If I were smart, I wouldn’t have let Lightning Lady borrow my phone this morning.

I’m running a Spice Rack Comics Showcase on Patreon — a creator-by-creator spotlight featuring samples from every artist in the collective.

So far, I’ve highlighted:
• The Cummoner — delightfully unhinged fantasy filth
• Pixie Trix — sexy mischief wrapped in razor-sharp humor

And we’re just getting started.

By the time the dust settles, I will have shared 87 pages of NSFW comics with Patreon backers — all pulled from the massive Spice Rack sampler PDF. It’s a fantastic way to discover new creators, expand your reading list, and support the indie adult-comics community.

If you’re a Patreon backer, keep an eye out — more artists are being featured every few days, and some of these comics absolutely go places.

(And if you’re not a backer yet… this is a pretty great month to give yourself a gift.)

Since my Eisner Award nomination was announced, I’ve been e-mailed the same question over and over: “When are you coming *here*?” The answer is: As soon as I get invited to a convention near your town. Write the promoters of your favorite comic con and let them know! And if you’re a convention promoter and/or if you help organize a comic convention please get in touch and we can discuss how to make that happen.
