Today's warmup: trying to draw the JLI from memory (to diminishing results)

There's a lot of great TV out there, but only JUSTIFIED Season 4 Ep 11 gives us: ✅ The standoff at Raylan and Boyd's desiccated high school ✅ Constable Bob vs Yolo ✅ Johnny's pathetic, worthless love confession to Ava ✅ "Holy shit. They circled the wagons."

What's the best episode of TV you've ever watched?

Flash Gordon isn't usually the most relatable character in comic strips*, but he is here.

I had a long conversation about storytelling this weekend. A friend pointed out these panels from Akimi Yoshida's Banana Fish v8 as a real cool example of the strength of abstraction. Eiji's basically going D: and :D, and our minds add real feeling/detail. Creator/reader collaboration via simplicity

I talked with Comics Journal's William Schwartz about FLASH GORDON! Topics include: -My decision to bench Ming the Merciless -The origins of new characters like Bok the Dragonman and Bones Malock -The other comics I look to for day-to-day inspiration on this long, strange project

Flash Gordon artist Dan Schkade on rebooting a classic: 'It’s all fresh ground' - The Comics Journalwww.tcj.com As the man behind the King Features reboot of Flash Gordon in newspapers, Schkade has wowed readers with a fast-paced, action heavy style that works surprisingly well in the comic-a-day format.

Just got a preview of the "perfect crime" anthology me and @cattifer.bsky.social did a 'lil comic for. I'm super excited for everyone to see the whole thing when it drops

Suddenly remembered this: A Lavender Jack covid PSA I made for Webtoon during the early days of the pandemic. This was back during the "wiping down the groceries" era, but I stand behind anything that encourages hand washing

@danschkade.bsky.social Thank you for my new pulp crush. Holy crap, what a frame!

This week in FLASH GORDON, Team Earth mixed it up with Ming's foxhounds — The Death Patrol. They stuck out in my readthrough of the original strips because (a) they look great and (b) they have the hardest name imaginable. Here's Alex Raymond's 1941 design next to the new take I used for our strip:
