Livewire x Paprika

A lot of people forget she wasn't originally just "electricity lady" but energy itself. That Livewire is an identity formed by media perception.

#Art #DCcomics #Superman
The iconic Paprika by the mirrors image but with my design of Leslie Willis instead. In the foreground she's dressed as a punk girl in a leather jacket looking off to the side. In the mirror Leslie's Livewire persona (a supervillain with greyish blue skin) makes several different expressions. She looks tired, frustrated and angry.

When I said "this new book fights me at every stage of development" I thought by thumbnails that meant difficult panel layouts and dialogue rewording. Apparently, seeing this story visually made me realize there's some plot stuff that needs more fine tuning. This book never ceases to surprise me

Sketch dump of John Constantine's twin brother the Golden Boy ☀️

John's womb twin died in his universe, but in another universe, it's the other way around. And this other man is a savior.

#Art #DCcomics #JohnConstantine #Hellblazer #Artsky
A portrait of a man wearing a patterned robe, his long golden hair fills the canvas. Colored sketches of the Golden Boy. A variation of portraits and one full body sketch of him holding Astra Logue in one arm as his other arm bleeds from being cut off.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

I've been thinking on this for a while, and instead of a holiday season sale, Bonedust Press will instead dedicate 10% of all direct sales to the San Diego Food Bank.

Times are tough and since I have to do the marketing song and dance anyway, I'd like to accomplish a little good with it.

Shop small for the holidays, support independent publishing, and do some good!

From now until Dec. 31, we will donate 10% of every single direct sale from our site to local food banks.

Treat yourself to our debut title, The Traitor & The Wretch, or gift it to a friend!
www.bonedustpress.com/shop
A trope map image for The Traitor & The Wretch (cover art by Amy Phillips) written by Jasmine Walls and illustrated by Rowan MacColl. It reads: Minor villains dungeon-crawling their way to a happy ending. On the run from an entire kingdom that wants them both dead. This guy (the wretch) helped raise a Chaos God to bring about the end times (he's not coping well) This guy (the traitor) tried to kill the Prophesized Hero (it ended badly) Enemies-to-Lovers Mutated cave creatures! Undead horrors! Endless pitch black caves! Somehow, it's a romance!

Genuinely though. If we stop acting like we *have* to fall into gender essentialism in order to simplify the concept of transness to young readers, we'll come up with better, more creative trans stories that they don't have to spend their adulthood unlearning.

Whenever I read trans stories that are all "I realized I'm a boy because I like superheroes more than princesses" I'm disappointed at this message we're sending.

Liking superheroes isn't proof you're a guy. It's proof that you're a huge nerd.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!

Here's a comic essay we made last year about Lunar Boy and QPOC representation 🌈📚

(1/4)

#Art #Comics #OC #OCsky #Booksky #Artsky #TDOV
The cover of Lunar Boy. Indu sits on a pile of objects and looks out to the pink and blue sky. He's bordered by a giant moon Panel 1: Jes and Cin (identical twins with short hair) depicted cheering happily as they stand next to a cover of Lunar Boy. The essay reads: “Lunar Boy is going to be out in May and it feels unreal. I’ve said that a lot when working on this book. That it feels “unreal” to be bringing this story to existence. And I should explain why!” Panel 2: Jes walks through a display of movie posters and bookstands while holding a book. The essay continues: “When I see representations of queer people of color in the mainstream, it always felt like something was missing.” Panel 3: Cin being overcrowded by fantastical characters, a robot, a gorilla in a spacesuit, a cat princess, and a woman with a sword. The essay continues: “Especially in stories of happy queer escapism.” Panel 1: Continuing: “Their stories often revolve around their white queer friends,” A white woman points to herself as her other hand holds a Black woman’s hand. Who is off to the side. The white woman says “This story’s about ME.” While the Black woman says “I’m here too.” Panel 2: Continuing: “They’re stripped of cultural specificity” a white woman shares a meal with a dark skinned hijabi woman. The white woman has a burger while the hijabi woman holds chopsticks, ready to eat her noodles. Dialogue above them reads “Ugh, why can’t the character just HAPPEN to be Muslim?” “So stereotypical.” An arrow points to the right showing an edited version where the white woman is unchanged and still eats a burger, but now the hijabi woman doesn’t wear her hijab and is also eating a burger. The dialogue above them reads “much better!” “Finally, a universally relatable diverse story!” Panel 3: Continuing: “The intersection of their identities,” a venn diagram showing the intersections of religion, POC, queer, and diaspora. Panel 4: Continuing: “or the histories of their communities, would never be acknowledged.” A woman solemnly stands in front of a grave bearing a bouquet of flowers. On the grave is a small candle and cup with the trans flag poking out of it.

Listen closely. This moment in Toy Story 3 needs to be a gif exploited to express your attention being grabbed by something. I'm hoping the new Toy Story movie will get people to look back and finally turn this moment into a reaction meme
