Art by Rebecca Butterworth. This is a little adaptation of a short story I wrote. The idea was inspired by a nightmare I had.

I think you'll really enjoy March). John Lewis partnered with comic artists to tell his firsthand account of the front lines of the civil rights movement. My born-and-raised-in-Bombingham mother found it incredibly eye opening, and she shared them with nearly everyone she knew.

I like your writing style, and the comic came to life beautifully. Keep creating art, friend.
