Working on the next chapter of “Will-o’-the-Wisp” between laundry loads & grading anatomy diagram assignments 🙎🏽‍♀️🐵👽🐱

We need better emojis for Sasquatches and mountain lions.

In the first panel, Argyle, a grey alien, is seen walking into his massive storage unit. In the foreground, Ursula stands in amazement, stunned by the room’s size. Hanging from the ceiling above them is Amelia Earhart’a missing airplane. In the second panel, Ursula says, “Whoa, Argyle, what all do you have in here?!” Argyle says, “Just stuff I’ve collected over the years” as he roots around in a wooden crate. Behind Ursula is the Ark of the Covenant from the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark.

That time Ursula got a glimpse inside Argyle’s storage unit.

Orick, a sasquatch, sits hunched over at a wooden table, holding a magnifying glass and an eye dropper filled with honey. On the table in front of him is a pair of tweezers, a spool of thread and a needle, a jar of honey, and 5 bees resting on tiny pillows. Other bees are flying around him. In the background, against the wall, is a wooden bee hive. The foreground is filled with white flowers.

Comic characters Orick, Ursula, Argyle and Leona are walking through a forest. Ursula is telling the others about a memory of a wood devil lurking outside her bedroom window when she was a child. She had always dismissed the memory as a nightmare, but after seeing wood devils as an adult, she is wondering if her childhood memory is a recollection of a real event. Her story is illustrated in a full-color flashback scene taking up two-thirds of the page.

Here's a page and some detail shots of an Orick & Argyle comic from last summer. I asked one of my friends for reference photos of her daughter's bedroom. That... unicorn dog(?)... was a detail I knew I needed to include the moment I saw it!
