Eric July's Saints and Sinners Anthology: YouTube Creators Join Rippaverse Comics

Eric July recently announced Saints and Sinners #1, a 100-page anthology from Rippaverse Comics featuring stories by YouTube creators like HeelvsBabyface, Drunk 3PO (Jay David), MauLer (Callum Edmunds), The Critical Drinker (Will Jordan), and the Soska Sisters, alongside Eric himself. This project brings fresh voices to comics, exploring fan-favorite characters like Ingrid Valdez and new additions to the Rippaverse universe. I discuss how this anthology represents a unique opportunity for new talent, the evolving comic book industry, and the potential for a comic book renaissance driven by independent creators. Learn how platforms like YouTube are opening doors for artists and writers, with examples like Michael Montenat, who went from fan art to drawing Bloodruth. Join the conversation about the future of comics and the importance of fun, engaging storytelling.
