So moving to see artist Amy Sherald's original portrait of Breonna Taylor on display at the @whitneymuseum. The piece was commissioned by @vanityfair.com for a special issue guest edited by writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, who invited me to illustrate two pieces. Both were brilliantly colored by @sotocolor.

Shadow Cabinet number 10 March 1994. Cover by JP Leon.
Page 3-4 showing the credits for the creation of Milestones Comics. Shawn Martinbrough as the inker.
I love going through my collection and seeing badasses I have been following for years - like @smartinbrough.bsky.social , one of the best out there - and the incredible work he did as an inker in things like Shadow Cabinet back in ‘94.
I did figure out who would lead it btw! 😛

I put together a list of the 5 books that made me a better comic book writer. Including books from @blambot.bsky.social, @smartinbrough.bsky.social, Mark Kneece, Alan Moore and François Truffaut.
What other books should be on the list?
