#that discusses how plagues cross boundaries and lines. and its all very alcibiades

I love your Iliad fanarts 😳 they are do thoughtful and symbolic it captures the story perfectly. Have you considered making comic about the Peloponnese war?

thank you so much! and yes and no re: the Peloponnesian war. There's two separate 10-30 page comic scripts that I've written, and a half finished comic about Alcibiades, and something else about the horrifying nature of Sparta, but both of them are missing something for me to sink my teeth into, so I'm not really inclined to finish them right now.

also I'd have to do a lot of research on military equipment and boats to finish any of it and I just. eurghh. I just finished looking up boats for the Cassius comic, and I'm pretty sure all of that information slid right off of me like water on a smooth rock.

#the alcibiades one is interesting but it put me in a bad mood the last time i worked on it #cause hes kind of like this plague allegory. theres a book about the war called the plague of war. and a different book #that discusses how plagues cross boundaries and lines. and its all very alcibiades #but if i think too much about how many people died as a direct result of his actions its just. oof. #ask tag
