Razie Razoon

Razie Razoon is another comic that Matt and I worked on together. (Again, he wrote the story, and I drew the images.) This is a brief 2-page story about a human and alien employed as sanitation workers, and it touches on the discrimination that the human encounters in the alien's city. I didn't finish the drawings for the second panel, but the lettering was completed, so the story can still be read.

Elizabeth, Fat Girl

Back in 2003, my husband Matt and I collaborated on a few comic book stories.  He wrote them, and I drew them.  I am a fan of comics, especially off-the-beaten-path stories. As I am not a comic book artist by any stretch of the imagination (drawing and lettering comics takes special skills I have never developed), I only completed one of the stories: Elizabeth, Fat Girl. As you will see, the drawing is stiff.  I borrowed heavily from sources like Daniel Clowes' Ghost World and the Hernandez Brothers' incredible Love & Rockets series.
Below is Elizabeth, Fat Girl:
