"The Disastrous Wrangle Island Expedition"

"The Disastrous Wrangle Island Expedition"

Last year I worked on this super graphic novel for Capstone Books. https://www.capstonepub.com

It's the story of the wonderfully named Inupait seamstress, Ada Blackjack, who, in 1921 joined a group of four white men who wanted to establish a trading post on Wrangel Island in the freezing Arctic Ocean. The explorers were stranded on the island when their return ship was forced to turn back due to ice. Things began to go pear shaped pretty sharpish! I felt bitterly cold from start to finish drawing this one..
