Here is my contribution to the string of homages to Manara-Moebius-Parrish started by Brandon Graham over here.

I chose to draw Bezine Netal from the new Star Wars. She only had a brief moment of screen time but she was intriguing to me nonetheless.

Mizuki Shigeru’s Seven Rules of Happiness.

#7 – Believe in what you cannot see – The things that mean the most are things you cannot hold in your hand.

#6 – Take it easy – Of course you need to work, but don’t overdo it! Without rest, you’ll burn yourself out.

#5 – Talent and income are unrelated – Money is not the reward of talent and hard work. Self-satisfaction is the goal. Your efforts are worthy if you do what you love.

#4 – Believe in the power of love – Doing what you love, being with people you love. Nothing is more important.

#3 – Pursue what you enjoy – Don’t worry if other people find you foolish. Look at all the people in the world who are eccentric—they are so happy! Follow your own path.

#2 – Follow your curiosity – Do what you feel drawn towards, almost like a compulsion. What you would do without money or reward.

#1 – Don’t try to win – Success is not the measure of life. Just do what you enjoy. Be happy.

Here are a few of the responses to @royalboiler ’s LUM tribute to an image made famous by Moebius’ original cover illustration (after Maxfield Parrish) for the first issue of Metal Hurlant. The third image is by tessawracked.tumblr.com , then Rodrigo Bravo, @alchemichael , mercurialblonde.tumblr.com and my own @coll-comics (with colors by @royalboiler )

It’s been a while.

Based off @royalboiler‘s take on a string of pieces which you can see here.

Evolution of ANCESTOR

malachiward:

Matt Sheean and I had been working out the idea for Ancestor for awhile before Brandon Graham asked if we could do something for Island. Towards the end of 2013 we put together a pitch for Ancestor as a mini-series. Here are the first three pages from that -

Nothing happened with the pitch, but by the time it was decided that Ancestor would be serialized in the pages of Island, Matt and I knew we’d be re-writing and redrawing what was done for the pitch. These pages changed significantly:
• It went from three pages to five. I mean, we were gonna get a page rate, why condense things?? Really though, this sequence was the most personal and insightful sequence for the main character in the first chapter, so we wanted it to really resonate, and that required a bit more real estate.
• We changed the way the ‘title’ was displayed, partially because of how we wanted the subsequent chapters to be titled. We wanted to make it more minimal right off the bat, to visually indicate the beginning of our story in the pages of many other stories inside the anthology.
• We had a firmer grasp on how we would depict The Service, so we ditched the more metaphorical ‘brain opening’ up idea and went with something we would depict more consistently through out the series.

Of course there were all kinds of smaller changes too, take a look at the finished pages:

Mannn, I love this stuff Matt and Malachi are doing
