I know everything is awful right now, so something to keep in mind: JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERGALACTIC SPECIAL by me, @nicoleamaines.bsky.social, Travis Moore, @tamrabonvillain.bsky.social and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou comes out in *four weeks* and features the two coolest trans superheroes in comics.
The Ick - a giant purple monster with blonde hair - looms over a screaming man.
If you’ve been planning to pre-order ORLA! - the quirky, gory, horny horror romcom from me, @sallycantirino.bsky.social, @dearbhlala.bsky.social, @letteringbear.bsky.social & @madcavestudios.com - make sure to let your comic shop know you want it this weekend before FOC this coming Monday!
Orla Bard, looking radiant, walks down a residential street next to Gwyn, Orla wearing a bathrobe and slippers while Gwyn is dressed in a sexy nurse Halloween costume.
Orla! has been a big comic for me. Not just one of my fave things I’ve ever written, but looking at my upcoming comics and stuff I’m pitching, it’s nearly all in conversation with Orla! or building on its ideas.

💗 MARY SUE ISSUE 5 🧛🏻♀️
And with that, we’ve finished the first arc of MARY SUE (complete with pining and a cliffhanger!) I’m so proud of this fandom love letter, of the Mary Sues in all of us, of fandom as a whole - fandom is one of the most amazing, beautiful human experiences.
and doing gorgeous work too!
Orla Bard, looking radiant, excitedly watches as Gwyn reaches behind his counter at the bookshop, saying, “Your pre-order came in. More horny filth from your fave, JOHN LEES” with the JOHN LEES sloppily edited in by me.
