Been saved lately? Panda Girls, a secret cosmic society, knows that heroes are the anomaly. Idiots in peril, that’s the hero’s currency. The world is full of them. (Idiots - obviously.)
There’s no true doctrine. In terms of a cosmic joke, the gods are leading. Human life is absurd, unless you follow this singular equation: All life’s a panda – find your balance between black and white.
Sawyer, an internet-educated hottie, is resurrected into this cosmic maelstrom of supernatural action comedy. Death wasn’t so bad, the after life isn’t so good. The balance between eternal enslavement, and complete destruction, is a giant robot panda.

It's been 6 months but I'm back working on the Panda Girls anime / manga pretty much full-time now. I was helping out a friend of mine, Dave Royer, with his business called SAGE Creatives, and we may see more developments with Dave and Panda Girls in the near future.
Jumping back into the Panda Girls project was a little odd and exciting. Odd in the way that I felt distanced visually, (Crom and I have maintained story meetings consistently during my hiatus), and exciting in that sense where you know time away always brings with it a new perspective. For my first post, I didn't want to make a splash. More just easing into it again, and giving myself time to find my stride.
Here's a couple of thumbnails, (in no particular order), to help me feel out the 10 page teaser. Jumping around to events/moments that inspired, and tried to catch them with the simplest shapes.
