TWILIGHT ZONE original pages now for sale.

Thanks to everyone for their positive response to my recent issue of The Twilight Zone— it means a lot to me! If anyone’s interested in signed copies directly from me, just order here.

Several pages (including the cover) sold at OAX in late February, but all remaining pages are now up for sale via Athenaeum Comic Art, as well as pages from Fall Through, Come Again, March, Lies My Teacher Told Me, Save It For Later, and more.

Thank you for your support— original artwork sales & commissioned pieces are increasingly central to my being able to make a living doing comics, and I certainly couldn’t do any of this without the faith and support of people who are moved by my work. You are appreciated!

Shop updated w/ out-of-print and new books!

I just updated my shop with the very last copies of several titles which have recently gone out-of-print: Swallow Me Whole, Any Empire, and You Don’t Say. I also have some copies of a boxed set featuring all three of these books at a lower price than buying them all individually— and as a bonus, the Omnibox cover features the first published appearance of my main characters from Fall Through and Diana!

I also added the brand new, single-volume March omnibus softcover. All of these are signed & sketched, mailed directly from me, with a very limited stock on the older titles, so don’t sleep on em!

Proxy bidding now open for my John Lewis/Kitty Pryde/Nightcrawler piece.

I’ll be selling original artwork at OAX in Orlando on February 20-22 at table A39, with more of my originals available nearby at Athenaeum Comic Art’s booth— and on Saturday evening, the below piece featuring my late, great friend and hero John Lewis flanked by Kitty Pryde and Nightcrawler will be auctioned.

If you’re interested but aren’t attending the show, proxy bidding is open now.

New this week: 'The Twilight Zone' #4 and 'March' omnibus

Two books out this week— one old and one new:

Out today in bookstores & online, tomorrow in comics shops: an economically-priced single-volume March omnibus. While there’s nothing new in here content-wise, this omnibus is a great option for schools & libraries at the high school & college level, and for community reading programs & book clubs, as well as just being handy on the bookshelf.

Out tomorrow in comics shops: The Twilight Zone #4, written and drawn by me! I’m really happy with how this turned out, and there are limited variant covers by the amazing Nicole Goux and Francesco Francavilla.

If you’re in the Bloomington area, I’ll be doing a book-release signing this Saturday, Feb. 7th at Vintage Phoenix Comics (114 E. 6th) from 2-4pm. See you there!

More announcements (including my forthcoming graphic novel!) coming soon.

John Lewis. Kitty Pryde. Nightcrawler.

Here’s my finished John Lewis/X-Men mashup piece! He’s paired with Kitty Pryde and Nightcrawler as moral cores of the team (and two of my top five), as well as people of faith. This piece will be auctioned next month at OAX (Original Art Expo) in Orlando, thanks to the folks at Comic Art Fans.

If original art is your thing, I hope to see you there!

Author talk in Pittsburgh on the 29th

I’ll be in Pittsburgh on Monday, September 29th to discuss my work at the Mt. Lebanon Public Library (16 Castle Shannon Blvd.) at 7pm, with a signing to follow.

Please spread the word— I hope to see you there!

"Imprinted: Illustrating Race" exhibition at Delaware Art Museum

I have five pieces of original artwork from the March trilogy on display as a part of the Norman Rockwell Museum’s “Imprinted: Illustrating Race” exhibition at the Delaware Art Museum (2301 Kentmere Parkway, Wilmington DE 19806) from October 18th, 2025 to March 1st, 2026.

The museum is open Wednesdays through Sundays from 10am-4pm.

My pieces will be alongside work by Norman Rockwell, Thomas Nast, Jerry Pinkney and Brian Pinkney, Arthur Burdette Frost, Romare Bearden, Emory Douglas, Howard Pyle, Loveis Wise, Rudy Gutierrez, Robyn Philips Pendleton, Zetta Elliot, and more.

After the exhibit closes at Delaware Art Museum, it is scheduled to move to the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, TN. More info on that as it’s confirmed!

60 years since Bloody Sunday.

Today marks the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday— a pivotal point in the Selma movment for Black Americans’ freedom rights, directly resulting in the necessary pressure for passage of the Voting Rights Act, crippled by the Republican-led Supreme Court in 2013. There’s a straight line from that decision to our fascist takeover today.

I’d like to highlight that the March 7, 1965 protest was in direct response to the police murder of 26-year-old Army veteran Jimmie Lee Jackson, who was hunted and killed during a peaceful protest in Marion, Alabama two weeks prior. Malcolm X was assassinated three days later.

At Jackson’s funeral, the idea emerged to march from Selma to Montgomery to place Jimmie Lee Jackson’s body at the steps of the state capitol.

Another point I’d like to highlight: dozens of racist state troopers who beat peaceful protestors on Bloody Sunday were accompanied by dozens more deputized white supremacist civilians— an actual fascist body of thugs— and the American Nazi Party had been present multiple times in Selma to counter-protest voting rights actions there.

Do you see? Fascism is what we’ve been fighting against for over a hundred years in the US. Stay in the fight and SHOW UP to salvage what we have left. A future self-determined, still in pursuit of multiracial democracy.

(All artwork is from our National Book Award & Eisner Award winning work March: Book Three— written by John Lewis & Andrew Aydin, drawn and lettered by me. Learn more here, and order signed copies directly from me here if you’re interested. Thanks for standing up for our work, keeping it in classrooms and libraries, and contributing to its survival.)

New original artwork available for sale.

I’ve got a new batch of original artwork available at Athenaeum Comic Art— pages from March, Lies My Teacher Told Me, Fall Through, Black Hammer, Scholastic, the Wicked Witch of the West, and more.

