Save the over $15k we've raised with this book that will benefit CHIRLA (Immigrant Rights) & Lambda Legal (LGBTQIA+ Rights). All net proceeds after printing will be donated.

Horror Not Hate-- a horror comic and art anthology with a conscience. And cool rewards!

Thank you, always! x
My first solo collection is out THIS HALLOWEEN, ya know Friday! Snap it up, devour it! Read it by moonlight and candle flame with Snicker fingers and get chocolate on the pages. Pulp, camp, laughs, scares, and weird shit. All inside.
