Here Be Voodoo

Truths and Lies 50

Do not worry (I’m saying that a lot, ain’t I?) they are only sleeping.

Truths and Lies 56

And this is the end of the chapter !
See you next week for chapter 6 : Blood and Ashes!

Blood and Ashes : Cover art

This is the last chapter of Here Be Voodoo, before a small epilogue.

Read at your own risk because, oh boy, I think this is going to be the worst chapter horror wise…

Blood and Ashes 02

The Witcher has this infuriating habit of using the dead as relay to talk to people, instead of walking up to them.
Laziness, we can all relate.

Blood and Ashes 03

Be very happy that, just like Gui, you don’t have the sound.
Because Viviane / Aisha is quick on the curse, especially on her ex.
(Non, Gui can’t really see or hear ghosts. The Witcher can, because he is dead on a technicality)

Blood and Ashes 04

Yuuuup, Aisha is trying to burn him up beyond death.
Strong woman, I tell you. Who do you think Sunday got it from?

Blood and Ashes 05

Gui, you know very well he doesn’t like the first two letters of this word…

Blood and Ashes 08

I may be a bit biased (I wrote and draw this comics during eight years after all) but I think this is the most beautiful proof of love in their… er… relationship.

Blood and Ashes 09

Don’t worry, the tears of blood are.. er… normal for lack of a better word.

Blood and Ashes 10

What Naima doesn’t say is that this situation is the best outcome out of all the possibilities.
They did well on that one: Nobody died!
…
Well, nobody is deader than they should be…

Blood and Ashes 11

Between the one who doesn’t say a word and the one who speak in riddles, Trez is done with the two sisters.

Blood and Ashes 13

He could have walk in calmly and thoroughly explain the situations to the villagers, but: No time.

Blood and Ashes 14

The Baron know everything, see everything, hear everything ! (also, I forgot to justify that part in the script, ok?)

Blood and Ashes 15

You will notice the Baron is a perfect gentleman as soon there is a young lady in the vicinity.
Yes, his wife know.

Blood and Ashes 17

One of the hardest things I had to balance when I was writing Here Be Voodoo was Naima and Sadiah’s limitations of powers.

If Naima would have been able to see the past and future without the limit of her memory and trance, and if Sadiah could talk to any dead wherever she was, the story would have only last a few pages.

Blood and Ashes 19

Yeah, well, Sunday being the worthy daughter of her parents is precisely the point of the comics.

Blood and Ashes 20

The difference in body language between Viviane and Sadiah was very fun to draw XD

Blood and Ashes 21

The relationship between Viviane and the Witcher was even more toxic than Ulf and Guilemma’s…
But I didn’t trust my skills to depict it in more details (also, I’m aro ace, (fictitious ) toxic love relationships just feel so illogical to me ^^; )

Blood and Ashes 23

Did you miss them?
I did !
As a reminder, left to right: Talkative, Teddy, back to us is Peepers, one of Talkative ‘sister’, then Strawberry and Monkeysock, Deafpot, Talkative other ‘sister’ and finally, Noleg.

Blood and Ashes 25

Despite the years, there are some things that never change with brothers.
The fact that neither of them listen to the other started at the beginning.

Blood and Ashes 26

Listen, Eshu, for her defense, she kinda had her mind elsewhere the last few hours…
Also, just wait till she realize was this mean about you and her.

Blood and Ashes 27

Finally, someone is able to explain morality to Sunday.

He may not have the time to good into the finer details, though…

Blood and Ashes 28

So yeah, I know, you can »‘t really tell with all these flames, but I tried to make sure Eshu’s body and the Witcher’s look like each other.

I’m a masochist.
