Comments by JunePurrr
“This scene introduces us to two of the other major characters in the story. Aaron (the lieutenant) is Clove’s handsome personal bodyguard and childhood friend. He is often shown to be much more sympathetic to Clove’s feelings and her wellbeing outside her role as the Azure Dragon. Nouren, the purple-eyed Guard Captain, was originally designed on the spot as a background character, but fans liked him so much I decided to give him a bigger role in the story.”
Oni Press ‘SubZero Volume 1’ by Junepurrr hits stores on September 25th. Making it possible for fans of the webtoon and those unfamiliar to share in Junepurrr’s vision:
“SubZero is a love letter to fantasy stories, palace dramas and romance, created as an escape during a very low period in my life. While the characters possess fantastical Dragon powers, the story deals with themes of duty, sacrifice, and the true strength that lies beneath a veil of fangs and scales. It is my greatest hope that readers of SubZero will find the escape and excitement I felt when I created it.”
