Underground hip hop duo Mars ILL drops new single!

Yesterday, one of my favorite rap acts of all time that you probably never heard of (the "he's the deejay, I'm the rapper" duo MARS ILL) dropped their first new track in 16 years!

This looks like a job for SUPERHERU

This is now the official video for Smooth Criminal at GhettoManga HQ

All controversies aside, I remain a pretty big Michael Jackson fan. I know. It's too late for me. Anyways, I also love weird animation. So if someone could mash up this clip from Space Dandy and Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal for me, that would be great.

New Character Sketch of One of my first Original Characters

To the extent that people know my work as an artist, they know me primarily as a freelance illustrator. But before I ever managed to get anyone to pay me for sequential work, certainly before I ever got my hands on any digital coloring tools, I created this character and wrote, drew and lettered comics (in pencil only) for my own pleasure and the entertainment of a few of my high school classmates.

This is my first time drawing him in over twenty years. It felt good...

Start the Day Off Right with DJ JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE

Accomplished independent cartoonist and proud Philadelphian Jamar Nicholas (LEON: Protector of the Playground, Detective Boogaloo) posted the video for Brand New Funk, my personal favorite song from DJ JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE, on Facebook on Thursday. I wound up listening to it many, many times last night, and now I'm sharing it with you.

John Oliver Talks About the National Weather Service, and You Should Care

"Because everything Trump Does is designed to destroy the government from the inside."

"It's Elementary. They Want Us ALL GONE Eventually." -Nas

I catch a fair amount of flack for occasionally depicting cops as bad people in my comics, or for saying things my conservative friends think are unfair to so-called "good cops" on social media. I never really feel the need to defend my positions, because I know that now that they cannot hide, the "bad apples" will show their colors and make my point for me.

Happy Birthday AHMAD!!!

October 10th 2019 is Ahmad "Back in the Day" Lewis's 44th birthday. So because he is one of the dopest emcees to ever do it, I don't want the day to pass by without a shout out. So celebrate MODsday with some music and such...

#NowPlaying MEAT MARKET by M.Slago + Midaz the Beast + DJ Spiderman

This new M.Slago single Meat Market takes me back to simpler times with a noisy loop worthy of the Bomb Squad, Midaz the Beast's syncopated flow, and liberal cuts from DJ Spiderman of a beloved Public Enemy sample. Also has a Tony Kukoc shout out.

The Latin American Anime Experience

Cristal Marie Calderon and the Get in the Robot crew make the case that the experience of Latin American anime fans has been historically better than ours in the U.S.

And they're pro'lly right...

Your Life is Happening Now, fam...

Don't misunderstand... Patience is a good thing. So is a spirit of graciousness and humility. But waiting for things to be perfect is just stalling.
