Dear Students,
Here is my new summer semester avatar: Professor HotDog.
I don’t skateboard but Professor HotDog sure does. This is one of the things I love most about making comics.
When I draw myself as a moody hotdog on a skateboard I actually feel like a moody hot dog on a skateboard. I love drawing myself as a hot dog leaning into a turn or boldly coasting.
Some kind of old style virtual reality brought about by just wiggling a pen on a piece of paper
How are we able to do this?
And why are we able to do this?
And why would we want to?
One reason: my HotDog avatar can smoke imaginary cigarettes all day long.
Sincerely
Prof. Smokey the HotDog

What to do with our election frustration...
This morning I woke up feeling like I’m living in a Twilight Zone episode. I’m jumping from a deep denial phase to a deep proactive phase, skipping anger and depression. Because now we’re about to enter a period when what we demand, how we demand it, and how strongly we keep at it will matter more than ever before.Â
This is a time for speaking up, taking action, and being an active participant of democracy. If we care about your civil liberties, we must show so by engaging with solutions, making demands, and connecting with our communities. And yes, it includes reaching out to those who disagree with us and keeping an open mind to finding a common ground.
Reciting trusted resources (mostly from Ann Friedman & Aminatou Sow), I’m compiling this list of charities and communities you can get involved with and/or donate to. It’s not a complete list, but it’s a list (in no particular order) you can act on TODAY. It’s the perfect place to put our restless energy.
Civil Liberties/Rights & Environment:
American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), who didn’t beat around the bush this morning with their tweet “Should President-elect Donald Trump attempt to implement his unconstitutional campaign promises, we’ll see him in court.”
The Center For Constitutional Rights “Resistance is our civic duty” is how they signed their public response to yesterday’s results.
Everyone For Gun Safety
Human Rights Watch
Society of Professional Journalists Legal Defense Fund defending freedom of speech for journalists
Union of Concerned Scientists fighting on all fronts such as global warming, sustainability, racial equality, and more
Gender & Reproduction:
The Center For Reproductive Rights, here’s their public statement about last night.
Human Rights Campaign largest national LGBTQ civil rights organization
Planned Parenthood Action Fund
Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network largest US anti-sexual violence organization/hotline
National Organization for Women activist organization you can donate to AND volunteer for
Urgent Action Fund for Women’s Human Rights
National Network Of Abortion Funds
Immigration:
Immigration Equality world’s biggest LQBTQ immigrants rights organization
Immigrant Defense Project providing advice, advocacy, and relief for immigrants, and more
Kids in Need of Defense focusing on unaccompanied immigrant and refugee children
Race:
National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP, America’s oldest and largest non partisan civil rights organization): & the NAACP Legal Defense Fund
Black Lives Matter
Stand with Standing Rock solidarity to halt theDakota Access Pipeline
Equal Justice Initiative has a focus on mass incarcerations & excessive racially biased punishment in the US
The Southern Poverty Law Center “Tomorrow, and every day in the future, we’ll fight for the rights of the most vulnerable people in America - those victimized by bigotry and discrimination”
Faith:
MPowerChange celebrating diversity, rooted in Muslim inclusion in the States
The Council on American-Islamic Relations

Witchlight
by Jessi Zabarsky
Witchlight is Jessi Zabarsky’s lushly illustrated shoujo-adventure comic that introduces Lelek the witch as she blows through town one day, kidnapping the peasant girl Sanja. The unlikely pair grow more entangled as they travel together, looking for the missing half of Lelek’s soul – the source of her true magical abilities. Both women are seeking to learn, in their own ways, how to be whole again. This book will collect the serialized story all into a single volume, including the heart-gripping conclusion and other all-new material.
200 pages 7x10.25" BW paperback w/ color cover.
Jessi Zabarsky lives in Chicago, drawing comics, growing vegetables, and spotting bunnies. Her comics are generally about very small spaces and moments in very big worlds.
Witchlight is scheduled for release December 2016.

Ashley Hardy is a ceramic artist in Portland, Oregon. I love her work for it’s simplicity and her use of bold color and textured glazes. She has a unique approach to handle building, and I appreciate the diversity in her handle shapes. The tri-boob mug is the most signature of her pieces. You can find her work online at www.ashleyhardyceramics.com, or follow her on Instagram. Â

Stores selling books, comics and records in the United States for independent artists and small publishers.
I publish comics, music and art books, and so far the biggest problem I have encountered in small & independent publishing is distribution. Starting last fall I began collecting information on every store I could find that sells independent media. Their name. Where they are. Their websites. Email addresses. Phone numbers. What they sell (in the most general sense). Now I have this list of over 1,200 book stores, comic stores and record shops in the United States, and I’m making it available for both public use in hopes that we can work together to find a collective solution. We got all this stuff made, and now what?
On top of the spreadsheet there is a form where you can add information, correct information or throw in general suggestions. If this is something you have a lot to say on the topic please email me at [email protected].
I think this spreadsheet is useful, but by no means do I view it as a solution. It is the first of four questions that I hope will lead to a larger more useful way to self-distribute.
1. Who & where are the stores?
That is this spreadsheet. Who are our allies? Where are they? How do we contact them?
2. What do these stores sell? What are they like?
Are they record stores that also sell comics? Are they used bookstores that sell some small press? Are they mainstream comic stores that will sell some zines on consignment? Is it a large chain of record stores based out of DC that has one buyer for all of their stores?
We need to track of all of this information on a spreadsheet in a way that is clean and easily searchable.
3. How do I market my art to these stores?
So we know what these stores are like, but how do we know they will like us? How do we know if we will like them? Really, what we need is a matchmaking service from artists and publishers to stores. Nobody benefits from unsold records and books sitting on shelves.
4. Vibes: what are they?
Questions 1, 2 and 3 come together in a way that works for artists and works for stores. I don’t know what that looks like yet, but I want to figure it out.
Help JMC find more comics friendly but not necessarily comic shop- shops! Â
I don’t know about you, but I love seeing other artists’ studio spaces. An artist’s studio space can give you a look at an artist’s process, at all the hours of work behind …
