Today on campus, BFA and MFA Comics students got together to break in our new homeroom with a giant scroll-sized riff on Wally Wood’s 22 Panels That Always Work. Next time you’re stuck on what to draw next, might we suggest Zoom In On A Face Punch (With Eyes Popping)?

MFA Comics alum Kayan Cheung-Miaw has completed a gorgeously vivid mural, “This Asian American Life,” up on Hyde Street, near the SF Asian Art Museum! In comic-like panels, the viewer journeys through scenes of SF Chinatown through childlike eyes and memory. Congratulations on the beautiful mural!

I also got to contribute some annotations to this! This book is really something special. Dozens of queer and trans artists, writers, and scholars added their thoughts and experiences to this book — expanding and broadening what was already a seminal piece of queer literature.
Happy book release day to @redgoldsparks.bsky.social for GENDER QUEER: THE ANNOTATED EDITION!
This is a wonderful expansion of the original memoir, with notes from Maia and other queer luminaries (including me!)
