My 2024 Comics in Review.

It’s been personally, a rough year for me. But I’m thankful to work on so many really fun projects that kept me in a mentally good place. Thanks to my editors and collaborators for being patient with me and for bringing together such awesome work ❤️

#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).

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Don’t know what it is, but I’ve had a few bad encounters with customs for no reason. One shouted at me and told me to get back in line because I didn’t know my hotel’s address by heart. Last March at Newark airport, a police officer with an assault rifle asked me more questions than customs. No thx.

Sadly, I won’t be travelling down to the States for NYCC this year. Gonna miss it. I’ve always had an amazing time there. But I gotta look out for my own safety in these dark times. Anyway, enjoy this compilation of my bad Laszlo impressions.

Screenshot of text I’ve written that reads: I really want to rant about the way the world is going and how the creative industries are being destroyed and how those two things are so closely tied together and I want to complain about how hard it is to just exist and create right now and how it feels like you always need to be 'on' and the pressure to always be making content and be visible that's pushed on us by this capitalist fast tech-driven world we're in right now and how it's stifling creativity in the worst way and how it feels like you need to choose between being visible and actually making good art and experimenting and being a human being but I am exhausted and all my energy has been drained

That’s so good to hear that! It’s a shame that more than half of the places I featured in the series are no longer there.

The more I’m seeing of Shang Chi’s design and how much I enjoyed Jason Loo’s Undead Iron Fist 1, the more I’m looking forward to this series.

Pick up the issue at your LCS October 29.
