Beautiful 19th Century Maps of Dante’s Divine Comedy: Inferno, Purgatory, Paradise & More

Even the least religious among us speak, at least on occasion, of the circles of hell. When we do so, we may or may not be thinking of where the concept originated: Dante's Divina Commedia, or Divine ...

Running up hill. It's the story of my life.

I feel like I need to change that last panel to a doughnut.

I spent many years making everything pixel perfect. As a point of rebellion I refused to use a ruler for this page & It shows haha.

No prompts but I'm slinging ink #inktober #inktober2025

Her comic book page with nine panels. The first panel is a group of jacks and balls. Second panel is a guy running. Third panel is a girl on her dog. Fourth panel is a shoe running uphill on rocks. Fifth panel is a sunset. Six panel is a guy looking uphill. 7th panel is a silhouette with his hand on top of his head eighth panel. Two figures playing basketball. 9th panel silhouette running uphill text reads. I've turned hiking into a game. The rules #1 rocks mean run, rule number two. You only run uphill so I run it helps with the thickening. Damn donuts. Each panel has a text overlay or shares a title that reads Monday, Saturday sometimes Monday, Wednesday, Saturday

What a world, what a world.
The Hatchet Man 🪓 Chop chop chop

#zine #art #ink #digitalart #thriller #horror #noir

A black and white comic book page with 4 panels.

Panel 1 depicts a privileged couple sipping cocktails and their swanky apartment. The man discusses screwing over his workers and giving himself a bonus. The woman he holds in his arms congratulates him.

Panel 2 A faceless man in a hat and trench coat creeps forward. He holds his hatchet in one hand and slowly turns the door knob with his other. Door knob creaks in his hand. Cheek!

Panel 3 The couple in their apartment are startled by the sound. They turn their head curious. " Did you hear that?"

Panel 4 The man goes to the door and peeks outside his eye widens and horror, terrified by something the panel simply reads Chop Chop Chop

This page was drawn for no prompt inktober

Happy Friday to all of those that celebrate. Throw enough panels together & you get a page. Put enough pages together & you get a book, step by step, The Hatchet Man 🪓 cometh.

#art #ink #story #digitalart #short #noir #blackandwhite #inktober #draw #jazz #boots #gloves #hatchet

A comic book page from the Hatchet Man short story by Nate Reynolds

The artwork is black and white. Doom Jazz plays in the background.

Page 5 Apartment building - Hallway

The tension builds.
Light grey music notes stream through the page like a ribbon of sheet music, contrasting the impending doom.

Panel 1 a gloved hand raises a hatchet in the air. Music notes and black splatter decorate the frame.
Panel 2. Dark boots creep down the hallway. Panel 3. A long Shadow creeps down the long hallway, to the door at the end. There are 5 doors visible, The one at the end of the hallway and two on each side.
Panel 4. The shadow of the Hatchet Man floats across the door, rising up from the bottom . His hatchet raises into the air.
Panel 5. A black gloved hand and a hatchet reach out and grab the door knob.The music notes continue to paint the background of the page.

Page 6, coming soon, to a social media post near you. Happy inktober!

Inspiration is interesting, it's hard to tell when or where it's going to come from. So when it comes I do my best to hold on tight.

One of my favourite Flemish folktales is that of a witch who lived near the sea in a derelict cottage that the locals avoided. They were thrilled when a storm destroyed it. The witch went to the sea and kept herself occupied by conjuring storms and capsizing ships.

I'm in love with classic Film Noirs.
A lot of those old films were low budget, stripped down B pictures. Shot fast and cheap. Those restrictions forced them to lean into the shadows and the music to create mood their budgets wouldn't allow. This was one of my attempts to do the same.

Trump and Speaker Johnson think that destroying our health care and jacking up the cost of groceries is about hurting Democrats.

It’s not. It’s about hurting and punishing the American people.
