GZLA

Connie Hernandez (he/him/his) is a cartoonist and community organizer from Chicago, Illinois. Seeing comics as an opportunity for radical re-imagination of the state of the world, Connie draws from his personal relationships between family and friends, as well as his political experience organizing in Chicago. His current projects are middle grade graphic novels, such as his background illustrations in Johnnie Christmas’ Swim Team, and Connie’s own upcoming debut graphic novel. His dream projects range from silly middle grade books to weird adult fiction, comedy, and horror.
