(Don't mix politics with comics. Sorry, that's been happening forever.)

Die Bold Comics presents LIFE DURING WARTIME.

The first issue looks at a future where Trump stayed in power and what his world looks like as far as a woman's right over her body.

It's not a pretty picture. Abortion is outlawed. adultery is outlawed, and birth control is controlled by the state.

24 pages. In color. Words by me. Art by Javi Lappara.

You can order the first issue from Die Bold Comics now. $10 a copy and $5 for shipping.

A page from an upcoming story I have in a anthology POTS N PANELS. This is going to be a really cool book with a lot of good stories in it. My story is "Thanksgiving" and the art is by the amazing JTravis Smith.

Sean Murphy recently reviewed two issues of a comic I created years ago, back when Trump was elected to hopefully his one and only term. The comics were the start of a series I was writing to show what the country might look like under a prolonged Trump administration. I was taking him to his word that he might not leave office, and this was long before Jan. 6. The plan was to continue this as a series, the first few issues would show individuals and how his policies affected them. The next issue would show a gay man living under Trump's rules. Then I was going into more of the world and the battle to overturn him. I have the first two issues up for sale at my site: https://ko-fi.com/dieboldcomics $10 (that includes S&H) If I can sale enough that shows people want more I will bring the comic back.

17 hours left and 101 backers. A little over $500 to meet our new goal of $3,000! Thanks for all the backers in the last day! Can we make it to that next level? I think so!

07/23/2024

24 hours to go! We'll finish the Kickstarter while I'm on my way to the San Diego Con. I've love to land in San Diego and check my phone and see we made $3,000! Can we do it? I say yes!

07/23/2024

It's almost 8pm CST and we have 37 hours to the end of the Kickstarter. We're funded at $2,300 and 93 backers at 114% of our goal. I want to thank everyone who has backed us, shared our posts, and liked them all! Without you all we would not have made it. Thank you so much! Now I really want to hit $3,000, so if you haven't backed and are a fan of Buffy or want to see a character you don't normally see in comics (Older heroes), please consider doing so. Or if you like a good story with awesome art!

Less than a week before San Diego! I'm still looking to set up any meetings with editors/publishers. I'm thrilled with the meetings I have so far, but I can fit some more in. I'm a comic book writer with a bunch of Indie creator and my own imprint Die Bold Comics. DM me.

In the next seven days, I'm going to highlight items from the Kickstarter. The first we're showing is one of the covers by Robby Musso. Robby has drawn Speed Racer, and Transformers and will soon have his own amazing comic Divine Circuits on Kickstarter. I'm not going to embarrass either of us by saying how long I've known Robby. You can get this comic for $20 on the Kickstarter!

We're heading into the last week of the Kickstarter. We really need help this last week to continue to get our total up so we can fund the next books in the series. The money we make here will be going to pay Hernan and printing and any other costs to continuing to bring this comic to you. We want to bring Alma to you on a regular basis, but for that, we need your help.

I'll make this post a few times between now and SDCC. I'm looking for meetings with any publishers or editors at the Con. I'll be honest, when I first made this post I didn't expect much or anyone to message me, but without naming names I've gotten some amazing replies back and can't wait to get out there to meet with them.

I want to show another item you can get on the Alma Kickstarter. This is a character you won't even see in the first issue. She makes her appearance at the end of the second issue. Alma's granddaughter Katie. She's 15 and comes to live with her Grandmother. There's a of backstory there. Also, it raises the question, was Katie supposed to have been the next Champion instead of her Grandmother?

"This Ain't Your Mama's Buffy!"

T-shirt for $40 on the Kickstarter.
