Meet the Cast of High Support Needs!
High Support Needs is a comic about autistic super heroes (NOT about how autism is a super power). As an autistic writer and artist I am often disappointed by the shallow and often damaging portrayals of autistic people in popular media. I wanted to harness my skill set to give my fellow autistics the representation they deserved. Autistic stories told from an autistic voice. This comic is many things, but primarily it is an indictment of a society that uplifts disabled people for inspiration porn while refusing to accommodate our actual support needs (we’re less inspiring when we have our needs met and don’t need to struggle through with a positive attitude and outlook on life.) The first issue is out now and you can download it for FREE by clicking the “free comic” link at the top of this page, but I thought it would be appropriate to write a blog post introducing you to the super hero team!
