#this is. the most undercooked stage of mal possible. like in college he was briefly almost thin (or at least not noticably fat)

💃 for Malcolm

Okay so like. He lived through the 90s lmao, so here's Mal a little past college age, like mid 20s. Tbh i did not do my math beforehand and was thinking that he was still in college in the early 90s, but no, this is a man with a job. But it's a programming job for some random shovelware trash game studio so he's not like. Trying any harder than any other mid 20s dipshit to be an adult.

Back when i was first nailing down my design for mal, i did have a solid progression of what he looked like through the years then i proceeded to almost never do anything with it because i realized i didnt like writing comics and only barely tolerated drawing them so i gave up on the idea of bringing people.more into the narrative that way. But! I had fun with this! This is the fun part about having a lot of stuff worked out about a character. Just having a good jumping off point when a new avenue of inspiration opens up
