Just finished Red Hood: The Hill by @smartinbrough.bsky.social & @sanfordgreene.bsky.social
What an amazing comic! Refreshing new story & phenomenal art. Loved the world building of The Hill in Gotham.
Hope to see a sequel one day because Issue #6 definitely had some open ended story threads.

IGNITION PRESS announces second wave of creators to stacked line-up; SDCC recap unveils covers sneak peek
Brand new comics firbrand label, IGNITION PRESS, debuted at last weekend's San Diego Comic-Con and they came in hard, with a bevvy of creator announcements, suitably renegade panels held away from the mainstream melee of the San Diego Convention Center and a pop-up location which became a nexus point for bold creators and intrigued readers alike.

So moving to see artist Amy Sherald's original portrait of Breonna Taylor on display at the @whitneymuseum. The piece was commissioned by @vanityfair.com for a special issue guest edited by writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, who invited me to illustrate two pieces. Both were brilliantly colored by @sotocolor.

I love going through my collection and seeing badasses I have been following for years - like @smartinbrough.bsky.social , one of the best out there - and the incredible work he did as an inker in things like Shadow Cabinet back in ‘94.
I did figure out who would lead it btw! 😛
