I had a good year professionally, largely defined by writing Toxic Avenger books. I'm in a nice spot working with incredible collaborators in a frustrating industry.
Got a couple things coming in 2026--my newsletter is the best place to follow what I'm doing.

"Toxie Goes to Washington" begins next month. It's our five issue storyline plunging the Toxic Avenger into the sick and corrupt world of Congressional testimony, Senate procedural votes, and ruthless political assassination.
Read a five page preview here and pre-order with your local comic shop. Your country depends on it. https://aiptcomics.com/2025/12/08/exclusive-ahoy-preview-the-toxic-avenger-comics-6

I have a comic in EC's Cruel Universe #4 about an election that gives rise to authoritarianism and tears the country apart. It's, uh, out now.
