I haven’t been able to do any live conventions since the pandemic started, but I’m going to be doing a virtual one on May 15! EmCon is an anime and comic convention at the East Meadow Library in NY. I’ll be talking about what it’s like to draw and write comics and show off some examples.
It should be a lot of fun and anyone can register, whether you live in the area or not!
For more information visit the EmCon Facebook page, or go to their website to Register.
Celebrate spring with a new story I wrote in World of Archie Jumbo Comics #108. This story is hilarious, with tons of over-the-top hijinks from the Archie crew! The book goes on sale April 7. Here’s the official write up:
BRAND NEW STORY: “Smarter Than a Refrigerator” The Lodges have a brand new smart refrigerator, complete with a screen, an advanced control panel, and a voice assistant. The refrigerator impresses everyone with its ability to pour drinks and prepare delicious snacks—until, of course, Archie makes a mistake that causes the refrigerator to malfunction, ultimately ending in a robot uprising in Lodge mansion!

I’ve got a new story in Betty and Veronica Best Friends Jumbo Comics #286, which comes out this week. This one is a Christmas story (yes, it’s that time of year again), which was a lot of fun to write! The description of the story is as follows:
BRAND NEW STORY: “’Tis the Season to be Freezin’” Veronica is hosting her Annual Christmas Sleepover Party at Lodge Mansion with her friends including Betty, Toni, Ginger and others when the heat goes out! But that’s not going to ruin Veronica’s fun—they’ll just have to take the party outside, in a custom-built igloo!
