a world without trans people has never existed and never will
a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.

Only Yesterday x Bloom + Cherry Magic

When hints at a high school reunion suggest that her track teammate harbored used to like her, introverted Sera takes a chance to explore a connection she never knew existed that may rewrite everything she believed about herself.

The sheer number of (amazing, tbh) bummer/intense stories out there makes me want to make the most saccharine fluff possible. It’s a conditions I have, it’s chronic.

Honestly this is a big thing inspiring me to work on graphic novels, because it feels more normal for teens and adults to read more slice of life, romance, etc stories. It’s really a win.

The rise in popularity of manga in the US is a net positive, because it normalizes and creates more demand for comics made for teens/adults outside the superhero genre.

Whatever gets people reading any comics at all—regardless of type, format or style—is good actually!

with peace and love, I'm pretty deeply invested in American comics and Japanese comics both, and I'm not sure that pitting them against each other has ever been the answer. I'm still developing a strong take, but it feels like asking if Cinnamon Toast Crunch is beating cheeseburgers in the polls.

It's my birthday so I would appreciate some shares 🥰

I'm Llewellyn and I make a queer Thriller/Romance comic "Across Your Shattered Sky" about obsession, possession & falling in love. I'll share some of my favorite panels in the comments!

Where to read my comic + my shops~ linktr.ee/LlewellynAYSS
Comic cover art depicting a disembodied head gazing blankly ahead while glass hands pull ink from it. There is a chaotic colorful swirled backdrop with eyes gazing at the head. The title reads "Across Your Shattered Sky. Art & story by @llewellynayss Digital art of two men in deep purple shadows. One man (right) whispers a dark glowing miasma into the ear of the other man (left) as he gently reaches towards his chin. Digital art of a young man in a frilled purple blouse holding up a glass piece taken from his cracking head. The background is sketchy with X's and scribble eyes. There is a signature in the bottom right corner. Digital art featuring two men embracing, with one of them pulling strings attached to the other as if he were a marionette. They both wear various shades of red and pinks with flowing fabrics.
