International Woman of Mystery. . .

Hello Friends!
As some may have figured out am not exactly the best at posting on a regular basis.  It has been more than a couple of months, to say the least, since the last time I have found the right combination of motivation and creativity/necessity to create new SuperCrip comic.  Without any kind of notice, in the last month or two, Supercrip has become somewhat of a Danish star, calling her name from across the great pond.  I was contacted by the Storm P Museum in Copenhagen asking if they could include a super Crip comic in their exhibition about satire and humor in relation to crossing borders.  It was and is super exciting to be asked to be included. OF COURSE, I said yes!
Security, Security Grab That Girl! is now officially being shown at the Museum from now until September.  That is 4 months on a Danish wall YA'LL!

In other great news, I was also asked to contribute a comic to REACH of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex quarterly newsletter.  Here is the first comic that will appear in the spring issue of the REACH newsletter!

Supercrip comic: Resources for Independent Hairstyling, REACH Special Issue spring 2016.  Created by Charlie tree Hughes. Girl in a wheelchair with long hair looking outwards towards the reader.  Through the comic she describes a 5 step process of putting your hair up with a vacuum cleaner nozzle.

Security! Security! Grab that girl!

[Image: Colorful picture of a girl in a wheelchair being pushed through airport security with other passengers waiting in line behind all staring at the girl being pushed.  Security officer asks, "Can she walk through the body scanner". ]

Ok, so I've been on a short hiatus, well one month, sorry about that.  It's been a crazy adventure and I was able to travel from Texas to Atlanta to present SuperCripComic at the Critical Juncture Conference at Emory University.  It was awesome getting to share my comic with new people, and meet some readers.

If you can't tell, I was inspired by my trip in this Issue of SuperCrip.  Airports are certainly not the friendliest or most accessible places for people with disability, with some airports better than others *cough* (Atlanta)

It is not the question the security officer asks, but rather who he asks the question too.  Some people who use wheelchairs maybe able to take a few steps "through the scanner", but they can also most likely find appreciation of being addresses like a normal person.  This erasure of individual happens in conjunction of being the "spectacle" in the line, that no one can take there eyes off.

FOOOTBALLLLL!

New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year Everyone!

I thought it was the appropriate time of year to talk about disability and exercise with all the talk of year Resolutions that everyone seems to make.  I haven't actually made any, but I do hope to be more organized and plan to figure out my goals for my comic and other art projects.  I'm excited for 2013.  "make it rain"!

Dun nun nun nun nah . . .

This weeks blog is a tribute to my favorite cartoon when I was a wee one.  It's easy to see why a little crip-kid would love this show.  Although the Inspector was clumsy and limited by his physical attributes, he had any tool to immediately help him in any given situation.  I still want that jacket.

SC's at it again...

As "Crips" we get asked all sorts of silly questions.  This weeks post is in response to: "Were you born in a wheelchair?"  

Perceptive Perspective

Happy Friday Night Everyone!  

SC: Graffiti Ninja

Hello Everybody, 
This weeks comic isn't really a comic but a piece of graffiti SC created on the side of a pretty tall building in Dallas.  This maybe a "tallTale" but in my own opinion, it would be pretty cool if true.  

This is definitely a more serious tone than I usually present, but sometimes seriousness is called for.   Although I am not an artist who likes to explain my work, (mostly because it's just sillyness) I would like to say one thing.  Graffiti= rebellion against status quot.

Hello All!
Just thought I should mention that no animals or people were harmed in the making of this months comic.  Although we were not able to take our AFP yet, it will happen. And when it does, it's gonna be spectacular...

Thanks for reading!

Thinking About My Future: More Talks With Moo

I have to say that I'm glad this comic popped into my head.  This is one of the first times I have drawn many people with disabilities at once, it may become a trend.  Have a great week!

Someones Idea of a Good Time

Job Hunting: A Drive Up The Wall

So no colorful buses in this one, but it is 3 pages! It took a while to get the story out.  And while it could have taken many more pages of babbling about the interview, recording each statement, I chose to just highlight some points of interest.

Thanks so much for reading!

Megabus Megabust

So yes, I do realize that the date is august but the comic says "July Issue", but due to personal life it has taken some time to get it all finished.  Plus, deciding to do the partial color also takes more time than one would think.  I also would like to mention that Megabus does have accessible buses, you just have to call them up and let them know when your wanting to travel.  So I've been told.

I wrote this definition a long time ago.  Although I appreciate it's frankness, this is still a working definition; as  all definitions are.
