One Punch Academia

I have loved cartoons since I can remember and the older I've gotten, the more I have loved creating mashup stories where heroes and cartoon universes collide or interact! The more I get into writing my own books as well, the more I want to write and create stories and fan fiction is an amazing place to do that in!

The way I see these universes connecting is that Metal Knight from One Punch Man finds the hair that Saitama lost from his evolved state and makes a serum that he disseminates into the water. This experiment ends up giving quirks to 80% of the population! All For One comes from a higher dose being given to the first test subject, and All Might is a descendant of that first subject. From a heroic organization to a hero school, it doesn't seem too far a stretch... what was a further stretch would be if down the timeline, we saw Naruto  in is the distant future and kakegenkai end up being quirks passed down through families... but that's a whole other conversation!

This Sesame Street illustration took me longer than I wanted, but that's that Daddy Life! This is also why I created this illustration. We celebrated my daughter's first year of life in a March and I wanted to add a special touch to help honor her entry into our lives. This piece is dedicated to her and the fun she has with these characters on tv and in her life. This is the first piece of art I've done since she's been alive that she actively engaged with and didn't just look at... so that makes me extremely proud.

I've added the steps to this entry on Instagram (thelearningcurv) so you can see the process that goes into creating something like this. There are 3 steps that I left out but it can give you a general idea about what it takes to put this together. I hope you enjoy!
