Early drawings of the Harthrows and company. Amon was originally older looking, before I made him a bit more square-jawed and intense. Father Abaddon initially looked mean and kind of ghoulish, I much prefer his present incarnation, being more of a goof.
Asmodea didn't change too much- I originally had an idea that assistants would constantly be restyling her on the fly during the party, so she'd have a different look every time we cut back to her. It was funny enough, but the gag di...

I find it helpful to draw a bunch of random faces before starting a new scene/location.

Some older designs prior to Kim's meeting with Alisa Caspar. I like drawing Amon Harthrow frowning.

An early idea for Usonia was to make the suburb extremely blocky and modular, like it was made from prefabricated components and assembled on-site. It looked kind of neat, but ended up making Usonia feel more cold and impersonal than Nephilopolis proper, which was the opposite of what I wanted. Also here are some muscle studies of Kim. Getting the "exposed" arm to flex and rotate convincingly with the more natural looking physique was key.
We'll also soon be finding out exactly ...

Usonia went through so many iterations. The town square that ended up in the comic is based on production art from the Frank Capra film Lost Horizon (1937). The surrounding regions are loosely based on Frank Lloyd Wright's concepts for a utopian-style planned city in which agriculture and urbanization were equally valued.
Also there's a man in a hat for some reason. And Briareos.

I usually do a ton of sketches that I can't show at the time because it'll spoil the plot, and then I forget that I ever drew them! With that in mind, here are the original passes at doing Azra-El the Giantslayer.

Hey guys! In what you'll agree is a totally out-of-character move, I got a little too ambitious with this page's details, so it may go up a day or so late. To make it up to you, I'm sharing the pencils.
There's nothing really spoilery outside of the dialog, so I hope you enjoy it!

Apologies for the unusual lateness of this page, I’ve been sorting out some health issues that have now, thankfully, been resolved.

Hey all, here is a non-spoilery sneak peek of #63. Sorry for the dearth of updates, but the next (action-packed) installment of Dark Science will be going up this week. I'm grateful for your patience and excited for you to see what's coming up next for Kim and the gang!

Hey guys, just letting you know the next page probably will go up a couple days later than usual, as I've taken a few days off for health reasons. Thanks for your patience and support!

The true reason I've never put Kim in glasses is because the world isn't prepared for the cuteness.

Apologies for the lack of extra drawings in the feed lately. All the art I'm working on is loaded with *mega spoilers* so I figured it would be best to share those after they actually happen in the story!
