Hi if you're Black/Black mixed and make a comic/webcomic, reblog this post w pics/info/links!!! I WANNA SEE AND SHARE EM!!! (or alternatively recommend your faves by Black creators!)

Well, for starters.....

Dillon Dark was raised since birth to hunt monsters at the expense of things like basic social etiquette. Now, inducted into her mother's supernatural ROTC program at college, Dil learns there's much more to her existence and fate that she could have ever possibly imagined. Contains LGBTQA+ content.

Pepper Estrella DeJesus Estival has been chosen as a hunter of all things grody and disgusting. Whether it's fighting were-wolves, drag racing dullahans or flirting with the mysterious Prosperina, when something goes bump in the night, Pepper and her crew Bump Back.

A supernatural superhero story about a group of magical young adult superheroes living in Scarecrow GA fighting off monsters and magical mayhem.

A low-stakes slice of life/romance comic about gay young adults hanging out at local goth hangout Purple Prose Coffee.

"Honestly, Indiana Forrester! Why aren't you a girl?!" College student and photojournalist intern Indiana Forrester's girlfriend of one year broke up with them upon learning she had mistaken them for butch lesbian. But, despite her rudeness, her parting words made Indiana wonder if they knew they were a guy or if they'd just never had reason to question their gender. Naturally, they decide the best way to find out their gender and sexuality is to put on a skirt and jump into the deep end of a dating pool. A pool conspicuously filled with college football stars, mafia hitmen, sleazy photographers and maybe one entire roller-derby team.

Possibly...

How to Draw Manga and Influence People

A comic I'm kicking around about trans manga authors in Japan.

On a good day I'll admit to being the author of Comic Stans, an ironic Penny Arcade Knockoff about people in a Comic Book Shop I started as an April Fools Joke in Comic Shop of Horror.

And, there's more, but that's all I want to show people at the moment.

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

this also goes for aesthetic or -core titles. 'y2k tank top' is going to get you resellers and fast fashion brands advertising to people looking to meet a current trend. 'thin strap crop tank top' is going to get you a diverse group of results and not upcharge you to hell and back

additionally, shop second hand when you can, second hand and thrift sites typically organize clothes by the cut and color. theyll be more affordable than a depop seller curating you a style to sell you

useful terminology for different kinds of clothing shapes :)

Andre 3000’s “ 47 Messages “ Jumpsuits for the OutKast Reunion Tour in 2013. Every night he wore a different jumpsuit with a conversation starting message printed displayed on the front of it. In his own words, he said that he thought the fashion statement ( quite literally ) could act in a progressive manner, aiding socio-cultural concerns.

All 47 jumpsuits went on to be displayed in a gallery at The Savannah College of Art during Art Basel Miami. These jumpsuits also went on to spark a collection of t-shirts with the same messages. [ x ]
