For any of you that read comics in general: you may have heard that as of a few days ago the prominent independent comic artist Ed Piskor (Wizzywig, Hip-Hop Family Tree, X-Men: Grand Design) is dead by way of suicide. He was put on trial by the kangaroo courts of social media for allegations that where yet to be proven, with some of said allegations proven false after this tragic incident occurred. Everyone should be given a fair trial before being exiled or discredited. Linked below will be Ed's final note for I feel he can explain himself from beyond the grave better than anyone else.

My hero of independent comics is dead. I'll never get to meet him, never get to work with him, never see what he will make next. I'm not sure how to process this which is why I've made this post. People should know why this happened, and should know that this was caused by people within the comics community.

I will not speak of this outside of this post, my page will continue on as normal and I understand if this post gets taken down that those who run this site do not do it out of ill will. I just can't believe comics has led to the death of someone whose work means so much to me. without Ed or his Comics history channel Cartoonist Kayfabe I would have stopped drawing a long time ago.

Here is Ed's note

I'm disgusted with people who read and create comics, myself included, but at the same time I love the comics medium and getting to meet creators one on one.

Hey there, Things have been slow and rather quiet on my end this year, I apologize for that. 2023 was choppy waters for a lot of us and the future is uncertain; so lets remember to spend time with those we care about in the present, for the present is all we have.

Now then, there's quite a bit I want to accomplish this coming year so I need to be a bit more strict on myself to see it through. Of course actions speak louder than words, but expect the following from me in 2024:

-A new look (Icon and Banner)

-open commissions

-Digital art

-Pixel art

-Comics

-Voice acting (?)

-Prints & stickers for sale (?)

An old boyfriend of mine called me a "sentimental Romantic" and well, he's right. I bring this up because though I really don't know most of you, I'm happy you've come around to look at my stuff, even those that hate it. What else would you expect from a fool?

Heading out to NV to see a friend for a few days. I'll be gone for a week (not a big surprise for most who know me here).

If I don't post in a month consider me dead or forgetful. Have a spooky Halloween everyone. Make sure to eat all your razorblade candy so you can grow big and strong; you need the iron.

Hey everyone! Please check out my friend's upcoming art competition. Cash prizes and cool designs galore! She's put a lot of work into this and it would mean a lot to get some friendly competition going!

Here's the competition link

Hey Hey! I'm back after too long. No real reason I was AFK for a month, just seemed to happen. My sincerest apologies everyone.

Have a mermaid doodle I forgot to post for Mer-May.

Wasn't sure if I should post this or not, decided to just make it a news thing for people who stop by my page to see. Just some 2022 leftovers.

Well here I am, 100 internet folk that liked my scribbles enough to follow this page. This little page tucked away in the damp, soggy corner of the internet.

From one clown to a hundred (plus a few), thank you. I won't promise something big, only to keep creating and to hopefully be better with each piece. It's a feeling you could only describe as positive to have you all around.

It would be a funny goof if 3-4 of you guys leave after I typed this out to make me look stupid.

Recently there has been a few new faces on my page so hey there, thanks for stopping by.

The Ugasi art contest has been nothing but a positive impact for me and my desire to create. Being able to sit down and shoot the shit with a few other creators has reminded me why I even care about art; the ability to share a vision with other people. So what if Newgrounds isn't the most popular site on the web? at least the users here care about making something and as corny as that sounds, that's what matters most.

A big THANK YOU to Ugasisvelta and the whole crew of the Ugasi show (even Power) for noticing my work. I now have even more people to hold me accountable when I don't produce something, which is dearly needed.

P.S. Everyone reading this should check out the podcast (I was not paid to say this... this time.)

Alright, took a bit longer then expected but I am mostly set up. Now time to get to it, thanks for sticking around.
