Older, wiser, and deadlier: Nava embarks upon her quest for vengeance in Kontra: Against Evil #2! (coming this year I hope) I commissioned @borgdraws for this piece to use in my business card.
I was somewhat unprepared for Komiket last November and kept being ask if I had a "calling card" so I figured I'd commission one 😂 Thanks Borg! So if yall see me again at an event this year I'll definitely have a card for you this time.
You can read Kontra: Against Evil for free and uncensored on my Substack. Link in my bio 📕
Was so fortunate to be selected for the 2nd batch of graphic novels to be published by Philippine Comic Festival (PICOF) along with super talented filipino creators. Just want to share a key art I did for my entry, titled Endangered. So pumped to share the whole thing with you when it’s all done!

Apologies for the inactivity and sudden hiatus. Had to deal with family stuff and serious burnout during the early part of the year. Life just keeps surprising you in different ways, right?

First sample copies are printed! I started sharing Issue 1 of Malaya with a few friends and family members and am so proud of how it’s turned out! We’re still making some tweaks to the cover have been testing out different paper styles. Can’t wait for everyone to see the final version soon 😁
