HIGH GREY (written by @robertsburton.bsky.social, illo'd by @ckinney.bsky.social, lettered by @rampantpixie.bsky.social) is an excellent comic about a cat and his ways. If you missed it on Kickstarter, good news! There will be copies at Thought Bubble in November! @mindstaincomics.bsky.social

But really nothing says "festive cheer" like a bloody erotic supernatural queer revenge romance novelette with an actual die-cut cover you can do whatever with. That's GORYHOLE!

24 hours left on the kickstarter. In typical Mindstain weirdness this comic has backgrounds done with green tea burn art, is accompanied by a 4000 word essay about the philosophy of cattishness and features our backer's cats. Support indie comics and back High Grey kck.st/49r8nN0
