Description

Hello everybody, we’re joined today by Izy, the creator behind the BL webcomic REEDS.

We had a really insightful discussion with Izy, and to preview the episode, Izy talks about his love for visual storytelling and how it has led him down the path of creating comics, discusses the ongoing research he’s done to create an accurate representation of Hmong people and what it’s like to see so many people interesting in learning about it through his comic, and shares his data-centric approach to growing his IP and his simple but effective philosophy of failing forward that we were inspired by.
