Hi! I'm David Mariotte, a comic writer and editor and licensed publishing professional.
I’ve written comics like Transformers Wreckers: Tread & Circuits, The Conjure-Man Dies, Transformers vs. the Terminator, Hanazuki: Full of Treasures, Monster Under the Bed, and other licensed and independent works!
You might know me from my extensive editorial work at IDW Publishing and BOOM! Studios on comics like Transformers, Sonic the Hedgehog, Power Rangers, Dune, Samurai Jack, Godzilla (including the Eisner Award-winning Godzilla 70th Anniversary Special), or original projects like Hello Darkness, Lawful, Profane, Canto, Scarenthood, The Kill Lock, Wynonna Earp, and much more! Or maybe from my freelance editing on books like Princess Royale or the Broken Frontier Award-winning charity comic benefitting the Palestine Red Crescent Society, Samidoon: Comics for a Free Palestine.
This newsletter is a parallel project to my blog and Patreon where I'll share tips from my years making comics, let you know what upcoming releases I worked on, and talk about the things that make me happy and the things that make me incredibly frustrated in these often trying times.
