Had a great time at the @nationalcartoonists showcase! Hope this becomes a new norm at the Reuben Awards conference. Especially with the Scholastic event bringing in TONS of families and kids who LOVE BOOKS!! 😍📚
Hi from the Reuben Awards conference! I can only describe it as wonderful chaotic whirlwind. To be so focused on a lecture by THE Jim Davis, that you don't realize you're sitting at a table with THE Patrick McDonnell. 😱🤩 More to come when I come back down from this heavenly cartooning cloud!
It's almost time! The Reuben Awards & conference! Partnering with the Billy Ireland Museum, the National Cartoonist Society is holding a Cartoonist Showcase, and you can find me there this Aug 8th! nationalcartoonists....

Doing my part, as usual. H-CAN's "ArtSquad" (I'm a co-leader) got organized, got some posterboard, got busy making signs, and got on the streets for #JohnLewis Weekend of Action. Informing and motivation voters. Nov. 3rd, y'all. Get Ready.
Something to remember when the president blathers on about his rigged election nonsense tonight on your TV. He doesn't care about you and your problems. He only cares about his own power and grift machine that is the oval office.
The powers that be WANT us wasting our time defining communism vs socialism vs Marxism vs capitalism. The US is a mix as most countries are, the lines are blurry, but what's NOT blurry is who is indebted to the corporate wealthy class vs who represents the PEOPLE. OpenSecrets.org shows you the 💰💰💰
It's so hot... The data centers will use up your bottled water too. It's so hot... The snowballs that republicans will bring to the floor of congress to "disprove" climate change, melted in advance. It's so hot... For once trump isn't lying when he mumbles something about America being hot.

Z&F is nearly 20 years old-TOO OLD for an exhausting Kickstarter campaign. Ok-I'M too old 😆 BUT I still need help funding this book. So I'm making this VERY simple. Just subscribe/donate to my Ko-Fi page, or pre-order the book! Buy something else from the store, it all helps! ko-fi.com/dgriffstudios
Sometimes as a creator, you just find timeless lightning in a bottle.. and Zorphbert & Fred was one of those #comics for me! So for the 20th anniversary, I'm bringing them back in a best-of color collection! With a brand new story! Can you help me fund this project? http://ko-fi.com/dgr...
In my happy place. Friday night, deck drinks, ball game on, colorizing comics. CHEERS🍻
Have you heard?😲👽🐶 Z&F are back with a NEW story, in a best-of COLOR collection! Coming in 2027! But- I need a little help to fund the printing. So this is a NON-kickstarter-kickstarter, being held on my Ko-Fi page. Chip in what you can, or pre-order the book itself! ko-fi.com/dgriffstudios
Have I mentioned that you can PRE-ORDER the Z&F Best-of, Full-color Collection on Ko-Fi? It helps fund the printing of this awesome book, coming in 2027... and then you'll be one of the first to receive it! ko-fi.com/s/aabda356f5
Aliens in your email, AIIEEEE! Subscribe on Ko-Fi to get the COLOR Z&F origin story in your inbox. If you can, donate to help me get this color collection printed-- and get MORE comics on Fridays! WOOT! ko-fi.com/dgriffstudios
Hold the phone. And my beer. It's nearly been TWENTY YEARS? 😱 I didn't mean to rhyme there but all the same, Zorphbert & Fred is 20 in 27, thus it's time they graced us with their presence in a full color collection featuring a new story! Learn more & help out: Ko-fi.com/dgriffstudios

Got to see the #Guardians win one against the Phils and disappoint my friend Lori. How about Kwan??
Welp, tomorrow's the big day. Getting some more meddlesome organs YEETED, nbd. The appendix started all this back in November, I blame him. Gallbladder, DON'T get any ideas. So of course, I drew a cartoon to commemorate. #Endometriosis #LadyParts
After my "Dictator-Tot" protest sign went viral, I decided it was time to open this shop to raise some money for good orgs like @indivisible.org You can snag some of my protest art on shirts, mugs, stickers & more- AND donate to orgs trying to oust this fascist regime! www.zazzle.com/store/artsqu...
