Hey guys! Season 2 is coming, so we put together a Season 1 recap in anticipation. Next week we'll share the cover of the next chapter, and the following week Season 2 will begin!


BARBAROUS returns for Season 2 on July 27th! Look forward to it!




PIXELS OF YOU is written by Ananth Hirsh and Yuko Ota, illustrated by J.R. Doyle, and published by Amulet!


Preorder PIXELS OF YOU today at this link! 



We are REALLY excited to finally talk about Pixels of You! This book was co-written by Yuko and myself, and drawn by J.R. Doyle, of Knights Errant fame. Collaborating with them was a dream, and we're psyched that this book is finally coming out on November 9th, 2021! 


Pixels of You is about Indira and Fawn, two rival photographers in a near future society where AI is ubiquitous in both grounded and fantastic ways. Here's the back cover copy:


“The idea of you is intimidating.”

“Does the unknown intimidate you?”

In a near future, augmentation and AI changes everything and nothing. Indira is a human who had to be cybernetically augmented after a tragic accident. Though she struggles with pain and the strange nightmares haunting her, she lives a mostly normal life, interning and showing her work at a local gallery. Fawn is a human-presenting AI who has to grapple with both her family’s expectations and how the world perceives AI. Though she works at the gallery with Indira, neither girl thinks much of the other’s photography. But after a huge public blowout, their mentor gives them an ultimatum: work together on a project or leave her gallery forever. Grudgingly, the two begin to collaborate, and slowly, their rivalry turns into a friendship—and then to something more. And as Indira and Fawn learn to navigate each other and the world around them, they find a connection they could have never expected.


Thanks so much for reading!

NI69 hats are now available for preorder in the store!

NICE! The design is done in puff embroidery, so it has a raised texture and is really clear and crisp! We've been trying to get this made for a couple of years and we're excited to finally make it happen. Note: this is a PREORDER, meaning shipments won't be going out until the end of May.


This design was originally seen on a pin, which you can also pick up in the store.  Thank you so much for the folks at DFTBA for helping us make this happen. Check it out:

Hi everyone! We're back with another update!

Here's a peek at Percy, from the next season of BARBAROUS! This is a summer look for her. The shorts are tiger-striped, and Yuko paired it with sneakers with a color-matched detail. Red is a key color for her in this story arc, so you can expect reds in her looks overall. 

Yuko's currently thumbnailing the first chapter of Season 2! Clip Studio Paint has added an interesting dimension to our process, so we've been exploring that quite a lot. It's a big shift for Yuko-- both of us have been Photoshop users since we started working in comics. 

So what happens in the meantime? April's side story begins next week, and features Percy and Lumia, and will be drawn by Kat Fajardo with assists from Pablo Castro. We love both of their work, and are really excited to be collaborating with them. Definitely check them out!

Hi everyone! We're back with another update!

Last time we offered a look at Cecilia in the upcoming season of BARBAROUS! This time we've got Leeds. His shredded clothes will be back, but we wanted to open the next chapter showing some of Percy's influence rubbing off on him. His joggers that look a little more designer, and the deep V tee is meant to show off. 

As mentioned previously, I've scripted out the majority of Season 2 and collected many of the references we'll need. Yuko's been diving into design and pre-production, and also exploring some new tools in Clip Studio Paint. I'm likewise training up on aspects of Clip Studio myself, to assist in writing and thumbnailing more clearly. 

So what happens in the meantime? In March and April we'll be running two more side stories. March's story will feature Percy and Leeds and will be drawn by Niki Foley. April's story will feature Percy and Lumia, and will be drawn by Kat Fajardo. We're really big fans of both of their work, and are really excited to be collaborating with them. Definitely check out their work!

Hi everyone! We're here with an update!

After working through a lot of freelance the past few months, I'm happy to say we are well into development for Season 2 of BARBAROUS! I've scripted out the majority of it and gathered up many of the references we'll need, and Yuko's been diving into design and pre-production. Yuko's been learning some new tools as well, so that is pretty exciting. Our process has become more and more formalized over the years, so things are moving along at a steady clip! You can see Cecilia above-- she's one of several characters who we do wardrobe for in advance. 

So what happens in the meantime? In March and April we'll be running two more side stories. March's story will feature Percy and Leeds and will be drawn by Niki Foley. April's story will feature Percy and Lumia, and will be drawn by Kat Fajardo. We're really big fans of both of their work, and are really excited to be collaborating with them.
