No Kickstarter. Selling this the old way. One at a time. The dream is dead. What happens if the insurrection succeeds? Trump is President for life. The first issue examines a world where a woman's right to choose is outlawed. $15 including S&H.

A chilling look at a future under Trump and more rights taken from women and their right to their bodies. Written by me and drawn by Javi Laparra.

The comics for the Alma Kickstarter are here. The gemini boxes are here. I'm waiting for the bags and boards, which will be in today. By this week I should have everything packed and ready to ship.

I have screwed this Kickstarter up so many ways. Nothing that will effect the comics. Just the printing and anything else I could. I spent a lot more money than I needed to, cutting into the money I was supposed to have for Hernan to draw the next issue.

Well, they say you learn from your mistakes and I hope that's true.

I've decided to do a substack. It's called Die Bold and will be about my writing, my comics, my time in retail, and pretty much whatever else I think of to write about. I've held off mentioning it until I had a good start on it. This site will have a paywall for some material. I'm only offering one tier for what I hope is a fairly good price. For the price of a comic book, $5.00 a month you can subscribe and unlock the extras on the site. I'll be talking about writing, creating, retail with much longer posts behind the paywall. I'll also offer free looks at some of my comics and other writing. But I will also be offering a lot in the free section so please subscribe and I think you'll be glad you did. You're going to get a lot of free content so I think it'll be worth it. Click on the link and it'll bring you to the site. This week I am probably going to be out of town but I've got some posts dropping throughout the week, some free and some paid. I also have a site to chat so feel free to go drop some words there. I'll be posting more about this and all the features as we go along.

(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.

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!

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!

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!
