This is the best kind of review you can ask for!

@tamrabonvillain.bsky.social I'm an Emmy-winning video game and comic book writer, and a fan of your work! I'd love to chat with you about a potential collab. Would you be so kind as to DM me? : )

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

Here's a little video I made at Midnight on the last night, staying up late to watch the final seconds of my first Kickstarter campaign click over to zero. I’m still processing it all, but mostly just feeling grateful. Next up: production begins. Then it's time to ramp up Issue 2 for January!

Twelve more hours!! ⏳ Okay, I gotta say it once: Things are getting really time sensitive now! 😝 "Time Sensitive" #1 closes it's doors at midnight (EST) tonight! But it's not too late to grab one of these three amazing variant covers. Get yours before Midnight (EST) 👉 tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

This is the LAST DAY to grab your deluxe hardcover edition of TIME SENSITIVE on Kickstarter, you guys!

It’s taken six years to start feeling like I belong here in my little upstate town. This little article made it feel like home. 🏡

From crossing milestones to seeing this community grow, this campaign has been one of the most intense, inspiring creative experiences of my career. If you’ve been following along but haven’t jumped in yet, this is the moment. Every backer helps bring the full six-issue series closer to reality.

$30K REACHED! 🚀 WOWWW!!! Designer Jeff Powell (Hawkeye, Marvel, Image, IDW) is officially onboard "Time Sensitive" #1! This is a huge level-up for the book. Thanks to everyone who got us here. ONLY 3 Days left of our campaign on Kickstarter! Come join us. tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

For the final week of "Time Sensitive" on Kickstarter — we're giving away a FREE Variant Cover with all Bundles!! To say thank you for all the support, I’ve added a brand-new variant cover by Ashraf Omar (Dune, Spider-Verse, The Last of Us). —PLUS a new $75 Softcover Bundle. tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

Love this behind-the-scenes video of Jorge's process as an artist! Lovely animation tying it all together.

New interview is live! 🎙️ I joined Comic Book Club Live for a mid-Kickstarter check-in on my new comic Time Sensitive. Where we’re at, what’s next in these last 10 days — and what it’s really like to run a campaign. comicbookclublive.com/2025/09/29/j...

I'm excited to share something REALLY SPECIAL from the "Time Sensitive" Kickstarter — the reveal of Jorge Coelho’s EXCLUSIVE bookplate art. The reveal video is live — take a look, and if you’ve been thinking about upgrading to hardcover, THIS might be the moment.

Next week: Amsterdam! 🇳🇱 Oct 2 — Speaking at Emerce Eday on designing immersive narratives for radical agency + human connection. Oct 3 — Leading a masterclass for the Dutch govt’s immersive design program. Comic books + immersive stories = a pretty damn busy week 🚀

Massive career milestone today: our first REVIEW for "Time Sensitive" just dropped at The Beat — and it’s glowing. 🥹 “A rapid-fire sci-fi mystery comic of the highest order… kinetic artwork, great characters, and pacing that can’t be over-praised for how well it draws readers through the book.”

$27.5K stretch goal = unlocked! 🚀 Backers get a behind-the-scenes look at Issue #2 as we make it. Next stop: $30K → pro book design from Jeff Powell (Hawkeye, Marvel, Image, IDW). Let’s hit it by the weekend… big $35K reveal coming. 👀 👉 tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

Had a blast on Meanwhile… At the Podcast! Grateful for such a thoughtful conversation. If you’re curious about the creative process, our Kickstarter journey so far, or just love hearing shop talk about storytelling across mediums, you'll enjoy giving it a listen KICKSTARTER: tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

You guys!!!! TIME SENSITIVE made the front page of Kickstarter today!!! We're f***ing blowing up! ...wow. ☺️ CHECK IT OUT: tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

Guys, I'm SO excited about bringing on Jeff Powell as book designer on "Time Sensitive." You probably know his work from the Fraction & Aja "Hawkeye" book! But it only happens if we hit our $30k stretch goal on Kickstarter. — Can you help us get there? Spread the word, buy the book. Thank you!

🚨 We’ve reached $25K! 🚨 Next stretch goal: $27,500. At that milestone, all backers unlock a behind-the-scenes preview of the first 9 pages of Time Sensitive #2. Script → layouts → inks → colors!! Help us get there 👉 tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

As someone who’s spent most of my career in games — from Assassin’s Creed II to Destiny to Outriders — this crossover into comics has been both terrifying and exhilarating. To see IGN cover Time Sensitive as its own piece of “elevated sci-fi” means the world.

Love seeing this process video taking us behind-the-scenes on the making of TIME SENSITIVE #1. Exclusive Original Art and Comic pages by Jorge Coelho is available on our Kickstarter right now — and going fast! Don't miss out. LINK: tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

I can’t stop smiling 🥹💙 I am blown away by the love and support pouring in from this community! THANK YOU! Now the FUN part begins: every pledge from here on out helps us dream bigger — unlocking stretch goals, making the book even better, and sharing it with more readers. tinyurl.com/5n7bnb6y

Incredible!! Thank you to everyone who showed up right at the beginning — your support means the world. 💙 - Joshua

Comic Book Writers: if you’ve ever worried about giving tough visual feedback to an artist you admire… this story’s for you.

This week in surreal life updates: the guy who wrote Blade and Dark Knight just said very nice things about my comic. Not saying I peaked today — but it’s gonna be hard to top this. 😅

This is Tabitha — the very first stranger to pick up my comic TIME SENSITIVE at my very first comic con table ever, at BICS last weekend. Not a friend. Not family. A real, live member of the comic-reading public. And she didn’t just flip through it politely... 1/4

SORRY. Sorry. Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

Fifteen years. That’s how long I’ve been waiting to tell this story. And now, the first series from Strange Land Comics is finally here. Introducing TIME SENSITIVE!

A year ago, I was struggling to figure out how to even start making a comic. Today, Jorge Coelho is holding the finished inks for our entire first issue! It’s surreal, and it feels like a moment worth celebrating. This story has lived in my head for so long, and now? It’s real. 1/5

I’m sorry, but my comic Chris Pratt Makes One Billion Dollars Fighting Aliens or Robots or Alien Robots I Don’t Care Which Give Me Money is a very sincere work of art

Rock climbing keeps teaching me lessons. First attempt: Hesitated. Overthought. Fell. Second attempt: Committed. Made it easily. So much of life is the same. It's not that we can’t do something but that we think we can’t. Sometimes the hardest part isn’t the move, it’s believing you can make it.

Hey guys - We're looking for an Intern at Strange Land Comics. Know any young creative who might be interested? Approx. 10 hours of work per work. A great opportunity to get to know the inner workings of an indie comic book studio. - Joshua

Guess who’s speaking at SXSW 2025? 👾🎉 On March 10, I’ll be in Austin talking about “Building Responsive XR: Immersive Theater Meets Gaming!” I'll share tools from games + immersive that will shape the future of XR. 🚀 #SXSW #XR #Gaming #Immersive #storyliving schedule.sxsw.com/2025/events/...

Check this panel out! Jorge Coelho’s art is so good it makes me feel like I’m just here to staple the pages together! The guy takes a holiday break, comes back, and casually drops a masterpiece. Meanwhile, I’m double-checking my to-do list to make sure I actually did something today! lol

Check out #5 on the "Best Comics of 2024" list from Strange Land Comics. And yes, at the rate we're posting these, we should finish around 2026. 😝

Merry Christmas from Albuquerque!
