I’m debating attending to be part of a panel discussing the project, but I’m not gonna lie, as a Canadian, visiting the USA isn’t high on my to-do list; things are a little pear-shaped down there at the moment, if I can state the glaringly obvious. Still—tempting. I love New York City to my core. One cool thing, and sorry to bury the lede, but it looks like I’m going to be the inker as well as the writer on this joint, an idea I didn’t float but was happy to respond to in the affirmative. Very excited to get started. More details to come!”
