Why I turned tax problems into a comic book

You walk past the envelope again.

You know it’s from the IRS. You tell yourself you’ll open it after dinner.

Then tomorrow.

I know that routine. I went eight years without filing. The longer I waited, the harder it became to tell anyone how bad things had gotten.

That silence is part of what I wanted to put on the page when I created THE TAX UNDERWORLD.

If you’re facing an immediate tax problem, you can reach my office at 909-570-1103 or book appointment at CallTaxEA.com.

You don’t have to finish the story before asking for help.

Issue #1 is called “The Vulture Strikes at Night.” 

The Bank Levy Vulture is fictional. The fear behind him is real. Rent money. Payroll. The money you need to keep your family going.

A comic gives that fear a face. It gives you a story to follow when another explanation full of tax jargon might never get read.

Here’s what I want you to recognize: the person putting off those letters may already know there’s a problem. What they need is a way to start facing it.

Someone helped me do that. Now that’s the work I do for others.

And if someone you care about has been carrying a tax problem in silence, forward this email. It might help them start the conversation.
