Guess who remembered his password! And I’m back with news… my new kickstarter for PORTER LOVES CLEO is live!!
It’s an adventure comic all about love, loss and how we say goodbye. It takes all the lessons I’ve learnt about grief and happiness.
This is my dream comic I’ve always wanted to share

Hello #Comics Bluesky!
I am hoping you can help me out by completing a survey on the State of Comics Anthologies.
It addresses Backers, Contributors, Editors and Publishers. If you're at least one of those four people, can you spare a few minutes?
