Illustration of an albatross pressing its weight down on a curled-up person, its huge wings closing in on them. The person has long dark hair that curls around them, around the albatross' feet, and tangles around the albatross' body. The person is surrounded by corals, seashells, and forget-me-not flowers.

Comic page from my short horror comic, The Hue of Heaven. Cassandra, a disabled Black teenager housed in the Cardinal's supposedly-altruistic home for sick and disabled youth, anxiously wonders where her friend Antonio has been taken after the surgery that would cure him. She encounters the Cardinal on a walk and asks him if Antonio is walking. The page is tense and chilly, emphasizing the distrust Cassandra has for the Cardinal.

Illustration in limited color showing various vignettes of people engaging in fun summer activities, like going to a concert, but they are all unmasked. A figure in the center is isolated in a dark void, ignored by the other figures. The central figure is the only one masking

Comic page rendered in blue and orange tones. A Black woman stands in the middle of towering trees with large holes in their trunks. She wears a sheer slip dress and looks up at the orange sky. Above her are the words THE SKY HAS A CRACK IN IT.

Comic page rendered in pencil, ballpoint pen, and limited digital color. A woman looks up at a large, terrifying creature made of tree branches and severed body parts.

Andrea was wonderful to work with on Gender Queer, if you have a graphic novel pitch ready to go and you are looking for an agent you should send it in! Her submissions are open! www.andreacolvincreative.com/contact

Whoops, I stand corrected, apologies! Gillibrand HAS posted one (1) time about ICE on this website!

Please call her and tell her to publicly call for Hochul to support and pass New York 4 All, which would prevent NY agencies from coordinating with ICE!

This is one of the things that I find is most shocking to people outside Minnesota who don’t realize it yet—the scale at which everyone who isn’t white has been forced into a spectrum of hiding.
