In this video, I break down the very first question every comic creator has to answer: What are you making?
I talk about:
How I mash up my influences (Black sitcoms × anime × movies) to build new series
Why Favor of Athena became the flagship of the Bee Terrific Universe
How Marvel’s 80s RPG, CSI, Men in Black, X-Men Legends, Fullmetal Alchemist, Fairy Tail, Darker Than Black, Star Wars, and Monk all quietly shaped this story
Why representation mattered to me back in 2006 and still does now
If you’re a writer, artist, or just a nerd who loves superhero mysteries and anime-inspired worlds, this one’s for you.
💬 Question for you:
What are YOU making? Tell me—in broad strokes—in the comments. Comics, novels, light novels, games, whatever it is, I want to hear it.

Read the stories, see the art, and explore the Bee Terrific Universe:
