new comic i’m working on!!

I’ve had this project on the back burner for a while now—rewriting and polishing and fine-tuning for over a year—but recent threats to the trans community have spurred me to put it out into the world. Stay safe and stay brave, everyone 🩵🩷🤍

THE DEAD NAME 🪦 page 1/31

Born with supernatural sight and abilities, 14-year-old Jordan Kwon runs an exorcism charity to fulfill her community service requirements. On her latest mission, Jordan must confront something far scarier than the undead: coming out as trans.

#comic #trans #lgbtcomic

A black and white comic page numbered [01.] We open on a lone car travelling along a road lined with brush and evergreen trees.
An unseen speaker, from inside the car: [Hey, how much money do exorcists make?]
Cut to interior of the car. The speaker is the driver, a young woman with black hair with a dyed underlayer. She wears stud earrings and an over-sized sweater, an easygoing but mischievous smile on her face. Her companion slouches in the passenger seat, an androgynous teenager with shaggy dark hair and a t-shirt over a striped long-sleeve. They look out the window at the passing trees.
Driver: [When your clients pay you, I want a cut for the gas money. (This place is far.)]
A callout identifies the driver as [Stephanie Kwon: she/her, university student, 19.]
The passenger turns from the window, looking at Stephanie with a disinterested expression.
Passenger: [Nuna, it’s a charity. They don’t pay me.]
Author’s Note: [Nuna: Korean for “older sister, used by younger males.]
Stephanie: [HUH!? Why not?]
Passenger: [Child labor laws.]
A callout identifies the passenger as [Jordan Kwon: she/they (undercover as he/him), nonprofit exorcist, 14]
Stephanie glances critically at Jordan through the rear view mirror.
Stephanie: [Then why did we come all this way?]
Jordan earnestly holds up a sheet of paper and points to it.
Jordan: [Because it fulfills my community service requirement for student council.]

Solo Leveling’s Adaptation and the Echoes of Anti-Korean Sentiment and Japanese Imperialism

Solo Leveling’s Japanese release removed all references to Korea–a glaring decision when the Jeju Island Arc blatantly parallels Japan’s colonization of Korea.

the american dream
#iceoutboston #iceoutmlps #iceoutcomics #iceout

blue, white, and gray comic page. Three rows of seven figures each are arranged in the center of the page, which is overlaid in text from the US Naturalization Oath. Textboxes read: [A little more than two months ago, ICE raided a naturalization ceremony at Faneuil Hall. They arrested twenty-one immigrants mere minutes away from swearing their oaths of citizenship.]

Faneuil Hall, white against a blue sky, stands tall. Textboxes read: [Many have denounced the attack as a betrayal of American values. What ground is more sacred than Faneuil Hall, the so-called “Cradle of Liberty”? What citizenship is more precious than the one earned through merit, grit, and love of country? The American Dream was waiting at the end of that narrow road— only to be cruelly snatched away upon arrival.]

Two hands reach for each other across the page: the one on the left handcuffed, the one on the right shackled in iron. The pose is reminiscient of Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam. Textboxes read: [Faneuil Hall’s history runs deep— far deeper than its worshipers may realize. The Hall itself was named after its financier, prominent slave trader Peter Faneuil.] Below this is a silhouette of Faneuil Hall on a hill. Text placed underneath the Hall reads: [The temple to American liberty was built upon the enslavement and torture of Black bodies.]

An ICE officer, blue against a dark grat background, looks directly at the viewer and points his gun at them. Text reads: [Atrocities like the raid at Faneuil Hall pile up, overwhelming and increasingly violent, from sea to shining sea. How much of it is a betrayal of our valiant ideals, and how much of it is the baring of a false promise? At what point are the actions of our government no longer a mockery of the American Dream— but a symptom of the American Empire?]

🍵🌸 *butchifies your yaoi* #matchablossom #sk8 #sk8theinfinity

digital drawing of sapphic Matchablossom from “Sk8 the Infinity”. The characters are wearing their skateboarding outfits. Cherry is portrayed as a butch lesbian, with pink hair cropped to the nape of her neck. She points an accusatory finger at Joe. Joe is drawn as a tall, musclar, busty fem. The only change from her canon outfit is the addition of a white cloth wrapped around her chest to act as a sort of strapless bra. She grins back at Cherry, as if challenging her. The characters stand against a light green background, with pink bubbling up from the bottom of the screen. A white line crossed the background, intersecting into an explosion where the characters’ faces meet to signify their clashing personalities. A tiny cherry blossom and green heart float in the upper right. The artist’s signature [@magicmooshka] is on the top of the page

Two black and white doodles of sapphic Matchablossom. The upper left doodle shows Cherry munching very seriously on a plate of spaghetti that Joe has prepared. Her cheeks are round and full like a chipmunk’s. Joe stands off to the side, holding a cloche in one hand and looking slightly irritated at how Cherry devours the food. The lower right doodle shows Cherry and Joe skateboarding together with the word [ZOOM] above them.

some old yuzumakos i love #yuzumako #skipandloafer #skiptoloafer

chibi drawing of Makoto Kurume and Yuzuki Murashige from "Skip and Loafer" sitting against a bright pink background. Makoto braids Yuzuki's hair for her. Yuzuki sits on the ground with hands in her lap, blushing and smiling happily at Makoto. Two dark pink hearts pop up in the space between their heads

a drawing of Yuzumako from "Skip and Loafer" as the "I'm Not Like Other Girls" meme. In the first half are two side-by-side panels, the first labelled [Other Girls] and showing Yuzuki and the second labelled [Me] and showing Makoto. Yuzuki poses prettily, blushing and looking over at Makoto. Makoto, not noticing her, stares straight ahead dully with her arms crossed. In the second half, Yuzuki leans out of the frame of her [Other Girls] panel to grab Makoto's face and plant a kiss on her cheek. Makoto is pleasantly shocked, blushing furiously. Hearts pop up from both of their heads.

two black and white bust doodles of Makoto and Yuzuki from "Skip and Loafer". Makoto has a flustered expression, her cheeks rosy. A small heart crops up to the right of her face. Yuzuki, to the right and below her, smiles with sparkling eyes. A small heart crops up by her left shoulder.

Posting my damijonuary submission just in the nick of time 😅 @missiletoe.bsky.social

#Damijonuart #Damijon #DamianWayne #JonathanKent #DC #DCcomics

Fancomic of Superboy (Jon Kent) and Robin (Damian Wayne). Bursts of colors and light swirl around two splashing panels. The first panel shows John looking, starry-eyes, at Damian. The second panel shows the pair sitting on the edge of a roof, looking at the glittering skyline at sunset. The first panel is paired with a starburst containing the word “thoughts” and the second with a starburst containing the word “lights.”

Damian is shown in Jon’s x-ray POV, but a panel is placed over the upper half of Damian’s face that shows his bright green eyes. Below this, Jon can see Damian’s heart, beating steadily in a BMP-BMP-BMP rhythm. A starburst next to Damian’s eyes reads “colors”, a starburst by his beating heart reads “sounds.”

Jon is shown blushing fiercely, bursts of light popping around and inside his chest. Next to him are the words: “superpowers fail me now.”

Abolish ICE. A little journal comic from South Minneapolis.

#iceoutmpls #iceoutcomics #iceoutofmpls

Just before Christmas, I got a puppy.
Her name is Minerva, and we call her *Minnie.

I'm still learning how to understand her.

Me: Do you need to go outside? Do you need to go outside, little baby? Do you need to do a poo?
Do you need to do a widdle piddle?

Minnie: Arf!

*I just call her "little baby" most of the time.

I'm also realizing I can't turn off the baby talk now.
Nobody tells you about that.

I got so lucky with my first puppy.
Her wonderful foster parents had her completely house-trained by the time we adopted her, so taking her outside for potty time has been pretty easy. I've got the puppy poopy routine pretty much down, now.

Me, putting on my coat: Let's see... I got the little poopy bags, puppy treats for bribes, jacket, scarf, phone… I think that's everything… Oh yes! And my passport.

I had been carrying around my passport for a while, but I knew it didn't matter. This is wrong. Nobody is required to carry around their papers.

I became a US citizen when I was seven. Since I was born in a refugee camp, I was stateless.
The US is the only nation where I've ever held citizenship. It's the only passport I've ever had, and it still felt important. Protective.

I would hold it in my pocket like a talisman, like it might ward off ghosts or something. But I realized I was holding onto it basically out of superstition.
ICE will pick up anybody.

I know that.

So I tucked my passport away.

And I largely avoid leaving my house.

I live a few blocks just South of George Floyd Square. I was in the neighborhood for that, too.
And all the neighbors came together to protect each other. We're already organized.
We'll do our best to get through this.

Me, to my dog: I hope I can take you for a walk someday soon. Won't that be nice, little baby?

my cat with the characters she is named after.

her full government name is Optimus Yiro Prime, after the famous Autobot leader and my fave character from the one-shot webtoon "When the Day Comes"

rough digital painting of Optimus Prime cupping his hands together to hold a little calico cat close to his face. Though his battle mask is up, his eyes are squinted as if in a smile. There is a fond connection between him and the cat, Yiro.

digital drawing of Yiro from "When the Day Comes" scratching a delighted Yiro the Cat under her chin. Seowon stands next to them, tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear as she smiles down at Yiro (the human.)

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
