It's a pity that thrift store records are $8+ these days because I found a real banger yesterday
#SDCC They came in the mail! I will be exceptionally easy to find at this year's Comic-Con!
San Diego Comic-Con! I'm coming your way! I'll be wandering around the show floor (and lurking in the shadowy alleys of the city), but you'll be able to find me at signings and panels listed here:
Part of the discussion. They like my characters' tears. Well, here's an answer: I stole them from Mike Mignola's blood drips!

Oil & Vinegar Don't Live Near Them Wow, it works!
At C2E2 this year I was at the end of our row, and about every 10 minutes I would hear someone very quietly say my name. I'd look up, and it would never be someone talking to me, it was always someone just reading it off my banner, usually pointing it out to their child who is also named Zander.
C2E2: ACCOMPLISHED! It was a great show, saw lots of friends, sold lots of comics. I'm coming back with light bags, which was my primary goal! See ya next year!
C2E2 commission number 3: COOKIE MONSTER??
Ok, C2E2 day 2! Come and talk comics with me at E-10!
C2E2 commission number one: SPIDEY SENSE!!
C2E2 is almost here! Fellow Twin Cities cartoonist @bdepillis.bsky.social and I will be taking the ol' Borealis train down to Chicago to inflict our comic books on the world. Come get some commissions, prints, comics, and more at table E-10 in Artists Alley!
Enter a third wolf, Frank Cho, who is watching intently.
I also have full runs of the eight issues of my Image comics series SLEEP, with the first 2 issues reprinted in a limited edition sketch cover! Choose what monster you think our poor protagonist Jonathan turns into when he falls asleep! $100 for the whole shebang!
C2E2 is coming up! I'll be in Artist Alley, table E-10 (as in, make sure you haven't "E-10" lunch before you read my horror comic books!) and I'll be selling Kaijumax, Sleep, Heck, and even some Top 10! You want commissions? I got those too. 6x8, watercolor, 1 character, $180.
Heck yeah-- Sleep #8 gets a shout out in The Beat's Top Comics To Buy for this week!
Incredibly, I did a sketch of one of them just a couple months ago!
Tomorrow! I'll be at Hot Comics in Richfield MN signing the final issue of my image series SLEEP! Get the alt cover by @geneha.com or my regular old dirtbag cover! I'll be doing sketches and commissions, including the sketch cover edition of issues one and two! Come say hello! 3 to 6pm!
