Hi Bluesky, I'm Karen, sometimes working professionally as K Czap. My two books are the queer utopian mixtape that is Fütchi Perf (Uncivilized Books, 2017) and Four Years (Czap Books, 2024), a comic that tries to cure trauma with friendship. I like making work about friendship and transcendence
Cover to Fütchi Perf, futuristic people sitting underneath dark blue waves in the shape of the Lake Erie coastline Interior page from Fütchi Perf, with two young future punks finding Perf House for the first time Cover to Four Years, Betty Yaris sitting, surrounded by yellow flowers Interior page from Four Years where Betty and Vivvie are getting into a white truck to drive around Providence

Just announced at NYCC! A new Vertigo series from Grace and I about fandom, obsession... and parasocial chaos :)
the cover for Fanatic, a new series from DC vertigo by Hannah Templer and Grace Ellis. The cover depicts a woman cast half in shadow, looking back over her shoulder in a look of surprise as she is caught holding a shovel and wearing a tattered costume in a wooded area. The colors are in two tones of blue and red

my hands are shaking with rage and grief. i shouldn't have to do this. the edited text on this image should not exist. this should not still be happening in 2025
a panel from my entry in Samidoon. it is sepia tone of a palestinan family walking. the caption reads "in 2024, the images from inside Gaza echo my family's storie from Palestine. the walk away from our tattered homes looks the same as 50 years ago." the 2024 is crossed out witht 2025 written next to it. my hands are shaking with rage and grief as i type

Yay it’s my book’s birthday; don’t yell about pubes in public
An angry character shouts in the distance, “I hope they step on a million stray legos. I hope they get an ingrown pube!” A second character in the background responds, “Jelly you gotta not yell about pubes in public. Also, mind the ice.” A nervous young person with freckles and short hair hides behind an evergreen bush in the foreground.
