I wrapped up a lot of the print process yesterday and got word everything is under way, so I figured it was a good time to drop the digital edition of Flying Sparks to backers. Check your email and spam folders for an email from Jon Del Arroz if you backed and missed it. I’m […]
The
A ComicsGate Divided And How To Get It Back On Track
It looks (perception wise) like there’s been wave after wave of defeat in the movement to save comics from the clutches of the radical leftists at Marvel and DC. The movement both grew a little too fast and lost its purpose over the last month or so, and there’s a few natural reasons for it. […]
Bounding Into Comics Interview
I was interviewed about The Ember War, Comicsgate, my books, all sorts of stuff. A good one: Back the Ember War here:
When You Don’t Fit The Fake News Narrative
A couple of months ago I was approached by an NPR journalist who said she was coming to talk about “crowdfund comics” and wanted an interview. A few weeks ago, a story ran on NPR torching crowdfund comic alternatives to the mainstreams, libeling them as “alt-right” and spending an hour on doctored interviews to make […]
Last Day For Steam And Country Sale
Last week I launched the conclusion to the Adventures of Baron Von Monocle trilogy, the Fight For Rislandia. This week, both books one and two are on sale, and For Steam And Country is only 99 cents. This is the perfect time to pick up all three books in the series and get in if […]
The Media Only Cares About Sensation
I started reading Hoaxed by Mike Cernovich yesterday, and it provided me with a great context for the last couple of years of fake news. All of it comes and goes so quickly it moves us as a society from one outrage to the next and doesn’t actually accomplish anything. One of the interviews in […]
The Mark Of Zorro In Comics
As the leading Hispanic voice in science fiction, I realized there was a small hole in my pop culture knowledge in that of the character Zorro. Zorro was created in 1919 by Johnston McCulley, with the short novel, The Curse of Capistrano, which ran in the magazine All-Star Weekly. The story was soon adapted to […]
The Internet And False Choices
Kanye West yesterday got in the news because he was both wearing a Trump hat and a Colin Kaepernick jumper. This shouldn’t be news at all, because what someone wears is ridiculous as it is, but Kanye was making a statement with the matter. In the internet age, everything has become a zero sum game. […]
New Book Release: The Fight For Rislandia!
I’ve been waiting to get this full trilogy out for awhile, working hard, making sure all the pieces came into place and now we finally have a complete story of The Adventures Of Baron Von Monocole! The Fight For Rislandia is out now on Amazon! This is the darkest and most action-packed installment of the […]
Fighting The Left And Their Lack Of Morals
It’s a very hard road, and that’s why most people tend to stay out of the fray. As we’ve seen with Brett Kavanaugh, the objective is destroy a person completely and utterly FIRST, and find any narrative that will corroborate that narrative (not prove, just paint it), along the way. I’m very bothered with the […]
SFWA Stands For The Doxxing Of Children
A year ago, my children were doxxed. I was facing immense pressure because an author, who happens to be the SFWA president, was running a campaign to smear and slander me, which began with her calling this blog “egregious stupidity” on a public forum when I’d never had contact with her in my life. She […]
Bowsette???
All that’s crossing my feed the last couple of days is a fan-created Super Mario character called ‘Bowsette” which is a mixture of Princess Peach and Mario. I discovered it by accident because of my interest in “I Love It” memes which stem from Kanye West’s recent song. Which I found this: Upon further research, […]
