    Constructing Comics - Episode 371 - JM Brandt

    Let’s start 2026 off right with a comic that’s raising awareness and money for a worthy cause: our freedom from fascism here in the US. JM Brandt is a comics creator, writer, and curator currently promoting his new Kickstarter for the anthology Horror Not Hate which is live now. It’s a scary time and JM is fighting back with comics by building solidarity amongst his peers to bring us an anthology full of incredible art and stories based around resisting the current regime plaguing the USA and the world at large. JM sheds light on the charitable goals of the anthology along with his creative process in this interview. It’s inspiring and there’s hope it’ll inspire you to back the Kickstarter and join the growing resistance. You can check out the Kickstarter and JM’s other work below.
