John Wick: Divina Commedia

chapter 1-1

ABANDON ALL HOPE

YE WHO ENTER HERE

In the eternal, boundless silence, on a desolate wasteland, John Wick must find the happiness he seeks.

1-1，1-2，2-1，2-2

Finally！I can post the first chapter of this comic! I’m still working hard on the comic, so I haven’t had time to check the dialogue for errors. If you spot any grammatical mistakes or spelling errors, I’ll correct them in the final version.)

Just some practice with new brushes

Sometimes I do get a bit disappointed with this platform's recommendation algorithm.The comics I spent a lot of time on get barely a handful of clicks, whilst quick sketches I drew years ago suddenly goes viral overnight.

To be honest, it really takes the edge off my motivation to keep posting new work.*sigh*

Just another day on internet，I guess

Hi - I hope you are doing well :)

I’m really sorry to bother you but I spotted a typo rereading your fabulous John Wick comic. And as I think you discussed getting it in print I thought it could be helpful to correct it ahead of that? I hope that’s ok, and really sorry if that’s unwelcome.

Take care

Hi, thank you very much. Actually, I’ve spotted loads of mistakes whilst proofreading over the last few days😬😬I’m currently going through the sample book to check for errors; I really find it difficult to spot the problems on the computer.

Thank you so much for pointing this out; I’ll make sure to correct them all before the final version is released.

John Wick Drabble

Warning: Blood, violence, death, and ANGST

Unedited. GIF not mine

John did not mean to. He truly did not. He regretted it, but it was expressed only in a fleeting frown and surprise mixed with something heavy and dim in his eyes before the mask of impassivity returned as swiftly as it fell when his target's wife came in the line of fire.

To most, she would be just another mishap— they might smoke a cigarette or two, inhale a white line for the night and forget it. But John knew this moment would stay with him. Press into the edges of his dreams and haunt him for a long time, as every past 'mishap' haunted him.

At thirty-one, John Wick knew the world he operated in— emotions had no place, pain was information, a single lapse could be one's last, and innocents would get hurt one way or another. Most accepted that, some enjoyed it. John Wick followed his own code. No innocents would be hurt. He tried to follow that, but sometimes, he found himself staring at his hands more often after completing a task.

John wanted to screw his eyes shut, but could not afford to; his target was armed. He met the man's gaze again. The hit was under an exclusive contract. The man, though, was not looking up at John or preparing to shoot, despite the gun within his reach. His eyes were fixed on his wife's body on the floor.

John gulped. He still had a job to finish. He cocked his gun, aiming it at the man. The sound caught the man's attention, and he turned to John. His eyes had something John had never seen before. Something that made him falter, just for a fraction of a moment, though. There was no fear in the man's eyes. But there was something fused with anguish that John could not pinpoint.

The man took in a breath and coughed up some more blood. This hit had already turned messy enough; John wanted to get over it.

"One day…" he began. John knew he should simply shoot, but he could not bring himself to do so at the moment. "One day…may you fall in love. May you love her so much that you see her face when you close—" he gulped and took in another laboured breath"...you see her face when you close your eyes…and may you be unable to do a fucking thing but watch her die—" his head snapped at his side and hit the wall as blood splattered on it

—

John wakes with a sharp inhale. For a moment, he cannot remember where he is until the steady beeps register in his brain. Oh, right, he is at the hospital. It is mostly dark, but the nightlight casts a dim glow around the room. He leans against the couch, looking at Helen's form on the hospital bed.

John loves his wife so much that he sees her when he closes his eyes. Helen is the name that he whispers before sleep takes him, and when he wakes up.

John Wick, the man whose name is whispered in reverence and fear among the dark corners and lit rooms of the Continental.

John Wick, who has earned a near-mythical reputation before retiring from the underworld.

John Wick, who is among the few who managed to walk out from the shadows of the High Table in one piece.

John Wick, who has completed the impossible task for love.

That John Wick now sits near the hospital bed, watching the light of his life fade away. The man's words echo in his mind as he takes a shaky breath.

He can do nothing but watch his Helen slowly wither away, and he wonders if he ever truly managed to escape his past life.

I’ve got it！Accidentally sprayed too much at first, got hit by it╮(￣▽￣"")╭

but once it settled down, it‘s much better. A little bit sweet, with a hint of coolness. My sense of smell isn’t very good, so this is the best I can describe it (

It would be quite unusual if John smell like this

just discovered your art and I’m OBSESSED. Very very interested in your comic if you’re down to clown about it ! (Okay if not!) just wanted to let you know that your art is crazy good and I’m looking forward to seeing more !

Thank you so much! I’m making steady progress on the comic and hope to finish it by mid-April! Here’s an update! And my comic aims to tell a story about what happens after John’s death，you could think of it as a little mythological tale? Chad and the others have made John wick kinda a modern myth, so I wanted to take that concept a little bit further in this comic…

Anyway, it’s a story of our dear John’s quest to find Helen!

a small John

And some updates on the john wick comic: I've finished all 99 pages of line art and am now starting the detailing... Honestly, this is way more exhausting than I anticipated.
