    • Thanks! I’m glad someone noticed it. The wallpaper is meant to represent the garden of Eden, with the the lion laying down with the lamb, the killer whale with the dolphin, and of course the tyrannosaurus with the triceratops… There are so many hidden details and intended meanings in all the pages of this comic. I can’t believe how much patience I once had for drawing these things, and how much misplaced confidence that people would take the time to notice them!

  8. Yes, I also like this. Very operatic. And we all know that Baroque opera and Venetian art are a marriage made in heaven.

    • Thanks. I’m moving back a little in this direction for my next project, in that it’s an original story. The few publishers I heard back from when I submitted this comic suggested that it might be a little too baroque for the current graphic-novel-heavy comics market, which favours sparse drawing styles and single sentences of dialogue spread out over dozen of panels. So I guess I’ll be aiming towards some kind of happy medium.

    I love the detail in these drawings, together with the style, the story and the overall composition! Beautiful work!
