Made a post out of this for clarity. Do get in touch! This could be a lot of fun.

Is anyone else using gmail noticing a huge increase of late in e-mails from other gmail accounts ending up in Spam? Frustrating!

Press pass for Thought Bubble sorted. True story. It was only around the year before the pandemic that I started asking for one. Didn’t want to make a fuss before then. I am very British.

Some garage band just got mad at me for saying AI flyers suck and yelled about artists being entitled and that they'll stop using AI when 'rates get reasonable from humans.' My patience for these people is 6 feet under.

Anyway, just your semi-regular reminder that no matter how many times I’m referred to as a comics journalist I am not one. I quite like references to me as a comics activist though. Far more in keeping with what we do at BF.

So, anyway, a few weeks ago I put a small pile of print copies aside in a safe place, as comics I'd like to review for Thought Bubble, and I bet you've already worked out the punchline for this post...

Again, if we were doing all of this for the clicks I'd be uploading all that Marvel/Star Wars crossover preview art to the site right now. I'm not. Because writing a review of a self-published comic which I doubt has a print run of even 100 copies is the priority. This is how it works at BF Towers.

Students made their first minicomics in my intro making course - mostly standard format but this student, a first time maker(!), did something so off the charts I’m still reeling from it! & he made like 12 of them for his classmates! A paper engineering feat of flipbookery as well as killer drawing!
