One of the scariest government reaches ever has just occurred in our nation. You won’t find it in right wing or libertarian news outlets because they’re so panicked about being labeled “anti-vaxx” that they can’t even go out and tell the truth. It’s yet another example of why our media fails so much to counter […]
Comic Review: Amazing Spider-Man Alien Costume Saga
Just read the Spider-Man Alien Costume Saga Complete Collection vol 1-2, which are out of print but are still floating around there in some places. It comprises of issues 252-262 of Amazing Spider-Man along with the final 10 or so issues of Marvel Team Up and Spectacular Spider-Man 90-100, concluding in Web of Spider-Man #1. […]
Flying Sparks Volume 2 Is Live!
I left you with a cliffhanger in volume 1… …the resolution will leave you breathless. Mob Ties picks up right where book 1 left off, and I put my foot firmly on the action gas pedal and never let up. It just gets bigger, crazier. There’s new deadly villains. There’s new devastating secrets. There’s new […]
Worldcon 76 Committee Member Attacks Hispanic Author With Fake Review
One would think that while Worldcon was in a lawsuit with me over their defamatory statement calling me a “racist bully” that they would at the very least instruct their committee members not to further tamper with my business or try to harm my reputation over their angry extremist political stances. Well, it looks like […]
The Feast Of War Recap: The Value Of Good Men
Apologies for the lack of blog on Monday, but I was recovering from a weekend of too much fun, joy, energy, and needed the headspace to work on prepping my Kickstarter launch on Thursday for Flying Sparks 2: Mob Ties. You might be wondering what the title Feast Of War is, or why it was […]
I Fought With The Mob And I Got Ties #FlyingSparks
Only 6 days until we launch Flying Sparks Vol. 2: Mob Ties. I’m so excited. Flying Sparks has been so well-received it’s rejuvenated my love for comics all the way around. My vision when I created this was to get a superhero world that transcended comics. I want to expand to audio dramas, film, and […]
#ComicsGate Doesn’t Want Or Need Gatekeepers
Political gatekeeping has to stop. Last summer saw a group of guys who were forging ahead in indie comics in a way that was unique. We pushed each others books, cared about the craft, were working toward building a world where GOOD books were what mattered. The whole point of ComicsGate was to point a […]
Another Complete Graphic Novel!
Just yesterday Jethro Morales turned in his final pages for The Ember War graphic novel. The 120-page epic adaptation of Richard Fox’s bestselling sci-fi series is now complete! I’m super excited, as we’ve been working on this book for about a year. It’s taken a lot of time and effort, but it’s paid off really […]
Tucker’s Got The Right Of It
I beat the drum a lot of “never apologize to SJWs.” We’ve seen it over and over again in the book industry, as people come out with their art, get roasted because they “offended” some outrage mob on Twitter, and then they apologize for something they’re not sorry about, that they never did wrong, and […]
Captain Marvel: FINALLY, A Movie Supporting Trump’s Immigration Policies
I’m not going to give the same hot takes as everyone else. You’ll have your movie reviews that talk about the mess that is Captain Marvel. I think the sad part about the whole movie that there’s just very simple choices which are easy to fix and it could have been a fine movie. But! […]
Preparing For Launch
Getting close to the time where I’m going to be launching Flying Sparks Volume 2: Mob Ties on Kickstarter. I’m planning on launching March 21st. There’s a lot of work to do to follow up on my $30,000+ successful first campiagn. I’m trying out some different things this time around in hopes to expand the […]
I Guess He Should Just Start His Own Amazon
That way Tommy Robinson can compete in the marketplace of ideas, right? This is the new battlefield. These giant mega-corporations at every step are dictating what people can see and hear, and it’s in a complete attempt to influence people’s thoughts, elections, maintain power. Multi-national corps like Amazon and Google get governments to do their […]
Social Justice Destroys Churches
It’s amazing to me how ridiculous the major churches have gotten, and I see the Devil’s work at play here very clearly. “Church” often when it comes to megachurches has become about feeling good, hanging out, engaging in culture just like everyone else does. I had to leave a church over this shift to try […]
Women Lie About Rape
The #MeToo movement went completely out of control this last year and a half, destroying men’s lives, dragging them through mud, and more often than not, during incidents that are complete falsehoods like in the case of our supreme court justice Brett Kavanaugh. Award-winning journalist Megan Fox will be joining us on the lunch stream […]
Cover Reveal: Miss Sashi’s Flying Sparks 2 Swimsuit Variant!
The post you’ve been waiting for, as i know everyone’s been hyped to see this for quite some time. We finally have it in, and this will be the LIMITED EDITION variant cover for Flying Sparks Volume 2: Mob Ties. She did a beautiful job and I’m very excited to see these in print. We’re […]
I See The Same Mistakes In Every Culture War Battle
Every time there’s a flare up, the folk who try to be fence sitters and moderates do exactly the same thing. They’re engaged in a battle because they’re attacked, or some of their friends are attacked, and they try to play a “voice of reason” in this. The problem is, when you’re in the middle […]
The Truth About Fighting Big Tech And The Culture War
Brian Neimeier wrote a blog today about Big Tech, and utilizing their institutions that makes the point far better than I ever could. Is this a shit state of affairs? Yes. Will cutting ties with the tech oligarchs and publishing exclusively out of a personal web site with a storefront solve the problem? Demonstrably not. […]
An Interview With Me – Culture War & Steampunk
Did a nice interview with Russ Meyer over on his blog. Which was a lot of fun, talked about mostly writing and culture war topics. So, Jon…what’s up?(ie, tell us a little about yourself) I’ve dialed back a lot of stuff in order to just focus on fiction writing lately. That means less journalistic writing, […]
Despite The Alt-Left Trolling, My Lawsuit Against Worldcon is Going Forward
Last week we received news of my lawsuit against Worldcon 76, which I made for their wanton discrimination of me because I’m a vocal conservative author and the defamation they used to justify it by calling me a “racist bully” on their website. There are two major components to the suit, both very important because […]
Why Bother Being Republican?
The latest case of Chase Bank’s removal of Martina Markota’s bank account, over what appears to be for no reason other than her being a vocal right winger, is just another example of why the Republican Party does nothing except for harm you as an individual. If it’s known you’re a republican, you’re going to […]
Make Science Fiction Fun Again Now On Audiobook
Very excited to get this short story collection out on audio, including fan-favorite novella “Gravity of the Game”. This took quite a while to make because of the length of the book, so it should be well worth it on the audio side. It’s available through audible, so if you have a credit, now’s the […]
Flying Sparks, Alt-Hero Cover Reveals and More!
If you missed the lunch stream today you missed a LOT. I read the prologue to the alt-hero novel, showed everything on the Flying Sparks Volume 2 Kickstarter coming soon, and went through every single comic project with preview pages. Did you know I have EIGHT graphic novels in development? I’m running circles around the […]
Mainstream Publishing Has Changed A Lot – And For The Worse
Author S. Andrew Swann stops by today to give his take on the craziness in YA Publishing as of late. I published my first novel, Forests of the Night, in 1993. I was in my twenties and had all the emotions one would expect from a debut novelist. I was getting published! The world was […]
Legendary RPG Designer Banned Because Of Phony #MeToo Claims
Breaking news is that a gaming convention, GaryCon, just cut a guest of honor from their convention, Frank Mentzer, because of “harassment” allegations. The convention circuits seem to be stepping up their nonsense in recent weeks since the Vic Mignogna allegations in Anime. Like usual, conventions are trying to out-woke each other. Frank is one […]
