"You should kill him instead," I say. "You could be a murderess." I love that word. Murderess.

"He's not worth it," she says.

But it would be worth it. Of course it would. I used to read about murderesses, hidden in the back of the library. The big book of murderesses. I read that book again and again. That was the first time I fell in love. Page 67. She killed her whole family in the middle of the day one Sunday afternoon. In her picture, she scowled.

My murderess.

I'm trying to put more hopeful weird alive art into the world. Otherwise I'm helpless.

My book of dirty stories is weird and dirty and kind. Read it to yourself in bed. Or put it in the hands of someone who needs it and don't say a word. Never speak of it again!

I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval β€” both

5 Calls can help you make the call:

A Hellraiser set that collects 17 issues that I wrote just broke half a million on Kickstarter.

Industry standard is, creators receive a one-time payment for licensed comics like this. I don't get any money from the Kickstarter.

I have $56 +a head cold. Support my Ko-Fi?

if your roommate does something inconsiderate, just talk to them. if they aren't home, just leave a knife in their door to remind them to come see you. don't stew about it. that doesn't help anything.

"Martin is going to Bible Camp for the summer. He's going to learn archery and swimming, and he's going to make new friends. He's pretty excited, but that's probably because nobody told him that this is a horror novel!"

Available in paperback again! Or as a DRM-Free ebook! Or just for free!

The Summer is Ended and we are not yet saved by Joey Comeau.

The Summer is Ended and we are not yet saved by Joey Comeau.

A splattery, surreal, slashy summer camp adventure that's also somehow every horror combined (including a nefariously Marigold-decaying Toronto) but the best/worst part isn't the graphic kid deaths but the very wrong way @hauntedsink.bsky.social gets me to care for Martin and his mom.

I like to tip with cash. I like to leave my house without my phone. I like when I see a dog and I say hello to the dog. I like when the person smiles too.

I like to draw a little map of my whole block and mark where the trees are and then one by one identify their species.

I like to be alive.
