“Stratosphere”

Proud to present my latest comic: a short sci-fi romance! This time with art by Beck Kubrick and colors by HonkyTonk Comics Ernie:

A VERY long time in the making, as rough versions of these characters and these scenes first popped into my head only months after I graduated college! I was extremely blessed to have the talented Beck Kubrick (@beckkubrick) choose to work with me

Jon’s Quotes

“I watch them through the glass: specimens. Flies. I watch them. And I know. In ways normal men cannot: I know. I see thing: beyond things. I see the strands of fate that bind us: victims to victor. So let them scream; let them shout my name. My ears hear nothing but the weaving of the web.”
― J.M. DeMatteis

“Writers like to believe they're in control of their material, but that's just a comforting lie. After more than twenty-five years of making my life as storyteller, it's become extremely -sometimes painfully- clear to me that I'm just a vehicle, a way for the story to get out into the world. But it's the story itself that does the telling.”
― J.M. DeMatteis, The Amazing Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt
