.@ZelenskyyUa's tv address to the Russian (!) people might be the most moving speech that I've ever seen in my entire life. The whole world needs to see, understand and share this crucial Ukrainian message. #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine #Україна #Russia #Россия

I made this pre delta, and it’s only gotten worse since. Covid has increased inequality, and we all see how inequality is a big part of how delta is spreading. Addressing inequality has to be part of the effort to addressing covid. Protect everyone. google.co.nz/amp/s/thespinof…

When approached through postcolonial criticism, Gateway’s relationship to his ancestral land may participate in a colonialist fantasy based around the concept of the noble savage and their capacity to validate different forms of occupation as benevolent vs malignant. #xmen 1/7

Two panels to show why @martegracia is already a legend in comic book coloring. The way he manages the mood, depth, emotional charge in our pages is beyond comparison. I'm so lucky to be on Gerry and Marte's team.

I really don't mind that @nzherald uses my social media to spread the message of body positivity. But gee I contribute a lot of content to them for free. Maybe they could give $100 to @aunties_the every time they use it. That seems fair. RT if you agree.

We turn to the X-Men during times of anxiety. REVISIT X-Men: Red! @TomTaylorMade delivers a narrative about politics, misinformation, and intolerance on a global level and the X-Men’s role in fighting hate in the age of Twitter and fake news! #xmen #book #marvel #CapitalHill

I've done lots of work I'm proud of over my career but this collaboration with @SiouxsieW for @TheSpinoffTV is probably the most important. Here's all the gifs so far in one place - feel free to republish/translate/share under creative commons terms. thespinoff.co.nz/media/19-05…

We walk behind our children trying to keep them safe, and willing the world to treat them well. Their little shoulders, the napes of their necks. A drawing about loss. @NZStuff @SundayStarTimes #Samoa #Measles #vaccination

In making NZ a better fairer place, a big congrats to the NZ Government for officially passing/changing more legislation in the last 7 month period than any government has FOR THE LAST DECADE. Imagine if the job was full time eh.

Happy International #YouthDay! We’re proud to be part of @PrincesTrust Group which works to transform lives and build sustainable communities across the world, through partnerships, research and programme delivery -> princes-trust.org.nz/
What a sight! More than 10,000 Red Cross youths walked the #Fiaccolata – a candle-lit march from Solferino, where Henry Dunant witnessed a battle that led to the founding of the #RedCross and #RedCrescent Movement.

The divide over a capital gains tax. Some are treating it like it is a wild socialist idea, but in fact most comparable countries have a CGT. My @NZStuff @dompost cartoon today #wealth #fairness #GCT.

If Tremain or this Alex situation have got you questioning the state of local cartooning - I've put together a list of locals that might give you hope. I'm sure I will forgotten lots of people, there are so many good things happening in local comics. thespinoff.co.nz/media/11-04…