Thanks for your support and your wise investment in art!

New interview video up w/ Athenaeum Comic Art

Remembering John Lewis, 3 years later.

Today marks 3 years since we lost the big boss, John Lewis— freedom fighter and friend, collaborator and hero. I’ve been thinking about the hundreds of times we parted ways with a hug, taking for granted that the team would reconvene the next weekend or whenever.

He was such a good sport with all the adventures March took us on— so generous, and such a true believer in what we and Andrew built together with these books, and their potential to incite an intergenerational awakening.

Let’s keep building the fire.

If you’re so inclined, here’s a piece Andrew Aydin and I wrote about the urgency of carrying on John Lewis’s legacy, published by CNN after his passing.

A2CAF event added: panel w/ Thien Pham & Raina Telgemeier!

I’ll be discussing my nonfiction, historical & memoir work on this “Comics Out Of Life: Conversations With Our Past” panel, alongside Thien Pham and moderator Raina Telgemeier— as a part of A2CAF in Ann Arbor, Michigan!

The panel will be on June 9th at 2pm, at the Koessler Room, Michigan League (911 N. University). Check here for more details, and here for more info on A2CAF, where I’ll be tabling all weekend.

MARCH added to Jersey City school curriculum!

In New Jersey news: what an honor to have March included in Kamala Khan’s hometown curriculum (alongside Nikki Giovanni, Nikole Hannah-Jones, and the Spider-Verse books!) as proof of concept that young people are not afraid to learn accurate history and how to apply its lessons today.

We’ve been saying this for years now: memory laws, “discomfort” laws, and book-ban campaigns seek to exploit the emotions and weaknesses of many white parents who don’t want to answer their kids’ questions, or nurture their curiosity. (Here’s my Washington Post op-ed comic with Andrew Aydin from 2022 about all of this in the context of March and specific cookie-cutter book-ban legislative language.)

But young people want to learn and question— so let’s continue to help them grow. This is the 10-year anniversary of the release of March: Book One— let’s continue to honor the legacies of the civil rights movement, and the late, great freedom fighter John Lewis by keeping this history alive and available.

Fellow pro-democracy, antifascist white people: don’t sit this out.

April roundup: podcast interview & cartooning workshop video

It’s been a few weeks, so here’s a quick roundup of recent stuff while I keep my head down to finish drawing Lies My Teacher Told Me by the end of the year— both that book AND Fall Through will be released in 2024!

• Here’s a recently-published interview I did last year with the thoughtful Chauncey Devega about my work (specifically Save It For Later, “About Face”, and the March trilogy) and how it intersects with our world.

• March was recently included on this great list of “22 of the Best Graphic Novels of All Time” over at Book Riot!

• Here’s a video recording of a recent class I hosted at Sequential Artists Workshop— the theme is “Crossing Senses: Conveying Sound, Smell, Taste, Touch, and the Spidey-Sense Visually.”

Thanks for checking in!

10 years since finishing MARCH: BOOK ONE.

10 years ago this weekend, I had just finished drawing March: Book One and joined my collaborators John Lewis & Andrew Aydin on a pilgrimage to sites of the civil rights struggle in Birmingham, Montgomery, and Selma, Alabama.

It’s increasingly hard to wrap my head around that weekend’s sincerity and sense of reckoning, in the knowledge that the last decade’s rise of mainstreamed fascism and white supremacy— including concrete work to dismantle the entirety of our society’s gains from the civil rights movement onward, as well as consolidated efforts to suppress the history and context of the civil rights movement itself. That includes coordinated intimidation campaigns and legislative attempts to ban and suppress our own work on March, including schools in John Lewis’s own congressional district. (I’ve written about all of this additionally at CNN, the Washington Post, and the Nib.)

Other specific moments, like then-Montgomery chief of police symbolically removing & giving his badge to John Lewis (specifically identifying the white supremacist police forces preceding him as “doing the work of evil”), and then being fired for it shortly afterward— a decade later, this kind of gesture is unthinkable as police have far beyond passed a point of no return.

I’m remembering that powerful weekend through the lens of still being fairly early in our work on the March trilogy, but I’m mostly struck with sadness and anger at a majority of white American adults’ refusal to question, learn, grow, and fight back against the rapidly-consolidating monster of fascism today. Fascism will come for them, too, and you, too— unless we stop it.

Our institutions absolutely will not save us. Only we will save us, strangers as neighbors. All power to the people— and especially all power to the young people.

Artwork on exhibit at Boston University through March 24th

I have some original artwork from March and Save It For Later currently on display at Boston University’s Stone Gallery (855 Commonwealth Ave, Boston, MA 02215) through March 24th as a part of the “Comics Is A Medium, Not A Genre” exhibit curated by Joel Christian Gill. If you’re in New England, go check it out— thanks!

MARCH used for public defender's swearing-in!

Absolutely mind-blowing: Minneapolis county attorney Mary Moriarty was sworn in yesterday with her hand on a copy of March! I know John Lewis would be beside himself, beaming with the spirit of history in effect.

Original artwork for sale!

If you’re interested in original artwork, I have a few dozen pages for sale via Atheneum Comic Art— this includes pages from most of my pre-2020 books. Listings are being updated currently, and there should be a good sampling of Sweet Tooth and Black Hammer pages added in the next few days as well! All pages are signed and dated by the year in which they were drawn.

(To prevent undue shock, please be aware that my March pages are considerably more expensive than my other work. This has always been the case whenever they’ve been available for sale, and I’m not in a hurry to part with them. Thanks for understanding.)
