My Throat An Open Grave by Tori Bovalino

[lo-andbehold]

I’m so emotional about dinosaur stuffed animals,,, there are these creatures, extinct long before any of us were alive, but we found their bones and their eggs and their footprints. And we made drawings and models of what they could’ve looked like. And we made them into stuffed animals so we could hold them. We made them soft so we could love them. I’m sobbing

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled “immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]

a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”

Approximately 190 million years ago, a great float of Attenborosaurus swiftly navigate their pelagic environment in their hunt for fish. - Attenborosaurus is an extinct and mainly piscivorous marine reptile that existed during the early Jurassic. It is a comparatively primitive pliosaurid, closer related to the short-necked plesiosaurian marine reptiles than actual plesiosaurs. Originally, the holotype specimen was thought to be a plesiosaur in 1881, but was assigned to the Attenborosaurus genus by Robert T. Bakker in 1993, thus becoming its type species- A. conybeari. -

The original remains of the holotype specimen were bombed and destroyed during World War II, with the only remaining insight into this animal coming from the cast made by William Johnson Sollas. - 'Attenborosaurus' is named after and in honor of Sir David Attenborough, who turned 99 earlier this month.

Tupandactylus imperator with Ginkgo huolinhensis. Both species from the Early Cretaceous. There is an interesting paper which discusses how pterosaur pycnofibres may be synonymous with bird feathers featuring T. imperator. Cool stuff!

Colours and patterns were inspired by toucans, various parakeets and monarch butterflies :)

Hello, today is my birthday, and I would like to share a comic I made in the last year with you. It's called Broomistega and Thrinaxodon.

This comic was originally printed with yellow, fluorescent pink, light teal, and violet risograph inks. Physical copies are available in my shop.
