The Umbrella Academy
I just started reading The Umbrella Academy comics and this is a drawing I did in tribute to the book. The character featured here, the White Violin, is actually one of the less fleshed out and, so far, less featured members of the group, but the brilliance of her design is so iconic that it's hard to not want to draw her. I'm sure even if many of you haven't read the books you've seen her image looking at you from a comic store shelf and found it hard not to think "What is that?" Her design makes the comic look like something that has already long been established, even when it was brand new, so I give many kudos to the artist and writer for that.

WONDERFUL! When I first read the comic and she was introduced I was immediately in love with her design and its cool to see that it inspired you to make something so beautiful. I cant say enough geekish things, its so cool.
excellent! lord you need to submit some work to darkhorse, this is as great as anything i've seen in Umbrella Academy (great series!)
something about the brushwork in her arms that is incredible to me
Really nice work! You should be working in the industry.
Glen, you keep blowing me away dude! Freaking awesome!
I keep teetering back and forth with reading this comic. Either way, I love love love this piece. Excellent work.
