Overview of the project

District Comics is an online comics anthology that will feature stories about the history of Washington, D.C., from its beginnings to contemporary times. The site will be open to the public. We want schools, libraries, comics readers and everyone else to visit the site to read some really cool stories pertaining to the nation's capital. 

A little info about me: I'm Matt Dembicki, a comics creator in the Washington, D.C., area. My works--both solo projects and collaborations--include Xoc, Mr. Big, Brewmaster's Castle and Spadefoot, among others. Most recently, I edited and contributed to Trickster: Native American Tales: A Graphic Collection, which received the 2011 Aesop Prize and was a best anthology nominee for the 2011 Eisner Awards.
