A couple of new freaks I've been cooking up for a medieval horror comic I've been developing called Gallant. This duo consists of a monk contracted by the church to hunt devils and a very strange knight who seems to be following him around.

what does she confess?

I'd be really interested to see how you handle McGinnis if/when you get to doing a backstory for her! I find her so interesting just in how... Evil she comes across? Not in an operatic or over the top way like most fictional villains, but in an extremely real way. The banality of it all.

I'm curious to see if you lean into that or try to find more of a sympathetic ember in there!

I can't guarantee that I'll make a backstory comic for every hero, but I agree that McGinnis is a pretty interesting character. One of my favorite comments on my Calico comic was a discussion as to whether she was worse than McGinnis as indirect killers: the personal betrayal or the apathetic mass murderer.

Personally I like exploring that kind of apathy (it's why I wrote the Calico comic the way I did), so while I don't think she feels that bad for the harm her work does, I don't think she's 100% comfortable with her deal under Fairfax. Her reasons are just not attached to morality.

I usually get the ideas for my comics by finding unanswered questions in a character's lore (why is Pocket afraid of their briefcase? how did Vindicta get her powers? what's the nature of rem's connection to haze?). The question that comes to mind for me with McGinnis is where her family is in all of this. She doesn't have many connections in general, she isn't even friends with a single other hero in the game. Considering Fairfax paraded her genius around when she was still a teen, the distinct silence about even parents is a little strange.

I'm finally done with this!

Been working on this for a while now, took longer than expected. Anyways, a little something for my favorite character who is technically not canon to the game's story 💔

There's something so intriguing about every rendition of the goat, there's nothing to them, no story, no personality beyond loud and a menace, only a "dark reflection" that's clearly hiding something darker, and I love what people's take on them are 💜

Anyways, go, my favorite goats!

Goats belong to: @heuheu-art , @souriki , @cult-of-the-iron-crown , @paintingpuff , @voidheartkisses , @llobulynxthecerval , @a-tomsk , me , @aveloka-draws , @7-ferrets-in-a-coat , @stychu-stych , @voidyam , @bogor-o and of course the canon goat
