At one of my local comic shops, The Dark Side Comics and Games, they had a cool event to meet a comic creator! Known as Wade, "Cito," Wheelington III, it was really fun to swing by the shop and be introduced to him! Cito is a skilled artist, with his style able to vary between Japanese Manga in appearance or American-styled comics. He has spent many years living in Japan and is bilingual, in fact! He gave me a business card with a link to his website, or you can check him out on Instagram as well. Also, he is working on a project examining the impact of the character Isaiah Bradley from, "Truth: Red, White, and Black," a fantastic comic that had some of its ideas used in the MCU with actor Carly Lumby. This endeavor is titled, "The Isaiah Bradley Project," and you can learn more about it at this website.
It was exciting to meet Cito, and we exchanged information so that he can keep me updated on all his work! I look forward to reporting on and/or reviewing any of his manga or American-style comic creations!
