From an upcoming Sunday strip

Spread the love

A preliminary sketch from an upcoming Sunday strip (assuming it gets approved). This is Susan Garcia, one of the main characters. Rumor has it her looks and some of her personality traits are inspired by my wife (man, I have to get used to saying that – I’ve been calling her my “girlfriend” for 6 years!), Laura Bustamante. I have no idea how I got this lucky.

I’ll post sketches here from time to time, just for those of you who take the time to check out the Candorville site.

    I think Susan’s the most well-rounded (no pun intended) female character in comics today. She’s strong yet vulnerable. She’s sensual yet serious at work. She seems to have her stuff together but she’s still insecure about it. Thank you for giving us one of comics’ first realistic portrayals of modern women!
