Valley of the Silk Sky page 39, and a PiQue peek
Page 39 of Valley of the Silk Sky features PERKY ENTHUSIASM and BLOOD. Read all about it here:
on the VoSS tumblr website
on Tapastic
on Studio NDR
For new folks who may have wandered in after reading my Fusion comic on trans representation in media, Valley of the Silk Sky is my queer YA science fiction webcomic that features an all-nonbinary cast and a few trans characters. I post the individual VoSS pages here on Studio NDR (my ancient, creaky website devoted to my art), but I built a whole other website to host All Things Valley of the Silk Sky.
So you’d want to head over there if you’re a nerd for world-building, or want to read up on the cast, or find out more about other VoSS stories in other publications.
As far as where to read the pages, as I said you can read them here on Studio NDR, but this site build is, as I said, old and not very mobile-friendly. If you prefer to read on a tablet or phone, both the Voss tumblr website and the Tapastic page are mobile-friendly. Tapastic is specifically designed for webcomic publishing, so it has several nifty features for your reading pleasure, like place-holding and new page alerts.
Speaking of Tapastic, I started adding some Politically InQueerect cameos to the PiQue archive there. The most recent post is from Transposes, where Archer, Todd, and Dee show up as faces in a crowd. See the page in question here, and read the “more” stuff at the bottom for further trivia.
Finally, to any new readers, you can buy Transposes and Politically InQueerect comics from my publisher, Northwest Press. And you can read a 16-page standalone Valley of the Silk Sky story in the Beyond Anthology. Neat!
Anyway, see you next Wednesday for the latest VoSS installment!
Cheers,
Dylan

Well, now, what have we here.

Trans representation in media comic for Fusion
So anyway, that announcement. (If you’re wondering what happened to this week’s Valley of the Silk Sky page, I posted it yesterday, so see previous post for deets.)
I made this comic for Fusion about trans representation in media, and it is now live and awaiting your eyeballs!
Also, random surprise convention added this weekend, November 7-8: Rocky Mountain Con. I’m sharing a table with a friend, so I guess look for me in the artist alley with all my queer comics!
Cheers,
Dylan

Valley of the Silk Sky page 38 (warning: contains GLASSES HORROR)
Surprise Tuesday update! Because reasons. Valley of the Silk Sky page 38 is here, but be forewarned – it does contain scenes of graphic violence against glasses. Witness the carnage here:

With any luck I will have fun and interesting announcements for tomorrow, so check back then!
Cheers,

What next for our beleaguered protags? Tune in next week and so on and so forth.
[This is me trying not to dish out spoilers for my own comic, doncha know.]
I foresee other exciting comix announcements imminently, but for the time being this here is what I got.
And so,

Valley of the Silk Sky page 36, and a wee bit of Steven Universe fan art
Page 36 of Valley of the Silk Sky is up, and it is not messing around, I tell you what. Read it here:
on the VoSS website
on Tapastic
on Studio NDR
I guess I can’t really say anything else about it without spoilerizing, so let us move on to the next thing:
A wee bit of Steven Universe fan art! Like all queer nerds, it seems, I am digging this show, and Peridot is easily my favorite of the gems. (It is not lost on me that she shares some particular personality traits with my own Archer Hewitt of Politically InQueerect fame.)
I guess I just have a thing for cantankerous curmudgeons. As character archetypes go, anyway.
The drawing up for your viewing pleasure on Studio NDR and Tumblr.
Meanwhile, I gotta get back to work on Secret Project X, which I will hopefully be able to reveal to you in short order. Stay chooned.
Cheers,
Dylan
Steven Universe fan art: Peridot and Centipeetle
Coming as a surprise to no one, Peridot is my favorite of the gems. I thought it would be fun if she had a pet centipeetle, so here you go. I’ve also posted this to tumblr, if that’s your thing.
