A Jojo (and Dennis) Update

March 22nd, 2024 It’s been exactly one hot minute and the rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated; here’s my face to explain how I’ve been busy, plus all the details I can give about Jojo’s Time Machine, which is coming out next week (oh jeez). Don’t want to watch? Here’s some key moments:Continue reading “A Jojo (and Dennis) Update”

The Key

December 28th, 2023 A year ago this week, I announced — in celebration of a decade publishing books and comics, and twenty years of making music as The Next Step — that I would be focusing on a different Sleeping Kitty Productions project every month for all of 2023, taking you behind the scenes andContinue reading “The Key”

Best of 2023

December 17th, 2023 Lists are so stupid. I know it. Shut up. And I adore them so much. There is nothing that will stop my scrolling like a good (or bad) list. I love learning what people love; it’s always been a weird hobby of mine. With that being said, here’s a few lists fromContinue reading “Best of 2023”

In Defense of Marvel

November 10th, 2023 I’m sure you’ve already heard, but Marvel is done, big time. There’s nothing left. It’s all too woke, the studio is broke, none of the stories make sense anymore and they’re just putting out, like, the worst garbage ever made of all time, like, for reals. Weirdly, though, I watched the seasonContinue reading “In Defense of Marvel”

Theia: Heroes

September 22nd, 2023 There are certain parameters that people find themselves more comfortable sharing within, and I fit into many of those boxes. As a bartender, people are surprisingly open with me; as a person who is public about their sobriety and struggles with addiction, people are surprisingly open with me; as a writer, ohContinue reading “Theia: Heroes”

WHAT A TRIP, SEE YOU THIS Fall Tour 2023

SAT, SEPTEMBER 23rd – MINNESOTA COMIC EXCHANGE SHOW @ VALLEY CREEK MALL in WOODBURY! 🍂 First up: The Comic ShowsContinue reading “WHAT A TRIP, SEE YOU THIS Fall Tour 2023”

The Weirdos, Part VII: The Universe is Bigger Than God

August 30th, 2023 I didn’t finish college (obvs) and I don’t believe in God (sorry, fam), and The Weirdos is what it is because of it. I quit college three quarters in. I frequently tell people that making this graphic novel was my education; most art students have to do a final project, and it’sContinue reading “The Weirdos, Part VII: The Universe is Bigger Than God”

The Weirdos, Part VI: Black & White Issues, Blacklisting, and a Technicolor Graphic Novel

August 29th, 2023 The Weirdos is about being a part of something that gives you meaning, something that could save your life. Once I was solidly standing on sober feet, I wanted to be a member of the artistic community as soon as I possibly could. It’s the reason I decided to produce The WeirdosContinue reading “The Weirdos, Part VI: Black & White Issues, Blacklisting, and a Technicolor Graphic Novel”

The Weirdos, Part V: The Wait

August 28th, 2023 Das wasn’t supposed to be a Weirdo. The Wait actually started out as a comic book about the restaurant industry, after years of people telling me that I should write about the experience, which explains its title and setting. It was a separate thing altogether, until I realized that I had writtenContinue reading “The Weirdos, Part V: The Wait”
