But of COURSE Trump's tariffs will clobber the comics biz.

Pretty much all GNs and Collections are printed in China, and have been for many years. US printers moved their factories over there. There are few presses left on US soil.

Huge backlogs, big price spike on books.

We're screwed.

Gina Gagliano talked to a host of comics publishers to get a sense of what the potential effects of increased tariffs from the new Trump administration could be.

#Missouri is ranked dead last when it comes to how much money it spends per person on public health. I’m not gonna hold my breath for our Republican lawmakers to do anything about it.

I did this closer to 10 years ago and it died in a basement flood before I could finish it. Still like it though

Someone left this on my desk like 6 or 7 years ago. Still hilarious

Good advice.
be less afraid to create clumsy comics. awkward tangents. amateur lettering. weird sequentials and pacing. You Can Just Make it. you dont need to be trapped in a cycle of perfectionism and imposter syndrome when you could have a finished work instead. print that thing out and staple it!!!
