TODAY IS THE DAY! Wild Animals #1 is out!

Neil's life was shattered when crooked cops killed his father. Now, 15 years later, with his mother dying and his world collapsing, he's backed into a corner and ready to fight back.

A promotional graphic for "Abuzz"- published by Maverick, written by Amy Chase, illustrated by Stelladia, colored by Ellie Wright, lettered by Taylor Esposito, and edited by Lauren Hitzhusen. The text reads "Love Stings" and features the book cover with students gossiping at a school dance. The background looks like a notebook with doodles and chibi versions of the supporting cast, as well as a smiling bee.

Amid everything in the world right now, it's hard to want to promote stuff, but I'd like to remind folks as Pride month is in its later days - ABUZZ is coming out this fall from Maverick, packed with messy, queer joy bundled up in a retelling of one of the Bard's best romantic comedies (Much Ado).

The distinction between "peaceful" and "violent" protests don't matter. The police will always crackdown on any dissent in a fascist regime. It's time that Democratic leaders understood that. Trying to make distinctions is futile. They will crack down on peaceful dissent by electeds all the same.

I have no problem saying that Greta Thunberg is braver than I’ll ever be. Admit it instead of deepening your cowardice and insisting that she’s done something selfish when she’s done something truly selfless.

Still from an episode of Columbo. He is is a restaurant kitchen next to a woman in red. Closed caption reads β€œThat smells like beef. Is that beef?”

Same as before, Columbo in a kitchen with the woman in a red outfit. He’s leaning over the gas hob. Closed caption reads: β€œThat’s beef.”

I have seen first-hand how emotionally, physically and mentally grueling the practice of making comics is. There is often very little reward for years of hard work. I cannot imagine sitting down and making a comic just to shit on your peers, never mind putting it out there on the internet.

An Evangelion fanart illustration of Eva Unit 01's head forming as the AT field out of the core. Within the core is Adam staring out. The Eva head is riddled with holes that show the repeating AT Field Pattern, and from the chasms myriad eyes and red veins are clustered. The red veins reach out of the head itself to form the leaf veins of a giant red fig leaf, with the Eva head at it's center. The title, 'And The Eyes Of Them Both' comes from the verse: "And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked, and they sewed fig leaves together, and made for themselves aprons." Genesis 3:7
