October is upon us!
To celebrate, here is an old-ish comic I made about Brook for a #OnePiece horror zine called "What Lurks Beneath".
It was a hell of a project but I was (and am) pleased with how it turned out and what I could capture of Brook's backstory.
Enter at your own peril 🌊💀🧵[1/4]

The Thousand Sunny is silhouetted against a stormy sea. Brook: "Stormy seas and dark clouds are no cause to frown - come pick your noise-maker and let's boogie down!" Usopp with a banjo: "Be real with us Brook, something doesn't make sense!" Chopper with a flute: "Do you swear you can play all these wild instruments?" Brook: "Cross my heart hope to die, were there one to be found- though it's not half as hard as you're making it sound. Given time any bonehead can learn any part, and time did I have on that grim Thriller Bark; Always gloomy, no sun, nor a moon, scarcely rain, so! To mark passing days I decided I'd train. I pledged I would master the tools of my crew-!" He stage-whispers to the boys: "Though step number one was divining who's who." In a flashback, Brook plays a wind instrument by a skeleton. "Clarinet means it's Charlie; Oboe, and it's Chet." He plays a note. "An old English horn? But that means..." He shakes the skeleton and yells, "Bernadette!?"

Brook borrows Chopper's flute. "I practiced and practiced, and practiced some more! Every tune I knew soon back to front without flaw." He dances while playing the flute. "Fingers worked to the bone til I couldn't deny;" he pauses, arms lowering. Fog has started to enter his frame. "I had learned all I could. It was time for goodbye." He looks down at a long-haired skeleton in a tattered dress. "I'd retire each piece with its player below." Brook's words appear on a sheet of music paper along with shadows of his bony hands tying strings around a wide variety of instruments. He has now tied the flute to the skeleton with a red string and carries her through the fog and drops her over the side of the ship into the ocean. In the present day, Sanji and Robin watch in perturbed silence. Brook continues - "Though it seemed to these eyes not all wanted to go." A haunted long-haired face blending skeleton and flesh takes one last fearful look at Brook as it sinks below the waves.

To me, art is about describing how you see and interpret the world. It makes sense that I'd be able to notice new things and learn about things I don't often "see" from other artists simply because we pay attention to different things. hhh that's just so cool.

Do you guys ever see someone's art that just so well articulated that it unlocked some knowledge in your head? Like oh wow hey yeah you're right! That IS how the oblique muscle turns and that IS what it looks like from this angle.

WAHAHA REMY THANK YOU
Don't you worry... I have so many ideas brewing...

But get this. I think more of the Funnies would come from concert season. Imagine Akechi walking into all state honor band as 1st trumpet. Sees no Akira. "That's such a shame," he tells Makoto. Makoto is like "what do you mean." They start tuning. Oh look who's first chair oboe. Akira. BOOM.

Listen:
- Akira on Sax, but he can literally pick up any other instrument
- Makoto drum major (plays trombone)
- Akechi drum major from another school (plays trumpet)
- Ryuji on battery
- Yusuke's school doesn't have a marching band so he joins Shujin's, he probably does rifle most. Or maybe saber
