I couldn’t help but reference Cry for Justice and Rise of Arsenal (despite how unpopular those twists were for the character!) But I think he transcends the setback and can work wonders with the hook! Glad you like the designs regardless. 😅

My character designs for the Titaneers, a formidable crew of familiar faces reimagined for next week’s free-to-read “Aquaman: Yo-Ho-Hold Onto Your Hook!” From the 1965 debut of “Teen Titans” to “Young Justice”, “Titans” and beyond, I’m grateful to make a small contribution that that rich legacy!

In recorded history, has a dog ever actually eaten homework?

We had a back-and-forth! A handful of characters were initially requested in a brief and then I added a ton more (and then we had to trim because the composition was getting a bit too crowded.) I think we arrived at a happy medium in the end.

Happy Pride! Also this is a crazy coincidence but for the palette of my image, I literally sampled some of Paulina Ganucheau’s colors for that WW Pride cover! 😁

Happy June! Here’s a Pride Parade on Danny the Street, commissioned by DC Comics! I had a blast drawing this and only wish I’d been able to fit in more characters! 😂

I wish she was in it too! I had a whole list that was more than triple the number of figures you see here, including Diana! We just didn’t have enough space in the composition, and chose to prioritize some of the lesser-known characters for this image. 😅

Thanks David! Your gorgeous covers were part of my mood board while I was designing!

Hold onto your hooks, AQUAMAN is coming to DC Comics GO! Jackson, Ha'Wea, and Dolphin set sail for a madcap pirate adventure as they explore the Dee Sea. Grateful for my talented crew of Niky Lelapi, @andrewdrilon.bsky.social, and Bradley Clayton! Look for it in July! www.dc.com/blog/2025/05...
