Crush: First Love, New Talent

A comics anthology from up and coming queer comics creators about those first forays into romance.

Our new story, “Non-Repro Blue” is part of the Crush: First Love, New Talent anthology. Back it now on Kickstarter!

The anthology features 24 stories from a new generation of LGBTQ+ comics creators!

Published by StackedDeckPress, in association with Prism Comics and the city of West Hollywood.

“Non-Repro Blue” traces the influence of one man’s formative relationship with an artistic older man throughout his entire life.

🌈BACK IT ON KICKSTARTER! The campaign only runs until July 10th!🌈

This story is independent of our other Kannao works (Trust/Comfort/Resolve/Convection). 

Description:

An inquisitive Naoto Shirogane and a sick Kanji Tatsumi wind up sharing an umbrella and having a very awkward conversation.

In the weeks that go by afterwards, there are some decisions to be made.

After 5 years and over 260 pages, this Kannao story is finally complete! Trust, Comfort, Resolve, and Convection are now all combined into one handy PDF. Perfect for new readers, or for an easy re-read whenever you'd like.

We're also now offering a non-explicit version of Trust! Several pages have been merged or cut out entirely in order to remove any graphic depictions of sexual intimacy. Even so, this version does still contain dark themes, sexual themes, and nudity, and as such it is rated 18+.

The TCRC Complete Edition is available for purchase in several ways:

Gumroad (non-explicit version ONLY)

Itch.io (both versions)

Storenvy (both versions, up to 24 hour processing time)

Thank you so very much for all your support across the years. We hope you’ll continue to stick around to see what new comics we have in store, like our upcoming original work, Star Crossing: Doppio, coming this summer.

Convection is officially finished, and that brings our long Kannao storyline to an end. We could not be more appreciative for your readership and support.

If you would like to re-read Convection with more ease, we now have a pay-what-you-want PDF available!

And if you’d like to grab the entire Trust/Comfort/Resolve/Convection storyline in one go, we now have a Complete Edition! Read more about it in our post here.

Really, truly, sincerely: thank you for reading!

Hi! I have just found your kannao comic not so long ago and I am so in love with them already! I would like to buy the physical copies of A Bit Closer and Trust, however they do not ship to Indonesia (my home country) and I would like to know if you can have it shipped here or was it just storenvy settings?

Hello! I’m sorry, Tumblr did not alert us that we had any messages, so I don’t know when you sent this, : ( I’m sorry if it’s been a long time!

I’m not sure why Indonesia isn’t in Storenvy’s list... but don’t worry, we can ship there! :D

For Trust, you will want to pick “Book + PDF (No Ship Fee)” as your product option; for A Bit Closer, you can pick either version you want (just the book, or the whole bundle), and during checkout you can pick any country that isn’t Canada or the United States, so that it estimates the correct shipping cost. As long as you supply the full address to us during checkout, it’s okay if you pick another country in Storenvy’s list.

I’m sorry about the confusion and the late reply. I hope this helps! Thank you for your interest, :D

Convection Status

Oops, I’m sorry, I hyper goofed. I promised to post a double update on Thursday in order to counter the fact that I didn’t get Tuesday’s page done on time… but now it’s looking like I can’t get that done either.

I’m really sorry - it’s a combination of having company last week + a temporary debilitating medical concern last week + other projects overflowing into this week due to those two things. 

So I’m sorry to say there will not be a Convection update tomorrow after all, and in order to save my sanity I will instead push this Tuesday’s page to next Tuesday and this Thursday’s page to next Thursday. Especially sorry to do this so close to the last sudden one-week hiatus, but things keep getting away from me despite my best planning. I’ll keep trying my best to stay on track!

In short: no Convection updates this week, with regular updates starting up again next week. As always, thank you so so much for your patience and support with this project.
