@Masters of the Universe preoccupied my brain as much as KISS, Star Wars and Marvel Comics when I was a kid. Trap Jaw was a fearsome villain with a robotic arm onto which he could slot a wide range of different weapons.

Revisiting the Ghosts of Inktobers Past. A time la Revisiting the Ghosts of Inktobers Past.
A time lapse of my Inktober sketch of the X-Men's Nightcrawler from a few years ago.

Fun fact: When the new X-Men launched in 1975, creators Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum considered Nightcrawler the star of the team.
It was John Byrne, who joined as artist a couple of years later, that made Wolverine the epicentre of the mutant group.

Having narrated his early life in Manchester in quite some detail in #TalesofTheSmiths, and having seen him live a few times, I finally got to experience @Morrisseyofficial perform in his hometown to a roaring, massive local crowd.

Repost: @MFiffe
My prints just reached Michel. 💀⚡✒️

I illustrated this COPRA ensemble, feat. Vitas' villainous troupe, almost a decade ago. Now that Michel Fiffe @MFiffe has concluded his 50-issue COPRA saga (Death of COPRA is out as we speak from @ImageComics), I decided it was time to greytone it and send it out to Michel! 💀⚡✒️
Really look forward to his next project!

Today marks the 45th anniversary of the passing of Today marks the 45th anniversary of the passing of Ian Curtis, the unforgettable voice and lyricist of Joy Division. Curtis played a key role in my graphic biography #TalesofTheSmiths, where I revealed a little-known chapter: his brief but genuine friendship with Morrissey, sparked after they both attended the infamous Sex Pistols gig at the Lesser Trade Hall in Manchester in 1976, which a handful of people witnessed and then formed a series of legendary bands.

Here are some panels from the comic, originally published online from 2012–2014, and now collected in the 464-page Tales of The Smiths (Omnibus Press), available in bookstores worldwide.

Coloured the Star Wars x Fourth World poster that Coloured the Star Wars x Fourth World poster that I illustrated for May the Fourth.
May the Source Be With You! ✨ 
Star Wars was "inspired" wholesale by Jack Kirby's Fourth World saga and I thought it would be fitting to sketch out a quick homage to both space fantasies on May the 4th!

The homage is based on Tom Jung's original Star Wars poster from 1977.
