I was just discussing this … supporting creators outside of traditional publishers … with a pal. It’s so important … and it’s a tough and scary time to be doing your own things.

Also, this looks great, Joey!

just thinking about how the only longterm method of supporting creators you really enjoy is supporting their work outside of traditional publishers. Everyone has more to say than will ever be published elsewhere and self-publishing is often the only route for that stuff. 🖤

Ugh. I’m so with you.

As a naive kid, I didn’t think we’d be dealing with this garbage in 2025.

MALICENT BLACK DEALS ONLY IN DEATH

A newsletter??? In THIS economy?! Hey, nice to have you back. Hope everyone had a great time at NYCC … I kinda felt like Robert Nevelle here, holding down the fort while almost everyone else……

We’re still at it! Only $899 away from our goal :)

I know with Portland burning to the ground daily 🙄 and all of the news that’s going to be coming from NYCC over the next few days, it’s going to be easy to get lost in all the noise…

But my son and I have a campaign going for our comic on Kickstarter right now…
