Comics Archive
On this page is a list of archived comics I’ve made in the past along with descriptions! These contain age ratings. As most of the material on this page is horror, some of the content can be seen as sensitive material to some and appropriate age ratings and trigger warnings will be labeled with such. Viewer discretion for these materials is advised.
While the art and writing quality on some of these is dated, I think there’s a value in archiving our old work, especially if at some point our comics resonated with past readers and gave comfort, means of exploration, and a safe space to experience horror and hard topics. I believe that horror is a fantastic vehicle for exploring complex topics with so much nuance if done right. While some of these could have been updated for modern times, I am proud of the work that a younger version of myself put into these and the growth I have found in my old work. My modern work would not have the same footing it does now if I did not have comics to help me explore and grow in art very rapidly.
Working in comics was also my first time I had given myself room to create paid work for others including paying editors for script edits, paying for guest comics, and finding my footing with management of small projects and cross communication between others. It was important for me to try to uplift others in career spaces how people in the past had uplifted myself and this was my first avenue exploring this.
Thank you for your viewership.

Esta versión surgió como respuesta a los fans hispanohablantes que querían tener la oportunidad de leer el cómic cuando se hizo viral y para ayudar a que nuestro colega traductor hispanohablante tuviera trabajo remunerado.
Antes de ser contratado para trabajar en la franquicia Five Nights at Freddy’s, un colega y yo colaboramos en un breve cómic ilustrado sobre la cuidadora de la guardería de Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach. Este cómic se hizo viral en plataformas como webtoons y tiktok.
Cómico está clasificado PG-13
Advertencia: Horror corporal, muerte infantil implícita, pérdida de autonomía, angustia emocional, escenas sangrientas implícitas (partes mecánicas con aceite)
El cómic sigue a los robots cuidadores de guardería, quienes, al fusionarse en una sola unidad, se descontrolan al detectar fantasmas que rondan el terreno donde se encuentra su lugar de trabajo. Nuestra intención era explorar el increíble potencial narrativo de estos personajes. Mi colega y yo adaptamos el material con un tono más oscuro para profundizar en los aspectos de terror a lo largo de la serie. Nos encanta el material original, pero nos dimos la libertad creativa para explorar a los personajes con temas más sombríos.

Blood Sugar fue mi webcómic de larga duración en el que trabajé desde 2018 hasta 2023.
La historia iba a tener 13 capítulos en total (solo llegué a 5, qué pena. Pero lo pasamos bien, chicos). El cómic seguía a un espíritu llamado Sid que aparecía únicamente en la noche de Halloween para buscar nuevos niños que pidieran dulces y golosinas. Cuando los vampiros con los que solía juntarse aparecen en el mismo lugar que él en un Halloween en particular, esto significa problemas para él y sus nuevos amigos. Juntos viajan por lugares embrujados, barrios e incluso el inframundo para ayudar a Sid a limpiar su nombre de un crimen muy grave que le imputaron los vampiros de su pasado y llevarlos ante la justicia para que dejen de aterrorizar a los humanos. Esto también incluía arcos argumentales de Tiffany y Regina, quienes exploraban su propia comunicación con los demás, la necesidad de madurar demasiado pronto, la ausencia de figuras importantes en sus vidas y la sensación de estar atrapadas entre la niñez y la adultez como adolescentes con grandes expectativas sociales a pesar de ser niñas.
El cómic comienza siendo tierno, inocente y cómico, y gradualmente se inclina hacia el terror psicológico y el slasher a medida que avanza. La intención subyacente de la historia era explorar las relaciones interpersonales de influencia (especialmente dentro de los espacios sociales queer, donde muchos cargamos con traumas y heridas que pueden permanecer sin procesar durante años, manifestándose en camarillas y agravando el dolor si no se abordan), lo que sacrificamos para evitar el ostracismo y encajar, las formas en que enfrentamos el abuso utilizado como arma en los espacios sociales, y las profundidades de nuestro ser que debemos afrontar y explorar para encontrar paz, sanación y libertad.
El cómic iba a terminar con una fiesta en una casa que salía terriblemente mal, algunos vampiros dándose cuenta de hasta dónde habían llegado con la violencia manifiesta y retrocediendo, Denji tomando la decisión activa de continuar y creyendo que tenía derecho a la violencia que había causado debido a la violencia que él mismo había sufrido, y enfrentando consecuencias permanentes por parte de Carrion por elegir la violencia extrema continua. Quería mostrar que la violencia es una elección, al igual que ser mejor y crecer. Las chicas crecen y se convierten en mujeres jóvenes creativas y libres que logran amarse a sí mismas y tener confianza a pesar de las presiones de la adolescencia, y Sid encuentra la paz en sí mismo y en la nueva vida que puede afrontar, reconciliándose con la violencia que él y otros habían sufrido, pudiendo seguir adelante y empezar de nuevo.
Cómico está clasificado PG-16
Advertencia: Horror corporal, violencia, escenas ligeramente sangrientas, sangre, abuso psicológico, acoso, emetofobia, imágenes perturbadoras.

