Infinite Wheatpaste Vol 2 – Universe. Sol. Remote. by L. Pidge
(out May 2026, funding March)
This science fiction graphic novel follows an ensemble cast of characters through time, space, dimensions, spirituality, and everyday life.
An android monk and a newly minted goddess go on spiritual walkabouts. An human-ape hybrid navigates domestic life, parenting, and neighbors. Monsters and aliens seem to crash in wherever they are least expected.
These interconnected stories are set on the edges the galaxy and human experience.
“L. Pidge has an amazing talent of making galaxy-wide adventures feel personal and relatable. These simultaneously epic and cosy stories are a personal favourite.” – Ricky Miller.
Q&A!
Ricky Miller: We’re very excited about your new graphic novel. Can you talk a little about what it’s about?
Pidge: Infinite Wheatpaste Vol. 2 : Universe. Sol. Remote. follows an ensemble cast of characters through time, space, dimensions, spirituality, and everyday life. An android monk and a newly minted goddess go on spiritual walkabouts. An human-ape hybrid navigates domestic life, parenting, and neighbors. Monsters and aliens seem to crash in wherever they are least expected.
Ricky Miller: What was your inspiration for writing this book?
Pidge: This comic draws from 20th century science fiction, a touch of 19th century ghost stories, and a lot of folklore. My favorites of those stories feature regular people who have a knack for digging themselves deeper into the depths of the unknown. Infinite Wheatpaste is a bit like that. Every character, human or not, reaches past themselves because at their core they are insatiably curious, a very human quality, no matter what species you are.
Ricky Miller: Tell us about how you made the art for your graphic novel.
Pidge: I write, then thumbnail every issue. Everything is by hand, including the lettering. I do digital clean up, and my spouse and colorist, Chase Hutchison, does digital color, often using scans of physical collagraph (or texture) prints we have made. I like being a part of comic making traditions by keeping it as analogue as possible.
Ricky Miller: What was the most exciting part for you of making this book?
Pidge: For me, collaborating with my spouse is the best way to spend the summers and bring this comic to life. I also think this comic shows a lot of personal growth for me as a cartoonist over all but especially when it comes to drawing physical comedy.
