I’m currently trying to work out what stories I want to tell next year. I have Solver 9 and 10 set for January to March, and a print miniseries due in the spring, but beyond that my slate is empty. Everything I’ve done over the last three years has come out of the confusion of the early pandemic, where I was very productive, but I can feel the weird, shut-in energy of that period fading fast now and I am looking to find a new direction. I have a vague sense of what I want to do but it lacks a shape, my job over the next few weeks is to pin it down.

In any case, my work for 2022 is over. I’ve finished drawing Solver 9 and writing #10, ready to return to my desk on Jan 2nd. I’m sure I’ll have a few bits to share here before the new year as I am seldom idle. Here’s one to be getting on with. Trying out a new Clip Studio pen.

Was the surprise return of Shauna part of that Covid energy or a later addiion?

That reunion was not part of that era's thinking but it still derives from the stories I've made since we were all made to hide indoors for months.
