Still canโt believe that @kumerish invited me over to play in Blind Alley. Thank you Adam for being one of my first comics friends. Itโs so inspiring to witness this world youโve built โจ Congratulations on 5 years of Blind Alley!
Made this comic back in 2019 for @pdx_zines โMistakesโ anthology and found myself thinking about it the other day. I was really going buckwild on my pattern pack here.

Secret Room Press is headed to New York to take a bit outta da big apple this week! We'll be tabling with all our books (including our new anthology Do You Love Me?), a bunch of RISO prints, and a very special NY-only sticker... reveal coming soon.
Honored to be a part of this festival and so stoked for the absolutely insane lineup of talented comix folks. We'll be tabling at 123, right between our pals @zinehug and @floatingworldcomics . A heck of a row!
.
What kind of buffoonery should we get up to while we're in New York??

Second slide pic is so you know who to say hello to when you run into us wanderin' around the big city!

Jaws Wipe is officially out! 10 tracks burbling with straight-from-the-basement energy, crafted in darkness by laughing gremlins.
@jokeyteethbourbonjuicer and I have been tinkering with some of these songs for years now, and itโs nice to finally release them.
Shout out to @psychic.parking for the cover photo.
Six months ago, we (@rorsjarckson and @lawknee ) got married!
After over a decade together (and at least 2 false starts at planning a wedding) it was truly a dream to have so many of our friends and family come to our cute lilโ backyard in Portland and celebrate the life weโve built together.
Every detail is a testament to the help, love, support, and talent of our community, and these photos shine with the joy we felt all weekend. We can still feel the warmth that yโall brought to our home. Big shout out to @psychic.parking who took many of these amazing photos!

Special thanks to organizer @bananapoons and the fine folks at @floatingworldcomics + @mallratspdx , as well as Special Guest @draculazer ! So many cool folks come together for this annual festival of toys, art, comix, zines, clothing, and general strangeness.

Nowโs as good a day as ever to point out that the three most recent comics in the Ft. Carvey universe are in print and available through @secretroompress !
Check out the zine that @the_comics_journal_ called โa perfect minicomicโ and two others with โa broader appeal and higher page counts.โ
