I’m going to be set up in the Brookline Room at Table 3A—I so excited to sell more hard copies of Little Death Vol 1 and talk about the possibility of a physical print run for Vol 2.
I wasn’t able to fund Vol 2’s physical print run in 2024. I’ve been a canary in the coal mine when it comes to censorship of adult comics and LGBTQ+ comics in recent years. It has been ROUGH. I’ve worked on Vol 2, through the signs of things getting worse, because I believe this art is needed. Creators in the crosshairs of many different marginalizations are having a bad time, now more than ever. I am still hopeful that with enough people excited about this project, I can crowdfund for a physical print run next year!
Thank you for all your support!
There are only 2 boxes of Little Death Vol 1 left in stock! If you want to reserve a hard copy of Little Death Vol 1 right now, you can order it 🔗online. Thank you so much!

On October 22-23rd I exhibited Little Death Issue 1 at the Massachusetts Indie Comic Expo. It is a huge honor that my story was admitted into a space of legitimacy and visibility by the Boston Comic Arts Organization. I recognize that for storytellers tackling difficult subjects in our work, this opportunity gives me a real life chance to represent art that is widely misunderstood and vilified in online spaces. I am extremely proud to have been able to stand there and show Boston who I am and what I’m about. Thank you MICE for granting me this opportunity. I will definitely be applying for future MICExpos and possibly other cons as well!
I was treated well by staff and by the Co-Director of MICE, Dan Mazur, who assured me that my comic, although geared toward mature readers, would definitely find an audience at MICE. He was correct about that. I still don’t know how many copies of Little Death issue 1 I sold last weekend, since I haven’t made a full accounting yet, but it was enough that I did more than just break even. I also had wonderful conversations with adult readers who were relieved to find work like mine at MICE. I met some of my local art heroes, who gave me words of encouragement, too. The crowd was kind, respectful and responsible, which I am grateful for. Now that I have tabled at one con, I feel much better prepared to handle my next one.
My table had only one comic book, but I brought tons of eye-catching merch which included stickers, soft gloss prints, postcards, and linoprinted totes & shirts. If you were unable to make it to MICE, there are still a few saved on my online shop: https://pompoison-studios.square.site
Thank you MICE! A special mention and thank you to my dear friend Dumby for supporting me through the entire con. She brought me meals while I tabled, helped me communicate my needs to MICE staff, watched my table while I used the restroom, and prepared the most delicious veggie pasta dinner with baby bella mushrooms and asparagus on Saturday night when I was too wiped out to cook for myself. I’m so grateful you were there and did so much, Dumby!
And thank you to Jack Turnbull, my tablemate in the Brookline room, for words of wisdom and encouragement. I’m sure we will meet again. Till next con!
Big day for a beginning comic creator: hauling 2 crates full of my book babies and sending them out into the world. 🍂 Preorder customers: You will have gotten an email from me with your tracking number. Each parcel has a hand written note and a handmade gift sticker. Thank you so much, everyone!💖
On October 22nd-23rd I’ll be tabling at MICE! Preorders for Little Death Issue 1 will close on October 20th at midnight EST. Then regular orders open and the price changes from $15 to $20. If you’ve been pondering snagging yourself a copy, I suggest you take this opportunity!
While I’m still figuring out a display for my new online shop that isn’t horrendous, you can find my handmade prints, stickers, and books right here! https://pompoison-studios.square.site/
I was primarily using Etsy for my e-commerce, but with all of the opaque seller fees they were taking, I realized they aren’t the gold standard anymore for small sellers. My Etsy store, https://etsy.com/shop/pompoison is still active, but I’ve made those prices higher to direct interested shoppers to my much more reasonably priced store.
DeadLove linocut print on cotton duck canvas, 12×12 inches, $20.00, only 3 left in stock as of October 11
This gallery contains R-18 art mixed with general art. Trigger warning for the following themes: noncon, gore, incest, monsters, tentacles, werewolves/beasts.
I’m excited to announce that I’ll have a small table at MICE this October 22-23!
Admittedly, I have never done a con or anything like this because I was always a bit shy of them (Ellery and I have imposter syndrome in common). If you have any advice for displaying artwork at a small table, let me know! I requested a small because I honestly didn’t think I’d get in (imposter syndrome at work!) but I have loads of work to show including, but not limited to: traditional prints, digital prints, and the Little Death Issue 1 physical comic.
If you see me there please come and say hi! I am a friendly tomato~
