Sacred Bodies, by Ver

[lb_lee]

hungryghosts told us about this really beautiful comic, Sacred Bodies by Ver! It's about a human woman who marries a bird person for political reasons, only for them to discover they have more in common with each other than expected. It's full of joyous nonsexual intimacy, a beautiful soft palette of orange and blue, and everything about the bird people's design is delightful, from how incredibly looooong they are when they unfold (and how that folding reflects psychological constriction) to the blobs of fluff that are the hatchlings.

Super glad they told me about this comic! I hope it comes out in print one day so I can buy it on paper; it seems a perfect cozy bedtime read.

Oh wow, this looks absolutely gorgeous! I too wish that it was in print format... the watercolour style looks like it'd be so juicy to hold in my hands.

What a lovely recommendation!

It is SO gorgeous and if printed well would be such a joy to behold! I really hope I get to, one day!
