| I noticed two main color themes in your portfolio; bright, bold, often complimentary palettes and softer, dark, subtle palettes. How did you find yourself drawn to these color choices? Inspiration? |

| Gender roles is a pretty hot topic in comics, hell in all entertainment right now, why are we so fascinated with this new character angle? |
Brian |
