![In a dark, smoky room, a pair of hands belonging to an elderly robed woman hold out an ornate beaded crown of vines, flowers, and leaves. Below the crown is the bowed head of a teenaged redhead, his eyes closed and his chin-length hair pulled back in a messy bun.

The comic is live!
Into the Smoke, my very gay webcomic about a medium who binds himself to an evil spirit, has launched with episodes 1 and 2, the equivalent of about 12 comic pages!
From here, we’ll have a new episode every other Wednesday until all 12 episodes of chapter 1 have been posted. Don’t forget, you can subscribe to the ITS newsletter to get notified by email whenever a new episode posts.
