#the visual art is stunning

Has anyone noticed how they are closer to each other this season?!

Let's hope they won't have turned their backs on each other for season 3!

I want to see a pose where they face each other really closely and are wrapped in each other's wings as if beneath a canopy. Bonus points if it's raining.

comics as an art form make me insane. they’re so difficult to do well. there’s so many different ways to make sequential art work and most of them are deeply unintuitive. onomatopoeia that feels completely ridiculous to put down often reads seamlessly. panels on a page become a fractally nested image composition challenge that’s only possible to lose because if you do a good job no one will notice. you have to direct the readers’ eyes on a specific path across the page but also account for the fact that they won’t follow it. comic time isn’t linear. if the order of events isn’t crystal clear the story becomes incomprehensible. sometimes you need to do this on purpose. all this for a medium almost universally considered less effective than animation and less respectable than plain text. even its own name doesn’t take it seriously

i'm making it my life's mission to get every locked tomb fan to watch arcane because i know if it existed in the early 2010s we would see its influence in tlt. guys this show has literally everything you guys want (spoilers!). a billion scenes of hot muscular women fighting each other and getting beat and bruised and bloody. the most devastating doomed siblings narrative you'll ever see and it only keeps getting worse. skrunkly weird mentally ill teenager with access to explosives who blames herself for her family's deaths and is haunted by their hallucinations. star-crossed angsty lesbian lovers on opposite sides of a class system. orphan CANON BUTCH LESBIAN rebel with a savior complex who is also the eldest daughter, who feels immense guilt and singularly responsible for the socio-political situation of her entire society, who becomes everything she once hated and crashes out spectacularly. the most beautiful woman on earth and she has a gold color palette. the complex politics of capitalist imperialism on a regional level. guy gains healing abilities and accidentally invents a religion out of it. am i not describing the locked tomb right now

OML also have you read /heard of Desire for Peace? It’s an ongoing webcomic about Ares’ recovery from his time in the jar by @/ephemeral-roses. It’s only 3 episodes long so far but the WRITING and the ART and the EMOTIONS is gorgeous. plus I LOVE their Aphrodite so much !!

Okay so when you sent this ask I hadn't known anything about @ephemeral-roses Desire for Peace but upon reading it, I immediately bolted to read the available three chapters and stalk their tumblr a bit. Now that I've sat with what I read for a few hours, I can confidently say that I'm quite a fan!!

I've seen a modest amount of takes on the 'Ares recovers from his jarification' premise most notably in fics, but it's my first time seeing a spin on it that seems to be primarily concerned with Ares' mental health in the aftermath. Also the opening premise of Ares being born twice, first from his mother and then from the jars was like, very impacting to me, I'm extremely interested to see how that is expounded upon. It's also really cool to have Ares as an amputee? There are many many elements that are tying Ares to his brothers just in these first couple chapters - born twice like Dionysus with one birth involving them having to be repaired after being torn apart by monsters (Ares is mental but Dionysus/Zagreus was physical), disabled like Hephaestus and being accompanied by Hermes who, instead of acting like a psychopomp and delivering Ares to death, instead acted like a nursemaid and delivered Ares back to life.

Anyway, the point is, thank you very much for pointing me in the direction of this series!! I'll definitely be keeping an eye on it eagerly!!

i will say that even with the nitpicks i have, i do appreciate the visual imagery of these couple of panels. it does a good job of conveying the trapped and terrified state of mind persephone was in because of apollo.

ALBERT BOOM!!!! Ophelia ref was supposed to be up next but the universe decided it hated me actually and killed the file for that :(

more in depth info about my goofy guy below the cut!!!!!

probably the core of Albert's everything is how lonely he is :(. he's definitely built a shell of hostility around himself. cause people can't push him away if he does it first!!!! right!!!!!! he puts a LOT of his (dwindling) energy into keeping up this "too cool for you! bitter! angry!" persona.

beneath the insults that sounded cooler in his head, Albert's a goober who likes cheesy old comics and videogames and cargo shorts and his bike. when he first meets Jinny and Ophelia, he's just as prickly to them as he is to everyone else. but over time and many goofy shenanigans later, he learns that he doesn't have to deal with everything alone. maybe. :)

transparent Bert also!!!!!
