Hello again! long time no see! (sorry) let’s get right back to business…
My latest tshirt design for Baltimore’s Pizza Party Printing is THE LABYRINTH, full of leering goblins and everyone’s favorite tricky Goblin King. It’s available for pre-order now (and only for a very limited time), but you can also fight your way through (hopefully minimal) dangers untold and hardships unnumbered to the Pizza Party After Dark movie night at the Ottobar and watch The Labyrinth with us, say hello, have a slice of pizza, hang out, buy a shirt, save the stolen babe, what have you. Event details here!
Here’s my latest illustration for The New Yorker Bar Tab column about Soju Haus in Koreatown (a place I have to visit). Thanks to AD Deanna Donegan. You can read the article online here.
I got NOBROW 6 in the mail the other day and it is awesome to see it in person. I cannot believe how much talent is packed into this thing! It's really a gorgeous book, and everyone should grab a copy.
There are lots of things to love about springtime. One being buttercups, which may be the cutest flower. One thing not to love about springtime, is the explosion in the stink bug population. I used to not mind them. They don't do anything, they're slow and catch-able so you can banish them from your house. No big deal! But in the building I work at they are taking over! To the point that one found its way onto my head, and now I mind them a little more. Meanwhile, a coffee cup full of buttercups picked for me by one of my bosses' kids sits on my desk, and I just wished that if anything was going to be in my hair, why couldn't it be those little flowers instead of an imposing stink bug...

Big news indeed! Check out Jimmy Giegerich's excellent work, now in cartoon form! More episodes are on their way too!
Big news! My comic, Executioner and Friend, has been turned into a cartoon by the fine folks at Mondo Media! You should check it out, and if you dig it, like, share, and comment so that I can keep making more!
Also, like Executioner and Friend on Facebook if you feel like it!

"Greetings dear reader, fellow student of the arcane such as you must be. You have selected this guide in your search for a spirit ally, a familiar..."
I'm psyched to announce my newest zine debuting at SPX this September, Warlow's Guide to Wizards, Sorceri & Familiars Arcane. It's a helpful tome for young magi as they make the important choice of a familiar that will accompany them throughout their magical growth. Featuring illustrations of notable witches and wizards and their partners, along with specimen charts and helpful notes from the "author" himself, the great wizard Warlow.
Printed on Cougar natural off-white stock with 3-color interiors and a screen-printed cover. I'm having tons of fun creating these characters and I'm excited for you to see the zine in its entirety at the expo. Hope to see you there!
(Check it out on SPX's debut page here.)
Today's warm-up: this neon swamp grump 🐸
I love your artwork so, so much. It's so beautiful and you're so talented!! When I am financed I will got to your store and buy everything. EVERYTHING. :) <3 <3 :D
Thank you so, so much! That's really lovely to hear :) And I haven't updated my Society 6 store in a little while, so if there's something not for sale on there that you want to be on sale, please let me know! I'm just here to oblige...
The trashcan droid from Star Wars, whose name is apparently Gonk? (dumb) Jimmy and I had a moment when we discovered that, growing up, we each felt sorry for this lame little droid stuffed in the corner of that sand crawler because he was so ugly and all the other droids were probably mean to him. That never stopped me from making fun of him either though.
