Dear Publishers and Editors; I can make comics, stories and illustrations for you! I love working in YA storytelling (specifically adventure, horror and coming of age) and character/creature design. email inquiries to Mary . Verhoeven @ gmail . com web: sob-comix.com
character design for three tween girls, looking a little worse for wear. one on the left is brown with curly hair and purple tips, wearing francophone punk clothes. the one in the middle is white with long blond hair, wearing sporty clothes and clutching a large tree branch. the one on the right is asian with brown hair, short bangs and should length hair, wearing comfortable clothes and a ratty messenger bag. they all look tired and concerned.
a black and white illustration of a mummy or ghost looking creature, staring directly at the viewer with bright lamp-like eyes.
character design for punk looking lesbian frog characters! one is scrawny and wearing a leather jacket and smoking, the other is heavy and dressed more like a lumberjack who want to mosh. the big one has her arm around the smaller one, both smiling at the viewer.
a strange hunched over, humanoid creature, skeletal except for it's head which looks like a giant smoke cloud. there are eyes suspended in the smoke cloud, and it's skin looks like it's a hot ember.

So, I wrote a middle-grade kids horror book for @Scholastic ! It’s called SCAREWAVES, and it’s about a group of kids in a small town called Beacon Point in the 90’s being stalked by monsters. There’s a spooky paranormal radio show involved, too! I also did 26 interior drawings!

What was the comic that really got you into comics? Not your first comic, but the comic that pulled you in for life. Can’t pick 1, but these 4 really made an immense impact

Gendel was another BMV find, and take a wild guess why I picked it up. But I had NEVER seen comic art like what Dave Cooper did here. The details are so fun you can't stop looking , and the rendering is jawdropping. Every panel a painting.

Lait Frappé is SO BEAUTIFUL. I picked it up on a whim from BMV the first year I moved to the city, and had no idea what it was. It blew me away and I kept opening it up again to look at it. All of Castrée's work is wonderful, but this hold a special place in my heart

SiP (a small box set) was given to be by my brother and I think the first non-cape, non manga comic I read (outside of the funies in the paper). I've never read the full run (I should) but I LOVE the characters, and the lettering is a real goalpost for me.
