Got the go ahead to start posting IKOR, a horror fantasy comic I’ve been doing in collab with writer James Dowling! Here’s the start of chapter 1!
Panel from IKOR that I feel stands real nice on it’s own.
Big mood. Realized I’ve been in this city for a Whole Decade, On Purpose, so possibly I think? I love it here?

I think nearly the entire Horror genre boils down to the idea that it is worthwhile to fight until your very last breath. Even, and maybe especially, when there is no hope.

Commissions are open for the month of July! As well, I'm offering a new option of Bust commissions for $75, as you can see here at vgen.co/Magistelle !
Weird fungus I saw on a rotting log on the way to work! Enchanted by how purple it was. It turned an off white color when I checked it on my way home.

No amount of marketing advice or hustle culture bullshit about monetizing followers will fix the structural problems that make freelance art careers so difficult. Maybe spend more time asking why people can’t/don’t want to pay us? Why society can’t support us?

My #1 advice for new folks looking to break into comics!!!

1) Never, ever quit your day job. In fact, maintain that career for your entire life, never even thinking of it as a goal that one day you will work 'Full time in comics."

Comics will not last. Your day job will.
