Bonus pages because I had to fill the back matter somehow.

Page 7 has a selection of silly emoji style doodles and says "I can fill them up with whatever." Photo of page 8 of the zine. It has a stick figure doodle of me giving a thumbs up and says "(This was also a comic.)"

Tomorrow's the first day of comics club at work, and I'm going to pitch the children on making shit for fun.

Page 4 has a stick figure doodle of me holding up the zine looking ragged and says "It doesn't have to be *perfect*."

I did these two as a diptych because these characters resonate in interesting ways despite not having interacted. People seemed to really like the Tonya piece, but I always wished there had been more love for Isabella.

My wife wrote a flash fiction story that people really liked last year. We were going to make stickers and badge ribbons for World Con to celebrate, but time got away from us. Here’s the design I did for her. It’s simple, but I think it turned out really well.

I have perfectly normal feelings about these two. I want them to get everything they want, never mind that she’s damned and he’s living a lie and together they will probably destroy the world.
