The Black Squirrels of Washington, D.C.

Well, I’ve been working on this comic for quite a while, but I couldn’t quite finish it before I went up to CCS for my portfolio review, and then I lost a lot of the original steam behind it after I talked about it with Steve Bissette. However, he advised me to finish it for my application, and so I did. I liked the idea of it being the front and back of a single page, but it was clear that it needed a third page. To give it more of the flavor my other comics have (if we’re being generous), I printed it out and drew in the rest to scale and scanned it back in. Like my first two comics, this is all non-fiction reportage. The final product is available here and the comics page as a PDF.
