So I draw comics sometimes. Not as often as I'd like, but... Here's the latest page in Goldenbird (chapter 7 of 8, check the website for the previous chapters).
Goldenbird is set in a fictional, disputed port by the Adriatic Sea. The year is 1920 and anything is possible. Underneath the sunny and careless surface, something unsettling is stirring...
I've been working on this labour of love and silliness since I was a baby (i.e. a PhD student). The first print zine was self-published 20 years ago. Crazy!
