A Beat Comics Original: Failing to Quit by Daniel McCloskey!
Welcome back to part two of Failing to Quit! In this six part webcomic, readers learn how a dyslexic kid on the verge of failing English went to college for writing and eventually got a book deal.
Cloud Town, McCloskey’s debut graphic novel, comes out in April from Abrams’ Amulet line. He created this short series of autobio comics to tell the story of how Cloud Town came to be, and we’re proud to publish them for the first time here on The Beat.
McCloskey is the founder of the Cyberpunk Apocalypse writers project, and an employee at Mission Comics in San Francisco. He’s also a second generation cartoonist: his father is Toon Books author Kevin McCloskey.
McCloskey dedicated the first strip, which was posted on February 2nd, 2022 (“World Read Aloud Day”) to his sixth grade teacher. The Beat has heard that the comic has become popular in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, where Mr. Hartle lived.
Without further ado, direct from Stately Beat Manor to Kutztown, PA, here is the third part of Failing to Quit!
