The first four pages of the comic are ready. Every time I look at it, I feel both warm and sad 🥺❤‍🩹

I love James very much. Working on a comic book means a lot to me. 💘

I hope you enjoy it too, @jamesfitzjamesdotcom

Transcribing an 1851 letter in which John Barrow Jr says he's been tormented for years and he wishes he was with the Franklin Expedition wherever they are rather than to be in his present situation. YEAH, I'M FINE.😭😭😭

Historian Andrew Lambert: "John Barrow Jr had an emotional connection to the expedition." [The Gates of Hell, p. 206] YES HE DID. GUESS WHY, GUESS WHO?!

James Fitzjames with a kitty 😍

"My honey’s living so high

As the moon in the sky

Her floor is high – number five

‘My love, good night!’

My love is living so, so high." 🕊💔

Haha, my boy, he's so cute❤

Imagined myself by James's side in 1835, when he nearly lost his life. I wish I could have been there to comfort him, to touch him, to give him strength to fight…

I hope you like it, @jamesfitzjamesdotcom

A small piece of new art.

When James almost died of molaria, he was only 22 years old... He's so young on art, my dear 🥺❤‍🔥

I’ve actually wanted to create a story-driven art piece for a long time… The news about this sunshine still won’t let me go. Even his head wasn’t spared, his face… 🥺 I understand that people, out of despair and hunger, would go to great lengths. But I wish I could at least save his head and give him a proper burial 💔 James is a bright ray of light ☀; he’s been through so much, he deserves peace.

P.S. The art depicts me

While on the Euphrates Expedition, Fitzjames became very ill and almost didn't survive. He was lucky this time. On 12 October 1835, he wrote to his uncle Robert:

SO UH??? A THING JUST HAPPENED???? So while I waited for my bus to Belfast I decided to sit on the steps of Crozier’s childhood home and read his letters from May We Be Spared to Meet on Earth. While doing so, a very very nice woman came up to me and asked what I was reading and what I was in town for. Well it turns out she works in the building!! And when she heard I was in town just to see the statue and his home she offered to give me a tour of what she could!!!! Guys I almost started CRYING I GOT TO STAND IN THE PLACE HE GREW UP IM STILL SHAKING!! And they have a picture of his daguerreotype in the building too 😭😭😭

itterasshaijamesfitzjames

Wow 🥺❤❤❤

That feeling when it seems like you’re losing your mind... Constant struggles with socializing, but then James Fitzjames appeared in my life. Even though he lived about two centuries ago, he’s firmly stuck in my head...

And when I’m feeling down, it’s like I can hear his voice: "You can do it, darling, I’m here with you"... ❤

I love this sunshine, even though I can’t talk to him in person. It’s not good to idealize anyone, but... He’s my little star ⭐
