He turns to his right and sees a man unravelling like a spool of thread, followed by a closeup of him stitching a badge onto his jacket with that same colour thread. He turns to his left to see another man in a different colour also unravelling, followed by another badge in the same colour. He is left holding several different coloured threads with a jacket covered in badges. Now he is sitting at a table with a small group of other men who are happily painting some protest signs. Some chat, while one lovingly puts some paint on another's nose. TEXT: Far from it, when HIV was first identified in the early 80s… [sign]: HOSPITAL it was a matter of life and, very often, death. [sign]: STAFF ONLY [sign]: DON’T DIE OF IGNORANCE For many gay men who lived through the 80s and 90s, HIV represents fear, loss, grief – “The AIDS Crisis.” “Literally loads of my mates died in the eighties… I was just going onto the scene at that time and the people that you would bump into…” “…suddenly they just wouldn’t be there…” “and no-one really talked about it.” (Brian, 56yo, white) “It was a fear-filled time… But…” “…there were still times when people showed incredible love to each other… I think it would be wrong to see the whole of the 80s and 90s in one big black cloak of doom and gloom. It wasn’t that.” (Paul, 64, white)

I've just been given the go-ahead to share the new comic I made with @jgarciaiglesias.bsky.social about his research!

If you wish to learn about Canadian pop music this song should be one you listen to. And what you will learn from it is that Canadians in the 90s were horny. youtu.be/NuHeTxZxgSs

Ok, well I did finally watch Midsommar, that was good, though I wish I hadn't had the climax partially spoiled for me (and THIS is why I need to hurry the fuck up and watch Hereditary)

Years ago @mikeduncan.bsky.social told me "you can rewrite shit but you can't rewrite nothing" and it's made every draft easier since.

mixed media art piece of a snarling jaguar against a textured red background, and a skull hovering over its head. a halo hangs behind the skull.

photo of a mixed media art piece. a hyena with a small skeleton dangling from its mouth against a red background. gently obscured in the background are more hyenas and spots where eyes may be

Ink, pencil, and watercolor painting on paper. A muzzled dog in a field of poppies, the muzzle the same color as the dog. A snake skeleton writhes around the dog and buries itself in the dog's chest. The artwork is bordered in black and gold with a dog's skull hanging on the top and the jaw at the bottom.

closeup of a grey canine head, snarling and devouring a snake skeleton, silhouetted, textured like gelatin.
