“The first scene I imagined for this first issue […] is set in the main ballroom of the house of Mistress Mambo Erzulie Frèda of Dahomey. She is the loa (or lwa, or orisha, or deity) of love and luxury.

[…]

Erzulie sits in state on her throne in the center. I asked for her to be in mermaid form, holding her mirror. I was also adamant that she should have a goodly amount of meat on her bones. A skinny mermaid is a chilly mermaid.”
