Death : Rebirth
Digital painting of the Phoenix Force and Hope Summers. The Phoenix looms above Hope with its talons extended to strike. Hope is a small figure in the foreground, standing casually with one hand on her hip and a rifle propped up on her shoulder. Text at the bottom of the image reads “Death” in flaming letters of the Krakoan alphabet. Below it in smaller font is text that reads “Rebirth” in the Krakoan alphabet.

When I haven’t made anything in a while, I typically revert to Magik fan art. This one was a fun experiment #XMen #Magik
Digital painting of Magik of the X-Men. She is a white woman with blonde hair in a black superhero costume. Her face is centered at the bottom of the frame and she is looking up at the sky. Above and behind her is a white glowing column with the design of her soul sword on it.

Daily affirmations from Masumi. #ThePowerFantasy
Digital painting of Morishita Masumi from The Power Fantasy. She is a Japanese woman with pink hair. She’s wearing a paint stained white shirt and overalls gathered around her waist. She has her arms down and outstretched while she shouts into the sky. A speech bubble reads, “My monster is fucking awful, but I am okay!” Same as the previous image but with an empty speech bubble.

Decided to draw Spiral doing hot girl shit #XMen #fanart
Digital painting of Spiral from X-Men. She is a white woman with long white hair and six arms. She is wearing a blue sleeveless bodysuit with loose straight leg jeans with large holes cut out of the front to show off her legs. She is standing casually examining her nails on one hand while another pair of arms stretches, a fourth arm rests on her hip, and her last two arms casually grip a katana and a knife.

Perhaps I’m just responding to a story about a guy learning what it’s like to teach kids because I’m a teacher, but I do genuinely think this could be an interesting exploration of Quentin reckoning with his own shittiness as a child. #XSpoilers

One interesting implication of the issue is that the kids know that Quentin sincerely cares about them because they’re running the simulation to distract him while they plan whatever it is they’re planning. They’re presenting Phoebe and her perspective to him. #XSpoilers

And it’s not clear yet just how messed up the kids are. Are they Revelation hardliners who think Quentin is going soft? Do they have misgivings about Quentin’s training? I honestly don’t know. The smallest one is intentionally scary, but with the others it feels more ambiguous. #XSpoilers

It’s a fucked up kind of dynamic where Quentin is trying to be a good mentor, but his mentorship is about assassination and spy craft. He knows these kids aren’t really okay, but he wants to give them some kind of stability. #XSpoilers

The tone of Omega Kids is deeply weird since it’s clear Quentin is training kids to do psychic black ops for Revelation (who he’s fully on board with), but he also absolutely wants to take care of these children and is very tender towards them despite acting gruff. #XSpoilers

Quentin’s lane is punk kid who annoys the older folks on the team (and also he went fash for a minute when he was 15, but we’re working through that). Using the time jump to put him in the mentor role is fun. #XSpoilers

My brain is spinning on Omega Kids since I read it last week (probably because I was also listening to the Cerebro episode on Quentin Quire at the same time), and I find the idea of Quentin as a bumbling teacher really compelling. #XSpoilers

None of this is to say the books are bad. I’m open to seeing writers I don’t know well do something interesting on a small story. Will I care about the non-X characters outside this context? Probably not, but that’s okay. #XSpoilers

There are a few books that just have cool setups, like X-Vengers, Iron & Frost, and Cloak or Dagger, although my emotional investment varies on these. Dani has Cap’s shield? Awesome! The Avengers are mutants? Eh, okay. Cloak and Dagger literalize their mechanic for Rivals? I guess #XSpoilers

Overall highlights for me are probably Omega Kids, Expatriate X-Men, and Book of Revelation. Playing with how circumstances can push relatively morally straightforward characters into ambiguous situations is fun. #XSpoilers

All the first issues are out for Age of Revelation now, and overall I’ve enjoyed them. Some are more compelling than others, but for a bunch of three issue bad future stories, I’m not mad about anything. #XSpoilers

I did this set of character portraits for a friend of mine. It was fun revisiting some Krakoan era looks for these characters!

He’s standing and holding a laser rifle. Digital painting of Cyclops of the X-Men. He’s a white man in a dark blue costume with a full cowl and silver visor covering his eyes. He stands with a hand on his hip and his other hand resting on his visor. Digital painting of Nightcrawler of the X-Men. He has blue fur and tridactyl hands and feet. He’s wearing a black jump suit with a long red sleeveless coat. He stands in a sort of half crouch. Digital painting of Kate Pryde of the X-Men. She is a white woman with wavy brown hair. She’s wearing black pants and a white shirt with knee high buccaneers boots and a long red overcoat. She is standing with her hand on her hip and a cutlass resting on her shoulder.

I’m doing some work for a buddy at the moment, but I just really needed to do something fun for myself today. First time drawing Harley!
