As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Last 2 interviews at #SPX with @jdebbiel.bsky.social & @nicolegoux.bsky.social Great show overall and did 10 interviews total for my podcast #ComicNewsInsider

Last day of SPX!

Federal immigration agents were seemingly forced to retreat from a roofing job site in Rochester, NY, after being confronted by more than 100 protesters The workers stayed on the roof and agents drove away in a Border Patrol SUV on four flat tires, which had been slashed

Come hang this weekend!

Why? Well, for starters, 300 ICE agents have been moved to Chicago, leaving only about 300 in LA County which is about what we had before Trump took office. Why are they leaving? Because LA made their jobs TOO FUCKING HARD. LA Organized. LA sat on corners outside Home Depots with radios. 5/

1 hour to go!

We're interviewing @nicolegoux.bsky.social on September 4th. Comment on this post with your drawing prompts and questions. Nicole is an illustrator and cartoonist whose work can be seen in her comic Pet Peeves, Forest Hills Bootleg Society, and most recently in This Place Kills Me.

Due to popular demand, we are setting up a heavily discounted fulfillment service for artists outside the US that are scrambling after the recent tariff / customs policy put in place for shipments to the USA.

A friendly reminder that This Place Kills Me is now available everywhere and id love it if you read it!!

Thanks Ryan!

Today!!

@davidharper.bsky.social loving listening to @nicolegoux.bsky.social @offpanel while on the drawing board — it’s most of what my opinion & my experiences have been — so on point about freelancing and making comics generally! Happy to find a new book & artists to follow :)

On Starlit Shores - available for preorder from wherever you buy books ✨

Just finished This Place Kills Me — Mariko Tamaki & @nicolegoux.bsky.social deliver a haunting murder mystery that’s a surreal trip through grief, teen angst, and small-town rot. Gorgeous, moody art that lingers, and a story that cuts deep. I couldn’t put it down! #Comics #GraphicNovel #ComicSky

Thank you KIRKUS Reviews

Thank you!!

Today is the day! This Place Kills me is now available everywhere. Thank you @marikotamaki for being an incredible collaborator, @sgtgreenbomb for all the editing support and @abramsbooks for believing in our book!

Thank you for picking it up! Hopefully it’ll be an exception to your ya rule

Meet Katie Blair! Aspiring actress. Possible witness. Might have the answers Abby needs.

Had a great talk with Jason about This Place Kills Me which comes out TOMORROW!

As always I had a great time talking to @sktchd.bsky.social about comics!

This Place Kills Me is out TOMORROW!!! Come see us talk about it at @vromansbookstore at 6pm!!

Lately my advice for meeting other creatives has been “show up”. Go meet locals, go to cons, talk with people, say hi, say hi twice.

Meet Jessica Shank! Wilberton’s aspiring director. In charge of the theater group and...everything else.

Meet Claire Offer! Wilberton’s top reporter and theater superfan. Thinks roommate Abby might be onto something.

Wilberton's star performer. Last seen as Juliet in Romeo & Juliet. Last seen alive by Abby.

Meet Abby Kita! The Star of This Place Kills me. Abby is the new student at Wilberton who doesn’t fit in. Has weird glasses. Hears everything. Won’t let things go.

This is why it's so important to work on projects that you are passionate about, especially starting out. You're not going to be making a living, so you might as well be not making a living doing something you love that will shape the direction of your career instead of grasping at crummy gigs.

Come to our release party on Tuesday at Vroman’s Pasadena!!

A great review from @comicsbeat for This Place Kills Me, out next week!! Come see @marikotamaki and I talk with @gingerhazing at Vroman’s in Pasadena on Tuesday at 6pm.
