So twice now Corey and Yuji have hung out “Corey’s way.” Corey’s capable of being a fair guy, so even if it’s not his thing really he’s willing to give Yuji’s way a chance here.
So Corey and Loren don’t really have much in common. Even within the Applebridge canon they’re removed by the tax brackets of their parents, plus Corey’s like three or four years older than Loren. Still, I thought there could be some fun in highlighting how different they are, especially since Corey recently made acquaintances with someone who’s way more Loren’s type. As for Corey’s partner here, I couldn’t think of anyone tied to Loren who would fit (unfortunately Loren doesn’t have a grandma or anything who’s been introduced), so I instead partnered him with someone I’ve meant to pair him with for a while but never had a good chance to.
This is a Lord Tier commission featuring three of this Lord Tier Subscriber’s favorite characters in the Studio. The idea here was pretty simple, with Yuji and Inosuke catching Ed with a pincer maneuver. They wanted to keep this one relatively tame, focusing on the tension and build-up rather than the down-and-dirty action I typically draw.
So this Scenario is building off of a previous one, featuring Corey’s parents and Nanami. I couldn’t really picture Yuji and Corey interacting the same way Nanami and Max did, however I could picture this. Corey and Yuji have different tastes (although I think Yuji’d be more open to Corey’s type than the inverse) but I thought it’d be cute to pair them with a couple Studio ladies who are connected but pair up well with them. I think this turned out to be a pretty cute little interaction, and I hope y’all will enjoy it.
Last year we started a new Halloween tradition of a highlight comic set in the Studio Halloween party. Like last year, our randomly-selected costume model, Space Beth, takes the center panel while we check in around the party with the rest. I know some characters who appear here may be hard to place, especially in the glory hole panel, and I imagine some will only be identifiable through the tags in the public post. I’m pretty happy with how this comic turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing some of the Studio residents enjoying the spooky season.
So I think if you have two people you spend a lot of time with, it’d be hard to say who you spend more time with unless there was, like, a huge disparity. Rather, I figured Yuji could focus more on using this Ask as an excuse to get them together, since I kinda feel like they wouldn’t share much time all three of them. Both have their own unique dynamics with Yuji, and then when Gojo and Nanami are together they regress to their schoolboy days a bit with Gojo annoying Nanami and trying to get a reaction out of him. So that’s how we got here; I hope it makes sense.
Here’s the third page of Hot Yoga! It took me a little longer than I’m comfortable with to get around to it, but this page kinda transitions us into what’ll be the main meat of the comic in the next page. Our boys seem to be having fun, and I hope y’all are too and will look forward to seeing what they get up to in the next page (whenever that comes out).
I didn’t really like Todo when he was first introduced in Jujutsu Kaisen, but later when he started interacting with Yuji I came around on him. While I don’t really intend to draw much of the big guy, I thought it’d be a shame if we didn’t see him with his “brother” at least once.
Here’s the second page of Hot Yoga, one of two short comics I sold last year to cover an unexpected financial burden. This page picks up the action a little bit, but we’ll move on to the real meat of the comic in the next page.
This is a simple one, but I just kinda thought these two made sense as friendly acquaintances. I had this idea for their interaction I thought might be cute, so I hope y’all like it.
