drawing of the day bonus: iowa’s halloween costume
What better way to add to holiday fun than to waylay Jack’s (and everyone’s) Best Girl on her way to the Spookytown Ball? She’s Zatanna, of course. Iowa always goes as Zatanna. At the last minute, she couldn’t find her … Continue reading

minicomics live 2– post 31 (page 13, panel 2 revised pencils)
