Comics will heal your heart, kid. - Me (after Kirby)
Pinned
I was just asked in an email but to give everyone an idea of my prices...

I digitally color over a scan of the original pencils or inks (inks are preferable for the best results) and then provide a flattened tiff file back for printing, along with a png or jpg for sharing online.
I like all of these

Post 4 TV Couples you Love

(I'm stretching this a bit, I'm counting a friendship that is as close as an actual couple, deal with it, lol)

Bonus: She-Ra and Catra from the last She-Ra cartoon

Hey! I held a baby Kangaroo, a Two-Toed Sloth, and an Otter today. I also fed Camels, Capybara, and Kangaroos. Played with Otters. And saw a bunch of other animals like Lemurs, Spider Monkeys, Zebras, Servals, and Llamas. It was a great day.

Alan Davis' Nightcrawler is incomparable.

The evolution from stale 1950's space cadets to sexy space teens who played space D&D and got into all sorts of romance and drama is truly fascinating
People forget that the LEGION OF SUPERHEROES was sort of ground breaking, having both gay characters and even a trans character (as problematic as Shvaughn Erin might be considered by today's standards...at least they were trying!).
Lightning Lass and Shrinking Violet commission! Happy pride!

We all had that one friend who wanted all the gum.
So funny that when I was a kid they packaged trading cards with a wooden slab of the worst gum you can imagine and we all just kind of went with it.

Trump sent thousands of armed federal officers into our state, and it took just one day for them to kill someone.

Now he wants nothing more than to see chaos distract from that horrific action.

Don’t give him what he wants.

My favorites, surprisingly not the Jim Lee one, but it's 4th.

The Utopia/Astonishing outfit
The Krakoa outfit
The Revolutionary outfit
The X-Factor outfit variations (white and blue, no hood is my fave)

You think Kirk Langstrom ever heard Bruce’s origin and mocked him? “ ‘Yes father I shall become a bat,’ really Bruce? But no you just bought a cape. Now me, your dad would be proud of for follow through, but you? Weak sauce Brucey. Just weak.”

Do Cyclops (i think that's the plural) with bad eyesight wear glasses... a glass Lens, or just contacts...a contact?

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

CYCLOPS #1 has its preorder cutoff this coming Monday, which is when retailers settle on their final order numbers.
Gail thinks Scott Summers is a big dork, and even she digs it.
Maybe you will too?
