I cannot resist the siren song of Kelly + Mattia de Iulis content, in any form. (Also very excited for Kelly + Meredith McClaren content!)

I have bought and read all your work. I was eagerly waiting and hoping that you will do something on substack. Dream come true! Can’t wait to read these new comics from you.

Btw I don’t have any social media. So I hope this is the right place to tell you how much I was blown away by the first arc of >koff< Eisner-winning >koff< BLACK WIDOW. You took a trope that was used against female characters so often in really vile manner and showed everyone “this is how it’s done while kicking all kinds of ass”. Really fantastic stuff.

Also I totally read all of Yelena’s line in Florence Pugh’s voice! Can’t wait to read the next arc.

Fariha - this is exactly the kind of place for these comments - and THANK YOU SO MUCH. That is certainly a lot of what we were trying to do with that story and I'm so glad you got that from it. Most people did, but a few didn't seem to get what we were doing, and I always feel a bit bad when that happens. Thanks so much for reading/supporting my work! <3

Well I finally found where all the cool kids are! Can’t wait to win that Gambit and Rogue! 🤣 🤣 (just putting out the good luck vibes!!)

But in all seriousness- I’m honored to be here, and though there are lots and lots of substacks- this is the only one I’ve gone all-in on (so far lol). Thanks for putting it together! Can’t wait to see what’s next!!!!!

There will be some information about this in the FAQ. I hope that will go up today, might be tomorrow.
