Someone at #VanCAF told @churl that they'd gotten to dig into the emails, journal entries, and other personal files of our characters that we created, and it made my day!

If you want a copy of this cool bonus, you can get it here. You get a working floppy disk with the files on it and a flyer for a fake 90s era ISP with clues for accessing those same files online: https://buyolympia.com/Item/matthew-bogart-jesse-holden-incredible-doom-floppy.

I'm so proud of how this all turned out.

I made a display for our favorite bit of Incredible Doom merch.

The floppy disk & accompanying flyer advertising a fake ISP give you access to our character Allison’s personal files, both on the disk and online (in case you don't have a floppy drive handy). Read characters' emails, journal entries, & files they’ve collected from various ''90s-era BBSes.

Available at the comic conventions we're attending this month and at https://buyolympia.com/Item/matthew-bogart-jesse-holden-incredible-doom-floppy

I'm thinking about blogging about things that folks who read my comic about teens on the early internet and wish they had taken part in those days might want to try. Things that capture the fun of the early web without being *too* intimidating for folks who are only moderately techie.

Mastodon is one of those things. So what else should I write about?

By the way, as we're writing this new story, I couldn't help but think about the wild original plot for Incredible Doom Part 1, which included a scene set during the release of The Death of Superman, a murder, and General Zod! I just shared a video with patrons that walked through that first plot.

Tom Lehrer (94), who's mentioned as Richards favorite musician in my Incredible Doom Vol. 1, made his entire catalogue copyright free at a few weeks ago. Many of his recordings are available for free for a limited time on his website.

His song "I Hold Your Hand In Mine" was the first song I decided to memorize as a kid.

Here’s Another of my favorite panels from my most recent graphic novel, Incredible Doom, about teens getting their lives thrown into chaos by the early internet.

Did ya'll know that my collaborator on Incredible Doom is on Mastodon? It's true: @churl

Cleaning up my desktop, I discovered this time-lapse of drawing the cover of Incredible Doom Vol. 2.

Now it's fun for me to watch this. For a while there it was exhausting remembering the stress.

I also wrote about the design process on my blog: https://www.matthewbogart.net/2022/07/21/lets-talk-aobut-the-cover-of-vol-2/

A little behind the scenes, these were the first tests at creating chapter dividers for the Incredible Doom Vol. 1. collection. My editor decided they preferred white text on a black background, which I think looks nice. #incredibledoom

A panel I like from Incredible Doom Vol. 2, my most recent graphic novel. It’s about a group of kids who get their lives thrown into chaos by the early internet.

It’s heartbreaking and fun, funny, and great.

A fantastic piece by @benjedwards about his life running a BBS in the early 90s: it’s filled with beautiful photos and screenshots from his archive and reads like a story right out of my comic. #BBS #retrocomputing #IncredibleDoom

A page from the rare “lost issue” of my comic “Incredible Doom”. This issue was removed from the cannon when we were picked up by Harper Collins. Only patrons got to (and still can) read it. #comics #incredibledoom
