Thread on mentorship and some things you as comics creators can do to share your good fortune with others in your field.
Don't put Todd in a box.

It’s been a long time coming! It’s the biggest adventure yet, well over 200 pages by @knightofpaper.bsky.social @sebastiangirner.bsky.social & Jeff Powell and a new beginning for the series at its new forever-home publisher!
