thorn is so. she kinda just. her ❤️

thorn drawing inspired by the rose and thorn (2004) #1 comic cover done by adam hughes 😊

(also colored with the same color palette as the beloved Him from the powerpuff girls 😉)

more an' more whenever i go lookin' to read old issues of comics about a character i like, i find that seein' Gail Simone on writing credits is a good reason to skip that run

i was tryin' to read more Rose & Thorn stuff cuz honestly aside from the whole "oooh Rose doesn't know that her alter's a vigilante HOW EERIE AND MYSTERIOUS" thing, it's like

honestly not too bad? there's a decent chunk of comics about them that doesn't demonize their plurality

but then the solo comic from '04 and their appearances in Simone's BOP (with that horrible male-gazey hypersexualized art by Benes) are just, like

gods, it's Simone at her worst, alright? Lots of OOOOH LOOK AT HOW CRAZY AND VIOLENT THORN IS, to the point that i can barely stomach a few pages per issue. They even used a harder-to-read 'crazy' font for Thorn's narration boxes.

a lot of the time it's hard to articulate exactly what i hate about Gail Simone's writing and her narrative voice but the ableism and demonization of neurodivergence is a pretty strong part of it

(also considerin' how much Simone speaks about violence against women in comics it's pretty fucked up that she retconned Rose & Thorn's backstory to be more violent against female characters and kill more of them)

Rose & Thorn shouldn't be a story about how scary and traumatized folks with DID/OSDD are, it should be DC's answer to Moon Knight.

I think the truth every KF fan needs to accept is that Forrest could rizz every single goddamn adult in that town and it wouldnt even be hard.

He is THE fandom bicycle solely because he has too much rizz

Forrest x Sandra? Practically canon.

Forrest x Ponty? Easy.

Forrest x Peggy? Straightforward.

Forrest x Teddy? Toxic old man yaoi, love it.

Forrest x Ricky? Go for it.

Forrest x Virginia? Fantastic.

Forrest x Marie? Spicy.

Forrest x Murphy? Stepdad 4 life.

You could ship this mf with ANYONE and it would work. He is straight. He is gay. He is queer. He has no concept of the spectrum of sexuality. He is all sexualities at once. He is infinite. Forrest is that bitch and will always BE that bitch.

Legally Blonde UK remake starring 2000s era Billie Piper and David Tennant as Elle and Emmett. Is this anything

[abyssalzones]

ev sketches, big and small. still struggling to figure out when I want to work on outlines...

I also found everyone's oldest sketches back when I was still a kid first designing them and thought this comparison in how much they've changed was kind of neat

Finished this fanart at a breakneck pace because I love all of you.

Congrats to our winner, Bombyx Mori, fucking deserves it she’s a legend, and our runner up Count Dion, ugh I love him so much.

Here’s everyone who made it past the first round (the top 10 finishers):

I used this photo from my musings (the first one of MHA’s polls) as reference. And of course, Grace’s art for everyone + Barnaby’s art for their own character of count dion (and a little bit of their art style also helped with drawing Bombyx thank you thank you)

its the distant future they wouldn't know about any of these- shhhhh

Stars and Strips

GYPSY Crescent Theatre, Birmingham, Sunday 12th May 2024 They’re an ambitious lot at the Crescent.  I’ll say that in their favour from the off.  Now they’re tackling this mammoth of a musical, which brings its own challenges: the many locations, the large cast of characters, and the musical numbers. Ostensibly the origin story of burlesque star, Gypsy Rose Lee, it’s really the story of her…

See I just know Forrest has the most devious fucking smile. You can HEAR it. He’s always up to some shit with that Grinch ass smile. Sir you’re 47 why are you smirking so mischievously. Like a little raccoon rubbing its paws together.

Probably has something to do with the fact he’s pissy about moving from his home and is going to make it everyone’s problem

[mad-prophet-of-the-airwaves]

Rest in peace, Frederic Forrest (1936-2023).

^the winners of polls 1,3,5,6, and 9.

I tried to not have Hayley be put against herself 3 times, and not have Annie vs Bombyx because they’re from the same arc.

So here we are folks. Welcome to Semifinal #1. May luck ever be in your favor.
