Steve Lieber: NYCC K-19 @stevelieberart.bsky.social · May 16

Logging on

From Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen. New hardcover edition coming in June.

Starkly lit black and white comics panel. Jimmy Olsen, in a sleeveless tee and old sweatpants, is on his elbows and knees in a dark, filthy SRO in Gotham City. His face is in his hands and he is miserable, saying “IT'S
THIS! IT'S ALL OF THIS! THIS DARKNESS AND MADNESS-“
Written by Matt Fraction. Drawn by Steve Lieber. Lettered by Clayton Cowles.

Independent comics as an industry would barely exist these days without the tireless efforts of Kickstarter's staff behind the scenes. As they advise, keep supporting all the amazing projects you already are, but have their back in the process.

‼️🚨KICKSTARTER WORKERS ARE ON STRIKE🚨‼️

As of 8am this morning, the workers of Kickstarter United/OPEIU Local 153 are on strike.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BOYCOTT! Creators and allies, please continue using and supporting the platform.

Kickstarter United is on strike!
We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform
swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.

I’d like to take a moment to apologize for cropdusting artist alley rows K and L. I’ve learned a lot from this and I’ll be reflecting on how best to make amends.

#Comics folks, I need you to pull up to this one.

The world sucks right now, and we have the opportunity to do a little bit of good for a displaced and marginalized member of our community. Please join me in supporting this KS campaign!

www.kickstarter.com/projects/den...

If you're somebody who values supporting marginalized voices in comics, here's your chance to put your money where your values are!

The writer of this RINGO NOM’D INDIE COMIC (and a very dear friend of mine) is a Syrian Refugee who has been through more continuous hardships than I have space to list here; constantly navigating visa applications, unstable living conditions, predatory landlords (limited options as a refugee).

Anas just wants to make comics and live a normal life like what so many of us take for granted. Backing this campaign will help Anas to take the next step toward freedom and autonomy, helping to fund a move to another country with more stable employment options. This is truly one of the most important comics purchases you will ever make.

Middle Eastern and North African comics creators are some of the most underrepresented in the comics industry of the western world. Anas isn’t running a GoFundMe to support this move, and is not asking for charity. Simply, Anas is using their talent for storytelling, along with Dennis’ gorgeous art, to offer you a beautiful experience in the comics medium, that also goes toward funding a better life for Anas.

I’m so proud of Anas, and humbled by their experiences and perseverance. I would like to see Anas’ Dream realized, and I’d love to see this community help to make that happen. Please join me in pledging to the Etheres Kickstarter campaign! (link below).

More from Barria. It says something about the monstrous absurdity of the era that some of the finest editorial cartooning was by a Reuters photographer.

Reuters photo of Trump’s head amidst a bunch of pumpkins.

Famous Reuters photo by Carlos Barria of Trump in the cab of a truck, screaming.

Even more famous photo by Carlos Barria. Trump shouting at a kid mowing the white house lawn.

Carlos Barria took just about every great photo of the first Trump administration. He’s in Portland right now documenting what’s actually going on.

All right, just turned in the last strips of my second year on FLASH GORDON. That's 730 installments in the bag -- appearing in a rough average of 1.5 panels per strip, I've drawn Flash about 1,095 times. Still takes me a couple tries to get his hair right. Tomorrow we start on year three ⚡

Flash Gordon and Prince Thun take on a squad of green-skinned Shark Men

And old man looks up at a mural of Flash Gordon crossing swords with Ming the Merciless.

Flash Gordon frees Edda from her locked helmet, and the mechanic can't help herself from laying a smooch on him.

Flash Gordon negotiates with Empress Aura. "Tch. Fine," she sneers, conciliating. "Savior of the Universe..."

He smiles back. "You love it."

For you signature collectors, I’ll have Artist Alley cheat sheets at my table at NYCC! There are 140 real people on the cover of the deluxe Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen. At least 12 of them are in artist alley! Some folks are already trying to get *everyone* in the crowd to sign the endpapers.

Two copies of Superman’s pal Jimmy Olsen, along with the cheat sheet

The endpapers, an array of bow ties. Eleven of the bow ties are already signed.
