Came down with norovirus, but while I'm feeling a lot better I'm self-quarantined for the rest of the week, to make sure I'm not contagious anymore.
Spent yesterday re-reading Astro City, and...I'd nearly forgotten how GOOD that comic is.

"We don't hate you, we just don't don't accept you, we don't want you anywhere near us, and frankly we would prefer if you all just went away because your existence makes us uncomfortable. But we don't HATE you!"
Yeah, I'm sure the trans women find that very comforting.

Ooooh, I'd nearly forgotten I drew this.
But the Misfits were awesome! Easily the best part of the Jem and the Holograms cartoon AND comic series.
(And Synergy DID have mind control powers in the comic series, even if she used sound and not light... but acceptable breaks from canon.)
That's right! The movie itself had such bland and empty backgrounds for that segment, so I went to auxillary material to see if I could find something that looked marginally more interesting.

I've finally got around to continuing Lady Vidia's Disney cavalcade too. This is Fantasia!
Wanna see the rest of the cavalcade... well, the Snow White and Pinocchio parts, anyway... with prologue and commentaries by both me and Lady Vidia? Here: artofdinam.com/lady-vidias-...
This line got me, though:
"We have a team? Are any of them broad-shouldered young Danish men? Fresh off the tree farm, naΓ―ve to our American ways, perhaps in need of a firm older hand..."
Sheila, honey. I don't know what you imagine Denmark's like, but whatever it is, it's... not that.
Checking out Strip Law on Netflix today! So far it seems pretty good... I really needed an adult animated comedy that wasn't Bojack Horseman. Or worse, Rick and Morty. I have a super-low tolerance for nihilism as of late.
So far it seems pretty good. I like the character of Sheila.
What if it's a shapeshifting dragon who can take on the form of a human?

I suppose Valentine's Day is as good a day as any to finally launch the second Project Eryss story: Holly Blackthorne and the Silent Choir!
It's not a romance, but it does feature the rescue of a hypnotized and kidnapped girlfriend... and sex. And naked monkey-themed superheroines.
I've been wearing a scarf all day, and I haven't even been outside.
...it's a nice and warm scarf, more like a shawl really.
Ugh. And here's me owning an 18+ server at that.

I was that #jets was the #1 trending topic today and my first thought was "West Side Story".
Shows you how into sports I am!
The second Project Eryss story, Holly Blackthorne and the Silent Choir, is done! My Patrons have had access to it for a week already, but I'll release it publicly next week. In the meantime, here are three of the story's four illustrations (the fourth is a little spoilery, so not including that).

Nope, that'd be Tutter the Mouse.
Rizzo the Rat is one of the regular Muppets (he first appeared in seasons 4 and 5 in the original Muppet Show, but rose to prominence with the post-1990s Muppet movies, like A Muppet Christmas Carol), when he was teamed up with Gonzo.
Saw the new Muppet Show special! My boy Rizzo the Rat had an entire song number!
