Beholder Series #3 in November Issue of Blueprint Magazine
Strip number three came out in the November issue of Blueprint Magazine.
This one was the longest one to figure out for me. I must have tried to work out thirteen or so different concepts and scripts for this month’s issue which centered around the theme of “food”. Something to do with cannibilism came to mind first but then the more it rolled around trying to find a way to flesh itself out, I determined it just seemd to obvious a direction and that wasn’t challenging enough to me.
What came after words came from me asking the question: “There’s got to be something I can do relating to vegetarians instead…”
–And so the Cannible Tree was born! I just love the last panel, Emmanuel nailed exactly what I had in mind and I awkwardly chuckle each time I imagine the dance of joy coming from minions of the necrafruit tree.

Thanks man! Looks like this arrangement is open for Emmanuel and I as long as we can keep up with the magazine’s release dates! Strip #4 written and sent out to Emm tonight. Must get it done before leaving to Portugal on weekend! That’ll get December in the bag!
