it took a week, but I made a comic interpretation of one of the best moments in the @malevolent.ca podcast, my personal favourite, from episode 40.

Dialogue is taken from the #malevolent episode itself. #artpost

Spoilers:
a large single comic page adapted from the Malevolent podcast, episode 40. Arthur, a suit wearing man with a mustache, grips the hand of Noel, a trenchcoat wearing detective with a tie and a 5-oclock-shadow, as he dangles off the side of a massive theater balcony. Arthur is losing his grip as an off-screen ethereal voice commands Noel to "FALL." which he almost obeys, until strange tentacle-like whisps of energy give Arthur the strength to pull him up, rising out of him like steam. The golden-coloured energy coalesces dramatically into a gigantic godly entity, who goes by John, swirling into place like a stirred glass of glowing yellow dye, cosmic stars float around inside him, he roars with anger, screaming at his adversary, "Yellow", ie the King in Yellow, who cowers behind Larson, a grimy looking man with glasses who he's attached himself to not unlike how John seems to be attached to Arthur. Noel tries to steady Arthur who seems to be physically taxed by this apparition but John continues, pointing directly at Yellow, who is in disbelief, that this is even possible to begin wtih. John calls his pathetic reach for power weak, and bades him to leave, to seal himself away in his host Larson like a coward, and while impressive and terrifying display continues to sap energy from Arthur as Noel shouts out, Yellow asks how this is even possible, why HIM, why give a damn about this human at all. John's energy seems to dissipate as he evapourates back into Arthur saying that his power comes from how much he and Arthur support and believe in each other, something Yellow will never understand.
