My #ReturnOfTheDoppelgangers exhibition is now officially closed and I couldn’t have done it without the incredible staff and crew at Harman Projects ❤️🙏. All remaining original paintings, prints and merch is now up online.

So, it turns out @jordanpeele’s incredible #UsMovie was, without spoiling it, pretty much made for my Doppelgangers series of watercolor paintings. Duh. (Also the movie is incredible and smart and scary and fun and AHHHH GO SEE IT!)

There’s a lot of shocking news every day in the news but this is perhaps the most jarring.
Goombas have arms and hands. They are folded neatly behind their backs.

Early last year I got to see Darkseid from Zack Snyder’s Justice League before the public so that I could draw Zack Snyder’s Darkseid so that we could show everyone what Zack Snyder’s Darkseid looked like in Zack Snyder’s Justice League and it was one of the coolest jobs I’ve had

Been losing tons of followers because I’m a “weak sheep” and advocate for wearing a mask, and I would gladly lose thousands more instead of actually losing anyone I love to Covid.

I like to imagine that Michael & Joann were a happily married couple with plans to open the greatest arts&craft store ever. But then, things went awry after a wild night of swing-scrapbooking. They soon divorced with bad blood, each vowing to defeat each other via a Craft Empire.

19 years ago I participated in one of the biggest and most impactful projects of my life. Working on this album and working with The Used was an exhilarating journey to say the least. We started with this and kept going for 3 more projects ❤️. It all started with these scribbles.
19 years ago today we released In Love and Death. ♥️ We know this is a very special album for a lot of you - thank you to everyone who’s been with us on this journey since then or joined us along the way. What’s your favorite song from this album?

I loved Furiosa. I wish it kept going for at least 17 more hours. George Miller’s Wasteland is my favorite post-apocalyptic world by far. Way better than our current post-apocalyptic world.

I’ve never seen this at a movie theater before tonight and it genuinely felt like we were being pranked because NO ONE ELSE seemed to care that this person was on their WHOLE ASS LAPTOP for almost half of the film. AMC Glendale 🪦

Was going through some old images and found these rad #DiggingUpTheMarrow concepts I made and compared them to what ended up in the film and I got all teary-eyed. Still so cool to me. @Adam_Fn_Green and @josh_ethier killed it. @slimyswampghost I thought you may dig this too!

One of the most impactful projects I’ve ever done, designing the art for @WeAreTheUsed’s IN LOVE & DEATH album, which officially turns 20 TODAY! Over the course of 7 years, I did over 1000 illustrations, scribbles, characters and shirt designs, but it all started here. ❤️ TSM
I don’t think I’ve ever shared this so…On the left is the very first tiny scribble of a heart in a noose I did in a composition book on an airplane from Burbank to Oakland, the day after I met @WeAreTheUsed for the first time in 2003. I eventually used it to design their logo❤️

Just days before Google bought YouTube in 2006, I created a bunch of art for the YouTube corporate office in San Bruno. It lasted only 2 days before getting removed because the new Google execs said it was TOO DEMONIC. one of my proudest moments :) 👹☠️

Happy 10th Birthday #BindingOfIsaac. Still one of my absolute favorite illustrations of mine (to go along with one of my favorite worlds).
Today isaac turns 10! I’ll be going through sketches and tweeting dev stuff you may not have seen, designing a cool four souls promo card and doing a stream around 9:30 pst tonight! Stay tuned !.

I was lucky enough to see @JhonenV’s new Invader Zim Netflix movie tonight, and aside from the odd 17-minute-long live-action segment of an unrelated man literally gagging on a food-covered-spoon, it was REALLY great. Hopefully they remove that spoon scene tho. Hard to watch.

The original illustration was done for @edmundmcmillen and my favorite property #TheBindingOfIsaac as part of his board game campaign and I think this tattoo NAILED it. Wow!

“For God’s sake! How can you stop it?” Easily one of my top 5 favorite films. This was an honor to work on, even if I did almost swallow my soul while drawing it. 💀

I got a chance to design a ton of insane stuff for this movie and can’t wait to share it with ya. October 11 on Hulu! (And yes there’s MONSTERS) 💀.
MR. CROCKET premieres October 11 on Hulu. "In 1993, a mysterious children’s show host magically emerges from television sets to kidnap young children, brutally slaying their parents in the process."

Shout out to Todd McFarlane for still holding the title since 1997 for “creepiest mainstream toy on the shelves” when he literally made a corpse that didn’t move into an action figure for X-Files. The 90s were the Wild West.

If you have the time, do NOT miss seeing this in a theater. Because once you eventually see it at home you’ll be kicking yourself for missing it. Don’t kick yourself. Avoid kicking yourself by just seeing it this week. @coraliefargeat is a master.
Despite losing over 1k screens MUBI’s THE SUBSTANCE grosses another $1.3M (-35%), $9.7M total. WoM is strong with this cut.
