Let's goooooo
We're gonna try to name comics that we BOTH love AND that we talk about a lot, lol
Let's start with the Gillen/McKelvie Young Avengers.

(We have a running joke on One More Year that whenever we can't figure out how to do something, we just ask how Jamie McKelvie would do it and then... do that!)
Speaking of superhero comics we CAN'T STOP RIPPING OFF, what about Hawkeye???
Continuing things we're shamelessly ripping off, we're stealing a lot of our beloved SAGA's aesthetic for some very cool [redacted] title pages in One More Year....
We've also had some great convos recently about the delicious constrain-y "bondage" of the 9-panel grid and uhhh... actual bondage bondage, lol

Anyway, here's Mister Miracle!
We both love Check, Please! It's been a big influence on our current project (and the next volume is kickstarting right now, hey!)
Comic that Megan wants Meghan to love (but she only thinks is okay): The Private Eye

Comic that Meghan wants Megan to love (but she only thinks is okay): Global Frequency
Allie Brosch is the GOAT GOAT GOAT
We stan FUN HOME!!!!
We liked LAZARUS an awful awful awful lot...
We also love our baby Kamala!

(We wish they'd made stuff like this when we were teenage girls...)
SEX CRIMINALS! We're going to say it's been a MAJOR INFLUENCE!!!!!
