Hey y’all,
Another “new” comic today. This one’s more or less a true story.
Light apologies for the language. 2007 was a different world:
I often tend to romanticize what it was like living in Crown Heights back then. The gentrification hadn’t really started at all, but no matter how I try to spin it I was technically the tip of that spear. I can’t pretend no one ever tried to fuck with me or I never got scared, but mostly if you kept your cool, people were cool.
If you think you’ve seen this one before, you likely have. I re-drew it because the acting, and casting, and sense of place in the original never quite lived up to my standards. It's also been 18 years, the statute of limitations on George Lucas-ing is up.
Anyway. Thanks for so much for reading. Hope everyone is as well as it can be.
More soon…

I really enjoy the way you tell stories. You have a great talent for representing different types of people.
Remember the old one. A classic.
