We uploaded Untouchable, a 4-page sketch comic about Rawlin's chronic and infectious health condition, and her self-loathing from it.
Mild content warnings for body horror, contagious chronic illness, and bad feelings from it.

This was the comics winner for this month's poll! Before I share it, let me tell you how it got made.
Recently, my local senator had a Town Hall meeting, and I was determined to go. I ran the gauntlet of Trumper protesters ranting about trans athletes (I recognized them from the library bomb threat back in October and waved to them), suffered through two plus hours of technological difficulties and clustering around smartphones in an overflow room, and then had to deal with one of my fellow citizens ranting about how she didn't want trans people around her children, we were just going to kill ourselves anyway.
The feelings that meeting gave me, I could not express. So I went home and drew all the genderful people who came before and alongside me, and I wrote their words instead--their joy, their survival, their power. And I converted that rage into fierce joy and shoved the local free libraries with them, and sent them to Florida, and disappeared into the night.
( 'This is the issue that we need to deal with in this century: what are we going to do with difference on this planet?' )

Jan. 24th, 2025 03:57 pmSorry for the delay; Arisia ate us and we plumb forgot! But the Madgic omnibus (in paperback form) is up for sale for $25!
Everyone knows crazy people have symptoms, not spirituality, so when LB Lee's brain started vomiting up mythopoetic nightmares, they presumed it a breakdown and bunkered down to wait it out.
It didn't work, and after four years, Mori said, "Fine! I'll handle it!"

* The squishy nature of magic, religion, and belief
* Divine parasitism
* Murdering the god in your head for mental health purposes!
* Boning ghosts, a personification of death, and otherordinary beings
* Building a path with the most undignified materials imaginable
216 pages, color cover with black and white interior; mix of text, illustration, and comics, 5.5" x 8.5". Collects Madgic #1-4, with some new edits and additions!

Made of NOODLES! is now uploaded!
Nov. 19th, 2024 02:05 pmI am truly floored that we apparently never uploaded this anywhere, but it was the winner of this month's fan poll, so we have uploaded...
Made of NOODLES!: 2016. Oh no! Sneak's arms are made of NOODLES! Very silly. 1 page. Script here.
Madgic #4 paper listing up for sale!
Oct. 21st, 2024 03:49 pmThis weekend was intense. But the listing for the paper version of Madgic #4 is up. $8 like the others.
Now to collapse and do nothing of importance for a bit.
EDIT: okay, I lied. Because there will likely be things needing taken care of, I decided to lurch ahead and upload the winners of this month's poll. And it was actually easier to just upload the ebook I made of EOZ for the Fitchburg Fandom Fest than it was to cut/paste and reformat it here.
So, with no further ado:
Embry, Olly, and Ziggy: my abortion story (by Rogan): This illustrated zine contains explicit violence, rape, incest, miscarriage, abortion and arguments thereof, teen pregnancy, disownment, hanging, a suicide attempt, and also consensual queer teenage sex. Reader discretion is advised. 16 pages. 2024. Alt-text built-in.
Boy Meats Girl: A zine about an abusive relationship, told overwhelmingly through collaged documents of the time: love letters, poetry, creative writing, photos, art, doctor's notes, etc. (The sole exceptions are written notes on the collaged pages, the Accord of 2004 strip, and the pages concerning the final confrontation.) As part of the process of making this zine, the originals were burned to create the final few pages. 32 pages, full color. Content Warnings: rape, vomit, strangulation, body horror, mental illness (specifically, PTSD and DID), headmate complicity in abuse, and endless whining. Script here.
Will update healthymultiplicity.com more properly later.

Gigi's Story has been uploaded!
Aug. 30th, 2024 06:10 pmAs the winner of the patron poll, we have uploaded Gigi's Story, a comic Gigi made in 2013 when we had a brief lull in our homelessness about her feelings about our family at this time. This is the only comic she has ever made completely on her own. We have also uploaded the script!
It was a very close vote, this poll, but Alter Boys In Love won by a hair, which means the whole thing has now been uploaded! (And the script has remained up.)
Enjoy, friends!
Enjoy, friends!
Sneak: I uploaded this month's comics poll winner, In Brightest Day, In Darkest Funk to healthymultiplicity.com! The text-only script version is here!
Rogan: I originally made these strips during the Homeless Year; they never made it into the book of the same title because the Green Lanterns are not my intellectual property. (Though Guy Gardner, the world's most obnoxious Green Lantern, previously appeared in Edward Cullen Adventures.)
While I was making this comic, I was struggling with feelings of worthlessness, psychological exhaustion, and worries that my being on medication was simply blinding myself to the truth of how shitty the world was. During this bullshit period of my life, it gave me comfort to imagine my favorite superheroic anti-role model fighting these phantasms of misery (and by making those phantasms comedic, I could laugh at my own despair). I still have a fondness for Guy Gardner as an emblem of someone who has never, ever let failure, internal or external alike, stop him from doing his damnedest to be a superhero (even though he's never been that GOOD of one).
I had completely forgotten these strips' existence until![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
hanasaseru remarked how much she'd enjoyed them, a decade plus down the line. I never expected them to win the poll the moment they appeared! I hope that despite the rough Homeless Year art, they still give you a laugh.
