There's a Kickstarter out right now for a cartoon called Wheels and Roses!
It's a queer Black Sailor Moon meets roller derby coming of age story, made by cartoonists who worked on Craig of the Creek, Hair Love, Bleach, Castlevania, and more!
They've hit their goal today, but they also have some really cool stretch goals:
Please check it out and support if you can - there's less than two days left!

When you try to explain roller derby, it seems the first thought is that everyone’s a hardnut and all we want to do is maim each other, (we do, but only a little bit). But I’ll never quite believe the kindness and patience I’ve been shown by the team.
This has been said so many times, but it’s never saying “don’t be a wuss”.
It’s saying:
We’re your people.
Take up space.
Do your thing.
Have patience and keep trying.
Now get back up, hit me and don’t apologise for it 🤣
This has been said at training so many times that I had to draw it out. I may even have to print it and stick it up💖 I’d love to eventually draw all the good and funny advice I’ve ever been given whilst skating.

im going crazy thinking about my idea for a cod women roller derby au
i play roller derby and i literally just finished practice so its fresh in my brain rn
also theyre all on the same team because i want them to be besties ok
laswell is the captain of the glam grenades (yes i know the name is corny, derby team names usually are lmaoo), and her wife coaches the corresponding junior team. laswell’s derby name is watcher, and her number is 01. she usually plays as a blocker, but she’ll pivot sometimes.
farah is almost solely a jammer. her derby name is farah scare-‘em (which again, i know its corny but all derby names are 😭). she’s a speed DEMON, and she’s insane at jumps. if she’s jamming against you, you’re barely even gonna land a hit on her. she’s jumping around on her toe stops and squeezing around blockers like she’s dancing. alex goes to all of the team’s practices and bouts, and he’s practically drooling the whole time like “holy shit thats my badass girlfriend”
valeria is usually a pivot. her name is slammin’ scorpion (referencing that one line where alejandro calls her a scorpion 🤭), and when i say slammin, i mean it. shes one of those blockers that gets penalties constantly. she is VICIOUS. she send jammers flying when she hits them. she has a lot of pent up anger, ok? god forbid a woman has hobbies.
roze is a blocker for sure. she’s sturdy as hell and it takes a lot to take her down. her derby name is ragin’ roze and shes a bad bitchhhh!!! i like to think shes pretty tall, so sneaking around her is a no go with those long legs. she also seems like the type to manhandle her teammates a lot. like if the jammer is moving to the opposite side, shes yelling “out!” and just yanking the other blockers over.
callisto is a blocker too. she prefers to play as a point because she’s a control freak, and while she trusts her teammates, she prefers to be able to see the jammer. this is a really stupid joke but i think it would be funny if her derby name was lady liberty because she’s from france and moved to the US lmaoo
i feel like stiletto’s derby name would just be stiletto. its cool enough on its own lmao. she also gives blocker to me, and i feel like shes the type to get penalties a lot and then get insubordination penalties for giving the refs sass.
nova feels like a jack of all trades to me. i think her derby name would be nova, and i feel like she would be one of those players that just throws caution to the wind and charges in with no hesitation.
kleo is greek and i also imagine her to be pretty tall, so i think her derby name would be something like amazon lol. i feel like shed be a pretty aggressive blocker. she is NOT letting that jammer past, so much so that she sometimes gets stop block penalties.
uhh yeah thats all the brainrot i have lmao. i might draw them 😏😏
