Scare Campaign, by David Blumenstein

Buy my new book, “Scare Campaign”.

Posted on December 2, 2013July 25, 2014 by David

This is my new comic book, a collection of my better work from the last few years (other than Bret Braddock comics). It’s pretty small! It is pretty good, though. Most of it has appeared on this blog, but never been published. It contains personal stories of people who shit me off — many of…

“Sciensatics” in the new Going Down Swinging

Posted on October 17, 2010October 17, 2010 by David

I forgot to mention at a useful or appropriate time that I’ve got a comic in the recently released issue (#30) of the venerable Aussie literary journal Going Down Swinging! It’s called Sciensatics, and it’s a somewhat freeform gag on various interesting cult-type “religions”. I’m only posting about it now because the mag got reviewed…

Uncle Eddie makes me think, Precinct art for sale

Posted on July 1, 2009July 1, 2009 by David

This blog post by animation artist Eddie Fitzgerald made me think! Also, I uploaded some Precinct art I did for an exhibition last year to RedBubble so they can be purchased as little greeting cards and nice art prints: I’ve bought a couple things myself so I can see what the quality’s like. I’ll let…

Me, on the radio

Posted on May 15, 2009June 18, 2009 by David

As I’m featured in the very nice Superheroes & Schlemiels exhibition currently at the Jewish Museum here in Melbourne, they’ve kindly given me the opportunity to appear on ABC 774 this Sunday with the Museum’s Helen Light to talk about… comic books and Jews, probably. We’ll be on around 10:30am, speaking with Alan Brough, which…

David Blumenstein

I’m a service designer, cartoonist and co-founder of Squishface Studio. I’ve done comics for The Guardian, Crikey and Australian MAD. Currently also deputy president of the Australian Cartoonists Association.

I usually write about things that shit me off, from bad bosses (The Bret Braddock Adventures) to pick-up artists (#takedown) to white supremacist trolls (The Internet’s Most Trolled Cartoonist) to predatory cults (Why Los Angeles is Scientology’s perfect city) and nasty tech bros (Octane Render: Cartoonists talk about A.I. art).

I’m working on graphic novels called Sciensatics (about cultists) and Free Money, Please (about wealth and passive income).

Sarah Howell

I regularly collaborate with my wife, Sarah Howell.
