Anna Sellheim ’16 is working on her web comic Everything Is Fine and helps run Square City Comics, a comic collective in the DC area.
The group at Square City Comics meets up once a month to help each other create and self-publish their original comics. They join up for a weekly online sketch group. They run an anthology together and you will often find them tabling together at conventions. Current membership stands at over 100 members!
Everything is Fine is Anna’s collection of autobio comics. These comics focus on her life-long struggles with anxiety and depression. You can support Anna’s comic work and receive copies of her comics as they come out by subscribing to her Patreon.
Anna is also available as a teacher. Her lecture on emanata, the iconic representations used in comics and cartoons is based on Mort Walker’s The Lexicon of Comicana. In “Fill in the Blank,” she teaches how to create a comic within the confines of strict constraints.
Keep an eye on Anna’s Patreon for news about when her next zine is coming out.
