This may yet be a cover for this story (as I'm still working on some designs), or it may just be a nice sketch of her standing there. I'm currently working out some plot details for her prequel, since people seem to like her so much (and yet she does so very little in this story). Olivia, who will be doing the artwork for The Legend of Abraham prequel coming out right after this story arc, has shown eager interest to work on the prequel for both Sophia and Marielle.
It's going to be a challenge for her, since I've let slip some of the story elements that I was thinking about putting in there, but she seems up to the task. Now I just need to get off my lazy bum and do it!

You too can contribute to "Fan Art Fridays!" Fan Art will be displayed in the order that they are received, and each person who submits a piece of fan art will receive a mini-review like above. Please include a link to the comic you would like reviewed if you have multiple titles. Please send me fan art and links through a PM (or quack). :D
Fan Art Friday - Sketch of MarielleThe meeting between the two, finally after two long years. The swordsman has been hunting this man for ages, and it sounds like there may be more to his wife, Sophia, than we were originally lead to believe. I mean, you must be pretty important if the Cardinal knows who you are, right?
Also, what amazing things did Abraham do to warrant having a religion based on him? We'll find that out in the prequel, The Legend of Abraham, which will update on Mondays after this story arc - with beautiful artwork by the talented Olivia Kasle.
Preview sketches, promotional posters, and other teasers coming soon!
Chapter 6.6Oh snap, that guy just shot our Tojin assassin! This was a commentary about the depiction of Jesus in ALL modern paintings, books, crucifixes, etc. The guy was not white - he was Jewish. People have a funny habit of forgetting that, because the media has depicted him again and again as something else - a visual representation of something that he very simply was not and could not be.
But people sometimes get rather hostile when you mention that they're wrong. That's one of the themes here - just because the mainstream tells you something, doesn't mean that it's right.