Prior to being hired to work on the Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise, a colleague and I collaborated on a short fully illustrated comic about the Daycare Attendant from Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach. This comic went viral on platforms such as webtoons and tiktok.
Comic is rated PG-13
Warning: Body horror, implied child death, loss of autonomy, emotional distress, implied gore (mechanical parts with oil)
The comic follows The Daycare Attendant robots as they’re merged into one unit and go haywire from detecting ghosts haunting the grounds that their workplace is built on. Our intention was to play with the awesome storytelling potential directions these characters have. My colleague and I adapted the material in an edgier fashion as a way to lean harder into some horror aspects of implications through the series. We love the original source material but we gave ourselves the creative freedom to explore the characters with more dark themes.

Blood Sugar (Chapters 1-5) - English
Blood Sugar was my long form webcomic I worked on from 2018-2023.
There was intended to be 13 chapters total (I only got up to 5, RIP. But we had a good run, boys). The comic followed a spirit named Sid that showed up only on Halloween night to find new trick-or-treators to mooch candy and sweets off of. When vampires he used to run with show up in the same location as him on one particular Halloween, it spells trouble for himself and his new friends. Together they travel through haunts, neighborhoods, and even the underworld on helping Sid to clear his name of a very extreme crime pinned on him from the vampires previously in his life and bring those vampires to justice to stop terrorizing humans. This also included arcs of Tiffany and Regina working through their own self discovery of communication with others, being forced to grow up too early, absent figures in their life, and feeling stuck between childhood and adulthood as teenage girls with weighty social expectations put upon their shoulders despite being children.
The comic starts as cute, wholesome, and comical, and moved gradually more towards slasher and psychological horror as it went on. The intention with subtext of the story was to explore interpersonal relationships of influence, (especially within queer social spaces where many of us carry trauma and damage that can go unprocessed for years which then can manifest in cliques and furthering hurt if unaddressed), what we sacrifice to avoid ostracization and fit in, the ways we face abuse weaponized within social spaces, and the depths of self we must face and explore to find peace, healing and freedom.
The comic was set to end with a house party gone horribly wrong, some of the vampires realizing how far they had taken overt violence and stepping back more, Denjis making the active choice to continue and that he was entitled to the violence he caused due to the violence caused to him, and facing permanent ramifications from Carrion for a choosing continued extreme violence. I wanted to show that violence is a choice and so is being better and growing, The girls grow up to be creative and free young women who are able to come into their own self love and confidence despite the pressures of adolescence, and Sid finds peace in himself and the new life he’s able to face and coming to peace with violence he and others had faced, being able to move on and start anew. I would like to eventually remake this comic as a finished graphic novel.
Comic is rated PG-16
Warning: Body horror, violence, mild gore, blood, psychological abuse, stalking, emetophobia, disturbing imagery
