Southard has written comics such as Villains Seeking Hero, Midnight Western Theatre, Louis Southard's Terrifying Tales to Keep to Yourself, Midnight Western Theatre: Witch Trial, The Blackout Bombshell and more. Currently Louis is running a campaign on Zoom for his comic Comics Are Dying: The Comic.
Comics Are Dying: The Comic
For the better part of a century, people have said that comic books are dying. Crisis after crisis, the comic book industry has survived and lives to this day. So, to celebrate its harrowing journey into the 21st century, a satirical OGN about the history of comic books has taken shape. Introducing the ironically named Comics Are Dying: The Comic - a brief history and celebration of the comic book industry!
Curated and written by Louis Southard, a 24 year old comic book writer, the book is about the history of comic books using one-page short story comics with a new artist for every page. The main goal was to create a diverse team of over 100 people featuring a collective of established as well as up-and-coming artists from all walks of life for this. Comics Are Dying: The Comic exists to create a fun, educational, tongue-in-cheek, parodic, and optimistic book to help attract new readers, give artists jobs, and help comic book stores. With your support, we can make this book a reality and spread some great art into the world.

Their comic The Cabinet debuted in February from Image Comics. In the vibrant, tongue-in-cheek adventure series, atypical teen Avani and midwestern jock Trent teleport across a post-Cold War landscape to collect bizarre relics. Why? Well, because they need to summon the arcane powers of a resplendent 17th-century cabinet to fix a teeny-tiny mistake the last time Avani used it... unleashing an ancient evil from its prison and accidentally slaughtering her parents.
The third issue hits shelves on April 10 with a fourth coming May 15 and a trade paperback debuting in October.
