Phoenix Blade @phoenixbladecomic.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

After polling folks her and irl, I did a combo of the two favs! Here’s a look at how the physical cover is going. Issue 2 is rolling out on our website phoenixbladecomic.com and substack.com/@phoenixblad... UPDATES EVERY FIRST OF THE MONTH!

Cover of Phoenix Blade Issue 2, with the main character in a lizard clown suit holding a sword in an aggressive manner at the viewer with flames behind

Back cover with sister Rabyn and Ren partying/dancing, tossing a bottle of alcohol between them. And description of the book reads: With the disappearance of the legendary Phoenix, the sun shines over the world no more… especially Rabyn’s world. Part-time circus clown, full-time nuisance, Rabyn yearns to feel as if her life matters, like her sister, Ren - the biggest star in the circus. Criminally underpaid, Rabyn and Ren down have enough money to make it in the cold-blooded land of Gondwana on their own. With no savings, they may have to return home to their crazy mother. Rabyn would do anything to keep that from going back, even if it means stealing from their reptilian ringmaster, Ivy. However, it doesn’t take long for Ivy to realize her money is missing, and for Rabyn to find herself launched into a mission she is entirely unprepared for as she learns the hard way what kind of person her boss really is.

Closer view of front cover. Main character in lizard clown suit holding a sword aggressively at the viewer with flames behind. Title: Phoenix Bald, Issue 2, by Najja Porter and Dashawn Mahone

The Kickstarter campaign for my Sonic and Kingdom Hearts-inspired fantasy-adventure comic book — ENDLESS FANTASIA — will be launching in LESS THAN 24 HOURS! Follow the pre-launch page to be notified when it goes live tomorrow morning! www.kickstarter.com/projects/206...

Promotional ENDLESS FANTASIA image that evokes '90s magazine ads, featuring artwork of Jack Flash throwing a punch at us by Adam Bryce Thomas.

At the top, it reads "Once upon a time...." in a fancy, fairy tale-style font. Jack's incoming fist is circled with red marker and beneath him it reads "THE END!" written in that same red marker.

I want to make a set of witch OCs whose familiars live in their hats.

A bust drawing of a witch who wears a large mossy witch hat with an oversized acorn teapot house at the top. A small white mouse is sitting in the opening of the teacorn house. The hat is also growing a bed of strawberries, and the witch is holding a mug of strawberry tea.

New character finished at last! Anzolo, the weird medieval guy. He's a demon in the form of a bronze lion who tempts alchemists with the offer of secret knowledge, but mostly makes deals so he can mooch off of them #oc #ocsky #characterart #refsheet #art #characterdesign #creaturedesign

Character reference sheet for Anzolo, the green lion. On the lower left of the page is a green lion based on medieval lion art. He has a long neck and strange human-like face, stubby legs with wavy tufts of fur, and a long tail. On the right he is baring his teeth and holding a flamberge, and also has wings. In the upper left he is sitting upright with a menacing wide-eyed expression, holding a red stone in one hand, and in the other a black-paged grimoire whose cover is yellow with a stylized eclipse on it. Both wings are spread and he has a large, eclipse-like halo behind his head. In the upper right is the color palette reference: red, yellow, green, brownish green, and brown. Also in the upper right are images of his eyes, which have red irises and a gold ring around the puil
