The Hearth (1/21)

A sapphic horror comic about witchcraft and hunger in the dead of winter.

An illustrated cover for a short comic called The Hearth by lainey williams. A cabin sits in a clearing in a snowy forest. The small windows in the log cabin are lit yellow and there is a trail of blood through the snow leading to the door. Smoke rises from the cabin’s chimney to surround the title. On either side of the smoke are illustrations in the style of Karelian embroidery, showing stylized geometric patterns in red thread. On the left side embroidery section, there is a depiction of a woman kneeling. her hands are stained red and she wears a headscarf. Opposite her is a woman standing. Instead of a left arm she has a wing. Over the top of the image, two geese shaded in red fly over the cabin and smoke. The trees all around the cabin are shaded in dark blue.

Great for a re-read. It's the mark of a good mystery, when you can catch more on the second go-round!

Go read Hello Sunshine! The characters and story are engrossing, and the care @keezyyoung.bsky.social put into discussing this topic legit helped me to understand my own paranoid anxiety spikes ♥

My daughter has the cutest lisp— BUUT we need to nip it as early as we can. So she’s getting evaluated at school by the speech therapist… I’m trying to record her voice as much as I can right now.
