I’ve been wanting to draw #Starfire for a while now. It’s nice when I get different commission requests. Done in #CopicMarkers with #Posca pens and #gouache highlights.
It’s the last day of @supanovaexpo Brisbane today! I’m not taking on any more commissions(especially this big), but I have plenty of prints, giclées, sketchbooks & comics still available. Also don’t forget the Sketch-off this afternoon between @philiptanart @thecarlopagulayan and myself!
Below is my list of favorite episodes from Season Two of the DC Universe series, “TITANS”. Based on the D.C. Comics comic book team and created by Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns and Greg Berlanti; the series stars Brenton Thwaites, Anna Diop, Teagan Croft and Ryan Potter as the Titans:
FAVORITE “TITANS” SEASON TWO (2019) EPISODES
1. (2.05) “Deathstroke” - With the Titans in disarray, Dick and the team vow to do everything in their power to save the life of Jason Todd aka Robin from their old adversary, Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke. Gar Logan aka Beast Boy’s guilt over Jason’s kidnapping complicates the mission, while Rachel Roth aka Raven’s dark secret regarding her developing abilities continues to gnaw at her.
2. (2.08) “Jericho” - After the murder of Aqualad five years ago, the original Titans befriended Jericho Wilson, Deathstroke’s son. Realizing that Deathstroke’s devotion to his son might be a weakness, Titans leader Dick Grayson is eager to use the information against the former.
3. (2.06) “Conner” - A specimen of Project Cadmus named Conner escapes captivity and goes on the run with a dog and loyal friend named Krypto.
4. (2.03) “Ghosts” - With the re-emergence of Arthur Light aka Doctor Light, the old Titans reluctantly return to the Titans tower to strategize against their old enemy. But the secrets of the Titans’ past threaten to tear apart Dick’s newly formed team from within.
5. (2.05) “Aqualad” - The personal feelings of the old Titans team from five years ago started to bleed into their work. With the arrival of Deathstroke as their new nemesis, they began to question their destiny as heroes.
i just feel like people who call annakory “too violent” have a gross misunderstanding of koriand'r as a character, and very often try to push her into the aggressive/angry black woman stereotype. like there are MULTIPLE instances of kory in the comics only holding back from killing and violence because her FRIENDS, or most of the time dick, want her to.
case in point when franklin was killed: kory was ready to murder the person responsible but donna had to hold her back. when mirage captured her and sa’d dick, kory was ready to kill her and had to be cautioned more than once against doing so.
killing being taboo is an entirely earthly concept to kory - and one that isn’t even globally followed because there are various cultures and societies on earth that view murder as justified depending on the circumstances - and so expecting kory to vibe immediately with that is just so ridiculous?
especially knowing the culture of the vegan galaxy, more specifically tamaran where they’re one of the deadliest fighting races in said galaxy? NOT TO MENTION this girl has gone through all manners of torture, assault, abuse, and trauma from since childhood and has been straight up ending motherfuckers since she was before twelve. she is a WARRIOR.
and it’s also not like annakory was engaging in senseless acts of violence like a lot of people seem to assume. she only killed when she was attacked. only ever when she was provoked, just like comic!kory whenever she wasn’t on earth.
for god’s sake, people. pick up a goddamn comic book for once
