Description One final comic experiment for 2010!

*Season 6 SPOILER WARNING! Stop reading if you haven't watched the mid-season finale of Supernatural.*




It’s a bittersweet victory. Dean has his Sammy back, but at what price?

Well, it looks like Sam got his soul back at the end of episode 11. And because he didn’t sleep for a year and a half while he was soulless, I decided to make a comic about Sam finally getting some sleep like a normal human being. I would imagine Dean is relieved that RoboSam is gone but also worried about the state of his little brother’s soul. Why else would he be awake at 5:30am?

Song lyrics scribbled throughout the motel room (and on Dean’s shirt) are bits and pieces from ‘Lullaby’ by Assemblage 23.
I know that not all monitors are calibrated the same, so here are the lyrics in case you can’t read them:

(panel 1)
May you find solace in the gentle arms of sleep
Despite the wolves outside your door

(panel 2)
In time you will see them all as harmless
And their idle threats easy to ignore

(panel 3)
And if ever fate should choose to smite you
Stand your ground, never walk away

(panel 4)
Please don't ever let the world defeat you
Don't get buried in its decay

(panel 5)
Return to me
When slumber's fog has lifted
Return to me
Stronger than before

Technical stuffs:
This comic was painted entirely in Photoshop 6 using a Wacom graphire 3 pen tablet. Various screencaps from the show and my own stock photography were used as references.

Progress shots for this comic are here sta.sh/026mwdi38a77

Supernatural belongs to Eric Kripke & the CW
Artwork belongs to me :3

I really like the song lyrics. You make it look so real, I mean the nightstand and bed with the words carved in. And then Dean's shirt were its wrinkled you wrote the words like that. It's amazing.

My favorite panel is the one where the words are written on the back, the fall of the shirt and how the words shift looks so natural.

The incorporation of the lyrics is gorgeous, looking like another hallucination and your moody lighting and atmosphere is spot on

the genre of music (for "Lullaby" by Assemblage 23) doesn't really suit Supernatural but i thought the lyrics were too good to pass-up!
