Various Comics feat. Various Freaks

This is a zine I produced as a culmination of all the comics I did in my graphic novel illustration course in my final semester. The zine consists of four comics and there is no consistent story through out. I worked on a new story for each comic as a way to challenge myself to find different ways to tell different narratives. I love designing characters in my free time, but never situate them in anything concrete. Through this class, I was able to take a step forward with my work and create environments for my characters to live in.

“This course helped me look at my work in a new light. I want to thank Fiona Smyth (my professor) for not only giving useful feedback, but also encouraging us to stay true to our styles and create work that we want to create. I'm excited to work on more comics/zines in the future!”
