This week on the Sindiecate: Whiteout by Greg Rucka And Steve Lieber!
OK, Steve is one of my best, best friends. Five days a week, we are a spitball’s length from each other in our studio, Periscope. (I am pretty sure that distance has been tested and confirmed.) So when Whiteout came around as the weekly Sindiecate theme, rather than think about what to draw, I asked Steve what moment from the series he thought would be cool to see.
Steve: Well, there’s this bit in Whiteout: Melt where Carrie and this Russian dude fall down a deep, white crevasse, and then later they get it on in an igloo.
Me: OK, then.
I left out the igloo part.
This scene anticipates Steve’s more recent work Underground, written by our homey Jeff Parker. In it, a lady Park Ranger falls down a deep, black cave with her male partner the day after they get it on in her apartment. That’s pretty much where the similarities end, though.
