Harrow

Writer. Artist.Operator. Problem.

I make comics and the machines that sell them. Everything I publish lives on-chain: the art, the rules, the receipts. No image host. No committee. No admin key waiting to be abused.

Why any of this exists

Somebody has to answer the call.

I'm a first responder. The job is showing up on the worst day of a stranger's life and being useful anyway. Then the shift ends, and all of it comes home with you.

Hellbox is where it goes. Satire, ink and machinery that can't be bent. I draw what everybody in the room already knows and nobody will say. I build the systems so nobody, including me, can quietly change the rules afterward.

That's the sincere part. It won't happen again.

The work

Two live projects on two chains, one in the vise. Every number on this page can be checked on-chain.

01 · PUBLISHING

Hellbox Comix

An underground publishing house. The chain is under the floorboards.

Comics pressed straight onto the chain and owned outright by the reader. The press counts every copy, stamps it, and destroys whatever goes unpressed. No reprints. No revisions. Nothing seized.

  • FlagshipSciVive by Richard Heart. 5,555 copies, free, one per wallet. Written by Richard Heart, pressed by Hellbox.
  • The Press216 copies per native issue. Press marks from HELLBOUND (6) to STANDARD (180), and defects no one chooses.
  • The rulesNothing edited. Nothing seized. Nothing asks permission. Written into the contract.
  • ChainsPulseChain and Robinhood Chain.

02 · ON-CHAIN GAME

Quad Grifters

4,444 blanks cast. 2,644 pressed. Proof of Neon was the color. This is Proof of Life.

Art you can lose. Call a Quad for 0.0004 ETH and its owner has 44 hours to answer, or you take their best color. Leave a Quad unanswered for 444 hours and it dies, and its obituary is written on-chain with the killer's wallet in it.

  • RenderedFully on-chain. No image host, ever.
  • MachinesHart robs the rich and pays the last lights. The Press keeps the obituaries.
  • ChainRobinhood Chain. Traded on OpenSea.
A letterpress chase locked up in iron: type in the middle, dead Quads as neon furniture, a T-key standing in a quoin
03 · IN THE VISE

Imposeimpose.press

The dead become furniture.

Seven bodies go into the Pot. Relics, Quitters, any mix. One comes out locked up in iron. It's a vault. It holds what you own and holds it against anyone who comes for it. The quoins are its guardians. Only your key turns them.

Every rule it keeps is type on the plate. Set in iron, readable by anyone.

For people deciding whether to bet on me

What I build

Art direction, writing, contracts and the machinery around them, designed and run by one operator.

01

On-chain art

Pieces that draw themselves from contract data. No image host to rot, no server to switch off.

02

Games with teeth

Rules enforced by the contract, not a moderator. Timers, penalties and deaths that nobody can reverse.

03

Publishing systems

Press runs, rarity, sealing, royalties and burn. A book as an object, not a rental.

04

Vaults with guardians

Accounts with guardians, passkeys, spending limits and timed recovery. Attacked on purpose before anyone else gets the chance.

05

Worlds, not storefronts

Sites you explore instead of scroll. The lair, the Press room, the radio. Production value is the point.

06

Characters and canon

A world with a bible, a voice and consequences. Hart, the Press, the Grifters and one very tired operator.

Collect

The work is live. Hellbox and the Quads are open. Impose is next.

Commission

Art, a world, or a contract system with a spine. If it needs to survive people, I'm interested.
