TV Review: The Avengers ’68 Set 5
In 1961, a new show hit the airwaves in Britain, The Avengers. The main character was Dr. David Keel (Ian Hendry) whose wife had been murdered. He’s recruited by spy John Steed (Patrick McNee) to be an expert consultant in exchange for help avenging his spouse. After the fairly gritty first season, Mr. Hendry departed for a movie career and Steed became the main…

Book Review: Dead Men’s Plans by Mignon G. Eberhart
Sewal Blake is the stepdaughter of Julius Minary, the child of his first wife. Only a few years into their marriage, Sewal’s mother died, and Julius almost immediately remarried. She bore him a daughter, Amy, and a son, Reg, before passing away herself. Bereft and knowing nothing about raising children himself, Julius reached out to a friend of…
Lol. Imagine how Brom must have felt when he realized that after all the trauma and tragedy he had gone through, after all the fights and wars and the horrible losses je had to endure he settled down in a sweet little village to keep an eye on his son. And his son, that little idiot, not just became a dragon rider but also gave his dragon the same name as Broms own late dragon.
I mean… haha, destiny is a real bi*ch.
Excuse me I need to cry for a bit.

Me, Myself, and My Pencils | Inheritance Magazine
This is a very personal piece for me.
Usually when I contribute to Inheritance, its providing the art for someone else’s story. This time, it was my story being told. (Which by the way is a very weird thing for me, because I don’t think that I’ve done anything particularly notable, like definitely not enough to merit an article.) I’ve had a very long and complicated relationship with art. Most of my life its been something that I do, but not something to pursue seriously. It’s been a struggle to overcome the underlying guilt about spending time drawing instead of doing more “meaningful” things. But in recent years, God has been showing me that Art too can be a calling.
I wrote and drew this comic about some of my jumbled and confusing thoughts. The accompanying article is written by Adaobi.

Hidden Spiritual Gifts, Inheritance Magazine #34
I got to illustrate an article by my real-life friend Crystal! It talks about her experience of feeling like she had no spiritual gifts because she felt that encouragement, service, and teaching were all not for her. Later though, as she began to develop her cooking skill for different reasons, she found that cooking was a way she could serve God and bring people together.
I took this story and translated it into a circus setting because circuses performers are fun to draw! So here we have the story of a concession worker who at first is sad about not having stage talent but later learns that her food talents are appreciated by everyone. Read the whole article here!
Thanks EIC Daniel and AD John!

I was relistening to Eragon audiobooks this past few weeks and finished Inheritance yesterday and got a bit (= a lot) emotional about it so I decided to redraw this old picture of mine from when I first read the books, just because I like the image of Eragon and Saphira resting and wanted to see how much my art changed in all the years. judging from the old exam papers I discovered in the sketchbook I was 15 or 16 so it’s like. 6 or 7 years now (:’D). I have. no idea what those silvery. designs. are on Saphira and I think they happened most likely because younger me was very excited about having a silver marker :D but they’re also Fun and I kind of wish I had the silver marker now :D. in the newer picture I decided to change up the way they’re facing just because it was more comfortable to draw and looked better in that way and I also decided to add a background (which I really didn’t when I was younger. my old sketchbooks are mostly one character floating in huge white space and it’s a bit sad :’D) I’m very happy about the progress I made in all those years and can’t wait where I’ll get next :3

Cover Art | Inheritance by Elizabeth Acevedo
They tell me to “fix” my hair.
And by fix, they mean straighten, they mean whiten;
but how do you fix this shipwrecked
history of hair?
In her most famous spoken-word poem, author of the Pura Belpré-winning novel-in-verse The Poet X Elizabeth Acevedo embraces all the complexities of Black hair and Afro-Latinidad—the history, pain, pride, and powerful love of that inheritance.
Paired with full-color illustrations by artist Andrea Pippins in a format that will appeal to fans of Mahogany L. Browne’s Black Girl Magic or Jason Reynolds’s For Everyone, this poem can now be read in a vibrant package, making it the ideal gift, treasure, or inspiration for readers of any age.

“To take from one, because it is thought that his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, — the guarantee to every one of a free exercise of his industry, & the fruits acquired by it.”
–Thomas Jefferson(source)
