I'm a writer. I read a lot of comics. My friend Jojo is an artist. She doesn't read any comics.

At lunch, she draws super heroes from memory. Her memory is not always very good.

As you look at these drawings, I can not stress enough that Jojo is a professional artist, and a full grown woman. It's important to remember that.

Anonymous asked: What do you mean by Jojo is a "professional artist"? What does one do to become a "professional artist"?

I asked Jojo How one becomes a professional artist.

She said, “You go to an office and sit at a desk and draw and hate yourself. But they pay you, so you come back each day.”

That’s probably an overly bleak way of phrasing it, but basically correct.
