Here’s a fun fact and reminder that I am not gonna stop posting about as long as I keep seeing this bullshit:

Dear Americans, identifying as a communist is just as offensive as being a literal nazi in a very big part of the world. The hammer and sickle is an offensive symbol that is banned in many countries, just like the swastika. Likely more people died under communist oppression than nazism, and there are people still alive who can tell you about it.

And no, don’t come at me with all this “but the core ideology was good!!” or especially “here we do not have this connotation so it’s not offensive!”. Your media, culture and standards are forced on the entirety of the rest of the world, and whatever you post in english is understandable for everyone else, if I am decent enough to care about issues like blackface (that literally have zero history in eg. my entire country which was never a colonizing nation), you should be decent enough and not make a hip cool internet trend about an oppressive ideology whose victims still remember the horrors and still suffer the consequences 🙂

Thanks and don’t be surprised if you see this reposted by me again, chances are I saw another fucking idiot who thinks communism is cool uwu it was just never done right, Lenin was a bae uwu glitter rainbow hammer and sickle :3

my grandmother fled with her 4 year old and a fistful of jewelry because the communist regime in hungary was literally that bad

“ohhhh but communism is about EVERYONE being able to go to fancy restaurants!” they actually shot a bunch of peaceful student protesters in front of the capital’s university over the living conditions but sure

i don’t have patience for these assholes anymore

Anyone who thinks communism is a good idea, doesn’t actually understand communism.

Fuck communism.

Young Portal Ford – Wayfaring Strangers Zine!
(click through for larger size!)

So this was my piece for the Wayfaring Strangers Zine!  ( @gfwayfaringstrangerszine

Folks who follow me will find this subject a little bit familiar by now, I think… since I’ve spent the intervening year, since doing this, slowly filling in a number of back-story elements for Pteroworld (< see tag for all pieces).  Basically I came up with this and then was like, hmm, perhaps some explanations are in order… like, how the heck those eels are managing to fly, or the fact that the dino-dragon-pterosaur-alien isn’t just a flying mount, but part of a sentient race, and Ford makes friends with this youngster and they go searching for archaeological ruins together.   That kind of thing.

ANYWAY. I had a blast doing this, having also decided I wanted to make the style (of inking and coloring, color-choices and landscape) an homage to the incomparable Jean Giraud (Moebius).

Honestly can’t wait to see all the other pieces being posted!  And of course, can’t wait to hold this zine in my hands!
