This was one of the earlier style tests for "From Here and Queer". We wanted to convey a deep and loving relationship between a parent and queer child. I thought about the safety and love I am fortunate enough to feel with my own mother, and how she held me as a child. I hope I was able to convey that sort of softness and tenderness.

Pretty happy with the design for now, it will probably get minor revisions when I actually get to her episode in the comic.

Happy Easter! For such a green time of year, let's check out a comic from the big green herself, She-Hulk! It's the 2004 series from writer Dan Slott, full of comedy, space adventure, and fish murder!

Simultaneously horrified and excited by the WGA writers' and SAG-AFTRA actors' strikes going on now.

Horrified to hear about this proposal (that apparently is very real despite sounding insane) for studios and production companies to pay an extra or a background actor for one day of work, force them to do a motion capture-style scan, and never pay them anything further for the use of their face!

Horrified because delays and bad numbers for comic-book adaptations will slightly hurt comic-book sales.

Excited because long-term? They will win this eventually, and they will get better terms. Better treatment for TV & film writers does trickle down outrageously… outrageously slowly… eventually… to comics writers…

Tagging:

WGA & SAG-AFTRA & OH, that’s RIGHT comics has no guild because of the horrifying way creatives were treated at the birth of the mainstream American comic-book industry…

Fans sometimes ask who are my influences and where do I get my ideas. In this sequence I looked to one of my biggest comics hero Moebius and his character Arzach for inspiration ❤️🙏💪 . . .
