I think I’ve made my face do the raised eyebrow thing out of sheer will. I was never able to do it at all until recently but always thought it was the coolest thing. (This picture isn’t my best attempt though).

Off to mail my first two sold comics!

Realised later I did a completely unintentional Kevin Turvey.

Lots of comics ready to ship. As I said on Instagram, thank you so much everyone who’s bought one! I haven’t sold much art at all for quite while so all these orders are very encouraging!
