My biggest inspiration is Bill Waterson (Calvin and Hobbes). His ability to tell a story is just awe inspiring, all the way down to character design, color, and composition. He truly is a master. My sense of humor is more or less shaped by Gary Larson (the far side). I love how dark his comics can be, and yet the art is never really... well.. dark. His style contrasts so well with his message I can't help but be in love with it.
Artistically, Mike Mignola (Hell Boy) is currently my obsession.. his shape design melts my brain in the most blissful way.
With all that said, don't get your hopes up too high by my little project lol. I just posted episode two today but I have lots in store for the future.
I'm learning so much about comics and I'm enjoying every bit of it.

My Story was actually a short story I did in 8th grade and really got attached to it.
I was working and perfecting it for years!
At first it was absolute garbage, lol, and all the characters were badly written but I tinkered with them for awhile and here we are. I changed most of the characters names and designs but the main character Matts Dietrich stayed the same and, I changed more of their designs recently too but that is not revealed yet because they aren't in any scenes yet.

tbw I thought I was going to give up on this due to so many set-backs but I haven't abandoned this piece of work yet.

Honestly my own radicalization as I grew up? I was always a fan of manga and anime, mostly shonen, I was a very hyped up kid and with time, learning about minority struggles and politics then living in Brasil during a far right government while learning of my own bissexuality, lack of gender, adhd while Dating an autistic trans boy...
Idk, it was a lot of shocks and realizations that just transformed my art from "yeah, swords and fights are cool" into a more "oh, wow, we should fight for our liberation". Then I rediscovered One Piece and it tackles a lot of anti fascism in a way that I really enjoy, but It goes into a very positive route of "yeah!!! Fight for your freedom, fuck the police" while I was kinda... Tired? It's tiring to be a minority, to fight so much, to live through huge political/historical events, it's tiring to watch your friends grow up to be less and less joyful and more and more angry and sad at the state of stuff, to have kids around you that are living so happy and recognize that happiness and wonder in your past self but not on your adult self. My comic is... About that lol it's a shonen manga about witches resisting oppression, about how important and revolutionary it is to be happy and joyful when everything sucks for you but how hard it is to keep your good feelings when you start to notice society wants you dead. It's about the importance of radicalization, of why you should fight, but also... The price of it. What you pay of yourself, what kind of beautiful beliefs you have start to lose strength when you notice that maybe the only life you can know is fighting...

Uh...
