Shadow Doctor #1

Black History Month may be over, but comics by and about POC still continue to roll out, and this is a banger! This is a true story about the life of Nathaniel Calloway, a black doctor who was forced to turn to working with the mob to make ends meet in the ’30’s. Great story, great art, and a great purchase if you’re into Black American history!

After a short break from posting, I’m returning with a profile of one of my favorite extant writers, Bryan Edward Hill. He has written both for film/TV and comics, as well as being a photographer, director, and even a producer of a few tracks. Join me as we dive into a fascinating modern creator of color!

I had a busy week last week, but I’m back at it with a profile of one of our great modern writers, Ta-Nehisi Coates! If you haven’t read his work in The Atlantic, or The Washington Post, you should check it out. He’s also written some great comics!

I’m excited for this one, Oteil is one of the greatest extant musicians, and has played with basically everybody important in the jam scene. I’m happy to continue celebrating musicians of color today, although I think I’ll switch back to POC comics creators in the next post, so keep your eyes peeled for that one.

This will be the first in my series of musicians of color (as opposed to the comic creators of color that I’ve been doing), and what a person to start off with!

Welcome to the third in my series of profiles on comic creators of color. I’ll probably switch to some musicians tomorrow for balance, so stay tuned! As always, there are resources at the bottom of the post that you can donate to. Thanks for reading!

I’m continuing my series on POC creators this week, to help get the names of my favorite creators of color out there into the brains of my readers! The most direct way to support these comic creators is to go buy their books.

Hi folks, welcome back! It’s been a while since I’ve written a post, because my two main subjects of posts, live shows and comic books, haven’t been happening! I want to extend my wishes that you are all safe and following CDC regulations at this time. You keep me safe, and I’ll keep you safe!
