Hi! I’m Adam, high school special education teacher & self-published author of “You Are Your Own Superhero,” a children’s book about kids’ strength in a challenging world, & “Fulcrum,” about the ongoing adventures of a boy through the past to save the future. Check out www.millsocracy.com for more!
The cover of “You Are Your Own Superhero” which features a watercolor illustration of a boy dressed as a superhero standing heroically on a hilltop. He looks happy! The cover of Fulcrum, Issue 1. It is an illustration showing a young boy dangling by hand from a ledge. His other hand is holding a tablet with a blank screen. Below him, six Paleolithic hunters have gathered and are waving their arms and stone weapons at him angrily and threateningly. The boy looks terrified.

“Of the Empire” by Mary Oliver. Prescient.
A picture of the text, “Of the Empire” by Mary Oliver. It reads, “We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.”

Sadly, it feels like this will be every day for the next four years.
Two panels from a Hellboy comic book in which one character states that “It’s an endless parade of horrors, isn’t it?” Hellboy responds, “Pretty much.”

Goals for 2025-
Personal: Keep my focus on the things I can impact and let others pass. Drop tension from my shoulders.
Creative: Release at least one new creative work. Preferably two.
Professional: Finish planning and implement a conference supporting comics and games in education.

We will never let Trump and MAGA rewrite the truth about what happened on January 6, 2021. We've put together a mini-documentary that goes through not only what happened on the 6th, but before and in the aftermath of that infamous day. Watch and share 'A Coup In Plain Sight':
Meidas Won’t Let Trump and MAGA Rewrite January 6!
Four years ago, Donald Trump incited a violent insurrection at the United States Capitol.

Writing is an act of rebellion.
Writing is an act of creation.
Writing is an act of salvation.
Writing is an act of exploration.
Writing is an act of emotion.
Writing is an act of confession.
Writing is an act of speculation.
Writing is an act of reflection.
Keep writing.

The long-awaited 4th HC collection of LAZARUS, collecting all of Lazarus: Risen and issues 27 & 28 of the original series, is out this May. Over 400 pages of comic storytelling and extras! Cover art by Michael Lark, book design by @mercuryeric.bsky.social! From @imagecomics.bsky.social!
Forever Carlyle stands defiantly in the FG, her hair blown about as if in an explosion, while behind her fragments of a DNA strand are blown to pieces. The title, Lazarus, is at the top of the page, in iridescent purple shifting to blue-green. The color reflects on Forever as she stands, one hand in a fist, the other holding her sword. She does not look like someone to fuck with right now.

I originally read this as “Four companions” and thought “Oh shit! The hobbits are real and are taking over the potato game!”

Four companies who together control 95% of the frozen potato market, conspired to increase the price of every single French fry and tater tots you ate since 2021 -- and too many of you named Biden for it.

If you’re looking for a free way to support an author, did you know you can ask your library to stock a book you want to read that they don’t have yet? And usually it’s a very basic online form? Google your library name plus the words “request a title” or “suggest a title” to find yours.
