spring dogwood, summer oak 🌳

A swallow with a tiny mandolin sings a song for a winter fairy who has been sleeping in the hollow of a tree. The illustration is framed by flowering dogwood branches and the accompanying text reads "Winter wakes to Spring's bright song and finds the world in bloom again.”

A pair of fairies descend a path through the forest with giant bluebells hanging overhead. One is dressed in a cape and doublet and the other wears a flowing gown. The illustration is framed by oak leaves and acorns, and the accompanying text reads "On summer nights the fairies don their finery and dance beneath the stars.”

Friends, I am as excited as heck to tell y'all about the NEWBERRY MEDIEVAL MINICOMIC PRIZE!

It's for emerging cartoonists (i.e. no major publisher work, excepting anthologies) considering making a short work that engages with a medieval subject (fic or nonfic). 1/

September comic event whirlwind is imminent, see you nerds in Bethesda and Columbus

Indie comics travel itinerary for this summer and fall! It'll be my first TCAF + trip to Toronto. Back to back cons in September is a bit of a gauntlet but SPX is my beloved as always, and CXC is local.

The international shipping situation is truly a nightmare; I'm really sorry to not offer shipping to the EU. Hopefully things will be easier to navigate in the future. But thank you regardless!

The glove makes it hard to tell what his hand is doing 🔍🤔 but the way the pinch/thumb draw was shown to me involved resting the arrow on the right side of the bow. It's a technique associated more with mounted archery than with longbows... but hell, if it works for him, Robin can make his own rules
