Johnny Wander is Yuko Ota (artist) & Ananth Hirsh (writer), creating a variety of comics that they publish to johnnywander.com. We first became known for our autobio comics,
but most recently we've been posting Lucky Penny, a book-length story about a plucky girl with exceptionally bad luck. She's also a big fan of romance novels:
We have work in print! We've self-published several books:
and have worked together & separately freelancing w/ a wide range of publishers:

You'll notice that one of those lists is much bigger than the other! In the past we've thrown ourselves into freelance and have come to the realization: for us, industry comics don't pay the bills. Over-committing to both freelance and personal work is also the major reason Yuko has been dealing with years of chronic wrist pain.
Since 2009, the majority of our income has always come from our self-published work and the support of our readers, and we'd like to return to that! In 2015, we want to come back to our personal work with renewed focus! By supporting our Patreon, you're giving us the flexibility we need to develop and grow as creators, and by lessening Yuko's workload into a reasonable 8-hour workday, her wrist will have time to heal.
This is also a good chance to share something fun and exciting with you, our readers! Let's hang out and make some good comics!
