I know it's a bit of a risk to have so many new faces/work that people may not be familiar with, but I want to use whatever platform I have to champion all kinds of artists, all kinds of approaches. I feel lucky to have a smart readership that gets that and shows their support.

ShortBox Comics Fair is live! My offering this year is a horror short story about a son questioning if he needs to rescue his mom from a newfound obsession with making art.

Have you met her yet? Don’t you want to make a collage with her? You’re going to tell her no???

Cartoon of a cute middle-aged woman asking if you want to make a collage with her.

This one is so sick. It hurt my feelings so badly lol

One of two fair comics that made me cry, @mariabrennmb.bsky.social's 'In The Heart of the Island' is a 90-page folk-fantasy tale about unquestioningly following decades-long held traditions and the dangers such a path can lead towards.

Available now at the fair!

I'm drinking a ginger ale with a maraschino cherry and some of the cherry syrup in it. In case you were wondering.

I really enjoyed A Little Beauty, @lauraknetzger.bsky.social's new minicomic. Botanical horror delights in uncontrollable growth, and this story transposes the uncanny sense of disconnect between nature and society onto the process of artistic creation. 🌻 www.shortboxcomicsfair.com/shop-sq4wj/p...

A panel from A Little Beauty. A smiling woman rests her head on a table cluttered with art materials as a vase of sunflowers(?) looms over her ominously. The caption reads: "The flowers never wilted." This is a horror story about feeling so inspired that you lose your sense of self in the dangerous territory of mania, but still. May at least one of those flowers never wilt.
