I’m excited to finally share my contribution to the @natmzine! The leftover sale is still open HERE! Go check it out!!
(I always wondered about the old guards between the movies, and how they went from antagonists to allies in the final film. Cecil in particular has a very interesting story to me, which I had fun exploring with my comic!)
Here’s my preview for the @natmzine !!
I did a short comic on about the old guards and I’m a lil proud of it. There’s a lot of other super cool stuff avaible with the zine so please check it out!!
The start of my lil Henchboyfriends comic!
Its been a sort of experiment for me as I try to get a handle on this whole making comics thing.
🎶There's a God-awful shitty feeling of dread in my heart And I can't seem to change my attitude but I can change my shirt, 'Cause you know how actually, at times, that can be a good start...🎶 When I'm stuck in a particularly bad rut I find myself so overwhelmed by all the things I ought to do- that I end up doing nothing at all. And in particularly bad times I seem more susceptible to intrusive thoughts, but it's nothing dark and scary to me. It's just kinda chill and normal to me at this point. I wanted to tackle this topic in a non-shocking and normalized way, as I hope that by talking openly about this kind of stuff more, in a less taboo or romantic way, we can help each other out more.

Also because I’m incapable of drawing people without writing a whole backstory, their names are Kevin and Daryl.
Just realized I never posted this additional drawing I did when I was trying figure out their character designs!
This is a real thing that used to happen in France! Morgues would have unidentified bodies put on display for the public to help identify them- by the late 1800s though it became something of a spectacle then anything practical. It’s an interesting look at how people have generally been fascinated by the dead as long as, well, as long as there’s been death!
Narration of this came from the podcast Death in the Afternoon, ep.16, as performed by Sarah Chavez. She does a much better job explaining this than I, so I would definitely recommend checking them out if you’re interested in learning more!
In May of 1816 Mary Shelley and her friends went away to Lake Geneva, Switzerland, for a holiday. The weather was so dreadful during that time however- most of Europe was experiencing a “Year Without Summer”- that the friends chose to remain indoors and have a little writing challenge among themselves.
It was during this time that Shelley created her classic gothic-horror many consider as the beginnings of modern sci-fi: “Frankenstein”
A little comic for class I used as an excuse to explore a revelatory moment from Sonja's high school years.
It was by total coincidence that used only the colours of the lesbian flag for this oops!

#relatable am I right?
Get it? Cuz they’ve got two right hands- ok I’ll stop now
I collaborated with a classmate for this assignment, and though they weren’t an artist themselves, I think they did pretty good on the lineart and shading, it has a nice soft quality to it. We had to make a short comic using the lyrics of a song as the only dialogue and “Everything Stays” is such a beautiful short song that I knew it’d be perfect.
It’s meant to be a complete little story, but also a bit open as well. Who are these people? Who are they to each other? What happened, what changed? I have my own ideas of course, but I wanted to let other people get to use their own headcanons :)
Here’s some of the development for it:
(the names are Nina & Bonnie)
