Look what I found waiting on my doorstep! I've lost track of how many years this book was in the making. And now it finally exists in the real world!

If you've got a young reader that likes graphic novels & stories with lots of humor, magic, and unexpected twists, they're gonna love this one 😊🧩✨

Lamplight, page 15. This page was fun to draw! For anyone curious about process, this is all done in pen and ink/inkwash, with some digital clean-up.

Lamplight, p14 ✉️ If you're just jumping in, the story so far: A woman begins receiving inexplicable letters that seem to be written by a 19th c. Arctic explorer. The letters document his exploration of a strange house he found on the tundra--a house that's becoming increasingly bizarre & menacing...

If you missed the beginning of my weird fiction/short horror comic Lamplight, I'm also working on posting the whole thing at doramitchell.com/lamplight
It's easier to read in that format, I think, so give it a look if you're intrigued by the story 👻

Lamplight, page 13...

So, one year after I started my "short" "quick" Inktober 2024 project, I finally finished it! Might as well finish posting it, huh? Inktober may be over, but it seems like we're living in a never-ending spooky season, so let's have a little Lovecraftian horror 💀

Here's Lamplight page 12...

I'm a little behind on posts because I...forgot Bluesky existed?? No offense, Blueski 😆

Also I'm behind because I just haven't been able to finish a page a day 😭 but I've got a couple more to post at least!

Reposting since I apparently forgot to attach images last time 😅

Here's page 3 of my #Inktober2023 comic, Lamplight! I didn't manage to start on Oct. 1, so I'm only on page 4 as of today. That means about 27 more pages of spooky season creepiness to come...🦇💀

Well, I guess a new comic is a good enough reason for my very first Bluesky post :) I'm writing & illustrating a short comic for #Inktober2023. Let's see if I can really manage a page a day like I'm planning...🎃👻

Here's page 1 & 2--more to come!
