Here Be Dragons! A silly comic about a knight who attempts to slay a dragon, and a dragon who simply doesn't have the time. I'll have physical copies at Prairie Comics Festival tomorrow and Sunday (October 5th and 6th), and I'll put extras in my online shop after 💚

Here we go for self-promo, which I never am fond of doing but know I have to do it in this case! My self-published, indie comic, Robust Heat is now in pre-launch on Kickstarter! You can find it here.

It is going to be printed into a full volume, graphic novel, with 150+ pages. Full colour, American standard comic book size (6.625" x 10.25"). The printed version is going to be more polished, have rewritten, relettered, redrawn parts that the webcomic version does not have. If you like slight Baccano! vibes mixed with Netflix's Hollywood (2020), then please consider checking it out :D. The actual launch date is going to be on April 2nd, and if you'd like an email notification when the campaign goes live, the notify me button will do the job for you. And if you have anyone in mind that you think might enjoy these series, please pass this along to them! I know I don't have a wide reach/big audience, and what my comic is--I consider kind of niche-so I'm hoping to get this word of mouth get rolling. Thanks in advance \O/ PS, I will be in PCF (Prairie Comics Festival), and hopefully DCAF (Dartmouth, not Dublin, Comics arts Festival) later this year. If any of you are from those spaces, do let me know if you'd be interested in local pick-ups.

PRAIRIE COMICS FESTIVAL 2022

PRAIRIE COMICS FESTIVAL 2022

West End Cultural Centre September 10th & 11th, 2022 Visit: Prairie Comics Festival This weekend I will be a guest artist at Prairie Comics Festival (PCF), a little, hometown gathering of comic artists and writers of the prairies, showing off their work, and presenting workshops and panels. A wide variety of styles, age groups, Queer content, and overall friendly vibe; for people that enjoy and…

Hoo boy I sure did love going to a Sexuality in Comics panel about queer representation in comics that was led primarily by two people on the ace spectrum. 

The Prairie Comics Festival is a legitimate delight. Best moment of the panel was when the crowd all started chanting for more asexual and aromantic representation. 

We also talked about the hyper-sexualization in queer communities that can often make queer content inaccessible to children and often works to support the fetishization of queer people. It was a really important issue to me because I remember how frustrating it was growing up and having the only queer spaces around that I knew of being bars. I wanted to meet cute girls when I was young, and wanted to be able to see content of wlw that didn’t involve hyper-sexual scenes that I was scared to watch in my house.

[scandalousadventures]

I had such an incredible time at Prairie Comics Festival this weekend for my first time tabling. I met so many cool new people and had so many incredible conversations, not to mention how so many people loved my work! 😭 It was so WILD to not only meet Em Carroll again but to be on a horror comics panel with them! They even bought one of my little dolls. LIKE WHAT!!! SO SO flattered. Such a rush of a weekend, and tomorrow will definitely be a recovery day. I feel like I made so many new friends, and after a weekend surrounded by art and artists I can't wait to start making so many new things.
