Maybe it's a weird comment, but as the Chinese guy who commissioned a Jubilee from you last San Francisco Comic Con, I really appreciate how you preserve the Asian features in Asian characters. A lot of artists tend to de-emphasize or even just pure whitewash non-White characters, to the point where characters like Conner Hawke have totally lost their racial identities over the years. Thanks for keeping it real, Paolo!
ReplyDeleteThanks! (it helps having a wife that forces me to keep it real)
