As a comic writer who hires artists for my projects, I've had the privilege of looking over comic artist portfolios in person and online.
I thought it might be helpful to share some of what I look for as I go through portfolios in order to help those of you who are newer.
If any publishers need short comics written for your horror or romance anthology, I'd be happy to pitch you something creepy or sweet!
Camera Man #2 production is wrapping shortly, and my calendar is wide open for new work.

Writers, how are you learning about structuring series? Is there a good resource for that?
(Please don't just say, "Read a series.")
Where are writers getting second opinions on their comic scripts from? I never see requests on here, but if it's not kosher to publicly ask then I will try asking around privately.

If you're looking for bold comics that speak out against Christofascism like Ken Russell's The Devils, might I recommend my short story MONOLITH? (Illustrated by the incredible V. Gagnon)
(Publishers: Let me know if I can send you my one-page pitch for the maxi version.)

That Ken Russell guy wasn't fooling around.
WHAT A PICTURE!
(Context: Just saw the new director's cut of The Devils. And sending thanks and love to my buddy Eric for making tonight happen.)

"That Andrew chap I keep seeing in the web, might HE be available to write thine newest sequential pictorial novel franchise?"
Yes. Yes, he is. 😉

I'm a writer with credits in Radiant Black, the Taco Bell Quarterly, and the Camera Man series.
Superheroes, comedy, romance, slice of life, horror--I can do it all, and on schedule.
My availability just opened up, so *let's dance*! 🕺

Well, my employment just drastically changed, so I am now looking for freelance work.
📢 If you need a Senior Copywriter or a Comic Book Writer, I'd love to be considered. 📢
Email & portfolio: link in my bio.
If possible, I would deeply appreciate any shares. Thank you!

I feel like Alan Moore has been saying basically the exact same things since the 90’s and we’ve just been relitigating the man’s reheated leftover opinions for like 25+ years
