Secret Skull





Some character sketches I did a while ago for Mystery Society, of Steve Niles and Chuck BB's character Secret Skull.

It's very very rare in comics to have a heroine who isn't supposed to be even a little bit sexy. Even badass chicks like Tank Girl are thin, white and pretty; and Big Bertha, the fat superhero, is of course a supermodel by day. Secret Skull is a bony ghoul in a skull mask, who everyone thinks is a man. I love her.

So glad to be ordering Mystery Society. This is a great looking character. Love the design and what a great name. Can't wait!

Totally agree it's quite refreshing to see a character that defies that cliche. You've really represented her well, she looks like quite the badass!

I liked this character in her first story, but I just love your work on her and the rest of the Mystery Society characters. Thanks for helping make this series rock so hard. :)
