A page from a comic. The famous Triassic Cuddle fossil is shown. Text reads: 250 million years ago, the Earth experienced an apocalyptic event called "The Great Dying," during which 90% of life was wiped out and harsh desert environments spread across the planet. During this period, an injured amphibian called Broomistega sough refuge in a burrow of a sleeping therapsid called Thrinaxodon. The two creatures died in a flash flood, forgotten until their fossils were discovered in the present day, together for eternity. Sources: "Synchroton Reveals Early Triassic Odd Couple..." by Fernandez et al. "Locked in Time" by Lomax & Nicholls.

Noooo there's an infamous con in my city that has a cosplay show stage in the middle of the AA and serves alcohol and from the harrowing stories I've heard the artists hate it. Praying for everyone in ECCC AA that there are no obnoxious loud shows nor obnoxious drunken behavior π¬
A photo of a taxidermy dodo, taken from a lower central angle so that its mouth its eyes look a little sad, its forehead wrinkles are prominent above its beak, and its mouth is downturned on each side of its beak. Text overlay reads "Monday mood."
Extraordinary, extinct, but not exempt from a case of the Mondays.
Donβt worry dodo, we feel it too.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Celebrating finally completing assembling the 1000 unit print run of Sending This Message Was Important to Us today!
This comic uses an experimental clear UV reactive riso ink I only had access to for about a month, so I printed as many copies as I could and had to live with the consequences lol.
Flippin thru a big stack of old furry comics i bought and this got my ass good
I make a lot of unusual printed comics, which comes with the problem: how do I show off this thing properly online?
Here's my attempt at making a webpage for Sending This Message Was Important to Us, which features clear UV reactive ink: roseberrycomix.com/comics/sendi...
