I keep thinking of this dialogue so, naturally, I put silly comments to it

Bro thinks he's an anime girl/j

I need to know if someone has the original text how he actually acts because I'm afraid that the translation I have of the book is a bit inaccurate or smth, I need someone to answer me if he actually speaks to the reader going like "Oh and you won't believe this, dear viewer" because every time it happens during Inferno and Purgatory made me laugh so hard. Dante you would have loved being a Vloger.

I love how most of the paintings and illustrations Dante is so sassy and diva while Virgilio is so chad.

Out this week: Godzilla vs. America: Texas (IDW, $7.99): 

The kaiju city-smashing anthology tour hits the Lone Star State, and since everything is bigger here in Texas, Godzilla isn’t content with just one city. This 48-page oversized issue features four 10-page stories by Texas-based comics creators, celebrating the state’s comics community while simultaneously destroying it.

See what else is coming to your local comic shop this week!

I love purposefully rage baiting pretentious classicists obsessed with the western canon by calling Dante’s divine comedy a self insert yumeship RPF fanfic

Happy Dante Day everyone!

Drew this because I'm rereading the Inferno for like the seventh time now for a class, and Dante and Virgil still manage to put me through the wringer each and every time, especially with their interactions in Purgatorio. Been a little under the weather mental health wise too, so I focused on making these drawings a little more sappy and sweet.
