Joshua Luna is a 37-year-old Flippino-American comic artist who has done work for Image Comics and Marvel. While his comics have mostly remained in obscurity to the eyes of the general public, Joshua has found success in making comic styled political cartoons for the “woke” crowd. This has inevitably led to mockery and Joshua screeching at the trolls making edits of his comics.
Joshua’s Comics
Unlike a lot of artcows, Joshua has some background in art. His brother Jonathan is a comic artist as well and he’s worked with Joshua on some comics, leading Joshua to have a Wikipedia page shared with his brother. While they have worked on some comic serieses, neither of them have had movies or TV shows made based on their comics aside from a planned movie likely stuck in development hell and a TV show pilot that wasn’t picked up. Unlike Joshua, his brother tends to keep a much lower profile on social media.
Joshua has however gotten talked about online not for his “professional” comics but for woke political comics that talk about how hard life is being Asian American and how bad white people are. Joshua’s comics manage to be a mix of the extreme attention to detail of a Ben Garrison comic and the whining condescending tone of a Sophie Labelle comic. Did I mention he really hates white people even if they're for the same causes he is?
The one comic that helped Joshua Luna go viral online was a comic he did critiquing how whitey is trying to make Asian PoC like him draw in a very specific manner with a message attached to it saying "Please don't repost or edit my work." His tweet about that comic managed to rack up over 7000+ retweets, and on Tumblr he got 22,719+ notes.

Joshua and the Trolls
Just like Ben Garrison and other notable artcows, Joshua is very paranoid of the trolls and critics of his work as even among his own crowd opinions are divided. Even a year ago he was slapping on his artwork not to repost it (which seems due to the fact that other people who weren't trolls kept reposting his art) but a few months ago he started getting mad at edits of his work as well, along with trolls. His pinned tweet for example is a long meltdown about how some website slandered him over some essay over the Disney movie Mulan which pivoted into how he was being attacked over his comics.

Thanks to Joshua’s newfound fame and mockery, he’s not too thrilled about edits of his comics. Anyone who edits his comics gets blocked on Twitter, but due to the exploitable nature of that comic in particular everyone’s editing it and sending it directly to him most of the time.
This has led to Joshua being angry Twitter isn’t removing trolls making edits of his comics or mocking them and how much he wants them all banned.
