We are mega happy to be publishing Hanna K’s work. We actually started by making three books. The first one is THE NEW FRONTIER, which is a bit of an introduction to this massive space spanning sci-fi story she’s working on, with comics and sketches in it. We also published a super tiny comic which was her hourly comic day from 2013 and we also did a reprint of her cool swedish book called Lite drömmar (it’s only in swedish though).
All three books are in the shop right now, and she’s coming with us to ELCAF next month so.. get autographs and irl high fives there!
YES!
Haha, yeah! Here it is! Some stuff I’ve made that you guys can order! Go check em out in Peows shop (and look at all the other amazing things they’re selling!)
The New Frontier is kinda like a fanzin version of this Tumblr, and it looks really really cool! Lite Drömmar has this comic in it, plus a whole buncha other stuff - but Lite Drömmar is all swedish!
Also: ELCAF is totally happening and it’s going to be awesome - so come say hi!
Aw yeah! Cannot wait to get on this!
The first digital issue of Spera: Vol. 3 is up on comiXology! This issue features art by Michael Dialynas and a cover illustration by Hannah Christenson.
Pira, Lono, Adel, Chobo and Yonder seek the Treasure of the Waterfall, only to come across one unexpected thing after another, each more dangerous than the last!
I’m so psyched that this is out!
This is my third adventure in SPERA with Josh and i’m mighty proud to draw a full issue this time around!Check it out! Spera Vol. 3 Issue 1 is on comiXology!
This was part of a review written about my first comic book back in 2011 on a pretty ‘respectable’ comic news site.I was very inexperienced and nervous but I had fun making it, it’s not a masterpiece, I will admit that!
I feel like I’ve come a long way since then and have improved and am finally figuring out what I want to do with my art.
When I first read this review I was fine with it, until I got to this line.
“… because the author is pretty”?I have a million things to say about this but I’m still filled with rage years later.
But hey, I’m still making comics so get out of my way if you are not going to be serious about it.

This tiny comic is Test Number One. But more tests are required.

I was on a panel at a recent comic festival about diversity in comic books, which is a huge issue. Comics struggle a lot with representing different people, different ethnicities, different sexualities, and it’s something I want to do better. One thing that was brought up at the panel was the idea that diversity shouldn’t mean just making sure that “your group” is represented, it should be that all people are represented. I thought that was really important and useful. I’ve been very focused on women in comics (we are pretty underrepresented), and I feel I’ve been successful in making lots of comics with women and girls in them, and encouraging my fellow Lady Cartoonists. Now I need to look beyond that, and do a better job of representing the diversity of the world around me.
