Anonymous asked: Hello Jamie, I see you are at LSCC on Feb 25th. Is it possible to buy prints for you to sign before hand or will you be bringing some. I wanted the Art Brut covers or failing that Hackney rooftop. Best wishes, Mike

X-Men Season One
I’ve been putting panels from XMSO on my instagram for a while now, and I figured I’d collect them all on Tumblr for people to see.
(Hopefully Tumblr will reduce the size of these so they don’t take up your whole browser at once.)

heebzilla asked: Do you have plans to revisit Suburban Glamour? Not that this perfect little self-contained story needs a sequel, but I noticed a "1" designation on the spine.
Anonymous asked: Hi Jamie. Any sign of the new print? I've got one on order and I have an empty wall that needs art!
onlysaneman asked: Huge fan of your art style - I was just wondering, would you be up for doing a walk-through of how you go about drawing a poster or panel or whatever? Give us an insight into how you approach artwork?
Thought Bubble Festival
Kieron and I will be at Thought Bubble Festival this weekend, on table 33. As usual, we will be amongst the DJs at the Saturday night party. It’s my favourite UK con of the year, and I’m really looking forward to it.
We’ll have copies of our books and some of my most recent prints for sale. Unfortunately though, due to work and health reasons, I am only going to be around on the Saturday of the...

Anonymous asked: Ah man, I wondered why I hadn't been seeing any witty McKelvie tweets for a while, and it turns out I was no longer following you. Except I hadn't unfollowed you, because when I tried to follow you again it said I'm blocked :( I can't think of anything I tweeted to make you block me, my last @you was ages ago in support of your tumblr-repost-credit discussion :(
elaineisthebest asked: Hi Jamie! Just discovered your work; really beautiful, ace stuff. Just wondering: do you do your line work all digitally, or do you use traditional pen and ink? Many thanks.
aleksandersamuel asked: Dear Jamie, did you send your posters yet? I can hardly wait to have some eye candy in my kitchen. It's itching every time I see your stuff reblogged on my dash. Hope you had a great weekend, dude.
iFanboy Party Playlist (sort of).
Here’s a list of songs I played at the iFanboy party on the Friday night of New York Comic Con. I didn’t write down the order, so this is a very, very loose attempt at recreating it. It’s probably mostly wrong.
I was drunk.
Here’s a Spotify Playlist.
And here are the songs with individual links:
Darken Her Horse - Austra
Ani-Kuni - Madeleine Chartrand
Manners - Icona...
Female Super-Hero Characters and Sex: Creators... →
A lengthy discussion with me, Kieron Gillen, Erika Moen, Kurt Busiek, Greg Rucka, G. Willow Wilson, Jeff Parker, Jess Fink, Brandon Graham, Sana Amanat, and Rachel Edidin. Worth a read.

9x12” Head sketch, B&W with grey markers: $40

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who responded to my last post. Heartening to see so many understand and agree with the intent, if not the detail.
Anonymous asked: I agree, Jamie.
but you shouldn't stress so much about the text the comes with it, some people have accounts serving as some sort of reference book, there's a template that works great if having just the pictures, which is my case. but as an artist myself, I despise the use of other people's work without credit so I may remove the original text but if you click on the image,...

On reblogging
Posting other people’s images without credit when you know who created it is not cool.
Reblogging the work of artists/photographers/writers and actively removing their credit is even worse.
The set-up of Tumblr encourages this somewhat - it’s easy to instantaneously reblog without giving much thought to where an image came from. And it seems to have led to the rise of a culture of...

Wallpapers
Here, have some wallpapers of some recent artwork. If you feel like donating on a “pay what you want” system for the use of them, feel free. I won’t hold it against you if you don’t.
I might.
Nah, I won’t.
