The slow walk and aggressive stretching of the billy club is something so lethal...
And that show-off twirl...

You come from a long line of very special women.
All the way from Chafa herself.
They have carried the fire.
They were the protectors of their people.
They fought for their family.
Now, it’s your turn.

Finally got around to illustrating a piece inspired by Echo.
I’ve also just dropped my first portrait tutorial lesson on Patreon. You can learn more and join by following the link below.

The way the Echo show portrays communication is phenomenal. For a deaf/hoh person, sign language is the prominent form of communication. Every person that truly cares for Maya incorporates sign into conversation. Which further proves the point that Fisk doesn’t care. He starts with interpreter. A completely separate person to communicate for him. Then creates a piece of technology that does the same thing. But he never learns sign. He never actually puts in the effort to actually communicate with her.

I’ve only had Maya Lopez for two shows but if anything happened to her I’d kill everyone then myself.

Dude, Echo was so good. I can't remember the last time I cried like that over character relationships. The show sets out to be its own thing and it delivers so hard on making it wonderful and unique while keeping in the vastly different tone Fisk has.
Straight up, Fisk is shown coming in to colonize a beautiful native community and steal their child and the show actually addresses how they handle that.
I highly recommend it - especially if you loved the tone of the Netflix shows. Take that tone and add a badass deaf native woman and her community.
*and as a request, it's great people love that daredevil is in it too, but could you post about his appearance in the show PLUS Maya's story, too? Ya know, please?

saw haters mad at the ending of echo show, thinking its not convincing enough (???) and not very R rated. but it IS a show abt maya. maya choosing her ancestors, her ppl instead of kingpins criminal empire IS decolonization. she chose to remove the kinpins influence on her. she chose another way than violence, the only way she has learned. she moved beyond violence and vengeance, she chose healing, she chose to grieve her mother and her father properly instead of just entering the endless cycle of violence again. the ending is NOT abt kingpin is abt HER.
stop making everything and anything abt white men
