Project #2: Stretch Marks Graphic Novel: A Psychologic Autobiography
What it’s about: A personal comic that reflects on the times that people STRETCHed my self-esteem with their reMARKS about my body. I am tired of seeing fat/big/plus size/beautiful people lose in today’s society — from the way we are portrayed to the way we talk to ourselves and how we internalize self-hatred adopted from ideas gathered over a lifetime. Stretch Marks was a graphic novel started in 2017 and now completed in 2022 to reclaim how I feel about my body, which I hope helps others to love theirs too.

Project #3: Fa Sheng: Origins #1
What it’s about: The epic journey of the death-cheating, mind-bending Shaolin Master begins here, in a thrilling, all-new comic. Readers of the The Adept know Fa Sheng as a death-cheating, mind-bending Shaolin Master… but he carved a long, bloody road to get there. Fa Sheng’s story begins in the latter days of the 19th century when the propaganda and carnage of China’s Boxer Uprising force him to reevaluate his purpose in life, to dedicate himself to helping those in need. It isn’t easy. Between Fa Sheng and his goal of enlightenment stand ruthless adversaries, backstabbing power-grabbers and cowardly charlatans… any of whom would gladly dispose of anyone in their way.
