Hello people!

I am here to tell you wonderful news. If you follow me in tumblr, twitter or facebook, you might already know this. But here it goes:

I have started working for the LINE webtoons site as a featured creator! I used to be a professinal comic book artist but now I'm a professinal webcomic artist too! And I love it so much! My comic was launched two days ago and there's now three episodes online for you guys to read. So hey, go and read the comic, here's a link for you:

>>LINK TO THE IMMORTAL NERD COMIC<<

My comic is is a mixture of humor and sci-fi. It's a story about Nokia, who has just become immortal due to the new technology. Nokia is lazy and uses their immortality by just laying home browsing the old internet without eating or sleeping and not having to fear death! It's amazing. But it all ends when Nokia's parents decide they have had enough and they want to make Nokia go back to school. This all leads up to Nokia moving away from the space station New Rauma to the planet Earth to study meme archeology!

Also, I advice you, download the LINE webtoon app on your phone/tablet. It makes reading the comics way more fun and easy! I just downloaded it myself and I love how I can use it to read comics in bed when I can't sleep!

I don't know if you have noticed yet, but I have opened myself a Patreon account, where you can get exclusive art and comics that can be seen nowhere else! I have already posted a couple of things in there as a sneak preview, but you know what? This month people will get a 30 page comic about my trip to Sweden for just 5$ a month! You don't have to be a patron for many months, you can just stay for one month and see the exclusive 30 page comic... though in August, I'm going to give you something even cooler; another comic that has never been seen before. I will post the new comics at the beginning of each month, so the 30 paged comic will be online at the start of August.

If you're not interested in getting exclusive comics, you can get exclusive art and sketches for only 2$ a month! Or if you want something more, you can even get zines mailed to your door once every two months for just 20$ a month! You should go to my Patreon page to see the rest of the rewards and see which interest you most!

Okay so I will only be in Chicago, and that's about it, but I will be there during the Chicago Alternative Comics Expo, so maybe some of you will be in town for the event too? I will be coming to Chicago in 2nd June and leaving in 9th June, so I will be there for a week. I'm coming there together with my friends from the feminist comics network Femicomix Finland. We will be taking part in many different events, like a workshop in Women and Children first bookstore and a workshop and a pop-up exhibition in Comfort Station Logan square. If you want more info, here's a link to our facebook event that has all the dates and times: LINK TO FACEBOOK Femicomix Finland also has an exhibitor table in the Chicago Alternative Comics Expo, so the easiest place to find me is there.

I have this text in this deviation too, but I'll put it here as well, because I want it on my front page:


Tosi Huono Yaoi Sarjis

I want to tell you something about my webcomic Tosi Huono Yaoi Sarjis aka THYS. I started drawing it over a year ago, because I was reading this one REALLY badly drawn and written yaoi webcomic and I thought I could make a parody of it. So I did. I didn't tell others it was a parody though, or at least not in english. In my finnish comments I told everyone the comic is a joke, but people who didn't talk english couldn't know it was parody. Well then, one day, just before the one year anniversary of THYS, one blog I totally love The Manifesto On Moral Mansex, posted a couple of pages of THYS and I just had to tell them the comic is actually a parody. So after telling the owner of the blog I admire, I told everyone else too. In THYS first anniversary, I changed the descriptions to tell the comic is in fact a joke and a parody. But even though I told my secret, I'm not going to stop drawing THYS. I love how it makes me laugh and how I can just really fast draw a page and upload it online.

Which leads to the reason why I love THYS so much. I started the comic thinking, I will not sketch the pictures I draw for the comic, no matter how ugly the pictures become. And I try to draw the comic as FAST as I possibly can. Only very seldomly I put a little bit more effort into the pages or chapter covers, just as a present to the readers. But drawing a comic this fast has really taught me a LOT! My inking has become better, my speed in drawing sketches is like twice from what it was a year ago and I find it easier to come up with panel layouts now. I have also learned a lot about making characters. So overall THYS has been a wonderful experience! I have learned so much. And I don't want to stop learning, so I will keep on making THYS pages every day this year! My goal is to draw over 300 pages this year! Let's see how it will go.

[TW: rape]
Also... There's one thing more serious about THYS. Even though it's a parody comic, there's a couple of things I didn't want to make fun of, like the ever so popular rape scenes of THYS. So when I made a rape scene in THYS, I made sure it wasn't fun and it wasn't because of love. It was evil and horrible. And the characters didn't forget the thing just like that and forgive the evil doer. Even though the rape happened in one of the first chapters of THYS, the characters are still processing it and as a survivor myself, I can say, coming from a victim to become a survivor is not easy. That's how I will portray the thing in THYS too. I know it might not be that fun that in a humor comic there's also darker themes, but these are things I want to say to my audience and it's important to me to talk about consent in my comics.
[TW: over]

Another more serious thing about THYS is that I am very serious about all characters being unique personalities. Ofcourse they're also pretty dorky, as they are in a humor comic, but at the same time, I want to show that they're all awesome personalities with their pros and cons. Also in this comic, the people live in my own personal dream, where no-one is questioning them for their gender or sexuality or anything else. They're just accepted for what they are... Well, Jonathan is an excuse, but he's the bad guy, so we're not really going inside his life that much. In this comic, I fulfill my own dream, where people accept each other. I hope the world would be like that and I think reading a comic where you're not erased from the world because of your race/gender/sexuality/anything feels pretty damn good. All in all, even though there's a couple of heavy subjects in the comic, it's still a comic meant to make you smile.

I'm not now saying THYS is the perfect form of a comic art, not at all. THYS is in many ways pretty damn bad comic, but I just wanted to tell you the thoughts I have about it. It's been a fun year drawing THYS. It's not the only comic I've been drawing, it's just the comic I draw when I have free time, but still, it's taught me a lot and even though it's pretty dorky, I still have things I want to say with it.
