A Very Experimental Comic For This Week! 👀 What Do You Guys Think? I'm Considering Using This Rough

Here is a little wordless comic featuring my rabbit, Celeste! I hope you enjoyed this week's installment of 'Slices of Gremlin'! I am going to continue updating every Tuesday, and if you would like to support the comic and get early access, you can sign up to be a member of the 'Little Creature Club' on Ko-Fi!

What are your three favorite things about Vincent and Witherspoon as individual characters? There are lots of things I love about them, but I want to hear from you as the creator!

Awww, thank you so much for the ask, that's so kind of you girl!! C: That's a really nice question, and I really appreciate being able to ramble a bit ehehe!!

For Vincent, I would say, A) as someone who has grown up Southern, it meant a lot to me to create a Southern character who was portrayed in a positive light. He's unabashedly Southern but he's not a stereotype of it, if that makes any sense. He IS a bit silly, but he's also very intelligent and capable! It feels very comforting to me to have a character with a Southern drawl.

B), Vincent is genuinely kind. He really and truly wants the best for everyone around him, even if they call themselves his enemy, and it's zero to none for him to actually hold a grudge against anyone. He's not perfect, and has his own flaws, but he hasn't let the often very cynical nature of the world affect him to the point of allowing him to grow bitter, even though he's had a lot of chances for this to happen.

He's truly a safe person to be around.

C), I can't really go into it too much because it's spoiler-y in nature, but in-story he is associated heavily with trippy dream settings where reality is altered in uneasy ways, where liminal spaces and crazy aesthetics come into play. This is one thing that I'm REALLY looking forward to showing visually! It'll get very weird!

For Witherspoon, A) It's a bit simple, but it genuinely makes me happy that he is based on Bluejays. :) They are my favorite bird, and honestly it just makes me happy to see them.

B), Witherspoon is someone who thinks that he is a very bad person, and he instinctively wonders quite often why anyone would want to be around him. He's a loner by nature, but this added causes him to isolate himself and sometimes even hate himself. Little does he know, though, he is SO loved, and he is loved for exactly who he's always been. He's the most loved person in the whole story, and he has always deserved to be loved.

C), It may be a bit silly, but despite the fact that he is a vigilante/hitman in profession, I also imagine him as a very safe presence. He truly tries his best to make the right judgment calls, and he is honest to his core. Witherspoon would be very hard-pressed to ever lie or show dishonesty about anything, even to his own detriment -- (which happens). Even if he's dealing with those he doesn't like/trust, he absolutely refuses to cheat anyone. If he has sworn an oath to you, he'll never break it.

Here is a sketch dump, with church notes and various things I've taped on the pages mixed in. 👀 The last page is me trying to figure out Plankton's human design from SpongeBob the Musical. Which doodle is your favorite?

Life lesson: it's always handy to have a Mermaid in the car! This fun exchange happened between me and one of my close friends. 😊 If you liked this comic, and want to see more, please check out the series on Webtoons! I have a goal to keep updating it every Tuesday morning.

Mutuals who I don't know very personally yet I am holding a sugarcube out in my hand in the hopes that you will approach me like the noble horse

Send in the clowns.

Thanks for being along on the journey of 2024 with me! 🎉 I have a lot of big plans, creatively, for this upcoming year, so I hope that you guys stay on for the ride! I started my first webcomic, Slices of Gremlin, in June of this year.
