DescriptionAmong the many highlights of IC3 was getting to meet Sean from Athenaeum Comic Art. None of the artists Sean represents were in attendance; he was flying solo, which afforded us a fair amount of time to chat about art, comics, movies, and other interests we seemed to have in common.While chatting with Sean I flipped through the portfolios he had with him featuring an array of work from the his stable of artists. When I reached this page from 'The Stranger' I had to stop and take a closer look. The delicate linework which, in my mind, was reminiscent of the work of P. Craig Russell, really struck me. I implored Sean to tell me about the artist and what this page was from. 'The Stranger' is a comic by Rosemary Valero-O'Connell in partnership and distributed by the Ann Arbor District Library for A2CAF in 2023. It is a poignant story about the loss of a loved one as well as the memories of that person. Rosemary's art can be purchased at: https://www.athenaeumcomicart.com/ Her comics can be found at her personal site: https://www.hirosemaryhello.com/ Her instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hirosemaryhello/ Social/Sharing |

Okay, two things I have to mention about this. First, the second I laid eyes on it, I thought "Ah, this is very P. Craig Russell-esque!"
Second, if this comic is distributed by the District Library in Ann Arbor, Michigan, then GO BLUE, baby!

Hits hard if you've ever suffered a loss of a loved one. The most intense memories and the biggest regrets will fill the the thoughts of your everyday routine.

That's lovely! I also thought P. Craig Russel (specifically some of the Elric and Dr. Strange he did) as soon as I saw the thumbnail!

Sean only had this page and one other at IC3, but I didn't buy this at the show as I had already run through my budget. A week or two later, he posted on Insagram that this was the last page he had available and FOMO kicked in hard lol.
