The Jimothy Comics Archive
Jimothy is a malformed raccoon from Ballard with a purple cape and an unreasonable amount of hope. These are his comics — a cozy zoo-delivery serial, a handful of pages about how we treat each other, and a longer conversation about art and new tools. Every page is free to read.
Jimothy's Journey
The all-ages serial. A friend at Woodland Park Zoo asks for something, Jimothy collects shinies, braves two highway crossings, trades at the Fremont Arts Council, and delivers. The requests never really stop — there is always one more small voice from next door.
Jimothy's Journey #1: Bearnard's Feathered Quest
Bearnard the bear is bored behind his rocks and wants something with feathers for dress-up.
Jimothy's Journey #2: The Otter's Shiny Rock
The otter saw what Jimothy did for Bearnard and asks for the smoothest, most beautiful shiny rock he can find.
Jimothy's Journey #3: The Plastic Flower
Everyone thinks the fox is graceful, but every flower planted in her garden wilts.
Jimothy's Journey #4: The Owl's Paint
Owl is painting and running low on colour.
Jimothy Speaks
Advocacy one-shots. The same warmth as the serial, aimed at heavier subjects: how raccoons are treated, disability and inclusion, and getting through the grey months.
Let's Talk About Raccoons
Raccoons are persecuted in every state simply for existing.
Different Doesn't Mean Less
A boy in a wheelchair, a dachshund in a cart, a service dog, an owl.
Bringer of Sunshine
When Seattle's days get short and the sky stays grey, the Sads can take over.
United, Not Divided
Neighbours have stopped seeing neighbours and started seeing enemies.
The AI Conversation
A five-part opinion series about AI and art, meant to be read in order. Jimothy argues for looking before judging and listens to the people who are genuinely afraid. If that is not what you came here for, the other two sections are above.
The AI Conversation #1: “That's AI Slop!”
Jimothy holds up a drawing and gets shouted down before anyone looks at it.
The AI Conversation #2: Every New Tool Was Called Cheating
Photography, 1839.
The AI Conversation #3: The Real Fear
The man yelling on the bench isn't really angry at the machine.
The AI Conversation #4: You're Right About Some Things
Jimothy concedes the ground worth conceding: training consent deserves a real conversation, entry-level artists are genuinely hurting, and discovery is harder than it's ever been.
The AI Conversation #5: What We Build Next
Instead of arguing, Jimothy gets everyone in one room — artists, programmers, musicians, animators, disabled creators, kids, grandparents — and they build something together.
