Barbette, designed by Reilly Brown, is the fourth and final member of THE COLLECTIVE. A Tyler Durden type who hunts down online ne’er-do-wells, and is in public life actually a delicate mouse with an office job. She’s impulsive, brash, and is always the first one into a fight, but as she grows through the series she becomes the protective sort, looking after Diaspora.
Created by Leaping Tall Buildings editor Christopher Irving and this extremely lucky guy, you can read more about THE COLLECTIVE in Drawn Word #2, currently available for a dollar.

I’m over the wall, dancing on top of the wall, spraying champagne, excited about this, because this is—well—it’s my first writing gig! I don’t think I can thank Chris enough in his kind consideration and approaching me regarding this project and, seriously, I was so excited when he sent me these designs I nearly jumped into traffic.
Over the next couple of days, we will get further in depth, but I sincerely hope that you all will check this out, because most of you very kind readers know that I’ve been working and building towards writing comics and with Chris’s kind shepherding, I sincerely hope you’ll check out my freshman effort, coming very soon.
