Me and My Comic (Disabled Creator Here!)

Hello! I've mostly been hanging out in the Modern Comics forum since my book was mentioned in a post there about the 7 new series Image is putting out in November, one of which is mine.

 

This is my book:

And this is me:

I'm disabled, and I write, draw, tone, and letter the book with my mouth. You can see a trailer for my book that explains more about it and shows how I work.

 

The book started as a Kickstarter, and was picked up by Top Cow as an ongoing series from their Minotaur Press kine, like THINK TANK.

 

I still have a few copies of the Kickstarter trade available at my website - only 600 were printed, and I have around 80 left. Please note that my wheelchair is currently broken, so it may be 1-2 weeks before I can ship out orders.

 

Anyway, here's a sneak peek at the first 8 pages of the first issue, exclusively for you!

Very impressive! You have more talent in your mouth than I do in my entire body.

 

I see what you did there. Thanks!

 

I am dead serious, couldn't draw a stickman to save my life. That is incredible.

 

Will be pumping this at my LCS tomorrow.

Thank you all SO much!

 

I have a favor to ask, if you're willing to listen.

 

My wife, Sylv Taylor, is bed-bound with Lupus and her laptop is the only link she has to the outside world. That laptop is also what she uses to create art, including coloring comics. It's dying - it shut off 10 times in 3 hours today - and when it's dead she'll be utterly isolated and unable to create.

 

PLEASE consider helping in getting her a new laptop. If you can't pledge, PLEASE share this with your friends. If her laptop dies and I can't replace it, she's going to have nothing to do and no one but me to talk to, all day, every day. This laptop is literally her life and her world.

 

The Indiegogo I'm running is at: http://igg.me/p/425032/x/1218935
