Queer Kaiju #1- Gargantuas

Make Love, Not War

If I do another Dongs set I will probably do one of these two crossings swords, lol.

Sanda and Gaira, from War of the Gargantuas.

The last quarter’s stickers are a little late, they’ll be here shortly!

MCM- Anthony Ramos/the Hood

it’s Man Crush Monday!

Anthony Ramos has been in a lot of stuff, but seriously he’s never caught my eye until playing the villain in the IronHeart series, the Hood. What’s not to like about a series with a hot villain pretending to be a Robin Hood with a queer-ish band of merry people… and his magic cloak is giving him the wicked veins which he’s covering up with tattoos that don’t really cover them up, but look good on him in any case. One of the more interesting villains i...

All Monsters Attack commission

Recently I did this commission for episode art of a podcast called Skreeonk! Which is a couple of gay guys talking about Godzilla movies. It’s a lot of fun, and when I heard about them commissioning artists for the podcast art, I raised my hand. I had for some time wanted to draw the characters from this particular film,2025-07-12 17:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post

The Goat of Mendes

I kinda took note of this character from Hammer’s “the Devil Rides Out” from 1968, a film I have yet to see (it’s not streaming anywhere) when I saw a gif from it and was impressed by the actor’s rack. Eddie Powell was more of a stuntman. He was Christopher Lee’s stunt double, and did xenomorph stunts in the first two Alien films. His acting roles are usually in full costume/prosthetics, with roles in Flash Gordon, Legend, and in this film as the Devil.

I realize that this i...

Man Crush for Monday

I’ve been posting for #mancrushmonday on social medias and wanting to have newer drawings than I have to choose from, so I will be doing them fairly regularly and posting them here beforehand. The last time I had a noticeable bump in growth to my Patreon I was doing something similar, so fingers crossed this will get some new patrons as well. Patreon has been my main source of income since closing my tattoo shop and it needs to grow to pull its own weight!

It has also been a while si...

Make a terrible comic day!

I had this day (June 24) marked in my calendar. I don’t know how terrible this is, but I really wanted to try to bang out a full page in one day. I had an idea for Mitch to do a Criterion closet spoof that ties into Dinosaurs, but also this one for Doug where he can talk about a favorite “classic” porno movie.

Maybe a terrible idea? I like it.

It’s very peculiar to be drawing Mitch a normal flesh tone.

Sticker redux- Beef #2

I can’t remember the last time I did this: redrew a sticker design… but here it is and I like this much better. Now the set is complete and ready to go. This set started out as just “Midnight Movie”, but along the way became glam, rock n roll, sexuality, and 3 movies from a couple year period. They all featured Frankenstein’s monster characters too, which was an early through line to the set that now only Beef fits with (the one in Tommy is easily my least favorite part of that movi...

Gabriel - the Wolves of Kromer

Hey all! I survived my surgery, and am on the mend. Here’s a bit of fan art I felt the urge to do, to get back into the swing of things. This is a character from a film called “the Wolves of Kromer”, a super low budget queer film from the late ‘90s. It’s poorly written poorly shot and poorly acted, but it had potential. There’s a central analogy that’s way too on the nose, but the “wolves” (/queers) are interesting,...

This page works without dialog, right?

The first few times I had drawn the Ghost Skater in color, he had a “normal” hue. It wasn’t until the back cover of Hard to Swallow #4 that I first decided to make him blue (inspired by Toshio from Ju-on/the Grudge). I think canonically he was inspired to change color after seeing blue ghosts, and by this time he’s forgotten that he was ever a different colo...

Riff Raff - Midnight Movie sticker set 3rd of 3

I feel like I ended this set really strong. I saw a hell of a lot of Midnight Movies in the 70’s, and Rocky Horror Picture Show was certainly the first I saw… and then over and over again during 8th and 9th grade. I can’t imagine how many times total now, at least 25 and I would think more. My adolescent friend group of nerds and artists played at having our own shadow cast, though that name had yet to be coined. Riff Raff was always who I chose to play as, and I put his “tri-wand of...

I had made noises about going over to Loose for a few pages, but ended up deciding to finish up Dinosaurs. Both have about the same number of pages left to go before Stray Bullet #3 is ready to compile! This chapter of the Stray Bullet story is 28 pages, and Loose pt.3 is 15 (we left off at pg. 9).

This page will see the skater do something new… any guesses?

I changed the name of this guy since the preview post… I decided to use the name of one of the men who inspired this character, as in why wouldn’t I? He previously appeared on this page, 9 years ago!

Dinosaurs pg.22 sneak peek

I couldn’t pick between these two for a preview panel so y’all getting a double peek this time. I like the name Grey, despite having an ex who went by Gray… or at least I used the nickname for Graham for him He was surprised I even knew that it was, but I had come across it in a novel. Graham isn’t common enough of a name in the states for us to be familiar with diminutive versions of it. He’s one of the ones I don’t keep in touch with, so here I spell it differently.

Midnight Movie sticker 2: Champagne

I can’t do a midnight movie set without one from my first and favorite, Tommy. I grew up on this soundtrack and knew every word to every song years before ever seeing the film. Here I decided to do Tommy’s mother, Mrs. Walker (Ann Margret) making a horny drunken mess. William and I are doing the same theme of midnight movies with this set, and he’s done one from Tommy as well: Tina Tu...

Hullo

I’m late on a mid-week post so here’s a bit of hot gardening and updates. I’m currently working on this month’s sticker, this next page of Dinosaurs, a commission, and soon the next welcome sketch.

Q-con was a lot of fun! A bit less traffic, probably due to being early May instead of mid-June. It’s always great to see our convention family. We (William and I) noticed that we’re selling more smaller books these days, as in zine size/chap books. Of course we have more of the...

Grant character intro

I had to write this one twice as I remembered that these are basically of the characters as they appear in Hard to Swallow… I don’t want to give away too much about the current storyline in Stray Bullet. Damaged stars Grant, and part 4 of Stray Bullet is going to be digging into his situation quite heavily.

As is often the case, these 4 characters (Feral, Mitch, Doug, and Grant) reflect different aspects of my own self, and Grant often gets left out in favor of the more fun/attrac...
