"The best use yet of Jill's wonderful painting and drafting skills, SCARY GODMOTHER is a brilliant example of where our medium can go. I couldn't be more jealous of the format and of Jill for showing us the way it can be done. A beautiful and ambitious piece, just like the real Ms. Thompson herself."--- Alex Ross (creator of Marvels and Kingdom Come)

"If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance."
-- George Bernard Shaw
