We got interviewed for Punknews. I put out punk records for 10 years and never got interviewed by Punknews. I put one issue of a comic with a rapper and I get interviewed. Lesson- always be confusing.

Preview: RZA & Ghostface Killah Present TWELVE... →
The lovely gentlemen collectively known as iFanboy were awesome enough to host a preview of our book Twelve Reasons To Die. If you were on the fence you can go read some of it on their always awesome site. They also said “Add it to your pull list!” about our book. This is extra nice considering when we got hired on the book their advice was “Don’t fuck up.” Thanks...

Two Reasons To Read Twelve Reasons To Die -... →
“The components of the story, even after just one issue, are already lining up in my head as I try to figure out whats going to happen next. It’s an ingenious way of telling a tale, hopping around in time while slowly dropping hints and haunts of whats to come or whats come before. This is a dark violent comic with artists who clearly have a tight grasp on exactly what that means.”-...

Anonymous asked: After you read the blog from Comixology explaining they fucked up rather than we're censored (if anything, Comixology censored it) will you retract statements about Saga #12 you made on Twitter?

OUR BOOK IS ON JIMMY FALLON TONIGHT!
Everyone tune in to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon tonight to see him hold up my comic for 3 seconds and say it’s “cool” or something. I couldn’t quite hear him. Also watch Ghostface, Adrian Younge, and The Roots kill it.
Anonymous asked: I am 25 and rediscovered my love for comic books in the last couple of years. Its the creative medium that resonates with me most. I'd like to create a book of my own as a personal goal. Should I enrol in a illustration course or work with what I have?

Our very close friend and sometimes partner in comic crime, Frank Barbiere, has a new comic on store shelves Wednesday called FIVE GHOSTS. Frank is a really good guy who has worked tirelessly for years to get to this point and the end result is a truly great book. Multiple years of his work and thousands of his dollars are worth your 10 minutes and $3.50. Go to your local comic shop and buy it or...

I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore.
Dear Convention whose name will be spared,
Refusal of professional colorists to be listed as guests at your convention is extremely ignorant.
