HIGH STRANGENESS HC arrived today. So proud to be part of this amazing tone of extraterrestrial experiences. It printed beautifully. And is really the best way to experience my Bigfoot story with Noah Bailey. Out now from @oni-press.bsky.social & Spectre Vision.
Since the last portfolio day I've also written a HELLRAISER one-shot. Hire me to write more horror plz k thx.
How people are gonna look at me after they read The Onanistic Ritual.
A sad fella you’ll meet just in time for the holidays. @danielgete.bsky.social

It’s a SCREAM, baby. Thrilled to announce I have a story in the incredible @2000ad.bsky.social Halloween special. This October, Mattia Monaco and I tackle A.I. psychosis as we make some slapdash renovations to Maxwell Tower in “The 13th Floor”.
THE PATRON #1 from @cjward.bsky.social & @johnjpearson.bsky.social is a brilliant and horrifying look at the sacrifices artists make for their art. It really spoke to me & my days battling imposter syndrome and the whole issue is packed with gorgeously rendered art/atrocities. Don't miss this one!
