So, a couple of years ago John Jennings and I collaborated on a thing. We illustrated a very short story featuring Newton Prince, a free African living in pre-revolutionary colonial America that was on the side of the British. Colonial Comics: New England 1750-1775 Edited by Jason Rodriguez Published by Fulcrum Publishing Available for commissions.
