Content warning: fictional torture

 
There's a few days left on this anthology that I'm a part of, and quite a chunk of change to go. I'd really appreciate it if you could check it out or share it further afield, not just for myself, but for the other amazing creatives involved in the making. # # #

My friend @feff is featuring in this comics anthology Kickstarter, alongside many other talented artists and writers. They are just over half way funded, with only five days to go, and if you want to chuck a few quid their way, it would be great to see this succeed! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thirdbearpress/boxes-comic-magazine-3

Panel crop of Poet leaning over a desk with a military knife pointing at him, covered in red blackgum leaves. with five pieces of paper blowing away. On the papers is himself as Isaac, naked, cowering, then his disembodied cyborg body reaching through the pages to get Isaac. The farthest floating pages depict The Senator, Mary, and Gabriel.
 
The newest paper I coauthored is actually a comics-relayed paper with my amigazo Roger Freedman, about the Physics Comics and Stories we did this year! https://tsds2024.sciencesconf.org/561638. # # # # #
 
How would a dragon wear a toque?

I know a balaclava isn't a toque, but someone suggested it and I thought it was fun.

Last poll, the hoard of scarves narrowly won out over the super-long Doctor Who-style scarf.

Cast yer votes!

# # # # # #
Five images of a doofy-looking dragon making different attempts at wearing winter hats. 1: Holes for horns and ears. 2: Giant hat covers everything. 3: Toque covers just the horns. 4: Toque covers just the top of the head, with socks covering the horns and a tiny toque over the nose horn. 5: Blaaclava with horn and ear holes.
 
The Purpose of Life
(Mini Comic Monday # 152)
# # # #
Title: The Purpose of Life (Mini Comic Monday # 152) Description: Comic strip made of 3 identically sized, vertical panels. In the first panel there’s a cosmic being with a head like the sun and stars for nipples; cosmic dust covering the crotch area. Text in the first panel reads “Children of the Universe, rejoice!” The second panel continues the image from the first. We see the hands of the cosmic being holding a small planet with a moon. The planet and the moon are floating above the hand. There’s text that reads “For the purpose of Life…” The third and final panel zooms in on the planet in the palm of the cosmic being. The planet is the familiar little blue marble known as Earth. There’s text that reads”… is to Live.”  Mini Comic Monday is a series of experiments, short-form comic strips. New strips shared every Monday on Patreon, then made public and shared on socials 28 days later.
 
On this week's page of BICYCLE BOY, the Senator treats us to more of her excellent social policies; assuring us there is nothing objectionable or destructive about her blossoming city state.

The Senator stands, in the middle of a crowd of nurses and doctors staring back at you in fear or dismay at your terrible choice to speak up to our benevolent leader. She is singled out by leaf-like, gothic framing.
 
New comic is cooking. This is a contract work and I was hired to draw the pages, so story and character are not mine. Either way I’m really excited about this.

I’ll share more on this when it’s possible to unveil more about this project.

The Senator struts past a nurse. "You look beautiful today," she says, and the nurse looks down bashfully. "Th-thank you, Senator!" she manages, all flustered. In the background, Cortez scowls at the display.

The Last Band On Earth is LIVE on Kickstarter!!!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/emwill/the-last-band-on-earth-a-graphic-novel-by-elaine-m-will
This is a graphic novel I've been working on since 2019, and is the story of a noise rock band trapped in a semi-post-apocalyptic city ruled by demons. The band wants to escape so they can go on tour in whatever might be left of the world - and this whole thing may or may not be a thinly-veiled metaphor for depression.
# # #
Promotional graphic for The Last Band On Earth Kickstarter. Text reads "Kickstarter Just Launched - The Complete Series!" There is a 3D mockup of the book, the cover artwork is bright yellow and features a rocker type young woman with pink hair wearing a backwards baseball cap, denim jacket, black leggings, knee-high leather boots, and a white t-shirt, with a bass guitar strapped to her back. She is sitting on a pile of broken instruments and looking at the viewer.

A drawing of three mutant figures on a desolate landscape, two of them seem to be moaning and flailing their long arms around, they are green with red/orange scarves. It is coloured to resemble an old crudely printed comic book.

Ace and their weird and unpractical (but fast) vehicle Long-Sail 🏎️ 💨
From my summer micro comic:
https://mastodon.art/@leavt/113056897528979869

# # # # # #
watercolor drawing of Ace, a young racer with dark skin and short dark curly hair, standing in their racing outfit: a large high vis top with short sleeves, black with pink accents and a pink triangle logo, pink gloves and goggles, black trousers with pink knee pads and big black boots. They wear a gold ring in one ear and smirks. <br />The description says: ACE (they/them). Champion. Is popular. Has a girlfriend (Roos). Too confident.<br />Next is a drawing of Long-Sail, a long 4 wheels vehicle looking like a sail car, but modified with big motorcylce wheels at the front and rear with radial engines, a heavy triangular structure holds the lateral wheels. The body is painted pink and a long pink flag hangs form a pole.
 
dehydration leads to disorientation….which is why there is always some water in the coracle

Detective Tso has set sail again. Carrot swords come in handy, and there is talk of a statue being unveiled 🙂

The front cover of an illustrated comic/zine, with detective Tso sailing in a coracle that is covered in plants. The sky is full of leaves.
Here is detective Tso swimming through the floodwaters, armed with carrot swords and a determined expression.
Tso has now switched on the head torch, and is inspecting each speck of the flood with a magnifying glass.
Detective Tso (or should that be doctor Tso) is now busy reviving Oat the owlet back in the coracle.

Comic page crop. First panel is Isaac sweating profusely and struggling to do a pushup with bad form. Second panel is a floor POV shot of his wet face and Mary looming overhead. "Tsk! You're asymmetrical," she admonishes, "The militia must be immaculate! If the Senator sees your imperfection... she will have you cleansed!"
