Dead End: Paranormal Park (the show) and Deadendia (the comic) are precious pieces of work. I'll fistfight anyone spreading hate towards it and its creator.

Hello comic artists 👋

I’m always looking to collab with new artists on anthology shorts.

So if you know of a project looking for short story pitches, and you need a writer - please reach out.

In short: I’m crap at keeping an eye out for new anthos 😅

Just read My Dad Fights Demons and it is a mix of really stupid (complimentary, think Beavis and butthead) and meta clever (I could quote panels at you all day but cba to do the required alt text so take my word from it, intertextual/multimedia cultural commentary abounds. Highly recommend!
