Emailed John P. to update the mailing address on my King Cat subscription.

He wrote me back to say that I just may be the longest current subscriber he's got — I signed up in 1994 with issue #44!

1994 was my first year in college. Looking back through those comics stirs up a lot of memories.

#kingcat is one of my all-time favorites — you should subscribe! John also runs a distribution service called Spit And A Half where you can buy more fun mini-comics:

Just realized that @ZachWeinersmith fully predicted ChatGPT with this 2014 comic (if he's already pointed this out, my bad): https://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=3576

I made my way through Carlo Rovelli's brilliant Order of Time (a second time) for reference for my forthcoming work. It's quite wonderful - mind expanding & deeply human all at once. He deals with entropy at length, and that discussion resonated with my comic on entropy "Against the Flow" that I created for the Boston Globe some years back. You can find more on its genesis along with ALL the sketches that led to its rather complicated composition. https://spinweaveandcut.com/sketching-entropy/

I put @tomgauld's brilliant new comic for @newscientist alongside Ibn Al-Rabin's masterpiece “Le Verbe Prophétique” as demonstrating the ways you can do things in comics seemingly simple yet bewilderingly complex that can only be done in comics.

Mondrian Crescent

I love it when train doors align at the end of a tunnel. The red tiles at Green Park station make this the ideal location to capture this moment.

It wasn't luck though, instead I froze the moving train with a fast shutter. It took ages to get it centred.

This final image resembles an abstract art painting by Piet Mondrian.

Was lucky enough to finally realise my childhood dream and see the Northern Lights dancing in the night sky during my winter road trip around Iceland. There's never a guarantee you will see them as they're so unpredictable and the sky must be as dark as possible. This is a long exposure and caught a shooting star in the frame as well.

Was lieben wir alle in der Familie von 11-55 Jahren „Esthers Tagebücher“! Dieser #Comic ist ein großer Wurf. Für Alt wie Jung! So schonungslos, so unverstellt, so ungefiltert berichtet #Autor Riad Sattouf vom Leben seiner Nichte - wunderbar! Großer Dank an Übersetzer Uli Pröfrock aus #Freiburg (ehemals „X für U“)! Die Liebe, die ins #Buch geflossen ist, war sicher nicht mit Geld aufzuwiegen. #Danke! @ComicContext @comic @ComicBookProgressive
