So I lent into the Greek Tragedy of it all and used the conceit used in ‘Mighty Aphrodite’ of a Greek Chorus as narrators in the modern world - with the same masks but dressed as people you’d see on Shepherd’s Bush high street
Sammy’s foil was also a Blume homage - mixing the hyperactive chaos magnet of Peter’s kid brother Fudge with the flamboyant clever clogs vibe of Sheila Tubman - Sammy’s sister Felicity ‘Flick’ Hoffman was born
I liked & totally zoinked that book & series dynamic of the nebbish older sibling with an out of control zany younger sibling. Mixing Blume’s Peter Hatcher with ol’ skool Peter Parker angst - Sammy Hoffman was born!
....told with the same ambition of literary form & emotional depth that Flaubert, James & Tolstoy gave their middle class white characters. It was wildly thrilling seeing the environment I existed in & lives I knew being communicated in the style of those books I read at school
drawing listening to the ‘Raised By Wolves’ companion podcast (best scifi show in ages) and @colebrax excellent takes on the series so far
Only JUST figured out how to do time lapse videos! That early blue sketchup is comedy janky 😂
