TORONTO! Come watch me play D&D LIVE (and poorly)!

I’m doing it. I’m finally doing D&D for the first time ever—LIVE! Come join us a special Battle of the Bands campaign and for an evening of me making this face ⬇️ for 2 hours 😆 Tickets: www.torontocomics.com/event-detail...

At long last, TCAF and D&D finally unite! Catch our live play session and join an art jam on Friday, June 7. Tix are limited! www.torontocomics.com/event-detail... W/ @mjlyonswrites.bsky.social @henrybarajas.bsky.social @gigimurakami.bsky.social @jordanmorris.bsky.social @andrewwheeler.bsky.social

I'm going to be doing something I've never tried before at @torontocomics.bsky.social this year: DMing Dungeons & Dragons in front of a live audience! Come out to TCAF's first ever(??) #dnd5e actual play fundraiser with some truly kickass comics nerds playing! www.torontocomics.com/event-detail...

What does it mean to make comics in this political context? Head to our #TCAF2025 Kick-Off Panel on Friday, June 6 to hear from @sanyaanwar.bsky.social, Guy Delisle, @faitherinhicks.bsky.social, @tundrawizard.bsky.social & TCAF's @librarylandia.bsky.social! www.torontocomics.com/event-detail...

I'm coming to TCAF this year, which is exciting! I haven't been in a decade. And I am also going to have an event in Windsor ON on the Tuesday after, June 10th. The Windsor event will have to accommodate my mother's entire rowdy family but it is at a brewery so they'll be all set

Okay, I'm tabling at two upcoming Canadian conventions! This Saturday, May 24th I will be at Rain City Comic Con (which is free!), table C7. Come say hi! I will have most of my books & some Mummy comics available for sale.

I’m so so honored to be at TCAF ✨😭

Thrilled to share that the schedule for @torontocomics.bsky.social Libraries and Education Day 2025 is live! Speaker names still to be posted, but in case you were wondering what we're learning about together... here you go! #libcomix #GraphicMedicine 📚 www.torontocomics.com/schedule/tca...

HOLY HELL YES.

Excited for this one, I’m hosting the spotlight interview for @brusierkee.bsky.social on Sunday, June 8 to chat about her debut GN Saint Catherine. The session title is… you guessed it… Sunday Mass. Between Conclave, a new pope and Saint Catherine, its a good time to be a recovering Catholic.

Look, Ma! I’m going to @torontocomics.bsky.social who is is going?

I can't fuckin wait to go see this. Bought my ticket yesterday! I wanted to go during TIFF but I couldn't get to any screenings.

TCAF easing into this year's festival in the best way, with a movie about comics. I also want to call attention that TCAF is currently fundraising to cover the costs of this year's fest and to provide creators in need with table space. Info here: www.torontocomics.com/support-tcaf

The Graphic Medicine International Collective is proud to help sponsor Libraries & Education Day at this year’s Toronto Comic Arts Festival (TCAF). www.graphicmedicine.org/event-of-int...

Always the best part of TCAF, for my money. If you have comics in your classroom or library, you’ll want to go to this.

Libraries & Education Day is a FREE, all-day slate of programming for library workers, students, educators, creators, and anyone interested in how comics intersect with education. RSVP today! www.torontocomics.com/libraries-an... Huge thanks to coordinators Allie Landy & @noethematt.bsky.social 💛

Let's goooooo

TCAF is at a new venue this year and they've apparently had quite a few cancellations from US-based creators understandably reluctant to travel, so if you like what they do and can spare a few bucks to help them stay a free-to-attend, creator-first, inclusive festival, the info to donate is below!

A message from @librarylandia.bsky.social 📣 Thanks to 408 donors, we're at 80% of our funding goal! If you haven’t yet donated, and if independent art and the comics community are important to you, give to TCAF today. Donors over $5 will be celebrated on our site www.torontocomics.com/support-tcaf

Look who's coming to #TCAF2025! London, Ontario's @laufman.bsky.social is a comic artist/illustrator whose many works include Ruinworld, Bot-9, The Witch of Wickerson, and new series Crimson Fall. He's worked with Marvel, DC, DreamWorks, Hasbro, Mattel, and "I Hate Fairyland" from @imagecomics.com

It's your last chance to join Team #TCAF2025! Our volunteer form closes midnight tomorrow ✨ www.torontocomics.com/volunteer

Cats outta the bag 🥹🙏🏾

Thrilled and honoured to be a TCAF featured guest AND to be drawing this year's festival poster! Following in the footsteps of artists like Gurihuru, Jillian Tamaki, Em Carroll, Kamome Shirahama and so many more, what a delight. 🥰
