Today in “the sentiment is a good one but under the circumstances the punctuation could potentially cause confusion”: just to clarify, the story in question does not, repeat, does not involve a romantic relationship between Sherlock Holmes and HP Lovecraft.
well not with THAT attitude it doesn’t
I mean, if you WANT it to have meant that….there’s always…fanfiction.
hello! I recently found this rad app called “CamScanner”, a mobile app for android and iOS
what does this app do? well, basically it imitates a scanner, so even if you don’t have one, you can take real cool pictures of your drawings!
for this to work, i suggest you take a picture of your entire paper / sketchbook / etc. The app will automatically crop your picture and come out with something like this:
(sometimes it wont be too accurate, but that can be easily fixed by moving the frame yourself)
once scanned, the app will make it so your drawing looks like this:
(the app will have some presets, so you might want to mess around with those. OR you can mess with the settings yourself to get a look you desire)
this can be really helpful if you plan to color your traditional piece on a computer, or something similar.
this can even work with colored drawing, if you’d like!

edited with CamScanner:
if you mess with the settings yourself, i bet you could get the picture to look better, as i did this with the presets.
Brought to life by writer Leah Williams, artist Filipe Andrade, and with a cover by Jeff Dekal, Illyana Rasputin enters a new reality on October 31.
Before she was Magik, Illyana was just a kid whom Limbo
chewed up and spit out seven years older. So it’s no surprise that, at
15, she wants nothing to do with the X-Men…nothing to do with the New
Mutants…and nothing to do with her own powers. It’s not even
surprising that she runs away…but where—and who—she ends up? Well,
that’s something you’ve never seen before.
“Illyana Rasputin deserves better,” explains book editor Annalise Bissa. “As
much as we all love a character who’s been aged up, down, grown up
under the thumb of demons, watched her parents die, died herself, come
back, been evil, been good again, had more power changes than you can
shake a stick at…any X-Fan might start to wonder who Magik would be in
a world where her mutation isn’t ruled by these crazy ups and
downs—where she has the chance to embrace her power early and grow from
there, this is the book for you. If you like Magik, magic, or any other
word for all things mystical and mysterious and maybe a little bit
murderous, read WHAT IF? MAGIK #1.”
Holy hell, but that is some cover.
Do yourself (and me) a favor. Pre-order this. I doubt shops will order big on these oneshots and you might not find it otherwise. More importantly: Marvel is putting out a solo Illyana book. This is a oneshot. But if it does decently, you can bet your soulsword it will make them consider putting her name on more.
Bonus: Interior art by Felipe Andrade of Secret Wars: Siege (aka Leah and Illyana Eloping Spectacular) fame!
To whet our appetite a little more, some insight into the thoughts of the writer:
Andrade is a terrible artist but damn, an Illyana solo! Finally!! And lol, the name of the writer is funny haha
