Taxonomically Unbound – Lawn Since Desserted
Yes indeed, it is time once again for a new Taxonomically Unbound. It may be groaned at in any one of these fine places:
on Studio NDR
on Tumblr
on Twitter
on Patreon
Also, in case you missed the announcement last week, don’t forget to check out Draw Out the Vote, the new website put together by Oni Press. It features comics by cartoonists from all 50 states, plus Washington DC and Puerto Rico, sharing their personal stories about why voting is important to them.
I did the comic for Colorado. There’s info for each state on how to get registered and how to vote, so be sure to give it a look and share widely!
Cheers,
Dylan

Draw Out the Vote
Here’s that announcement I was talking about!
Oni Press has put together Draw Out the Vote, an amazing project featuring comics by creators from all 50 states, plus Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, sharing their own personal stories of why voting is important and how it affects them.
Each state’s page also includes information on how to vote, registration deadlines, and more.
I did the comic for Colorado.
Check it out, find your state, and share, share, share!
Cheers,
Dylan

I thought I was going to have another announcement today, but it has not yet been officially announced. So. I may well be posting again shortly, just waiting for a green light.
ANYway. Do carrion.

Taxonomically Unbound returns, STAPLE! approaches
It’s been awhile, but I finally got around to making a bunch of new Taxonomically Unbound comics. These are my Most Worst Puns illustrated with various doodles and sketches I’ve done.

The first of the new batch may be seen in these places:
on Studio NDR
on Tumblr
on Patreon
on Twitter
Meanwhile, the STAPLE! Independent Media Expo is this very weekend Sept 8-9 in Austin, Texas, you’ll find me there at table 20A with my various comics and Feeping Creatures monster art.
I will also be on a panel on Saturday, Sept. 9 in The Theater:
4:30 PM – 5:30 PM: LGBTQIA Comics Panel – Prominent & Emerging Comics Creators discuss their work and experiences in the comics industry. With Lilah Sturges, Jeremy Holt, Alex Grandstaff & Dylan Edwards. Moderated by Sarah Marloff of the Austin Chronicle.
See you this weekend, Austin!

Up Next: Taxonomically Unbound, Valley of the Silk Sky stuffs, and STAPLE!
As mentioned previously, I’ll be running new Taxonomically Unbound comics this fall, and I now have an official start date worked out. So! Look for them to commence publication here on Studio NDR on Thursday, September 6.
As with other comics o’ mine, $1+ Patrons get ’em first, so I will once again be running them on Mondays for patrons. That means a start date of Monday, Sept. 3 for those fine folks.
$1+ Patrons will also be getting glimpses of my current work-in-progress, a new Valley of the Silk Sky short story to be published in an upcoming anthology. Patrons will be (or have already been!) getting concept art, thumbnails, pencils, and other peeks behind the curtain.
Finally, the STAPLE! Independent Media Expo is nearly upon us! It’s happening Sept 8-9 in Austin, Texas, and I’ll be there with my various comics and Feeping Creatures monster art.
I will also be on a panel on Saturday, Sept. 9 in The Theater:
4:30 PM – 5:30 PM: LGBTQIA Comics Panel – Prominent & Emerging Comics Creators discuss their work and experiences in the comics industry. With Lilah Sturges, Jeremy Holt, Alex Grandstaff & Dylan Edwards. Moderated by Sarah Marloff of the Austin Chronicle.
So if you’re STAPLE!-bound, add that to yer to-see list.
Cheers,
Dylan

FlameCon approaches; We’re Still Here is out; New Taxonomically Unbound in the works
FlameCon is next weekend, August 18-19! You can find me at table M86A throughout the weekend, selling my comics and art.
I also have a panel on Saturday, August 18, from 7:00pm – 7:45pm:
Memoir Comics: Picturing a Queer Self
I expect my piece for We’re Still Here will come up on the discussion. Speaking of which, the book is now available! Either at that link I just linked, or in person at the show.
As far as new comics are concerned, I have a new Valley of the Silk Sky short story in the works for an upcoming anthology. That means it’s going to be awhile before I’ll be running the ol’ VotSS webcomic, so in the meantime, I’ll be publishing a bunch of new Taxonomically UnBound comics I’ve been crafting.
If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve probably seen my occasional pun tweets. TaxoUnbo is me taking those tweets and illustrating them with sometimes relevant (and sometimes not) doodle art.
My plan is to start running the new comics in September, so stay tuned.
Cheers,
Dylan
