jah!

Hi there and thanks for you question.

In all honesty that is a question for my co-creator Lili Chin. While we worked in tandem on all of the designs, French Twist was all her. My take is that yes - he uses lipstick to accentuate his mime persona.

I love the design too, and it was very important in the development of Mucha Lucha!, as up until then we (as lucha libre purists) had been keeping the mask designs and personas fairly grounded in the world of professional lucha libre. French Twist was one of the first designs that pushed things outside the box for us in terms of look and character.

As for his origins, I remember the writer of one of the early episodes had come up with a bunch of names for background characters in the classroom, and French Twist was one. There was no description of the character, just a name. In a moment of inspiration Lili took it upon herself to design him as a Marcel Marceau French mime, giving us the character we know today.

I have a question, Are there any updates with the upcoming return of the return of el malefico comic? if so, how many characters are gonna be in the comic? (i really hope seeing midcarda, lonestar or mama in there 🙏🏼)

That is all for now.

Thank you.  Yes, EVERY day is a lucha day.

The El Malefico comic is ongoing.  You may have to be a little patient with me as I am working with Osteoarthritis in both my hands, so I can't work as fast as I could before.

As I mentioned, I have plotted out a start, middle and end, but how I get there is dictated by the drawings.  I am planning on a Headmistress/Hasbeena/Midcarda story arc, but everything else will just fall into place.  The three mascaritas will of course be there, but I'm not planning on them being the main focus.

And again just to be clear, this is a no-budget project which means if any paid work comes along, I do have to give that preference.

In advance of the 'Rudopolis' board game coming out this year, I thought I'd combine the existing characters of Mucha Lucha!, Rudo By Night, Los Campeones & Super Lucha! into a brand new poster OR art print at TEEPUBLIC

(Discounted for the next 2 days)
