I will support Erik and Savage Dragon until the day I die or the book is canceled whichever comes first. But as a black man I really hate the title "Chiggers." Just the title though and not the amazing people behind it.

I think I must be dyslexic. I saw Larsen and my brain automatically put an Erik in front of it. I apologize to Hope and meant no offense.

It's also worth pointing out that Larson didn't invent the word "chiggers" or anything. They're parasites, and they are featured in the book.
Speaking of the book, I found it underwhelming. I'm sure it plays well to the intended audience though, I just didn't get anything out of it. Or Larson's Gray Horses for that matter. Just not my cup of tea I suppose. I find her art very interesting, but in those 2 books I've not come across anything that elevates her past the masses in my opinion.
