I’m taking a bit of a hiatus to get ready for convention season. In the meantime, I’ll be running an old story I drew in 2008. The story was for Super Fantastica Comix, an anthology put together by my friend Dan Olson. The theme was “fowl or foul”. I had wanted to draw a farm story for some time, so I chose fowl. More on that as the story progresses.

I love how you drew the girl. It, to me, is very difficult to draw certain ages of children and I commend you on a job well done.
I loved this story Ryan.
I have to admit, this is one story where I look back and still think think it’s pretty good.
As for drawing children, I think the hardest part is getting a little variety. I have to fight the tendency to give all kids the same head-shape (the squat oval you see in the comic). I’m trying to work out a few more varied designs for the next Jack and Zack comic.
