Euphoria is a semi-autobiographical short comic about how ecstatic and strange young love can make us feel—especially queer love, which many of us grew up thinking we would never find or didn’t deserve.
Originally created for the anthology Crush: First Love, New Talent (Stacked Deck Press), edited by Tara Madison Avery and Viktor Kerney, the book did not meet its funding goal and was never printed. Still, Daniel wanted to put the story out into the world.
To honor the original purpose of Pride, Daniel donates every dollar made from sales of the digital copy to the Audre Lorde Project, a Community Organizing Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two-Spirit, Trans and Gender Non-Conforming (LGBTSTGNC) People of Color Communities based in New York City.
The story was later featured in We Suck at Comics: Volume 2 - Coloring Outside The Lines.
