Travis Millard

I thought Julie Doucet drew these amazing portraits, but aha. They're by a dude named Travis Millard. My mistake!

They're from a catalog of a UK comics exhibition that Erica got me for my birthday. (Thanks, Erica!)



So genius. This second one is the image I kept thinking of when I'd hear someone gleefully say February was over. I love February! I love winter! I know, it's weird, but there you have it.

I can stare at both these illustrations for a very long, appreciative time.

Also, it's impossible to post today without mentioning that dumb effing idiot Eliot Spitzer. WTF?! I mean, W-T-flying-F?!

I've been trying to think of what that reminds me of and finally it came to me -- the boar demon from the beginning of Princess Mononoke. I can't find a great picture but this gives you a sense.

oh yes! And there's also a bit of Medusa thrown into it! A transcultural image....
