You can pickup three issues of my new ongoing series with @morganbeem.bsky.social, The Author Immortal, right now at your local comic shop or digital. A beautiful watercolor portal fantasy that explores death of the author, identity, and what happens when you outgrow stories that raised you.

Some games I loved this year! Not necessarily my games of the year, but games that stood out to me, felt super clever, or otherwise connected deeply.
I'll thread more, but these are the four that I keep thinking about a lot, just incredibly well executed experiences

This year kind of sucked, but @giulia-lalli.bsky.social and I are ramping up to release DRAGONPROOF Aat @ahoycomicmags.bsky.social in the spring, and people DID rediscover Atlantis Wasn’t Built for Tourists this year. Proud of what I managed to do, even if I wish for more.

Like many, this year has been extremely challenging for me. But on a positive note, I couldn’t be more proud of releasing The Author Immortal with the best collaborators I could ask for. Cheers.
