Pride High with a Heart

Tommy Roddy, the creator of Pride High, has joined the board of directors of Sequential Heart, a community service organization dedicated to providing youth-friendly comics to programs and shelters serving homeless youth. Originally conceived in response to the dual problems of wasted materials – an enormous number of comics are pulped or discarded every year – and chronic under funding of homeless youth programs, Sequential Heart is the brainchild of Rachel Edidin, an assistant editor at Dark Horse Comics, and Dean Trippe, a freelance illustrator and cartoonist and creator of the all-ages webcomic Butterfly.
