Ever been left alone with a photocopier after hours? Spending the night folding &amp; stapling mini comics, fingers getting dry from all that paper? But you end up with a stack of brand-new books. It might be the best thing. I made a video about it for patrons: https://www.patreon.com/posts/making-mini-old-159227521

The original version of Eternal September Issue 3, before I revised it. Different narration, several replaced pages. Seeing before and after on a 64-page project is one of the stranger things in the archive. https://www.incredibledoom.com/eternal-september-03-old-version/

I made two full-length Incredible Doom comics written and drawn in 24 hours each. Complete stories with the Vol. 1 and 2 characters, created under the 24-Hour Comics challenge. It&#39;s another fun thing you get for being a patron. https://www.incredibledoom.com/24-hour-comics/

This video inspired me to re-listen to my favorite book on writing. Stephen King&#39;s book. Appropriately titled &quot;On Writing&quot;. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCNaKe1CEXw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCNaKe1CEXw&amp;list=LL&amp;index=5

Currently sketching a panel that resolves an idea we built into Incredible Doom 8 years ago. Comics can sure take its time.

One of the perks of joining the patreon is this fun post delving into all the secrets behind the Incredible Doom Vol. 2 cover. There&#39;s so many little things in there that make me giddy. Members can read about it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/secrets-of-doom-69185435

This 2022 post about AI art hits differently now. I still keep thinking about Brad Guigar&#39;s &quot;Taco Bell&quot; analogy and CGP Grey&#39;s &quot;horses&quot; argument though. https://www.matthewbogart.net/2022/11/04/thoughts-on-ai-generated-images/

Thia in School is a short mini-comic set in the Eternal September universe. It&#39;s the kind of character story that only exists because this membership community makes it possible. https://www.patreon.com/posts/94200619/

The Lost Issue is the start of an Incredible Doom story that would have happened after Vol. 1 if we&#39;d kept self-publishing. Non-canonical now but totally real as a reading experience. Patrons get as part of their support. https://www.incredibledoom.com/the-lost-issue/

I got to interview Steve Lieber and Matt Fraction about Superman&#39;s Pal Jimmy Olsen for Helioscope&#39;s channel. That book is so good, and so is this conversation. https://www.matthewbogart.net/2025/08/13/i-made-a-cool-video-with-matt-fraction-and-steve-lieber/

Just about all of the drawing of my graphic novel series Incredible Doom was captured as a time lapse. Blank canvas to finished lines. The full process compressed into something you can actually watch. Patreon supporters get access to the whole lot of them. https://www.incredibledoom.com/time-lapse-videos/

&quot;Stories from Evol House&quot; includes 18 pages of backup stories featuring Incredible Doom characters from Volumes 1 and 2. These fill in corners of the Evol House universe that the main books didn&#39;t have space for. Patrons get it as part of membership. https://www.incredibledoom.com/backup-stories/

I kinda miss these &quot;Chaos Books,&quot; though I don&#39;t think I have the stamina for them anymore. Twenty-seven random prompts from readers, one bizarre 20-page comic, 18 straight hours of drawing. https://www.matthewbogart.net/yeswaffle/

The rarest weirdest piece of Incredible Doom trivia from Vol. 1, something almost no one knows. I documented it here for members. https://www.patreon.com/posts/rarest-bit-of-73472015

My studio mate, @stevelieberart.bsky.social, just got nominated for an Eisner for Superman&#39;s Pal Jimmy Olsen (with Matt Fraction). The cover is filled with cartoonist cameos, including me! We&#39;re signing copies to celebrate. Keep an eye out at the Helioscope Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/HelioscopePdx

I&#39;m going to be posting a new comic soon for the first time in a long time, and I&#39;m quite excited about it. Surely it is unrelated to the amount of caffeine I just drank.

One of the great things about Patreon is it can be a treasure trove of interesting approaches to making things. For example I often use 3D models when drawing and I wrote up that whole process, what I model, when I use reference vs. draw freehand, and how it affects things. https://www.patreon.com/posts/working-with-3d-24244073

The early version of Incredible Doom was completely different. Kids witnessing a murder in a comic shop on the day &quot;The Death of Superman&quot; came out. This video breaks down what that version looked like. Stories change so much. https://www.patreon.com/posts/77382180

Meticulous recreation of the Star Trek: TNG sets, showing how they were laid out and how they made the ship feel bigger than it was. So much love went into these models. If you&#39;re a fan, this is worth your time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmVW24CSkr0&amp;list=LL&amp;index=39&amp;t=50s

Been working on this page for an upcoming book. There&#39;s nothing I love more than comics about being socially awkward especially if it can be done without dialogue.
