Vulvarine

AYYYYY I know it’s been a while (like a long while) but here’s a new comic.  Things have been busy since I moved to Baltimore.  I’m not going back to a regular schedule yet, but at least I can hopefully start putting out some comics again.

So like it says at the bottom, I quit that job.  I won’t get into the details, but it ended up being a toxic environment where they did not give me what was discussed in the interview. Since I missed last week (because I was in NY conducting… business) I did a little bonus at the bottom of a colored version of the first panel.

The day I met my solemate

If it seems like I should have posted this comic sooner, you’re probably right.  This night has certainly been on my mind for a long while.  We’re entering the third week of presidency now and it’s no less a horror show than the first hour.  I encourage each and every one of you to fight however you can.  Donate to the ACLU, march in protests, make phone calls (this makes it easier https://5calls.org/ ).  Do what you can and take a break to avoid burnout.  We are not done.  We are never done.  I love all of you.

the fight is harder each year.

gotta keep going because nothing ever stops.

Here is a b-b-b-bonus! A recent commission I did based on a much rougher self portrait I did a while ago.  Watercolor, India ink, colored pencil. I’M CURRENTLY OPEN FOR COMMISSIONS!  I can do stuff like this, I can do stuff like my comic, I can do other stuff entirely.  Send me an email and we can talk about what you want and what it would cost.  Email on my main page emilylady.com
