The Underdog Mini-Comics are back for good!

We already have a line up of the next few ready to go. After those are published, we're opening our doors to tell your stories!

We're calling for creators of all kinds. If you have a script, a comic, or only an idea, send us what you've got at [email protected]

Our mini-comics are going to become a trove of stories with no end in sight. We hope you'll be right there with us!

Hey everyone, I’m reaching out to see if anyone wants to help support this little queer + woman owned comic book shop in Portland. They have 5 days left of their Kickstarter campaign. (Ends on May 7 2019.)

Books with Pictures is an inclusive feminist space that carries a variety of diverse comics. The first time I stopped in, I was excited to see the large number of self published zines by trans creators. As Katie Proctor says in the video, “...we have protagonist in our comics that are people of color, that are people with disabilities, all sorts of queer comics, we especially focus on having comics with people of different genders and sexualities, and really just being a space where absolutely anyone can find a comic book that feels like home for them.”

Books with Pictures is planning to move into a new space, but they need some help with moving costs, remodeling the bathroom to make it more accessible, and other repairs.

One of the rewards is a tote curated be me! For $100 you’ll receive a BwP tote filled with a BwP sticker, a signed copy of the Gumballs trade paperback, and an original drawing by me!

I understand $100 might be a lot, but if you can consider donating a dollar or sharing this campaign that would be appreciated! LINK: Books with Pictures Great Big Move!

Thanks!

I want to thank @ONeillJones for illustrating two new characters for my next StrangeLore book. This is August. He's half Filipino and Black and a powerful warlock, or Malican. Malicans are top-shelf witches and warlocks. He's also Jackson's ex.

Happy National Comic Book Day! 

If you’re looking for an American comic, I recommend Gotham Academy. It’s like the Soul Eater NOT! of the Batman series. The art is super pretty and the story is fun.

WAKING LIFE: Book One: Pleasant Places by Ben Humeniuk

Sometimes growing up means leaving your dreams behind. For Robbie Boone, childhood fantasies are giving way to a very real goal of being an animator. And he's giving it all he's got -- even if he misses out on the rest of high school in the process. 

Enter the Princess of the Dreaming Realm, Robbie's childhood best friend. Sick of being outgrown by human companions, she's determined to find out what's so special about the Waking World. Unfortunately, that might be exactly what an old enemy's been counting on... ENCHANTED meets DEGRASSI, in a character-driven high school dramedy, inspired by Winsor McCay's classic comic strip LITTLE NEMO IN SLUMBERLAND. "A delightful new spin on an old classic - Ben Humeniuk launches his innovative cartooning into dreamland with gusto!" - Jonny Jimison (THE DRAGON LORD SAGA) "Wonders abound as nuanced characterization makes WAKING LIFE a genuinely fresh reinterpretation of Winsor McKay's original dream genre, reinvigorating the classic premise for modern readers." - Bryan J.L. Glass (THE MICE TEMPLAR)

Available today at your local comic book store, indie bookstore, library, or via Amazon!

If you’re in the Houston area, Ben Humeniuk ( @hipogram ) will be signing and doing sketches at Space Cadets from 2 PM to 6 PM!
