Shadow season update.

It’s the most wonderful season of all, as shadows grow longer— here’s what I’ve been up to:

  • I’m wrapping up the last batch of these commissioned pieces, having a blast and kinda leveling up along the way. Above is my favorite: a Magik piece with Illyana as ruler of Limbo, reigning over the skulls of vanquished demonic captors, manipulators, and abusers. Three more to finish in this batch. I’ll open up a new round of commissions early next year via Athenaeum Comic Art— you can email Sean (athenaeumcomicart@gmail.com) to snag a spot for a custom piece, or to buy a page from one of my books. (Shoutout to everyone requesting X-Men characters for these pieces!)

  • I just finished a variant cover (below) for Jeff Lemire’s fantastic series, Minor Arcana— issue number and release date will be updated once it’s set! Look out for my taking on art duties for an issue or two sometime next year.

  • I’m writing and drawing a single-issue story in The Twilight Zone #4, coming early next year from IDW— about to jump into lettering and inking this week. More to share soon! What a thrill to make an official Twilight Zone story—it’s also one of the most challenging creative exercises of my life.

  • I just finished an 8-page story with Nobel Prize-winning climate scientist Dr. David Easterling for Islands In The Sky, a star-studded comics anthology of collaborations with survivors of Hurricane Helene, as the inaugural release from the Appalachia Comics Project. You can pre-order a copy here.

  • About to do the final edits, cover, and packaging for my next graphic novel, Diana, which will be out next fall— I’ll have plenty to share about this book as soon as we officially announce it early in 2026.

I’m sure there’s more, but considering (waves generally at the terror, desperate fascism, and likely social collapse which will leave a huge number of people utterly unprepared, despite a decade’s worth of clear warnings from experts, journalists, activists, and academics), this will do for now. I hope everyone’s maintaining all right, showing up in real space with their neighbors to speak up and look out for each other, and summoning all the courage and perseverence we’ve got.

Love to humanity. Death to fascism.
