Aug 5, 2026

I heard about this study last week, and I couldn’t resist drawing a lighthearted comic about it that morning!

Direct link to the PNAS study here. 


Early access Jul 30 (WIP) and Aug 5, 2026 (final); published publicly Aug 6, 2026. 


Duskbirds Comics Vol. 1 Available at Seattle Paper Pushers

If you’re in the downtown Seattle area, you can currently pick up a copy of Duskbirds Comics Volume 1! This is a collection of some of the more “lighthearted” comics drawn in Duskbirds.

Address, hours, and info about the space is here, or click the photo above to learn more. Photos from the zine are in this earlier post here. Thank you to those who picked up a zine already, I hope you enjoy reading it!

This is a temporary pop-up zine store! If you’re interested, make sure to stop by their space in downtown Seattle by September 15, 2026. The space looks airy and beautiful, and they have a wide collection of zines from a variety of comic artists. It looks like a very fun place to hang out, browse, and read!

“Paddleboarding” | #44 + Info about Duskbirds Print Zines! – April 1, 2026

Mar 10, 2026

Finished March 10, 2026; first posted online Mar 27, 2026. 

This comical incident occurred during a wonderful trip I took with my partner and his family when we visited the Philippines. Amusingly, for whichever reasons, I was better able to balance on the paddleboard compared with my partner. While on paddleboard duty, I noticed a growing swarm of tiny jellyfish billowing below us. I distinctly remember thinking how we must avoid falling into the water, and, well – you see what happened next! (Luckily, the stings were more itchy than painful.)

I will be at the Peninsula Libraries Comic Arts Fest (PLCAF) this Saturday April 4, with printed zines of Duskbirds Comics volumes 1 and 2 available for the first time! If you’re in the area, consider stopping by and saying hello. I’d love to see you! Scroll down this post to see photos of the printed zine!

To celebrate, I retouched several of the older comics specially for this print edition, incorporating what I learned over the past year drawing The Harbinger’s Path comic. These touched-up Duskbirds Comics are currently only available in print. I’d like to eventually update these pages to the website here, but I don’t have a set schedule for when I can make time for this. So if you can, please stop by if you’d like to see the updated versions of these comics! :D More info further down in this post.

Early access March 27, 2026; published publicly April 1, 2026.
