Jeremy Hambly has had a crazy few months in the world of Magic The Gathering. First, Magic went after him for mocking a cosplayer on twitter after she had rallied a number of players to harass and mass complain about him, just like we’ve seen done with various conservative personalities in different hobby-entertainment industries. Magic […]

The page is meant to track the sales of Comicsgate and indie projects in order to provide an aggregate amount of sales, plus help people find new projects to back. Our intention is to capture all […]
Every Day I’m Hustlin’ – A Zillion Livestreams
Part of the reason my stuff keeps selling is I’m constantly selling. It’s a pain in the butt, it’s not very fun, it makes my social media accounts not very fun too (I’m sorry friends!) but it’s a part of the game in order to get the next leg up. I’m focused on business first, and […]
You Can’t Stop The Signal
They tried to shut me out when my first book came out, removing me as a speaker from my beloved BayCon and turning all of my friends against me. That book went on to be nominated for the Dragon Award. They tried to mock me and tell me I was “applying for a job at […]
Tor Tries To Shut Down Hispanic Author’s Promotion Efforts
Tor Books is very scared of me. So scared they’re trying to shut my promotional platforms down by having their followers mass report me after they harass and gaslight me. It’s absolutely crazy that a company would do this, but this is where we are in 2018. Why? I’m a #1 Amazon Bestseller, a successful […]

What Is #ComicsGate?
Most people who frequent here are familiar with the movement, but former D.C. Comics artist Mike S. Miller, who’s currently running the Lonestar IndieGoGo campaign, wrote a nice analysis about the movement for people who aren’t quite familiar with it: As the comic book world braces for its annual mecca to San Diego Comic Con, […]
The #ComicsGate Crowdfund Successes Keep Rolling
Honestly, it’s starting to look like we have our own little pocket industry here. While the books I’m talking about now aren’t making the $300-400k amount, they are making far more than most other first time comic kickstarters that I see launching. The most recent success story is Mike S. Miller’s Lonestar: Heart Of A […]
Blacklisting Didn’t Work, So They’re Trying To Harass Us Out Of The Industry
Ever since I came out of the closet with how I voted, it’s been one thing after another in an attempt to gatekeep me out of the industry. It started with a convention removing me from their speaker circuit as most readers are aware, with many of the same people from that convention then enacting […]
The #ComicsGate Success Is No Fluke – People Crave Good Comics
We’ve had a few different successes in comicsgate now that it’s actually becoming a full on subset of the industry, not just a couple of guys with flukes. This is very positive, and I hope we continue toward this trend. I’m personally cutting back my DC Comics purchases (which ranges from about ($12-20 per month […]
