Tyler Chin-Tanner, scribe of A Wave Blue World, is the generous patron whose purchase has funded this webcomic for the next 36 days! My time is bought to work on A Distant Soil weekends until April.
Your generous patronage, your purchase of comics and art, your nifty donations keep my pen scratching and my computer humming. Thank you!
And yes, my weekdays belong to DC Comics/Vertigo, where I am chugging along on two new GN’s, one written by Warren Ellis, and the other by Derek McCulloch. I hope to be able to post more about them in the near future, but I know DC wants to keep a lid on one of the books for now.
