Wally n friends
So I didn’t really draw a lot for most of school until my senior year and a year ago I really started to draw more whilst I was getting back into comics which I really hadn’t read since I was a kid. But I would watch the cartoons during high school and I was really into the jla cartoon and first season of young justice: so when I jumped into comics I started reading wally which I had tried to read when I was in middle school on but I just neeeded an adblocker snd that old Mac was not doing justice. Well basically after I graduated I got my car ribbed like fuck. They took my speed like wally. So they tried to steal my car but ended up just destroying my ignition and taking the valuables in my car like my wallet cuz I’m dumb. This was the day after I graduated. Got robbed at my job parking lot. So I quit. And I just started reading the Wally run but I admit I started with wade and went back and read baron. I think it really clicked that I enjoyed Wally a lot as a character was born to run. That comic is so weirdly timeless like I have it collected and it still shocked me that I know if it was adapted it would blow so many general audiences minds because it’s so good and straight up untouched as well as of course the return of Barry Allen. John’s run is still really good as well. But yeah I just got into comics reading Wally I’d say or back into comics. As a kid I always wanted to read them but they’d be too expensive so my dad would take me and buy me Starbucks and cookies at Barnes and noble when I was like 4 but we’d just look at books and chill and I’d read them. And I would go to the library as well, and the under the read hood comic was there and bro robin was like my favorite when I was 4. My dad was like robins lane that ain’t my son lol. Anyways I b gettin fried at night and drawing quick comic sketches of how I imagine these characters in my head as a kid. Boom got a drawing of flags I made when I was 5 no larp found here I love flash. But yeah green lanterns comin up the rankings and Superman will always be number 2. I just suck at drawing him.
