Late in the year contributor's copies of these two fine anthologies. These two horror short stories, the Gourmand go graphic novella, and my non fiction piece for the Jewish Independent are the entirety of my published output for this year.

I did some sketches. I had professional artists draw the book--this was just me horsing around on a Sunday night.

Some kind words from Dillon Naylor. We are in the final days of this now and awfully close to our first stretch goal.
Thanks to everyone who has backed, shared, or supported us so far.

The face-punching conclusion of my Phantom story, "The Pinstripe Wizards", in Frew #1957. Art once again by the magnificent Kay, another debut Phantom creator.

Hey, you sickos. We are into the final week of my cannibal space opera graphic novel campaign now and closing in on that stretch goal: additional art by Harold Purnell and Dean Rankine. Probably 5 more backers will get us over the line.
Cheers!

Let's see how long it takes to hit 100. Kickstarter dead zone blues. @killeroo.bsky.social

My cannibal space opera graphic novel is fully funded on Kickstarter and now it's stretch goal time! If we hit $5k I'll commission new pinup pages by co-creator Harry Purnell and by Dean Rankine, known for The Simpsons & I Hate Fairyland. You'll like this one!

Kickstarter has been going well. We are 85% funded already and I'm feeling pretty good about it already.
Every link or share vastly appreciated. I'd much talk about it here than on the other platforms.

My first superhero comic, roughly 20 years after I made my photocopied minicomic zine. The Phantom #1956, which I think is in stores today. Part 1 of my story The Pinstripe Wizards, with art by the artist known only as Kay.
(Except when he's called Boris Kay, or sometimes Kay Boris).
