There’s a lot more but these comics are definitely in my #comicsDNA from kid to my teenage years.

My #comicsDNA PART 2...the ingredients for a #ZORNOWMUSTBEDESTROYED
These are the comic books that helped me become a comic book fan and helped me realize I wanna make a comic book someday.

💛Here's my #comicsdna💛
1/ Nakayoshi serial, where I read Sailormoon, Magic Knights Rayearth, Card Captor Sakura, & many others
2/ LOVELESS, informed much of my style
3/ Weekly Shonen JUMP, got me addicted to Naruto & BLEACH
4/ Tenchi Muyo!, such gorgeous designs & stylization
So I love storytelling, and I love comics, but I've never really had the opportunity to really delve deep into a long form story until recently.
I'm working on one right now with a fantastic artist, and I can't wait to share it with you all
Here's what it's #comicsDNA looks like.
#comicsDNA 💕 here’s some big formative moments for me
1) first manga love, late 90s
2) intro to western comics, early 00s
3) first time i saw someone who looked like me in a comic (changed how i thought about the medium), 2006
4) first webcomic love, opened a whole new world!
My #comicsDNA can be summed up in two syllables: Nineties. I didn't have access to a comic book shop growing up. So I had random issues of random stories. But hell if I didn't read these issues over and over and over again. #comics
#comicsDNA
More broadly:
- Newspaper strips
- Scott Pilgrim
- A couple few manga
- Webcomics
Your boy’s #comicsDNA:
Watterson for the imagination and heart
Romita Jr. for the storytelling Moebius for the sense of line and color
McCay for the wonder
(Clearly, I like to set impossibly high bars for myself to reach).
P Much Current: String Theory is my favorite web comic https://t.co/XckgRlJgKA go read it. Redline, Satoshi Kon, and other anime spectacles challenge my visual vocab, the 6 issue run of Prez is something I still think about to this day. #comicsDNA
