I'm going to limit how much I spam about this... but! We just passed over 50%, at right around 8 hours into the campaign. That feels pretty cool 🖤

Thanks to everyone who's backed us so far, and welcome aboard to anybody seeing Malicent for the first time!

Every time I come back to this thing, I find myself even more obsessed with it…

Every page, I find myself muttering at some choice, some amazing yet deceptively simple drawing…

Hope everyone enjoyed the big finale to KAYA season 5. This was the mid-way "Empire Strikes Back" part of the story for me and I'm really proud of how it turned out.

Up next: COLOSSAL KAYA, the between-arcs issue #32 (with a backup by Riley Rossmo), then on to SEASON 6!

"Outrage" is an overused word these days of internet clickbait. But, in this case, it's totally appropriate.

It’s wild how my entire life news media was hyperbolic and overdramatic about everything and now when the US is being taken apart in full view of the world they’re like ‘eyebrows were raised in DC today as the president’s private militia smashed their way into a church, in a move some find worrying’
