-anne gwish tshirt that i made because i only ever found ONE listing for the original and it was bought already :,,(
all of my individual issues of johnny the homicidal maniac came organically to me as i work at a comic book shop and people have sold collections to the owner and he gave me the issues for free!! (he used them temporarily as fly swatters because anything that isnt first printing is worthless)
i also have a small collection of lenore the cute little dead girl if any one is interested. my love for jthm was blossomed from the love i had of lenore when i was young. i grew up with my dad at the comic book store he worked at (the same one i work at now!) and he would buy me the individual issues and hardcover lenore books as they came out. i had to have been 6 or 7 which i probably shouldnt have been reading bloody comics full of profanity but FUCK IT! they changed my life and the more i learned about roman dirge, the more i learned about jhonen vasquez with jthm and aaron alexovich with serenity rose (honorable mention jim mahfood). they inspired me to create my own comic that has helped me to cope with a lot of emotions and personal trauma over this past couple years.
"Time goes by, everything changes, yet our bond remains unwavered. You once promised me that you will always be by my side, no matter what. And now, when it is time for you to leave, I must follow you to where no human can even dream to step. This way only will your promise remain unchanged. And may my curse once again be a blessing."
Not for any nefarious reason tho-- just kinda wanted to play around with the idea of where the body color ends and the tail color begins. He's my sunrise boy 🥹
Tbh not very happy with how this turned out, but people have been giving me positive reactions!! So...
I was originally gonna make it a gif instead of a video but I couldn't upload it because it was too big of a file for tumblr so there's that. Atleast you get to enjoy my shitty music taste !!!
