A sample page from a 12 page comic called Ahuizotl which appeared in the 2011 Spera preview comic and is now featured as a short in the hardback Spera Vol. 1, alongside longer works by Kyla Vanderklugt, Hwei, Emily Carroll and Olivier Pichard. The book sees these four artists retell the Spera story which was originally told online by considerably more artists including myself. It also features a bunch of shorter one-off stories, of which mine is one of them.
Ahuizotl will be online in full at spera-comic.com at some point (I’m excited to share it, it’s got a couple of my personal favourite pages I’ve ever done in it), but until then you will have to seek out the book (see above – cover art by Afu Chan). You can buy it from Archaia here or look for it in your local comic shop.


















Great lines on the Spera excerpt. What did you use to ink that?
Thanks! Just a Pentel brush ben.
