Scandi-Merica #14 - Loki Net

 

The residents of Scandimerica meet at the Alþing to discuss what action to take regarding the intruding fisherman.

This is the fifth strip in the first Scandi-Merica story arc that stretches across several comics, read the previous here

I loved the process of creating this comic, between the writing, drawing, and inking/coloring. The first frame is one of my favorites, and probably my favorite background frame I've drawn. I really captured what I was visualizing, and between the perspectives, details, I feel like the energy of an ancient Alþing (meeting place in medieval Icelandic law/governance) comes through. I love how the artworks that adorn the walls inside look, and they came out in a few different styles. Also this is the first Scand-Merica where I directly reference events in one of the stories from The Prose Edda, where Loki shapeshifts into a Salmon to try and escape punishment, but the gods/goddesses catch him with a net, and what an appropriate synchronicity.

All art, writing, penciling, inking, and coloring created by me.
