That Jolly Red-Suited Fellow Up On The Rooftop: Spider-Man

On Sale Now.

Right in time for gifting season — our five-page ‘Spider-Man goes to the library’ story is now collected in the latest Amazing Spider-Man paperback from ASM writer Zeb Wells and artists including John Romita Jr., Ed McGuinness, and a murderer’s row of other creators of which I am lucky enough to be one.

Ho, Ho, Thwip.

Via Marvel:

Collects Amazing Spider-Man (2022) #6-8. It's Spider-Man's 60th Anniversary - and Marvel is pulling out all the stops! Someone from Spidey's past has captured the Sinister Six and used them to create the truly terrifying…Sinister Adaptoid! Can the webbed wonder possibly triumph against the might of an android that boasts the powers of all of Spidey's deadliest foes? And who is the face behind the Adaptoid's attack? Brace yourself for one of the biggest adventures in Spider-history - and you won't believe how it ends! Plus: Norman Osborn is back! But what does he have planned for Spider-Man?! One of the biggest status-quo shake-ups in years will shock you as Spidey dons a new costume with accessories that look vaguely…familiar. Is that - a glider?!

Available via Bookshop.org (and basically all online retailers) or for direct order from a local comic shop or bookstore near you.

— but if you’re buying gifts written by me this holiday season why. stop. there?

For the Marvel Cinematic Universe fan: Loki: The God Who Fell To Earth

I did not work on the television program Loki (2021) — HOWEVER. It did pull inspiration from the character’s 60+ years of comic evolution, including our short-lived, but now self-contained paperback. Available from online retailers and local book and comic shops.

Hourly Comic Day 2021

Hi, all.

February 1st, 2021 was annual HOURLY COMIC DAY, and I’ve always wanted to participate — and this year, we also had a book to promote — so I did. First on Post-its®, then on a tablet I’ve been trying to get the hang of, and then back on Post-its®.

Cameos from Jennifer Wright, Zoom co-workers, and TV’s Lupin.


Princess Dinosaur illustrator, Ashley Quach, also (brilliantly, adorably) did her hourly comics as Princess Dinosaur — thread here.

Pick up Princess Dinosaur here or from a local bookstore near you — and find everything Ashley draws as Sassquach.com
