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.)

Blank Label Comics is excited to announce the release of Starslip Crisis, Volume 1 by Kristofer Straub.

Fans of Straub’s razor-sharp wit and cool, clean drawing style will be pleased to have the most complete collection of his Starslip work available. And they will be thrilled to see extras like a cast page, a map of the known universe, a Cirbozoid anatomy lesson, and early designs of the ship and crew! With a foreword by Scott Kurtz, this book is a must-have for legions of Starslip fans.
