Watching Wendy Pini draw ElfQuest is magical! I finally started a YouTube Channel and uploaded a few videos I created of Wendy doing character sketches for everyone who hasn't had the good fortune to attend a con and see this in person.
Here's the first one, which shows Wendy drawing Savah for a very lucky fan. Richard's banter with fans in the background is a fun bonus.
dumb outdated meme thing i made over a year ago but never posted, new revised edition
characters included based on the criteria of “i could think of something mildly amusing to say about them”
(lest i overexplain the joke: number 189 of the “700 Hobo Names” in “The Areas of My Expertise” by John Hodgman is “Skywise the Sexual Elf.” god i love the 700 Hobo Names)
This is incredible. Spit my coffee out at “probably smells like wet dog” LOL
If ever an #Elfquest character was an enigma, it’s Dre-Ahn. http://elfquest.com/dre-ahn/
What wild animal has an external ear very similar to a human’s?
So proud of all the young people letting their voices be heard on the gun violence public health crisis we face in this country, and for taking on the extremist NRA and the politicians they've purchased that are trying to silence them. I'm inspired by everyone marching today across the country. Keep shouting! Change is coming. #march4ourlives #enough #changeiscoming
The very last issue of #Elfquest Final Quest came out a few weeks ago and just realized I never did my final #sELFie. Huge congrats to Wendy and Richard Pini on #FortyYearsofPointedEars and a satisfying finale to this chapter of @elfquestcomics.
Here’s a good example of Elfquest refusing to shy away from the savagery of nature, in direct contrast to the apparent cuteness of the elves and their wolves. The series’s almost ligne claire style causes its critics to make an error in judgement, seeing the book as childish and cute.
The only childish aspect is the purity, although perhaps not quite innocence, of the protagonists, and the style is a means to convey this world view. But part of their place in the world is in step with the savagery of nature as much as its beauty, and there is no attempt to disguise this, or soften the more brutal scenes through style or obfuscation. Thus the menace of these dogs would not be out of place in Game Of Thrones- and there is more than a little of Ramsay Bolton’s sadism in the character of the Djun- therefore ensuring that readers are fully aware of the threat these creatures pose now, which can only grow under the evil spells of Winnowill.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! Here’s my warmup sketch from yesterday– featuring this dashing young lad seen in the last page of ElfQuest– inspired by one of my favorite creators of all time, Wendy Pini.

A comiXologist recommends: ElfQuest
by: Jen Keith
Long ago, the High Ones came to a world sparsely populated by tribes of superstitious humans. Descended from these otherworldly creatures – these aliens – were the Wolfriders: a group of hunter-gatherer elves who found friends and mounts in the wolves that howled at the two moons in the sky. Cutter, with the blood of ten chiefs flowing through his veins, protects his pack against all threats, human and troll alike, while seeking the kin he longs to connect with.
ElfQuest has it all. Fantasy and science fiction alongside romance and action. At once you have space travel and magic mingling with trolls and fairies. There are soulmates found through the Elven phenomenon of “Recognition” and battles raged for life and home. The elves face a changing world of politics and cruelty yet it only strengthens their bonds as friends and family.
ElfQuest is a groundbreaking, indie series co-created by a woman in the 70s featuring women not only healing and loving but fighting, leading, and standing as equals in positions of power. The men and women of ElfQuest are beautiful, smart, strong, and fierce with relationships and emotions that run deep.
It may have come out decades ago, but it is still relevant to today and today’s readers. The elves face fear from humans who, unlike the Wolfriders, find difficulty in living harmoniously with nature. When meeting their own kind, they find both open-armed acceptance and fierce scorn for their differences. Like I said: it has it all.
I owe a lot to the creators, Wendy and Richard Pini, as it was among the first comic series I ever picked up. It’s the kind of series that, no matter how many ways I own it, I want to buy every version I see, and these gorgeously rendered black and white omnibuses are no exception. As a creator, I know these books influenced me more than I may ever know; as a fan, I still get the same warm/fuzzy feeling as when I first read about the Wolfriders and their adventures.
Having the first and second omnibuses and Final Quest Vol. 1 at my digital beck and call was one of my personal highlights of having Dark Horse on comiXology. I’m pleased to invite you to join the pack and pick up ElfQuest today.

Wendy Pini's final ElfQuest cover honors her first cover to feature the fan-favorite fantasy series stars.
ElfQuest: Final Quest issue #22 is here. With the series coming to a close in just two more issues, this one is a hard-hitter that’s pivotal to the entire 40-year saga. More at http://elfquest.com/new-issue-final-quest-22-is-here/
@tvcrimeprod getting into #costume for #Halloween party....
It's finally getting chilly enough overnight to break out my Chewie robe in the mornings!
I’m kind of sad I never did anything for elfquest before! One of the first comics I ever read, I still have volume one. A sketch for it and boy has it been a while since I drew wolves, was totally weird to do so again, almost had DA flashbacks
This is great! Elfquest is still going strong too! www.elfquest.com
What better #Elfquest character to celebrate for #Eclipse2017 than Sun Toucher? http://elfquest.com/sun-toucher/
