Mikey Burton’s work all looks so great together! Mix and match over on his website.

Tomer Hanuka illustrated a new Spider-Man piece for the New Yorker, about the musical. See the post here with process sketches.

Of course I’m opinionated about this stuff, the only thing I build websites on is WordPress and so I am supa-psyched that I no longer have to “be returned to my Live Journal Experience” after watching a 30 second video ad for Olive Garden (sometimes with no skip button) on Brandon’s old blog anymore before seeing a post because he has migrated his entire Live Journal of comics wisdom and debauchery to a wordpress.com blog. Here it is, subscribe to the RSS feed. Now all you kids out there would probably yell something about Tumblr but I heard on the 6 O’Clock news before eating my prunes and cottage cheese and going to bed that you damn kids probably don’t use email anymore either so pffft! Anyway doesn’t that Tumblr sheesh go down all the time? And what do I care about the 250 people who left “notes” on a post if the notes are just essentially them clicking a “like” button? I can’t do anything with that information. Anyway, back to Brandon. Cool. Good work.

James has some new work up the blog, “The Lotus War“. Above are two panels and a detail of a third.
“The External World” is by David O’Reilly, director of “Please Say Something” and other neat stuff.

With this four-and-a-half hour sitting self-portrait in oil paint, Esao is not only proclaiming that he will be working more on studies from life in 2011, but he’s asking “so what did you accomplish during the Super Bowl?”

Domitille Collardey (previously mentioned here) and Sarah Glidden, two residents of the Pizza Island cartoonist’s studio in Brooklyn were glued to the coverage of the Egyptian revolution via the internet and social media. After Mubarak relinquished power and there was much rejoicing, they sat down for eight hours and drew a comic about their experience. Then they blogged it.
Check out the discussion in the comments over on the Pizza Island blog post for varied opinions about the work.

Mentioned before, but should be noted that Jay has been producing miniature tales and moody, washy, scenes both on his Golden Circle Story Time and The Cowboy Campfire repositories, as well as lighter ditties such as the above example.
