​Mars Heyward is a comic artist, storyboarder, character designer, and animator living in Portland, OR. Currently working on the ongoing comic series Long Exposure. Their favorite thing to draw is big weird teeth.

Long Exposure

Long Exposure is my personal comic project which I write and draw full-time. The story revolves around a nerd and his bully who are forced together for a school project. They accidentally get superpowers, and eventually fall in love. It deals with heavy themes such as trauma and abusive parents.

Please consider supporting me on Patreon so I can continue to make Long Exposure!

RIDE OR DIE

Ride or Die is my next comic project set to begin after Long Exposure's conclusion. The story centers around Lucky, an ambitionless 20-something with a broken family who wishes he could learn more about the mother he lost as a child. After discovering his mother's forgotten muscle car, he fixes it with the help of his hot-headed, former-crush named Vick and is launched into the world of street racing in an effort to learn more about her. But what they don't know is there's something demonic lurking under the hood of the mysterious car, something fueled by revenge... and gasoline.
