We don't post our views on much, but since there is a trend going around, it's worth mentioning that we at DFP are *strongly!* against generative AI of any sort (artwork, writing, etc). It's even addressed in our contract.

Small mistake on our part (or big), but apparently Robert J. Sodaro's Wülf Girlz is available to order in the November Philviews from Philbo Distribution.

Orders already are in, so get in on this one-shot horror comic or ask your LCS to order on philbodistribution.com

Late last year I found a last, small stack of The Tainted Ones comic. Written and drawn to be an inexpensive sample of my art and writing, it's had positive feedback. Same vibes as The Kirklyn Horror, and I'd like to expand it. Just haven't landed on a plot I like...yet.

Skulls are so much fun to draw--my whole life really. These were no different.

Have you been hiding under a rock?

There is an on-going Chadhiyana series in A Kid and a Comic newspaper. 7 issues a season & a new adventure each season.

This season: Chadhiyana searches for a missing girl only to find a deadly foe who will haunt her for issues to come

Shout out to my art prints printer, Dean Morris at ThinkGPC for going above & beyond to make sure I had these new #Chadhiyana prints (after some technical difficulties).

Haven't even posted the artwork yet, but he did such a great job, I had to give him props.

It's rare I post my personal views on social media. Mostly because I have businesses to run & I worry how it will affect things. I'm also very much a believer in acting, not reacting. And yet, I second guess myself often--even my art which is one of the things I can act with.

Another new feature coming to our comic publications: a new Dark Fire Press ad, featuring J. M. DeSantis's Gentleman Cthulhu (the character that started this whole operation)!

"Dark Fire Press books & comics. For impeccable reading materials. Cheers!" ~GC

The New Year is upon us, & I have a solid list of shows for the first three months.

Because I'm cutting back a bit & refocusing that time elsewhere, these show posts will come in blocks like this, including pre-show commissions (for the upcoming block) & newest releases.

See you on the road in '26

This seems to be a trend, so...

It's been an odd year creatively (which I'll post more about tomorrow), and very Nosferatu-focused (following the remake--because, of course!). A couple variant covers. Chadhiyana. Branching out into some animal art.

Looking to do a lot more in 2026! #artvartist2025

I have so much to be proud of & grateful for this year. I also have some things I'm not content with (like the creative output vs the hours spent on shows).

I wrote a fuller blog about it: jmdesantis.com/2025/12/year...

Here at Dark Fire Press we love to share all our strange little "accomplishments", like that our comics will now include standard dressing for titles without their own images.

And who knows? This may even be a hint at some coming initiatives...

And consider the Wülf Girlz themselves, looking neither like Red Riding Hood, the archetypal "wolf girl" (as prey/potential victim), or like the scantily-dressed virgins and vampires that wandered amid Jean Rollin's distinctively dreamlike 1970s movies.
