Hello! I'm a UK Flash animator, came up through the Bristol crowd and now work remotely on eCards full time. I post mostly comics related stuff and my ramblings. Less artwork than I’d like, I need to get on that. #aboutMe #introduction

I’m reading Reinventing Comics by Scott McLeod

This is also my fear.

I’m doing a full Powers reread right now. Dug into my boxes for the issues- I came on with #7 after the first trade. Really enjoying it and so happy you guys are back.

Found that very tough today. Could not see the word until I put the letters in every order possible.

I hope you’ve heard the latest The Rest Is Giant Robots in which Furman & Wildman discuss G2’s art at length.

Tom Evans @tomwe.bsky.social · 24d

It’s rare I see a G1 panel I don’t recognise and this is one of those. It suffers from the same thing Pat Lee was criticised for regarding the position of Prime’s head. Still nice and dynamic though!

Woke up to discover that Graham Linehan has cancelled his Netflix subscription because he found out we have a non-binary ROBOT in (the GLAAD-nominated) Transformers Earthspark.

Women's sports AND Transformers? Who knew he had so many interests? How does he find the time?

i genuinely think these ppl are unwell.

Libs of Tik Tok @libsoftiktok
IT GETS WORSE...

Transformers Earthspark, a show for CHILDREN on @Netflix, also promotes the use of made-up pronouns like "they/them."

Parents, this is what your children are watching.

CANCEL NETFLIX

Done

The TF one at least finished, even if the newer IDW stories were not wrapped up. I also bought the Batman one, which just stopped when Eaglemoss went into liquidation.

Tom Evans @tomwe.bsky.social · Sep 19

Yes but only 20 of those were the content of this kickstarter. I’m so glad I’m out of the Partwork game now the 2000ad one is done*

*oh wait I still get Combat Patrol.

So good! Is that Tuck in the back?

Tom Evans @tomwe.bsky.social · Sep 19

My son (11) began reading the series with me but quickly fell off with all the violence. I would not have wanted to share this issue with him were the suicide that clear, so maybe that's the kind of thought that influenced what I perceive as a change. It's just not how I wanted the run to go out.

Tom Evans @tomwe.bsky.social · Sep 19

I'm so glad I wasn't the only person troubled by the Starscream scene in #24. And I also agree there must have been editorial interference. For me, all that was missing to make it work would have been the gun barrel against his chin. Not that I want to read that scene at all, mind. 1/…
