PRISM SPOTLIGHTS
SAY HELLO TO OUR LATEST FEATURE: PRISM SPOTLIGHTS!
There is simply a crazy amount of insanely talented LGBTQAI comics creators in this industry, and we have rather ambitious plans to interview each and every one of them over time in our latest feature to the Prism Comics website. First up, Prism’s Queer Press Grant chair Jon Macy talks to two recent QPG recipients: 2013 recipient Hazel Newlevant and this year’s recipient Dave Davenport. Are you an LGBTQAI creator with an exciting new project to discuss? We may want to spotlight you next! Or maybe you have a favorite creator you’re dying to learn more about. Send us a message on our CONTACT PAGE, and give us some details. We look forward to hearing from you!
