Glass is also by Dan.
@RumerMatt can people sill order this stuff from the website?
I'd grab them if you couldn't go.

I keep this Skottie Young Tank Girl piece on my phone for inspiration because it’s so fun. Also the colors are rumored to be by his longtime colorist Beaulieu & I’d LOVE to color my comics like this.
It’s just overall an inspiration on how I’d like to make my comics look.

Some dope Jorge Corona art I keep on my phone for inspiration.
Also color inspiration. Sarah Stern colored the Peacemaker & Blue Beetle pieces & I love her work. Her & Beaulieu (Lobo colors) inspire my coloring a lot.

DaleFest
I’m thinking about doing a small fan meetup, like a dinner or bar, in Toronto, if I can get @44numskull to go. Where would Dale like to go?
Look at my boy! He is finding his way onto more shelves!
@basedartdept he's found his spot by my Hulk collection.

CALLING ALL COMIC BOOK CREATORS.
Attached is a link to a news article about MESHAUN TUBBS, who is a huge comic book fan fighting the ultimate evil... cancer.
I've already reached out to his mom about the possibility of putting together an art auction or developing a crowd funded comic book with the proceeds going to the family and she's excited and 100% on board.
Let's all turn out IN FORCE for Meshaun and his family. This isn't about politics or sides, this is about a shared love of comics and fighting the ULTIMATE FIGHT.
Interested parties can either DM me here on X or email me directly: [email protected].
Thank you.
