It’s simply time to replace the Marvel editorial leadership. I have a soppy mop right over here that would be as good but I’m up for aiming a bit higher.

Little Bo Peep lost her sheep and didn’t know where to find them.
Leave them alone and they’ll come home.
And in the darkness bind them.
Leave them alone and they’ll come home.
And in the darkness bind them.

Gah. The suspense building on this first page alone has me creeped out for the rest of the issue. Art and words working in perfect unison to dramatic effect with the reader. Any Grimjack reader!

Some of you awesome people told me about Noirvember, which I never knew about, and I had to contribute my Noirvember piece featuring none other than Detective Pikachu, the ultimate noir icon and Pokemon icon. If y'all like it, I might do more of these. It was lots of fun.

Hahaha! Er. Someone has used AI to make analogue clocks with the live time.
Analogue clocks are really hard.
AI: spectacularly confident. Can be both subtly and spectacularly wrong. This is a lovely illustration of that.
