Jahnoy LindsayJahnoy is what one might call a comic artist who was never really that into comics. The Brampton, Ontario product is an alumni of the From A Hat Studio collective with Paris Alleyne, (Haven) Jamal Campbell (Naomi) Matt Simas, Te'Shawn Dwyer, (Desert Messiah) and Dylan Burnett (Cosmic Ghost Rider, X-Force). From there, he has gone on to draw for Marvel, starting with a back-up story in Totally Awesome Hulk and then becoming the main artist for She-Hulk's “Jen Walters Must Die” storyline with writer Mariko Tamaki (This One Summer) before going on to release Luke Cage: Everyman as a Marvel Digital Original with writer Anthony Del Col (Kill Shakespeare).But comics were never really his thing, drawing was his thing and what he would draw were anime characters inspired by shows like Naruto. In life, he's a pretty chill and shy kid who mostly keeps to himself, but on the page is where he really feels he can express himself and shine. He tells Aaron that drawing gives him a sense of peace and recounts that breaking into Marvel came down to a healthy competition between From A Hat members to try and score C.B. Cebulski's business card (then one of Marvel's most renowned talent recruiters) during a portfolio review at a convention. A year of sending samples via e-mail later and he had his first mainstream comics art assignment. Soon he found himself learning to draw comics while he was actually drawing comics.Inside the pod: We gain insight into the formation of From A Hat, discuss how to gain the confidence to show a Marvel editor your art, why it's really hard to draw comics, especially at a high level and the importance of finishing over perfection.This episode of Speech Bubble is sponsored by Hairy Tarantula, Adaptdefy and The Amok Podcast Fundraising campaignInstagram - @jahnoylTwitter - @jahnoylJahnoy Lindsay on Deviant ArtBuy Luke Cage: Everyman on ComixologyFrom A Hat StudioFrom A Hat Tumblr@fromahatSponsorsHairy TarantulaAdaptdefyThe Amok Podcast Fundraising Campaign
