The Wanderer and the Witch's Daughter

This is an old comic I made long before Bianca. I'm sure you can see some of the artistic style and even story ideas of Bianca and the Satanic Witches taking their first shape here.

The idea was to bring together two legendary figures of Russia, one from myth and the other from history: Baba Yaga and Rasputin. I was so proud of this idea... until I reread some old issues of Hellboy and found out Mike Mignola had already done the same thing eons ago. Well, you live and learn, I guess...

I still like some ideas in this very short story. I hope you do too.

Androktones.

Once upon a time, something like ten years ago, I tried doing a comic based on ancient Greek mythology. It was called Androktones and was about the amazons - and somewhat of Herakles, who meets the female warriors.

Inanna

A pinup unrelated to Bianca and the Satanic Witches.

She is slightly influenced by Mesopotamian mythology that I was reading quite a lot about a year ago. I drew this when my light table was broken and I couldn't do more Bianca at the time. So the ink work is drawn on the same paper and the pencils erased by hand. Which is a bitch!
