slowly & shyly revealing some art from my first graphic novel pitch I finished last week... ✨ it's been a balm to the soul to create a story that means so much to me, and w a lead of black & indigenous descent ? here are the 3 central characters, I love them with all of me
hello & happy may day from Proletariat Pug (cw: gore, child labor / slavery) made this barely 2 years ago & it's incredible how much worse the wealth gap, ecological destruction and global politics have become in just that time. we really got nothing to lose but our chains.
i just need to say that I love golden kamuy so much & can't believe the manga is on it's final arc 😭 first series I've ever known to not shy away from imperialism & indigenous struggle 🥺 Sugimoto is truly the ideal man: silly n soft until he ain't... plus, politics on point 😂
was going to limit this to my instagram story but it happened again last night and I... 🥲
new @thenib comic just dropped... 2019 was a wild year, met my foreign born cousins for the first time & tried MDMA in Berlin, enjoy my terrible German & crimes
part 1/2 - postin from the lands of Kiikaapoi, Peoria, Potawatomi, Myaamia & Ochethi Sakowin people... aka Chicago (derived from a native word for garlic, which is perfect for me cuz I live here now!)
was going to limit this to my instagram story but it happened again last night and I... 🥲
u ever love someone so symmetrical, so pretty, that it ruins your perception of self? 😒
happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay !! when I drew this 3 yrs ago I NO idea how far it would reach. I'm happy to finally share a corrected version with proper abbreviations, and even MORE state names of indigenous origin ♥️
never shared this in full anywhere before, but w the attacks on our rights, "protect the kids", & violence at schools acknowledging #pride month? I have a personal story for you. cw: child death, gun violence, hate crimes, racism (alt text included) (1/3)
feature about my ancestry for @thenib 's Power issue is up. it's the most personal / intense comic I've done & is historical & autobiographical... would mean a lot if you read it, especially if you're white or USAmerican. you'll learn something new. ? https://t.co/XfVmDStrSv
throwback 2 this boy who was both upset & moved by the word choice "beautiful"... like I had just played the exodia card to his blue eyes white dragon at the end of our duel… but how else can one describe those eyes? ? (I heard it's #NationalAnimeDay #comic #callboyspretty2020)
heatwave's hitting LA & it's not even May yet... many more nights like this ahead... ? #comics #Oil #summer
