A Black journalist in New York goes on the run from the police after publishing secret documents from a gene editing company. Written by Alfredo Gil and Illustrated by Mojo Wang, Hachimoji is a story about identity in a hectic world, power as it corrupts, and justice for the truth.
In over 100 full color pages, Volume 1 introduces Jamie and his mismatched friends who are unified in rebelling but divided in a purpose. We dive into the corporate beast determined to track them down while plagued by infighting. In this painstakingly crafted vision of 2042, our genes hold the key to our power.
A writer, publisher, and mad scientist based in New York City.

When it's done! We're only two people rn with other full-time jobs and community leadership roles so everything takes longer than planned. But we are so close to publishing and can't wait to share this with you :)
I feel ya, there's too many scams, grifters, and cringe crypto bros on the internets. I want to give ownership of this company to the fans and local non-profits in our Resources section. The only way to do both is with (carbon neutral) blockchain records. Before we do anything, we're sending a survey with our book launch with more info to see if our readership likes this idea.
Both! You can choose at the pre-order link :)
