DC Nuclear Winter Special #1 – “Last Daughters” (2018)

THIS. IS. EVERYTHING.
This is the type of Kara Zor-El story arch I crave and will beg for! Look at the character development in just two pages of this comic! The ache it creates when Kara refuses to put her own child through what her own parents put her through. She knows the horror – the absolute torment – it is for a child to land on a completely strange planet and be brought up by a species different from her own. How terrifying it is. And she refused to put her child through that pain.
And don’t even get me started on how amazing Kara looks here!
this started out like, wanting to draw kara in that costume i drew sam in(i need to tweak it still for kara) and then went all over;; ending up getting down a few ideas for suits, like first drafts kinda things c:
I still miss sam, i like glow-y stuff, and some of brainy’s boots in the comics remind me of uggs
And oh, what an idea. I’ve been craving a real good sister battle since Season 1. This got me sopumped. I’ll put it on my list 📝
I was kinda sorta bummed I didn’t draw them in a more dynamic pose… but I still loved how this turned out. Alex’s blank stare and all.Hope you like it too!
Time: IIIIIIIIII didn’t keep track. It was less than five hours.
Keep those drawing prompts coming! 🙂 Winter break is coming soon and I plan to keep busy!
I’m trying to pitch this idea to myself to see if I like it, and I think I do. Working title right now is Home Beings. Inked the whole thing with a green gel pen because Why Not.
“it doesn’t matter what they do to us, you know? You look out for me, and I look out for you. Nothing really bad can happen as long as we have each other.”
