I like how post-it note drawings can translate to digital illustration fairly easily once I figured out a good work flow.

So the secret origin of the Saturday Tales comics is that they come from a small coloring book I drew for my friends and family's kids during the first Halloween of the pandemic. I liked the characters enough that I rolled them into their own comic and it became my comfort food project.

The first comic was a "Halloween Special" that I kind of just wrote on the fly while thumbing out the pages. Originally I had ghosts as both the protagonist's side and the antagonist's side of story. It confused the plot and stake a bit so on the two year anniversary of the comic I went full Special Edition on the comic. I reinked, recolored, tightened up the dialog, and patched up some continuity issues with stories that had came out after the fact. That is where this character comes in.

So the antagonist ghosts got replaced by a vampire, clown, and this character Molly the sugar sprite. And that is kind of it. Molly a character that I technically have a back story for but I follow the rule that nothing is set in stone until it hits the page but by the very nature of Molly's existence I apparently don't follow that rule. 🤷‍♀️
