Today is the official release day for my new graphic novel Unicorn Boy and the Slumber Party of Doom! Made with blood, sweat, and unicorn tears.

Crawling out of the pit of despair to bring some GOOD NEWS AT LAST: Cover reveal for the graphic novel I've been working on is COMING TO YOU LIVE THIS FRIDAY AT 9AM EST!!! Had a blast getting to work with some of the Best In The Game on this one ❤️ Any guesses on what it could be? 🏛📚👨‍🏫🎭📝🌎🕰

A digital mock-up of a black book cover against a teal background that says "Cover reveal Friday May 1st at 9am EST". An illustrated drawing of the book's main character, a latin boy with wavy brown hair, a green blazer, and black glasses, is seen pointing to the book and asking "Oh? What's this?".

Remember when 80's cartoons would reuse the same 2 minute of animation when the heroes would power up? And it was like a rock band playing the hits. Kinda aiming for that vibe with my Unicorn Boy series.

RIP Sam Kieth. His impact on my generation of comic creators cannot be understated. I shared some thoughts about The Maxx, the classified ads in the back, and my first published fan art! Full blog post here: yaytime.com/blog/rip-to-...

Unicorn Boy is featured in the current issue of The Week Junior magazine…the one with Wallace and Gromit on the cover?! 🤯 Those absolute legends of cinema that I grew up obsessed with!. Look for it on UK Newsstands and mailboxes if you are subscribed.

Any editors looking for a project that captures the love and pride of Bad Bunny? Oliver Aguilar & I have been developing a new graphic novel series as a love letter to our Puerto Rican roots! It’s called Coqui! Coqui! and it’s going to be full of humor, heart & plenty of adobo seasoning! #kidlitart

Two coqui frogs (one brown and one golden) play a guitar and maracas and sing a song with high energy.

"especially if AI appears unlikely to live up to its hype" is such a great sentence, it's like they can't say the words "what if AI doesn't do what it's meant to"

Once shared a ride to Big Apple Comic Con in a car driven by Peter David. As I squeezed into the backseat Peter popped in a cassette of the soundtrack to Empire Strikes Back & said “Go strap yourselves in. I'm gonna make the jump to light speed” & proceeded to drive us through crazy midtown traffic.

Think firing the entire federal workforce will save America money? Federal civilian employees account for just 4% of the federal budget. Even if someone like Musk—or any president—fired all of us, it wouldn’t make much of a dent in government spending. Don’t fall for it.
