Arrived at San Diego today. Preview night was awesome. Really looking forward to the rest of this weekend 🙏

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

I don't know how it happened folks, but somehow I was invited to be a special guest at SDCC this year. This is my first time, so I'm a little nervous. But super excited to be a part of these three panels. Please come out and say hi!

That's a wrap on Fantasy High: Freshman Year, folks. This project has truly changed my life, and I am so immensely grateful for every person involved in the production, as well as the incredible D20 community, who have been so kind and welcoming in response. See y'all soon for Sophomore Year 💀👑🐱

A panel from the Fantasy High webcomic, featuring Fabian, Gorgug, Kristen, Fig, Adaine, and Riz preparing themselves for their next adventure.

Back home early from NYCC. Signing went better than I could've possibly expected, and I got to meet some amazing folks. Feeling pretty blessed right now.

TOMORROW FOLKS!! I’ll be signing at the WEBTOON booth from 5-6 PM. Don’t miss it!

Sometimes Fantasy High is an action adventure series. Sometimes it’s a hospital soap opera 🤷

Wise words from your local detective, Riz Gukgak.

Read "One Bad Day: The Riddler" by Tom King and Mitch Gerads the other day. Blown away by how good it was. Knew I had to get the hardcover for my collection immediately.

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 23/09/2025

Look folks, i dont know how i tricked them into it, but WEBTOON is letting me do a signing at NYCC this year. So, come say hi on Thursday before they realize the mistake they made!

Welcome home, Daddy Gorthalax. The fans have been waiting.

This commenters got me figured out lol. If I’m writing a fight scene and need something vaguely cool to happen, there’s a 90% chance I just have Fig start shredding her guitar.

I've had to make some impossible choices about which bits to cut when adapting Fantasy High. But some rats are just too sexy to get rid of.

Went to my first con yesterday. Got to meet the legendary Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo. Showed off my own comics a bit. Then missed my ferry back home and was stranded for a couple hours lol. All in all, pretty good day.

Going to my first convention today.

Doing a D20 Neverafter rewatch, and man, I just love this cast so much. Top to bottom, some of my favorite PCs.

There are few joys in this world like being able to write Bill Seacaster. Absolutely love this episode of Fantasy High.

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

The first time I've gone to a movie opening night in years, and I loved it so, so much. No spoilers, but there's a perfect line Clark has about Krypto that is just everything I love about the character. Can't wait to watch this again.

FYI this is, in fact, a reference to NADDPOD. Shoutout to the 2 crew.

A little over a week since the launch of Fantasy High and the response has been so overwhelmingly positive. Thank you to all the D20 fans. Y'all have been so kind 🤍

Happy Launch Day, folks. Fantasy High comes to WEBTOON tonight! Don't mind me, I'll just be anxiously rocking back and forth.

Finished reading the Invincible comic. What a story. What an ending. 144 issues and I still wish there more. Thanks @robertkirkman.bsky.social

Mark your calendars, folks, because we have a release date. Fantasy High is coming to WEBTOON on March 31st! Hoot Growl 🎉

Managed to catch up on Critical Role in time for the Campaign 3 Finale last night. As a fan since C1 days, this ending was everything I could've wanted. What a perfect and beautiful last scene.

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

The response to the Fantasy High announcement has been surprisingly heartwarming, particularly from the D20 subreddit. I was pretty scared ngl, but so far everyone has been super supportive and enthusiastic. I hope we do y'all proud!

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

Saw Dimension 20 at Madison Square Garden last night. Unreal show. More pyrotechnics than one would possibly imagine.

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

Keep your eyes on Gachiakuta. Gonna be a big hit when the anime comes out. For fans of Soul Eater, this is the true spiritual successor.

Been catching up on Critical Role and man, I love this woman. Gotta be one of my favorite PCs across all three campaigns.

First time participating in a #PortfolioDay My name is Derek and I've written five Webtoon Originals and have a number of traditional comics in anthologies. Main genres are action, fantasy, and superheroes! Always looking for interesting work, both in the Webtoon space and trad comics. dvsong.com

Ahem. And while I have your attention. Dear @darkhorse.com, please let me write an Avatar the Last Airbender comic. Before I started working on comics professionally, I made my living professing my love for this series on YouTube. I've been training for this.

Derek V. Song @derekvsong.bsky.social · 29/11/2024

Less than a week left to support the Sidequests Anthology on Kickstarter. Extremely proud of the comic I contributed, and would love for y'all to check it out. Link: kck.st/40xWEu7

Lotta new followers today, so here's another piece of concept art for one of my upcoming webtoons 🙏🙏🙏

Some more concept art for an upcoming Webtoon. Will probably be a while before it releases, but this has been in the works for almost a year and a half.

A couple months ago, I got the chance to collab with the legendary Scott Godlewski(Spider-Society, Young Justice, Ms Marvel) on an original superhero short story called "Don't Forget the Flowers". It was a dream project and you can now back it on Kickstarter as part of the Sidequests Anthology!
