From “Solidarity” (2026)
2 panels from a graphic novel, ok e blending into the next. The top panel shows high school students holding protest signs that read “the people putting kids in cages are always the bad guys” and “due process is for everyone” The bottom panel shows a group of protestors and their kids gathered on a city street holding signs up for passing cars and busses.

This is Gavin Newsom, grinning like an idiot for cameras while he helps police steal every last bit of belongings and shelter people have.

Gavin is not the answer.

Wish you folks paid half as much attention to what Gavin does with his power as you do to his stupid memes.

How can you see what is happening and not be changed?
Black and white illustration of a young woman standing in front of a store window filled with stacks of vintage TVs. On each screen is a depiction of real protests and law enforcement violence under the Trump administration.

Digital layout was done a while ago, but just now getting around to doing the final art for this one. (I jump around a lot when I’m working on books.) Decided to go big and make the original page art 18x24.

Printout of a layout/sketch for a splash page in The Echo: Solidarity. Image shows the back of a young woman with a messenger bag as she looks at a store’s display window. The large window is filled with a variety of retro TVs, stacked on top of each other to form a wall and each picturing a different scene from violent protests the night before.

Sunday morning vibes for sure.
2 panels of a sequential illistration. First panel shows young woman groggy and struggling to wake up in a dark hotel room. Light seeping in from behind the blinds suggests it is mid day. Second panel shows woman sitting on side of bed, head in hands, while coffee brews on a nearby table.

All you’re saying is that he had a calm demeanor when he argued for horrific ideals.

That is not a start.

It’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. And you fell for it.
The journalist Jeff Sharlet sets the record straight on Charlie Kirk: 'He was an opponent of free speech. There's no other way to cut it, for a man who created something called Professor Watchlist, School Board Watchlist, to name and frighten people from teaching, who advocated restrictions on what school teachers could teach, who called for - and there's a clip you can see online — who called for the televised public executions, and he had a pretty broad category in mind. But what was really chilling was he wanted this to be required viewing for children. And you can look at this clip, and you can see his colleagues. They're sort of trolling, but Kirk, again and again, pulls it back to seriousness, and he says, "No, no, no, this isn't a joke. This has to be a holy experience, a teaching experience for children, watching enemies be killed." That is not a champion of free speech!'

Gavin Newsom thinks we should honor Charlie Kirk by continuing his work.

Charlie Kirk’s “work” was spreading these hateful ideas…

Fuck Gavin Newsom.

The hardest hits against Charlie Kirk are just pointing out to people the things he said in life.

Eh…some of them have gone beyond denouncing political violence.

A certain democrat who really wants to be president urged people to honor Charlie by continuing his work.

Flip that shit and reverse it honey.

I made a comment to someone else and you have been replying to me all damn day. You initiated this.

You are free to walk away at any time. (Walk away ≠ sling insults and expect to not get a response)

Apparently they are already copying Nazi recruiting posters.

Don’t get upset just because you got cocky and whiffed.
Knighthawk throws an attitude and assumes everyone is following them while not comprehending the comment they are replying to at all.

Once I’m done drawing a page it gets scanned and then slid back into the sleeve on top of the layout so I can quickly reference it for continuity.

Then it’s draw, sleep, repeat until all the art is done.

Last steps are editing and pre-press, then it’s sent off to be printed.
Binder open to a 2 page spread. The left side shows a finished, shaded pencil drawing with all text removed, ready to be scanned. The page on the right shows the next layout sketch to be drawn. Both pages are covered in notes that will be used when I am doing the final text layout (aka writing the final draft)
