Our glorious future!
I’ve been experimenting with “news clips” to intersperse throughout my graphic novel (Robocop and Give Me Liberty styles!)
I’ve decided not to go down this path, but Id been thinking about it for awhile so Im glad I gave it a go
Trigger warning - some of these are pretty racist and grotesque, as per the grim future this comic imagines. Apologies.

Okay, but where's the fictional stuff
huh, quite the departure to just draw direct copies of my news feed every day, but u do u i guess 🫠🫠🫠
Haha - tracking your viewing habits was TOO easy
I love me some fake ads & clickbait. Although these are less "fake" than "early."
Haha Yeah the ads in the first Robocop were so great - they made a huge impression on me!
Very good artifacts from the future.
I reckon this 'ephemeria' would look great in the book.
Actually looks like a BBC News page. Also great use of the word "boffin" 😂
These are great! like Weekly World News, but w/o BatBoy & Pg5; ie dread in lieu of hope. As above, be a great zine, or occasional one-page/one-offs. Might do well as t-shirts / posters too. (LifeLease car-wraps! 😄 )
Man this was a depressing one
My work is done 😅😬😭
Oof
These would make a good/disturbing little zine if you put them all together.
Huh, I hadn’t thought of that! But don’t distract me - Must stay focused on finishing drawing this book!!
So... Modern Nostradamus, are we? i can't decide which was most chilling, but page 5 bottom is what I've seen some companies already attempted. (luckily with bad result, since, OFF EFFIN COURSE, they were cheaping out on it)
Oo glad you like that one - directly inspired by Adobe btw
These were disturbing because of how close to reality they are! Good set, though!
These are amazing, infuriating and amazing.
Love it, more of these please! - "I'd buy that for a dollar!"
So... Straight from the News
Yeah I didnt have to try very hard 🤣
Pretty chilling stuff - I love it
Yeah that was a gut punch for sure
