calisotas asked: please tell me more about the bubba don rosa comic because i didn’t know it existed until now
it was called ‘Back in time for a Dime’? it was like a one off I think- he wrote it but didn’t do the artwork, and it’s the only time I’ve seen that Bubba character so I assumed he was a Ducktales kid :’D
sorry for having like, nothing to post this week but I am working like crazy on TPoH and this doodle comic- here’s some WIP screenshots of the none spoiler variety to keep you going (p.s. there’s so many characters in this story there’s like a bazillion crowd shots oh my god help me)
Anonymous asked: thanks for letting me stop watching Ducktales- I felt bad because I felt obliged to watch bc I've been a lifelong ducks fan, but I was forcing myself to, and then feeling bad that I wasn't enjoying it. I didn't realise how unhappy it was making me- the guilt of not being able to enjoy it, so when you just said 'you know what I'm good you all carry on I'm just not into it' it was like HUGE relief? and I feel so much healthier now! not bitter, not guilty, just able to let go of it and love ducks
I’m so glad I helped you get to that mindspace anon, it was a bit scary for me to make the decision and especially to make it public, but I really do feel much healthier without that constant internal conflict! I’m glad everyone is enjoying the new show, but I’m glad I don’t have to feel obliged to take part anymore as well- I think sometimes just admitting something isn’t for you and making a clean break can be the best for both parties.
Yo, I finally decided to put together and color some old trash I never felt like finishing- mostly Scrooge and Bubba trash! You will hate me after this but, I don’t hate Bubba?? I think he’s cute?? I know he’s annoying as heck but isn’t that the point?? :D Since he disappeared completely from the series in the last episodes, I HC that Scrooge was actively trying to find him a family, and after some months he finally got adopted! He still visits the fam occasionally and of course still calls Scrooge uncle, tho. Bonus:
Anonymous asked: Unlce Mod I'm so sad play desp- I mean, I had a dream where I was in a comic book store and I came across a bumper album of duck comics by you! And I asked the store owner and he said Disney got permission to print all of them from 'the artist' as long as they didn't change anything except line and colour and it was so GOOD and they were REAL and HARDBACK then I woke up and it WASN'T I'M SO ANGRY I'
chinchillasinunison asked: hey lol I saw your post about Magica and Gladstone being like a double act, and I guess that just set off something in my brain so I just wanted to ask.... opinions on Laurel & Hardy? I know you're a Buster Keaton fan, and they're from around that same period...
I LOVE LAUREL AND HARDY are you kidding that shit’s classic gosh yeah folks you want some good comedy 101 go watch some of that- also Harold Lloyd, Fatty Arbuckle, Charlie Chaplin- all that stuff it’s been invaluable to me both as an artist and a writer
Anonymous asked: can I just say, thanks for showing me the potential of Gladstone and Magica as a double act? determined vs lazy, serious vs fun-loving, unlucky vs lucky- Like, shipping aside, they work SO WELL as a combination! they balance out and just spontaneously create great situations as characters, I'm really surprised the official comics haven't latched onto it outside of the few stories there are with them both- I could easily see a whole series of magic adventures with them!
AAA THANK YOU see I am glad you put that out there because I’m so obviously biased with shipping them, but I really do think that they work together as friends and adventure buddies first and foremost! Magica doesn’t need anyone to help execute her plans, but I think it’d be healthier for her to have someone to help her be more easy going once in a while and give her some self care lessons- and Gladstone might not admit it often but he loves and needs adventure, and wouldn’t it be nice for them both to have someone who really understood/was interested in the occult to talk to? you’re not alone in envisioning a side series of adventures with them- it’s practically what I’m doing with these doodle comics! but hey, we can dream, right? anyway sorry for lack of posting art lately I’m real busy working on things, but here’s a sketch for a cover of a possible future story for your trouble <3
Anonymous asked: is there any chance you'll put up some of your duck doodles for print? I love them so much please uncle mod
sorry friend, don’t want to dice with death at the hands of Disney lawyers- I just want to make as many people smile as possible and create them for as long as I can
