Transposes makes Comicosity’s top 100 LGBTA list!
Over the past few months, Comicosity has been assembling a list of top 100 comics with LGBTA representation, and Transposes is featured as one of the titles.
There’s a lot of good stuff on the list, so if you’re hankerin’ for new queer/trans comics to read, give it a look!
It’s been awful quiet around here. What else is going on, you might ask?
Mostly I’ve been working on stuff for print publication, so I haven’t had much to post online. Turned in my story for the upcoming Secret Loves of Geeks anthology (should be out this winter), and am currently scribbling away on a couple of pieces for Stacked Deck Press’s next coloring book (Butches of the 20s, 30s, and 40s). The first coloring book of Queer Heroes is available for purchase here, and includes my Edward Gorey illustration.
Anyway, if you want to take a sneak peek at these works in progress, I’ve been keeping my Patrons updated with teasers. One single dollar a month gets you access, and helps keep me creating queer comics goodness.
Cheers,
Dylan

DiNKy business
DiNK Denver is coming up this weekend (April 8-9, 2017), and I will be there with a pile o’ comics for sale! I’m one of the local artists profiled in this here Westword article.
I will also be on a panel on Sunday April 9 at 2:15 – Cultural Influences of the LGBTQ Community on Indie Art
And. AND. Valley of the Silk Sky is nominated for a DiNKy Award for Best Webcomic!
If you’ll be in Denver this weekend, please come to the show and support indie creators!
EVEN MORE EXCITEMENT:
Back in November I was interviewed by American View magazine, a publication of the U.S. Embassy in Japan which seeks to bring American culture to a Japanese audience. Well, that interview is now live! It’s available in both English and Japanese (there’s a button at the top right to switch languages), so you have no excuse not to read it.
Finally, I’m wrapping up a comic I’ve been working on for an upcoming anthology. I got really sick this past month and there was other family stuff going on, so my productivity has been very slow of late. I’m gradually getting back on track, though, so hopefully I’ll have some new stuff to show off soon.
As per usual, my $1+ Patreons are getting sneak peeks at works in progress, as well as behind-the-scenes fun. A mere one dollar a month snags you these fine perks, and helps keep me creating new stuff. Pitch in if you can!
Cheers,
Dylan

Valley of the Silk Sky chapter 7 concludes! ALSO: New comic on The Nib!
Page 71 wraps up chapter 7, and you can read ALLLLLL about it here:
on the VotSS tumblr
on Tapastic
on Studio NDR
What next, you ask?
I need to work on an anthology comic for a bit, so I’m not sure yet when chapter 8 will start. It’s already thumbnailed, though, so hopefully not too terribly long.
In the meantime, I have a new comic up on The Nib as part of a series on trans bathroom stuff. You can read it right now with your very own eyeballs.
As ever, if you want to peek behind the scenes to see works in progress and other goodies, pledge $1 a month (or more, if you like!) to my Patreon.
Cheers,
Dylan

MEANWHILE. I will be at the ol’ Emerald City Comic Book Symposium this weekend, March 2-5, tabling with Northwest Press once again. You can find us at booth 1719.
I will have a NEW MINICOMIC by jiminy:
This one contains my trans/ace comic what was published on The Nib last year, and also this one from PEN America, and a couple of sketch comics about my trip to a trans bar in Japan.
Anyhow, ECCC will mark the debut of this mini, so this is your first chance to snag it. I urge you to do so!
Cheers,
Dylan

Valley of the Silk Sky page 69 is hiding the evidence
I meant to say, evidence? What evidence? I know nothing of any so-called “”"evidence”"”. [Do NOT seek evidence at these links, there is NO evidence to be found.]

There IS some evidence to suggest I’ll be at the Emerald City Comic Book Concern and Symposium next (!) week. If such a thing were indeed true, I would be found at the Northwest Press booth #1719.
Maybe if you’re going to be in attendance, you should do some sleuthing to find out if, in fact, this lead is legit. Investigate all possible leads!
Secretly,
Dylan

In non-VotSS news, last night I finished up the thumbnails for an upcoming anthology piece. So that’s two short stories for two different anthologies I’ve thumbnailed in the last month.
One of ‘em is for We’re Still Here, the all-trans anthology from Stacked Deck Press, which was officially announced last December.
The other one has not yet been announced, so you’ll have to wait patiently to learn more. But I’m really excited about both stories, so I’ll be sure to keep you updated as to the proceedings.
Cheers,
Dylan
