[theorahsart]

SO I have been reading all year about Robespierre and I have *so* many thoughts, and want to make a short-ish (maybe like 70 pages) narrative comic so I can get my thoughts out somewhere.

I wanted to make a little rambly note below about this comic before I start posting the rest of it. The comic itself won't have a regular schedule, I'm just gonna work on it when I'm in super obsessed mode and need to get my thoughts out lol Please follow #incorruptiblecomic for more :3

So this comic is based on a lot of reading about a real person, but I want to emphasise that I'm not a historian or expert. It would be disrespectful to say this comic is completely faithful to history when I'm an artist not a historian (*side eyes Ridley Scott*) and this comic is kinda mixing in a bunch of things relating to me personally and how I am personally seeing it reflected in the books I'm reading- autism, being misinterpreted, the devisiveness of modern day politics, misinformation and propoganda in media. The narrative will be more focused on feelings rather than timelines, and feelings arent rly something you can garuntee to be historically accurate for obvious reasons lol

Something I've found really interesting about French Revolution is that there is a lot of extremely different interpretations of the same events, dependant a lot on the writers own culture/upbringing/national identity etc. I lived in genuine cant-afford-to-eat poverty for like 4 years post recession, under a Tory government that said I was leeching off benefits, and I'm sure that's also coloured my own interpretation too.

I'm explaining this cos this comic shouldnt be taken as some sort of historical resource, just my personal interpretation and thoughts around an interestesting person I found very relatable/easy to understand, who I see being misunderstood a lot.

If you want to do actual historical reading, there's loads of books out there with wildly different interpretations. Its probably good to read all of them, with critical thought, and find the 'in between' in all those interpretations. Thats what makes history really interesting! My favourite English books Ive read so far are a couple of different books by Peter Mcfee, and 'Twelve Who Ruled', which is probably the most unbiased book I've read, that still paints a vivid picture for someone who isnt super academic like me.

I hope you enjoy my interpretation~

what was supposed to be 24h turned into a whole year but the prompt was to think about flashbacks and flash forwards so i pondered the life of a teacup

I'd really enjoy thoughts and feedback <3

Beverly Shaw, Sir!

Here's a comic I made for a music themed charity zine about Beverly Shaw. More details under the cut!

Last year, I was part of a charity zine called TidBits: Beat Sized Comics for your Heart! I made a comic about the iconic Beverly Shaw. Oftentimes, when we talk about queer life in the past, we imagine that those who lived through different eras were needlessly sad, never had any sort of success, and had to be miserable by virtue of when they lived. Beverly Shaw helps remind me that this isn't true: people have always danced and sang together. You can learn more about Beverly Shaw on the Queer Music Heritage website, which has done amazing work chronicling details about her life.

Please check out the rest of the zine to see other artist's responses to the prompt about how music effects them and consider making a donation to Sam's Fans if you do download it.

Blood ritual Their adopted bebe is very weak and ill and while only few months old, already had some traumatic life experiences. And when you worry your child may die, perhaps a sacrifice to the gods will save him.

Sketch for this was in my diary for 6 years. That boy was just so sure that America was a fantasy land so for a moment I also believed him ♥

I love it when webcomic artists go hard on historical accuracy in totally incongruous contexts. Whether it's Tracy Butler agonising over whether the specific model of vacuum-tube radio that appears in the background of a single panel in a comic about cats shooting each other with guns is period appropriate, or Daisy McGuire giving a character 1970s punk fashion in the year 1904, but taking care to depict the safety pins in her ears as a type that actually existed in that year, that's what keeps bringing me back to a comic.
