We’re Still Here: A Trans Anthology Comic “ID’d”

Comic page, a transmasc individual walks through an LCBO (Canada's government owned liquor store). They walk through the aisles lined with wine bottles. Their phone begins to vibrate and we see it's "Theo" with a photo that shows these two are twins.
Our protagonist picks up the phone: Hey bro. Yeah, they have it. Anything else? They pause and we do not hear what Theo is saying but it takes our protagonist off guard. They respond: Uh! No, I haven't seen it. They're now very nervous and sweaty but walk up to the cash. Still on the phone they say: When I get home I'll help you look for it. Yeah. Okay. Bye. The cashier deadpan asks: You got ID? Our protagonist looks nervously away and then back to the cashier with a fake smile. They say: Y-yeah! One sec! In their wallet, they have their Ontario Driver's License which shows an old photo that no longer looks like our short haired, sideburned protagonist. The name reads "Diana Jolie Archer" and the sex is "F". However, they pull out a second ID from behind it that looks more like our protagonist and reads "Theodore Joel Archer" with the sex being "M", the implied missing object from the phone conversation. The cashier holds the ID up to our protagonist and okay's it. Our main character sighs with relief as they leave the store with a paper bag. They say: It's only for one more week. As they anticipate their new ID to come in.

A while back I was in the anthology “We’re Still Here”, and now I’ve been given permission to post my full comic. It’s a story I’ve been playing with for a while, especially since this was written before I changed my name and gender marker on my own ID. The characters featured here might also show up again soon, so look out for them~

Two traditional pieces I did and mailed out for two kickstarters I was apart of!

The “We’re Still Here: Trans Anthology” where I did a 3 page story about two very old characters of mine! If you’re in Toronto you can pick up the book at the Glad Day Book Store! Big thanks to the person who wanted me to draw them something from the kickstarter!

The second was a gift for the writer of Circadia. I did the art for the third volume of Circadia and had a lot of fun with it! I’ll be sure to let everyone know when this becomes available in stores!

I have a story in this really great kickstarter and it would be super cool if everyone took a look at it!
I did a three page comic for it and it means a lot to me. The anthology is exclusively by trans people about trans people!

We’re Still Here: An All-Trans comics anthology

Some of you might remember this post? Yeah it was for this comic!
