Tarot card illustration: a white man in a business suit glares menacingly and clutches handfuls of dollars. Instead of legs he has several tentacles. Behind him is a rainbow pride flag with a dollar sign on it.

Text: 
THE TENTACLES OF PENTACLES
Upright: A corporation will fawn over you to get your queer dollars, but as soon as it comes time to actually defend queer and trans people, they'll cave to the loudmouthed bigots.
Reversed: Your queer community will experience an abundance of mutual aid.

My comic for the October issue of OUT FRONT Magazine features queer tarot cards of my own devising! One of them is even worksafe, ha ha, heh.

Hit up the OFM website to read the full comic in their digital edition! You’ll find me on page 6.

Cheers,

Dylan

Draw Out the Vote - Oni Press - Voting Comics

Here’s that announcement I was talking about!

Oni Press has put together Draw Out the Vote, an amazing project featuring comics by creators from all 50 states, plus Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, sharing their own personal stories of why voting is important and how it affects them.

Each state’s page also includes information on how to vote, registration deadlines, and more.

I did the comic for Colorado.

Check it out, find your state, and share, share, share!

Cheers,

Dylan

Valley of the Silk Sky Chapter 8

I’ve finished coloring all the pages in chapter 8 – still gotta do cleanup, but the hard work is done! That means Valley of the Silk Sky chapter 8 will commence on December 14 as planned. If you want to refresh your memory or get caught up, you can browse the Table of Contents on the Valley of the Silk Sky website, or you can hit up the archive here on Studio NDR.

If you don’t want to wait, you can always drop $1 a month over at my Patreon and get early access to pages. Patrons will be seeing updates on Mondays, and then the page will go public on Thursdays.

Also, this weekend on December 9, I’ll be tabling at Mini Comic Con 2 here in Denver. It’ll be at the Sam Gary Branch Library from 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM, and it’s FREE to get in, so head on over if you’re in town.

queer and trans comics by Dylan Edwards

You’ll be able to pick up my new books there: The Outfield collection, and Bleating About the Bush, which collects all of my old editorial cartoons.

And, of course, I’ll have all the rest of my books there as well, in addition to some Feeping Creatures art and merch.

See you there!

Cheers,

Dylan

Editorial cartoon book, and Valley of the Silk Sky progress report

LGBTQ editorial cartoons

The next stage of my Big Cartoon Archiving Project is nearing completion: a collected volume of all of my editorial cartoons for the Texas Triangle and TXT Newsmagazine.

I’m currently awaiting a proof of the print version of the book. Once I’ve had a chance to look that over and approve it, I’ll make it available for purchase. As with The Outfield book, it’ll be available as a POD print volume, a high-res PDF for a few bucks, and a web-res PDF for free.

While I’m pretty sure most of the world isn’t clamoring for a collection of political comics from a dozen years ago, I can definitely see the value of this book for anyone studying queer history during the Bush II years, or librarians who have an interest in archiving material from the now largely defunct queer newspaper scene. Or, ya know, anyone who’s looking for a stark reminder that Bushism was absolutely a dry run for Trumpism. Ha ha. Whee.

ANYWAY. I expect the book to be available probably in early December, assuming all goes well with the proof review process.

On a totally different note, Valley of the Silk Sky chapter 8 is coming along. I have four pages completely colored (still need to clean up and letter the scans), so I’m looking at a Dec. 14 launch to start publishing the new material (or Dec. 11 for $1+ Patrons).

For those of you keeping track, this means I’m shifting my regular update day from Wednesday to Thursday. Mostly this is because Wednesday already seems overcrowded with webcomic updates. Will Thursday be any better? Who knows! It’s kind of an experiment to see if it makes any difference.

Anyway, point being, VotSS returns in less than a month!

Cheers,

Dylan
