Superhero In A Coma
I know, I know, it’s serious. Green Arrow & Black Canary #4 is on sale this week, and marks a turning point for the Arrow family. Connor’s been shot thru the heart, but who’s to blame? Who gives love a bad name? It looks grim, but the story ain’t over yet… This was a difficult issue to draw, partly because Judd’s script was so effective and moving, and partly because it reminded me that I’ve spent too much time around hospitals this past year. The plus side is that it was pretty easy to get reference — check out the Foley bag on Connor! So worth it.
In other sad news, with this issue our colorist extraordinaire, Trish Mulvihill, is moving on to other projects. We’ll miss her terribly, but wish her the best. I’ve seen little peeks of her next big book (with Lee Bermejo!) and it’s a beauty.

Thanks, man. C’mon, I thought Roy’s faux-hawk was much better than whatever he sports in JLA!
The new colorist is {drumroll) … David Baron! Totally different from Trish, still totally awesome.
