Hi everyone!

I've recently been thinking about expanding my CosPain wares, and I need your feedback! Which types of merch would you be most interested in seeing added to my stock?

To participate in the poll, please visit my Patreon page here.  You do not need to be a current Patron to vote.

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

It's that time of year again! Well, to be honest, it was SUPPOSED to be that time of year a couple weeks ago, but I forgot. ANYWAY.

For the uninitiated, I run a poll every year to determine Ray's shirt color for the next year in my weebcomic CosPain. I do this because he's one of the only regulars who doesn't cosplay, so it gives him a little bit of variety and also helps me keep track of which "era" of CosPain I'm in.

Since I don't have quite as much time as I usually would, the poll will be ending on Friday, 12/26 at 11:59 PM ET. The selected color will be revealed with the New Years comic, which will go out to $3+ Patrons on Tuesday, 12/30, and to everyone else on Tuesday, 1/6. Cast your vote, and let your voice be heard!

To cast your vote, please visit my Patreon at the link below.  You do not have to be a paid subscriber to participate in the poll.

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

With my recent announcement about CosPain, I've decided to use tonight's stream to get some work done! Tune in to the BWHComics Twitch channel at 8pm ET while I work on art for the Patreon-exclusive story "A CosPain Carol (but for Halloween)" and chat about ... stuff! I'll be joined by channel favorite Kelci D. Crawford, who I'm sure will question why I'm promising people a page a day for a month.

​Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

CosPain may be on a brief hiatus, but that doesn't mean we're dropping this tradition!

For the uninitiated, here's the deal: since Ray isn't a cosplayer, he doesn't get to wear a ton of different outfits. That's why I hold an annual public poll to pick Ray's new shirt color for the coming year. The winner will be revealed with the New Year's Comic (another annual tradition of mine).

To access the poll, please visit the BWHComics Patreon page.  You do not need to be a current Patron to participate in the poll.

This year, the poll will only run for one week, closing on Tuesday, December 17th, at 11:59pm ET.  Make sure your voice is heard!

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

Those of you who caught my recent CosPride! Impromptu Art Livestream will recognize this illustration. While this moment is technically non-canonical, the flags do accurately reflect the gender identities and sexual orientations of the portrayed characters. It's a piece I've wanted to draw since Pride Month, but I was inspired to finally make it by recent events.

This year has been tough, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community need our support now more than ever. They are your friends, your family, your coworkers, your acquaintances. Real people are afraid. Real people need help. Real people need a safe space where their right to exist is not in question, and I am committed to keeping the BWHComics community as one of those safe spaces. And I can do that because of your support.

So in order to thank you, and to give back a little, I am giving any Patron at any paid tier that requests it a 5.5"x8.5" print of CosPride, free of charge.  Please DM me to let me know you're interested by December 1st so we can coordinate it. In addition, I will be making a donation to the Trevor Project to support LGBTQIA+ youth in crisis for each Patron that requests a print.  We are also currently running a fundraiser for them through the BWHComics Twitch Channel, so if you also want to donate directly, you can do so through a link on the main page.

To every member of the BWHComics and CosPain community, know that you are loved. You are wanted. You are welcome as you are, and we'll all get through this together.

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing. 

Hi guys!

Ohayocon is coming up this weekend, and I've had three panels approved! I'm excited to be returning to in-person events, and we're coming back with a bang! Here's the lineup:

FRIDAY

• WHODRAWNIT?! Mystery and the Comic Medium

Ever wanted to learn how mystery comics are made? Then look no further! Join me for a discussion of the mystery comic medium and a demonstration of techniques for crafting a graphic whodunit or cozy of your own.

12:30 AM (technically Saturday) - Hayes (Panel 7)

SATURDAY

• CosPain Live Draw!

Join me as I work on a strip from CosPain and answer questions from the audience!

8:30 PM - Taft C-D (Panel 3)

SUNDAY

• Decrypting Less Than Secret: The Making of a Cryptid Comic Anthology

Join our panel of local creators as we discuss the process of organizing, writing, and drawing the cryptid comic anthology Less Than Secret!

10:00 AM - Taft C-D (Panel 3)



Beyond panel scheduling, there is one other relevant item I want to bring up. I do not officially have a table in the Artist Alley, but Ohayocon has an unusual policy this year: they've given me the opportunity to apply for a last-minute table in the event that anyone fails to show up to claim theirs. I could be notified at the very last minute of its availability. So fair warning, there's a chance I'll be announcing a table with very little notice (if I get very lucky)! Fingers crossed!

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.
