I am thankful for all the amazing indie project I've had the chance to letter. Like Young Men in Love v1, winner of a GLAAD Media Award in 2022. Here's four stacks from some of the lovely short stories it carries.

Today's stacks from Alan Scott: Green Lantern #2 & #3 (probably one of my favorite single issues I've ever lettered). By T. Sheridan, C. Tormey & M. Herms.
Check out the density of these pages! I feel like the stacks are akin to sports heat maps, in showing what parts of a page are more used.

Stacks for a very cool fantasy-scifi book I lettered YEARS ago: Twin Worlds. By R. Al-ashqar, J. Morales & B. Magnaye.
One of those books you can't believe don't get more praise!

It's wicked Wednesday, so here are the stacks for two horrifically spicy stories I lettered for the Boulet Brothers' curated Halloween issue of Heavy Metal a couple of years ago!
Two of my all-time fave drag queens wrote these stories: Ivye Oddly & Katya! <3

In Argentina we do Pride during November, which started as a way to protect from our southern-hemisphere-July-cold some of the first marchers that were HIV+ back in the 90s.
Honoring that, here are some DC Pride lettering stacks for you! 🏳️🌈

Stacks of the most fun book you maybe never heard about: Taara of the Stars! Created entirely by talented Indian creators (plus an Argie myself), I would've LOVED this book as a kid. It has SO MANY fun gags per page that you keep finding new stuff each time you reread.

Letterick stacks of today…Baby Barbarian and the Player's Throne! It's a 28-page adventure romper which I divided into two parts! Notice how the 1st one is heavier in text, while the second is all-out action full of SFXs!
BTW, the 3rd part of that book is coming > www.backerkit.com/c/projects/w...

In honor of #3 out today, I prepared some lettering stacks of Bullet's first installments! These are images created by placing only the lettering elements of the pages.
They're a dynamic way to show-off cool lettering bits, hope you like them!

For today's stacks I'm bringing you the first installment of BULLET (each stack is 20pg of that book), IMO the most fun indie speedster book published ATM. Issue #3 is out today--you can check it at @altruistcomics.bsky.social
This is A-level stuff both story and artwise--hopefully lettering too!

As part of previous Baby Barbarian campaign, its writer @willgosline.bsky.social & Ryan Y created and designed a proof-of-concept for a metroidvania-style video game!
The idea was that the game would show the action that happened in the gutters.
Also, my lettering is featured...how cool is that?!

Let's start with the first two stories I lettered for DC! Both were for DC Pride 2022, one for Batwoman and the other for Green Lantern Jo Mullein (who I'm also lettering currently at Absolute Green Lantern!).
They're a few pages each, so you can't see much clutter as you would in a 20+ pages book.
