Today is the birthday of writer & editor Len Wein (June 12, 1948-Sept. 10, 2017). He cocreated Swamp Thing, Wolverine, & most of the new X-Men when he helped revive the team in 1975, and wrote virtually every major hero at Marvel & DC at some point.

Happy solstice ❄️ 🎨 from Boris Groh

In the spirit of the holiday, I want to say how thankful I am that so many of our fans continue to support us. Creating an ongoing series is a privilege. I'm also thankful for the creator community. Here is a thread of a few of those I'm currently supporting. www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

Here at Sweet, we support our Yeti.

I just backed Paterfamilias on @kickstarter.com! "For fans of the films TAKEN and DR STRANGE, for shows like THE MAGICIANS, for comics like SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN." I edited this one a while ago, and I'm excited to see it being released! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid...

So, we have a horror Kickstarter coming up that is, quite literally, six years in the making: It’s called PATERFAMILIAS, and its a book that delves into the sheer terror of an abduction, but heightened with a sense of the unknown. www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid...
